SICKLERVILLE — In an era where even the humble sandwich has been elevated to gourmet status, it takes something special to truly stand out.
Gouldsburger’s does exactly that, delivering excellence on every front.
For many South Jersey residents, subs and hoagies can be part of everyday life. Cheesesteaks, in particular, are a region staple. Today, thanks to YouTube and the explosion of food vlog culture, legendary cheesesteaks are hunted down, sampled, and reviewed with near-religious devotion.
It was through that very digital discovery process Dine-In reviewers heard about Gouldsburger’s, and their much-talked-about cheesesteaks.
FRNJ recently made a deliberate stop at Gouldsburger’s Sicklerville location, located in a strip mall off Berlin-Cross Keys Road. We ordered cheesesteaks, and after one bite, we knew this was something we had to share.
Upon our visit, we were graciously served up a few of their top sellers. Superior to a classic cheesesteak, Gouldsburger’s delivered what we can honesty say is the best cheesesteak we’ve ever tried. In our opinion, outstanding and by far one of the best the region has to offer best describes our experience.
Made with prime grade beef, cooked to perfection, then tossed on the grill with Cooper sharp cheese, sautéed chopped onion and in house-baked rolls, Gouldsburger’s cheesesteak constructed a perfect balance of flavor and texture.
Frontrunnernewjersey.com Dine-In also were served up their chicken cheesesteak, their signature Smokehouse Burger, cheese fries, and their signature rice flour onion rings all of which connected the same excellence to the Gouldsburger’s experience.
Offerings provide a strong supporting cast, with Gouldsburger’s known for their many gluten-free options some of which include Caesar (with optional chicken), Greek, and a Roasted Chicken Cobb (one of their daily specials) salads. The menu also features hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, mac and cheese, and both their classic and truffle fry options.
Nearing the close of our visit, Dine-In concurred, it was clear that Gouldsburger’s mastery comes from their extraordinary attention to detail. top quality ingredients, percise preparation, bold flavor and the casual atmosphere all come together to provide their customer with the finest experience possible.
Mike Murray, the owner/manager of Gouldburger’s Sicklerville location, graciously shared the story behind the brand. Owner David Murray, Mike Murray’s brother, closed the doors of his Haddonfield establishment Denim BYOB only to open a new venture just blocks away with partner Walt Gouldsbury called Crumb.
From there they then opened their first Gouldburger’s location in Haddonfield three years ago, specializing in burgers. As fate would have it, their cheesesteaks took off, followed by more locations. Today, there are seven locations with three more just months from opening.
Along with Haddonfield and Sicklerville, Gouldsburger’s are located in Bordentown, Medford, Ardmore, Pa. and two locations in Philadelphia – Logan Square and University City. In the spring, a new Gouldsburger’s will open on High Street in Glassboro, near Rowan University. Two more new restaurants will open soon in Cinnaminson and Marlton.
Franchising has become part of the Gouldsburger’s story. The locations in the upcoming Marlton, Ardmore and Philadelphia’s Logan Square are franchised. Mike Murray will own and operate the new Glassboro location.
Sicklerville Gouldsburger’s is the only location open 7 days a week and their hours are from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., with extended hours until 9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.
