Claymont Steak Shop

Wife had an appointment in Newark earlier and before our day even started, we had been talking about dinner. I wanted a cheese steak, she thought about it and asked if Claymont Steak Shop was ok since she was in the area. It had been many years since I'd had one and looked forward to it. The thick cut steak fries were good! Missing some malt vinegar, but I'll just have to pick some up for next time. I believe that they do charge extra for some of their condiments, if memory recalls. Nice! Then, I get to the steak. Open it up. Had to seriously examine it to see if I was seeing it right. When I pinched the bread, it cracked. Stale. I grabbed an inch of bread and nothing was in it. Opened it up and there was hardly any steak in there and what was in there was so chewey to be inedible. I'd a

Every time my Mother visits from Carolina’s, she asking for a cheesesteak from this restaurant. I can truly say I get it! Even though I only eat here when she comes because I am not a cheesesteak person but I do enjoy eating one when she visits! Delicious, delicious and delicious 🤤 I also appreciate the welcoming cashier that always has the energy. Thank you for your service 🙏

We always have a great experience eating here. The food is delicious and not a lot of people inside so we were able to grab a table. We typically go in for lunch and have not been in during dinner so I'm not sure if the table situation is different. Plus, we typically go here when the UD students are on a break. Parking is free as well on the side of the restaurant.

Ordered through door dash, they for some reason decided to mix up all the toppings. My son’s large turkey sub got my husband’s cheesesteak toppings of ketchup, fried onions and pickles, gross. My small turkey sub got my son’s toppings of only oil which he said had barely any oil. And the only sandwich that was correct was my husband’s sub. Highly disappointing especially for the high prices they charge.

I am from New Orleans, so I definitely enjoy food with flavor. I am more accustomed to a more moist sandwich, but aside from that, it was great. The fries were delicious, and I loved the mixed peppers that were provided. The service was good, and the atmosphere was awesome. If the opportunity comes again to go I would definitely go!😋
