The Ribby Experience: Bridgeport Rib House offers more than just food; it's a community hub. My visit on a Monday night found a lively, multi-generational crowd enjoying free bingo, adding to the fun and welcoming atmosphere.
The Cheesesteak Breakdown:
- The Roll: The cheesesteak comes on a "bready," non-seeded roll. While I usually prefer a seeded roll, in this case, the breadiness was a positive.It provided the necessary structure to contain the remarkably juicy steak.
- The Meat: The star of the show here is the juicinessof the meat.This is a cheesesteak that's bursting with flavor and moisture.
- The Cheese: A "great cheese melt" indicates proper preparation and a generous application of cheese. The review doesn't specify the type of cheese,but a good melt is essential for a satisfying cheesesteak.
- The Onions: The fried onions added a "very good flavor," contributing to the overall balance of the sandwich.
- The Chips: A side of chips is included, and the reviewer notes that they "did a great job balancing the juiciness" of the cheesesteak, providing a welcome textural contrast.
A Cheesesteak That Surprises:
My initial cautious optimism about The Ribby's cheesesteak was well-founded. This is a sandwich that delivers on flavor and texture. The juicy meat, the well-melted cheese, the flavorful onions, and the surprisingly effective bready roll all combine to create a very enjoyable cheesesteak experience. It's a testament to the fact that sometimes,the best cheesesteaks can be found in unexpected places.My earlier visit was clouded by laughter and beer.
