Big Dave's Cheesesteaks, Cheesesteak restaurant in Downtown Atlanta, United States.
Big Dave's Cheesesteaks is a restaurant in Downtown Atlanta focused on Philadelphia-style cheesesteaks made with chopped seasoned ribeye, melted cheese, and toppings served on Amoroso's rolls. The menu also offers chicken, salmon, and vegetarian options, and sandwiches come in three sizes.
The restaurant was founded by Dave Waller, who grew up eating cheesesteaks in Philadelphia and later opened his first location in Atlanta to share that food with a new audience. The brand grew over time and added a location inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium, bringing it closer to sports and concert crowds.
The cheesesteak is a sandwich style that comes from Philadelphia, where it has been a street food staple for generations, and this restaurant brings that tradition to Atlanta. Regulars order with confidence, knowing the menu by heart, while first-timers often take a moment to study the board before choosing their toppings.
There are several locations in Atlanta, so it is worth checking which one is closest to where you are staying or what you plan to do that day. The stadium location tends to be very busy on event days, so arriving early or leaving after the rush helps.
Alongside the main sandwiches, the menu features egg rolls filled with cheesesteak ingredients, mixing the flavors of a Philadelphia classic with the shape of an Asian snack. This combination does not appear on many American restaurant menus and tends to surprise first-time visitors.
