Excellent little Italian shop! Hoagie was fantastic and the staff was super friendly. Plenty of great eats in this place.

Good roll

Some one put Di Scala's on my radar quite some time ago and I was finally in the area so I sought them out. Nice large store/deli located just south of Chester. Lots of refrigerated pre made foods to choose from but I was there for a hoagie. I decided on corned beef but only saw it as a sandwich special. The lady helping me said she could put it on a roll instead. I got what would be considered a "half" and my sandwich was very good. The roll was perfection and the igredients were fresh but the meat was cut just a little to thick for my personal preference. The price was definitely right as well. Highly recommended.

Corned beef special - 2 for $10

Had never tried this place before, so I stopped and picked up a chicken cutlet sandwich for my husband last week. It was topped with sharp provolone, broccoli rabe and hot peppers. I didn't get the chance to try it myself or get a picture cause he ate the whole thing. It's not a big place but they have a bunch of stuff to offer... lots of yummy looking Italian stuff. I will be going back for sure.

We came in for chicken cutlets because our regular place doesn't do hot sandwiches on Sundays. I've had this place bookmarked for a while to try and it did not disappoint. My husband got the chicken parm sandwich and I got the cutlet sandwich with mozz and broccoli rabe. Both were really good and inside the deli is really authentic. I was making so many mental notes to come back to do some ingredient shopping. We will be back!

Great deli right off 95. I ordered the chicken cutlet supreme. Was amazing. Also grabbed 2 tomato pies for home. The kids quickly ate them. Worth stopping in for lunch off 95.

The sandwich isn't small, the olive oil is just that BIG!

Wow! This Italian hoagie was so good I was smiling (like a dope) while eating, and for a while afterward. Each and every ingredient was TOP Italian quality. Crazy-sharp provolone, prosciutto like none other, capicola that belongs in a museum, roasted peppers that could have been a dish on their own, and crusty fresh bread straight from an pro's oven! Holey moley this was good! We went in to buy some olive oil because we ran out of the specialty stuff we bought at Carlino's, and we hoped this place would have something comparable. We found a good imported olive oil there, and could not resist trying the food. I have a whole list of good hoagie spots, but you gotta find an Italian place to get a good Italian one. Supposedly Primo's is known for Italians... we (RELUCTANTLY) tried Primo's ONCE. It was crap. If we had known this place existed, and what we could buy with our money instead, we would never have set foot in an icky Primo's. DiScala's is probably the BEST Italian hoagie my husband and I have ever had. (And my husband works near S. Philly, so he is shown the host of top Ital hoagies on offer in this area.) We cannot say enough great things about the extremely high quality of this food. We had to wait in line (for a while) to get this sandwich, but I would do it again in a heartbeat! Phenomenal! Phenomenal! Phenomenal!

Got into Philly and heading to Delaware, found this spot based on reviews. Did not disappoint!…read more Service was great, prices were not bad and most important, the food was delicious! Got an Italian and a chicken cheese steak. Portions were massive. Loaded with meats and veggies! Bread, fresh and complimented the insides perfectly.

From the moment we walked in, this place just felt different. There was a steady stream of people…read morecoming and going the entire time we were there and it was obvious this is the kind of spot locals keep coming back to. It had that welcoming, hometown vibe where everyone seemed comfortable, and you could tell the staff genuinely cared about the food and the people they were serving. I've had Italian subs all over the country and this one is honestly the best I've ever had. Fresh bread, quality meats, crisp toppings, and everything perfectly balanced. Nothing flashy, just an incredible sandwich made the right way. The biggest compliment I can give is that before heading to the airport to fly back to California, I made sure to stop here one more time. I knew I'd regret leaving without one last Italian sub and I even bought a shirt as a souvenir. If you're anywhere nearby, don't overthink it. This is one of those rare places that lives up to the hype. Great food, great people, and the kind of hometown atmosphere that makes you feel like you've been coming here for years!

Different cheesesteak #1048 in the last five years. Interesting stop. I explain in full video…read more I got the chocolate chip cookies, 4 for $2, you know I love that. The cookie dough dipped in chocolate and chocolate cherries looked amazing. They were making chicken cutlets. I was extremely close to getting a chicken cutlet sandwich. They use their oven roasted beef for the cheesesteak. I was surprised how different the texture was from a steak. $8 cheesesteak. When I have been a good boy and deserve a treat I will be going back.

Decent deal for a value-priced hoagie! Not the most artful sandwiches ever, but decent for $5.50 on…read morean 8" roll. We tried John's the other day for sandwiches. They don't have a menu (except for party trays) so you make up what you want and voila. The staff was very friendly and professional, especially for their young age. The young man who made our food said, "I hope you like it," when he handed them off to us, which was very thoughtful. It shows pride in good work, which is really appreciated. Meats were decent and fresh, rolls fresh too. I was told I'd get a 12" roll for $5.50, which would have been an amazing deal, and I was all ready to rave about the deal on Yelp, but what I got was only an 8" roll, which, in light of my anticipation, was kind of disappointing, but for $5.50 it was still a good deal for the quality of deli meats. The store was clean and tidy. There was a dining area if you wants to eat in, and typical selection of tastykakes, chips, drinks, etc. that come with the deli atmosphere. Typical old school corner store.
