“ I just had the Jumbo Roast Beef sandwich and it was AMAZING!!! The Beef is so tender it melts in your mouth and those sandwich buns, so soft and wonderful. I have mine with BBQ Sauce, Onions and Pickles and every time I have one I think, WHY DIDN'T I GET 2!!! Keep rocking it Kevan and all you!! ”

“ WOW delicious! Portion is huge! Cute little restaurant. Excellent service. Very quick ”

“ Came here for a late afternoon lunch on a Friday. It is a cute little hole in the wall in a suburban strip-mall that looks underrated. The place has the decor of a former Asian restaurant but the big push is roast beef sandwiches! The board up front spells it all out and if you don't read quick enough the quick tongued staff member at the cashier station will tell it to you. She was quick with an upsell and hard to resist. French dips, fries, O. Rings and two colas later we sat and exclaimed ... "it sure beats Arby's." We could have shared a sandwich with two sides to fill it out but we took some home to enjoy later. Roast beef on your mind? Give this place a try and don't be shy if you need something just ask... they probably can accommodate you. Yummmm. ”

“ Great location Great staff! Great food! And a mashed potatoes are awesome Great value for your money... I always a pleasant atmosphere ”

“ I have been intending to eat at Penn Lake Roast Beef for some time but it is next door to my favorite Vietnamese restaurant so I am never able to resist the call of spring rolls and pho. Today was Monday and CoTu was closed and I was in the area and hungry so I dropped in to Penn Lake Roast Beef for lunch. When you walk in if you didn't know better you would think you were in an Asian restaurant. The star and decor is Asian (Chinese I think) but the menu is American. Roast beef obviously but also turkey, burgers, meat loaf, etc. I had the meat loaf sandwich combo which was a slice of meat loaf on a bun plus crinkle fries. The meat loaf was a little dry for my taste but the fries were hot and crispy. You order and pay at the front and seat yourself and someone quickly brings your order. You also bus your dishes. The staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. I will definitely return and probably try the roast beef next. ”

“ Great food for the price!!! Get that french dip, son, and slap some swiss on there. Absolutely bizarre ambiance...but who cares. ”

“ Great service, staff is friendly and very welcoming. Nice small spot with good food, value is on point as well ”

“ The roast beef sandwich was really good. The fries were fresh and hot. The service was outstanding - my food was served with a big smile. ”

“ Finally I made it here and what a treat to meet the owner, Kevan and his sister, Fanny. Kevan had survived a pretty traumatic robbery incident at this restaurant and when I met him he was just full of energy and pride for the business he has established with lots of sweat and tears. He was super welcoming when he found out I am from Malaysia and he himself was also an immigrant like me from the same part of the world. This is a very unassuming place for roast beef but it's legit! It's not often that you find traditional American comfort food plate fused with Chinese food plate offerings on the menu. Don't let that turn you off. Try it before you beat it. This review is not for the Chinese food however because I did not order them this time. I came here specifically for the roast beef and it delivered. So comforting and the meat was well seasoned and definitely tender! I also enjoyed the corn and mashed potatoes with gravy sides very much. Price was super reasonable. There is a parking lot. #supportlocalbusiness ”

“ If I were to tell someone not familiar with this place it would not be impressive at first. Suburban strip mall, American menu with an Asian appearance. Then to describe the variety of menu and the slow cooked 'overnight' roast beef on a soft chewy bun their mouth would be watering. Take out ordering is easy from the large wall menu, there is also indoor dining. Prices were very reasonable and indeed the Roast Beef sandwich is large, ok not piled as high as a Chicago style deli pastrami but not sixteen bucks for a wich either. There's more than sandwiches including cod, turkey and meat loaf. So much more to try at this otherwise relatively hidden mom n popper. ”
