Texadelphia is a chain of more than thirty restaurants specializing in unique cheesesteaks. Established on Guadalupe Street near The University of Texas in Austin, Texas in 1985, Texadelphia has spread to more than six major cities in Texas (Austin, San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Irving) and Oklahoma (Norman). New locations are scheduled to be open soon in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas[1] and in the Bricktown area of Oklahoma City[2].
Texadelphia are independently-owned franchises. The company headquarters was moved from Austin to Dallas in 2008.[3]
Texadelphia's food is a combination of East Coast-style cheesesteak sandwiches and Tex-Mex and vegetarian cuisines.
The name "Texadelphia" is a portmanteau, combining the state of Texas (the chain's home state) with Philadelphia (a city known for its cheesesteaks).
