I don't like giving negative reviews but sometimes you can't help it!
I decided to try Delilah's Steak and ordered a Cheesesteak with "wiz" and onions ($11). I also ordered a side of small cheese fries ($4) because…well why not!
The French fries were pretty good and I'm glad I started with them. They were thick cut crinkle fries with the same "wiz" as in the cheesesteak!
The sandwich itself however was well…poor! I've been to Philly and have never had a cheesesteak with diced steak pieces but they were cooked well enough. The huge problem was the pepper, it's almost as if they dumped three tablespoons of it in my sandwich alone, basically inedible.
I should mention the delivery was very quick and all of the food was received hot, that's great!
I'm no expert on anything but this was a very subpar cheesesteak and given the cost you're better off going to God Bless USA deli!
Do note: I'm from Pittsburgh and am fearful of what type of negative response I may get from the owner who according to other reviews is from Philly and has signs up in the restaurant hating on Yelp.
This spot was bookmarked on my Yelp forever and I was finally in the area and decided to check it out. It's a cute lil spot to dine in and/or take out. I ordered my sandwich to go. I had the regular cheese steak with whiz and it was just okay. The sandwich was a bit on the small size in terms of meat. Unfortunately I realized I don't like whiz so that taste didn't sit well with me and the rest of the sandwich.
With all the high ratings on Yelp I was expecting a heartier and more tastier sandwich and mine was just OK. The bread was soft which I enjoyed but I've had much better cheese steaks in Philly and just other local spots in NYC, The staff were cool and they had some cool looking cash registers. I am willing to try another sandwich without the whiz to see if I missed out on the real hype of these sandwiches.
Decent Philly cheesesteak. Nothing to go over the haystack over. its just something about getting a philly cheesesteak in philly that makes the taste more magical.
they have a celery ale thats pretty good.
Excited to try their Philly cheese steak. Honestly, I only tried this place because I was nearby but still. Anyhow, the bread wasnt as soft as I had hoped. The sandwich a tad warm but the whiz didn't make the mess that I wanted. The spicy peppers saved the Sandwich a bit. Please get a side of those. The Sandwich is about a foot long. I only ate half and that's coming from a girl who can eat a lot and loves sandwiches. I heard the samson was good, so I'll give that a try if I'm around the area.
This was honestly a pleasant surprise and genuine shock. Upon hearing from Steph P. during one of our g-chat sessions at work that in honor of National Cheesesteak day, Delilah's was giving everyone away free treats! I glanced at the advertisement and scowled and said, "Yeah, this may as well be in Queens. It's in frigging Greenpoint!" Though, after a strenuous weekend workout and being bored and with nothing to do I figured, eh. . . . 45 minutes out of my way for a sandwich? Why the heck not! SO WORTH IT.
There's a sign outside boasting "Best Cheesesteak in NYC". They are not kidding. The restaurant in itself is a little out of the way. You walk down a few winding streets from the G train stop, walk along the expressway, pass over a line of cars for the carwash and boom: a beautiful bright pink and jet black sign greets you at Delilah's. It reminds me of a caravan diner. The walls are decked out with tiles and mirrors in artful patterns. Immediately upon entering even with there being a fairly large crowd the guys up at the register asked for my order and if I'd like provolone or wiz and onions with that. I asked for both the wiz and the onions because I felt that was the more traditional Philly route and prayed that when my sandwich order was up that they'd get my name right since I tend to garble when I talk. The wait was relatively short, 15 minutes or so for a free freaking sandwich. There were options of beer that was pretty insanely cheap: $2-6 varying on size. Though, I passed. Side items were also available of French fries and onion rings. Milkshakes, soda pops, and a variety of other sandwiches vying for competition: roast pork and broccoli rabe, chicken steak with pepperoni. My mouth was watering at this point. The side tables have an array of condiments from sweet and spicy peppers to everyone's favorite sriracha sauce and ketchup.
I took my sandwich to go as my name was called out pretty impressively loud and scuttled home. The sandwich reheated was still amazing. The absolute best cheesesteak I've ever had. The meat tasted fresh and was slivered so thin. The cheese wiz wasn't overwhelming but soaked into everything so well. The onions were delicately caramelized and the bread was firm but still soft and held the mammoth of meat and cheese together to the very end. Needless to say, this thing is huge and served me two dinners. The only thing about Delilah's I wish that would change is that it were closer to where I lived.
Great cheesesteaks. Dare I say they are the best in NYC!
I had a bad Philly cheesesteak yesterday from a Philly Institution in Atlantic city. It was not good. I needed to fill my craving for a good cheesesteak and this was so much better!
I had a cheesesteak with wiz and onions. It was very good. The bread had a great texture and the ratio of meat to cheese was perfect.
My wife had a chicken cheesesteak with wiz. It was very good but a little heavy with pepper. Still probably the best chicken cheesesteak she has had.i
Craving a bit of cheesesteak and not wanting to go into the city, we opted for Delilah's. We spend a lot of time in Williamsburg so this place has always been on the list of things to try. The day we came, it was empty. Virtually nobody was in the place except for the staff, which was fine by us. It was late on a midweek evening, so we didn't expect many people. We ordered a cheesesteak with mushrooms and an order of onion rings.
The guys behind the counter were very nice and quick with the order. The cheesesteak was big enough to be shared and the onion rings were plentiful. The bread in the sandwich wasn't too great. Maybe it was late in the day, but the bread tasted stale. They definitely made up for this by loading the sandwich with meat and wiz, lots of meat, we were barely able to finish the sandwich. Then the onion rings were crispy and tasty, we didn't finish that at all and ended up taking most of it home.
Worth a visit if you're in the area, for sure. If you want to have a better sandwich, you might want to venture into the city.
Went to Torst for a beer event and my brother found this spot. This place is great. We were greeted with great service and free beers while we wait for our food. The sandwiches? Amazing. Great cheesesteak. But what was the star of the day was the Samson. This sandwich was amazing. Chicken, steak, and taylor ham! Ugh so good!!!
