PJ's Steaks(Fortitude Valley) 88 Creek Street, Brisbane City, Queensland 4115
About the Business
Welcome to PJ's Steaks, located in the heart of Fortitude Valley, Brisbane City. Our establishment is not just a restaurant; it is a point of interest for all food lovers seeking a unique and mouthwatering experience.
The story of PJ's Steaks dates back to the early 1930s when Pat, tired of the same old meals, decided to try something different. During lunchtime, he sent his younger brother Harry to fetch him some steak from the local butcher's. Pat then chopped up the steaks on his grill and placed them on a roll. Little did he know that this simple creation would change his life forever.
A local cab driver, who happened to be a friend of Pat's, was curious about what he was eating and insisted on trying it. After just one bite, the cab driver was convinced that Pat should abandon hotdogs and focus on selling this delicious steak sandwich instead. And so, PJ's Steaks was born.
PJ, the founder of our establishment, first encountered the famous Philly cheesesteak while studying in the USA. Inspired by its authentic flavors, he embarked on a global quest to find the perfect spot to introduce this culinary masterpiece. After searching Europe, Asia, and New Zealand, PJ ultimately chose Australia. Why? Because Aussies have a deep love for meat, and their reputation for quality cuts made it the perfect destination. Moreover, PJ knew that there was nothing like his grilled subs in Australia.
Our main attraction at PJ's Steaks is our grilled subs. Each sub is served on a freshly baked 8" Italian roll, ensuring a perfect balance of flavors and textures. We offer a variety of cheese selections, including American Cheese, Provolone, Cheddar Cheese, and even the bold and tangy Stinky Cheese (Sharp Provolone). Whatever your preference, we guarantee a taste sensation that will leave you craving more.
To capture the essence of our establishment, we have included some stunning pictures taken by the talented photographers at Up In The Attic. These images showcase the mouthwatering beauty of our grilled subs and will surely entice you to visit us.
So, whether you are a local looking for a unique dining experience or a traveler seeking an authentic taste of Australia, PJ's Steaks is the place to be. Join us and indulge in the flavors that have captivated taste buds for decades.

"Finally finding a legit orginal philly chessesteak place in AUS ... wasn't disappointed at all, amazing flavours and awesome fast service .... will be back again"
"Pretty good tasting cheesesteaks, would definitely go again. The only thing is, they aren’t near as loaded as what the pictures in the shop suggest. My friend and I both had triple cheesesteaks and they were a bit small for around $14."
"Desperately looking for a decent Bahn Mi. I stumbled upon PJ's steak where they offered an asian alternate. Chicken teriyaki roll. Verdict.. very filling though I struggled to taste the teriyaki sauce perhaps there was too much mayo."
"Super amazing cheesesteak subs! Worth every cent! This is truly a great little place to go. Food was excellent. Great photo PJ with lord mayor on the front wall. Never had a steak roll as good as these! So good."
"Absolutely delicious Philly cheesesteak in Brisbane's West End. Everything on the menu looked awesome but picked the basic to try it out. Staff were friendly and food came out quickly. So good and can't wait to come back."
