Alex runs Charley's Cheesesteaks in the Cottonwood Mall food court. Big red sign—hard to miss. She moved from Tucson to ABQ in 2008, and ABQ is her hometown now.
The go-to order is the "Old School"—extra meat, cheese whiz, onions. Classic Philly-style. The meat cooks in 90 seconds on the grill. They also do wings, fries, fruit lemonade. There's an app with promos and deals. They've got a second location at Coronado Auto Mall too.
