A son of 19063, now settled in San Diego's distant 92082, still answers the call of the old…read moreneighborhood. This very morning he stepped into Van Horn's, secured two hoagies "to travel," boarded the flight from Philadelphia, and upon landing handed one to his waiting son as fare for the ride home. Even after crossing the country by air, the sandwich remained a perfect echo of home. Van Horn's plays no favorites. It feeds with equal care the souls who never left, the faithful and the wanderers who departed yet return whenever the heart grows heavy. Whether one stayed rooted in Media or lived the same boyhood as our traveler with daily walks to Rose Tree Elementary, counter duty at Old Chester Steaks, the proud opening of Joycelyn's, and countless 1 dollar meals sustained by Tiny T's Just sayin....Van Horn's delivers the genuine article. No compromises. Only home. Unwrap after the long journey, eyeball a long Italian roll soft and firm enough to hold its treasures across 3000 miles. Sharp provolone meets paper-thin stacks of genoa, capicola and ham piled high in the old-fashioned way. Oil and vinegar mingle with the shredded lettuce, the tomatoes, the onions all offer their crisp bite. Not a trace of sogginess. One bite and the traveler is transported straight back to the corner where he belongs. This correspondent has sampled every worthy hoagie from Delaware, to Chester, to the Main Line, and yep even South Street. Van Horn's does more than serve sandwiches. It restores a man to the place he never truly left. For those who stayed and those who keep coming home, this establishment is, quite simply, Home. 19063 whether you never strayed or you are only now returning make the stop.

2.5 stars. - not rounding up…read more Poor service, little too pricey for what I received. Very unorganized kitchen and staff. Overall missed the mark. I ordered the Satchmo, a buffalo chicken, Italian hoagie, ham hoagie, 4 chicken tenders and fries which came to a grand total of $85. Phew. This was my first time here, but I've heard the food and cheese steaks were great so I was ok with things at this point. I placed my order for pickup and was told it would be 20 minutes. I came in around the 20ish minute mark and waited for 25 more minutes. There was only 1 other person waiting with me. I did see 3-4 other people come in pickup and leave while I waited, but it wasn't busy by standards. While waiting is when I when I observed how unorganized and dis shoveled the staff were. The lady upfront was kind, attentive, and seemed to be running the show putting orders together. But, when she asked for help she didn't get any. She asked another staff member to help bag a specific sandwich for an order, several times, and it went in the guys ear and right out the other. I could also hear them scrambling in the back working on my order, and complaining about how many Italian hoagie orders came in right at the same time. Maybe they were behind, maybe they accidentally let mine go with a different order? This is all speculation but they were definitely overwhelmed and it shouldn't have taken that long for my order. The cheese steaks were good, and the Italian hoagie was very hearty! They do not skimp on meat, but the hoagie bread was so hard most of it was thrown away. I don't care for shredded gums. Overall, not a good first time experience. Minus a star for the price, minus a star for the delayed pickup time, and minus 1/2 for the rock hard Italian hoagie bread. The steaks were good but everything else outweighed the food quality.

Stopped here for lunch after having had some of their food at a catered event…read more We specifically went for the hot roast beef sandwich and ordered 2, one with American cheese and the other with sharp provolone. After sitting down, the sandwiches came out shortly afterwards. No provolone at all in the one. The sandwiches were tender but under seasoned and the roll could have used a bit more heft. Nothing here that would make be try again. Service was just ok and the place could use a good scrubbing.

Nice and clean interior, guy at the counter was not helpful nor was he rude. He didn't really care and was just there. My thing is, how are you a Pennsylvania establishment, close off to Philly, yet you can't make a Philly cheese steak properly? That's a whole embarrassment. I don't see this to ever be a thriving business. Portions are weak, flavor isn't there and overall an experience you want to put behind you. I was really hoping to write a positive review but I can see why it was nearly empty and every patron on the street didn't give them a second look. They get the 1 star for being clean.

Apparently if you want an Oyster Po Boy, I don't believe they have it here but you can go to Ruby Cajun not too far away.

Really disappointed with my experience ordering from Delco Steak tonight through Uber Eats. My…read moreorder was a chicken cheesesteak with ranch, mayo, provolone cheese, and fries. It was originally supposed to arrive before 7 PM, but the first driver canceled, then I was reassigned another driver and kept waiting while I was actively communicating about the delivery.After all that waiting, the order was suddenly canceled because the store stopped accepting orders close to closing time. The money was already taken from my bank account, and I was left without food.I also tried contacting the restaurant directly by phone, but couldn't reach a real person just an automated system that only directed me back to online ordering through Uber Eats or other third-party apps, with no way to actually speak to someone.When I contacted Uber customer support, the representative (Stephanie) told me:"Stores will sometimes do this when they're too busy to give all orders high quality service. Rest assured the refund will reflect to your account within 3-5 business days." I also want to note that I wasn't even given an option for Uber Cash, account credit, or an expedited refund, even though I explained I had no food for the night and very limited money left in my account. I had no way to reorder or recover the situation in the moment.I understand businesses get busy, but there should be better communication. Customers shouldn't be charged, left waiting for hours, and then canceled on at the last minute with no notice or immediate resolution. All I ended up with for a meal today was disappointment.

Today there was a new person I never seen working the grill and she very clearly wanted to shut down early so I was denied the right to use the dining room room. I'm in there all the time and they were gonna make me like stand outside and wait for my Uber with a large cheesesteak. Just so the owner knows I decided instead of being disrespected I would just go ahead and take my business somewhere else and they threw the cheesesteak in the trash. I was here like last week and they literally let someone in like five minutes before they shut down to sit there and eat. So I would tell the new girl like maybe she shouldn't be making up policies quite yet because you lost a regular. And money.

Outstanding Dining Experience Review…read more I recently ordered door dash at this place and the taste thoroughly impressed me. Here's my take: First impressions Food The food was delicious and served hot, exactly as it should be. It's clear there's a strong commitment to quality and timely execution. I forgot to snap a photo of my own dish, but I did photograph my son's meal--his sandwich looked delicious and was presented well. Highlights Consistently hot and flavorful dishes. A kitchen that clearly cares about the quality and timing of the plates. Would I recommend? Yes. If you're looking for reliably tasty, hot meals and delicious food. Quick note for future visits If you're like me and love snapping photos of your plates, try to capture your own dish next time--though the presentation on my son's plate was a great tease of what the kitchen can deliver.
