At Phila's Burger Station on Wednesday, owner Sam Lee stands at the front door shaking hand and welcoming me to a local dining institution.

Sam knows most of his customers on a first name basis. Located at at 23rd Street and Lowell Ave., Phila's Burger Station has been owned by the Lee family since 1995 and is widely known for both its Philadelphia style Hoagie (served on a roll) and its 1/3-pound burgers.

A Bell Pepper Hoagie served on a roll (with mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, grilled onions & cheese) runs $ 6.99 and could make a meal for two, depending on the hunger levels.

And their 1/3-pound hamburger is very much the classic All-American hamburger and can range from $4.45 to $6.95. Burgers can enjoy toppings such as cheese, mushrooms bacon or chili, and there's also grilled chicken and veggie options. One this reporter finds extra tasty is the Philaburger (pastrami, grilled onions and Swiss cheese).

After all these years, I still love Sam's food and encourage my neighbors to stop by, say hello and grab a bite.

I live a block down from this spot and this man is honestly a very humble human being I mean just the way he interacts with you when you’re ordering and paying, you don’t feel like you’re walking in to a small burger spot on the corner of 23rd you’re walking into a comforting and very accepting and friendly environment
