Geno's does put in more effort 2 attract attention and customers. Flashy neon signs and celebrity pics around the store area nice touch. on my way back from Virginia, I wanted 2 try Genos since I tried Pats on the way down. First of all, Genos staff is nicer, they are more tolerant of hessitant customers, confused peeps or anyone with a couple of Qs. Usually has a shorter line than Pats so u will get ur food faster. Just like Pats, ur cheese steak will b ready in a mere seconds after u order. Menus are basically identically 2 Pats. price is also nearly the same. When it comes down to the cheese steak itself, it is very good. It just falls a lil short of the taste of Pats. Pats and Genos seems 2 b like the Lan EVO vs WRX STI, EVO is generally accepted as a lil better but pretty close. i dont know why im comparing cheese steaks with rally cars, it just seemed like a very accurate if not odd metaphor. If any of yall think otherwise, let me know. In conclusion, i also think Genos avg score is 2 low. It is very good in its own right, but got tuff competion on the other side of the street. Overall though, I think they have executed a very successful business model. props 2 Geno's, but they r #2 on the block.
