    Great Hoagie! I will be back for a cheesesteak next! Augie and crew are awesome! I am taking some back to San Diego in a few days! I was born and raised in Delco, and have been missing great Hoagie, and Cheesesteaks! Love this place! 10 Stars!!!

    The originators of the Italian Hoagie! Awesome story and phenomenal hoagie. Meats, cheese, and veggies sliced fresh for each sandwich. Augie D. and his Staff were very friendly and the place was jamming. It's clean inside and there were even a few tables to eat at inside.

    WOW! You have to try this third generation steak shop! My husband and I stopped by after we landed in PHL. Easy to get to off 95, the sweetest and friendly owners, everything made custom to order. The quality of the steak is amazing! I am gluten free so got it without the bun but it's not missing any flavor! My husband got the works & he didn't make a peep while chowing down. They have a great selection of chips & drinks too! Will be back next trip!!!

    Italian hoagie

    Vibes are Breaking Bad meets PA suburbs. Can't believe I've been eating Italian hoagies without hot or sweet peppers. Really good.

    Found Dicostanza Sandwich on Yelp and it was beyond great. A small Italian was nearly a foot. Compared to a Subway there is no comparison. The man that greeted me, made my sandwich and later came out to clean tables and asked me how it was is actually a 3rd generation grandson of the founder nearly 100 years ago. Price was reasonable for a lunch and when you compare the quality and amount of sandwich meat there is no way to brag enough about this place.

    BBQ Chicken Cheesteak
    Anthony P.

    Best chicken cheesesteak I ever had. I've had many others from top spots, but this one is easily the best.

    At least they have a good variety of soft drinks. Its more drinks next to here.

    Oh no, I did not forget to post my review on DiConstanza's, just been a little busy but now that I have more than enough time to express the experience I had...Disappointing. Always heard about their hoagies being so good and even when I pulled up to the shop I seen alot of ppl going in and out so you would assume that either "Yes, their still good" or they'll always be good by the looks of the traffic of customers. Ordered a small Italian hoagie which I have to say was a decent size for $8 and a little change. Smelled good and all but the first thing I noticed, the presentation was off. The hoagie looked like anybody could throw it together, wasn't looking appetizing. Ordered my usual Italian over the phone just so it could be quicker since it was always said it could take a while if ordering in the store. Extra mayonnaise, light onion, oil and oregano. Know that it was heard over the phone loud and clear cause my order was repeated to me and I confirmed. The best thing off this hoagie was probably the roll it was on cause it was soft, would be real good if the rest wasn't trash. My first bite wasn't impressing. The next bite wasn't then the next and so on. Kept biting trying to taste EXTRA MAYO but their was NONE at all. Honestly the onions were okay too I forgot to mention but the hoagie is basic as hell and taste like a grocery store could made a better one. Overall, no I wouldn't recommend this spot for a hoagie unless you or somebody's struggling with starvation. Maybe it was hype about here or they've lost their touch but I know Im really unimpressed and had way better. My first and last trip here Im sorry. Not even given them another try for a Turkey and cheese and that's not even hard to make. DiConstanza's appreciate the loyal customers you have cause after that performance I don't see how it's that many. Oh yeah I gave them 3 stars but it's really for 2 cause I just wanted to make sure this review is posted along with the good reviews cause lower star reviews aren't shown with the others.

    Italian sub
    Terry L.

    Was here for the first time in a while and was not disappointed. The Italian sub was meaty and the vegetables were plentiful. Be sure to order in advance.

    Italian Sub!! Just awesome!!
    Natasha L.

    Oh my!!!! One of the best subs I have had in my life!! I just started a new job in the area and was advised to try this place for a good sub and cheesesteak. They were right! I ordered 2 Italian subs and 2 cheesesteaks. The place is a staple in Delco and is well known. The service was fast and the price reasonable. The Italian Sub was soo good!! Full of meat and spiced perfectly! Cheesesteak was good as well. Word to the wise, get the smaller size if you are ordering for yourself!! The portions are HUGE AND THEY ARE GENEROUS WITH THE MEAT. Just writing this up I wanna cheesesteak from there.

My first two were excellent, the third not so much. I've had an old world Italian hoagie and a roast beef hoagie, had the mini size and both were jam packed with delicious ingredients. There was a time I could have eaten the largest size, which is 3 times the size of the mini, but as an old man the mini was perfect. My most recent visit I ordered a regular size kielbasa with sauerkraut, which for most of the sandwiches would be like the medium size, for the kielbasa is was the smallest they offered. Well, I should have asked for the kraut on the side because when I got home the nice Aversa's roll was soggy, my fault there. On the other hand the kielbasa tased like Hillshire Farm mass produced crap. When the guy got it from the refrigerated cooler where they keep the deli meats he carried it with both hands in a manner as to hide the package it was in, I thought it was odd at the time but didn't think any more about it, until I got home and realized why. While waiting for my sandwich, I saw what looked like 'real' kielbasa in with the deli meats so I was very disappointed when I went to enjoy the sandwich only to have the taste and texture to like be a glorified hot dog. Overall I like the place, the prices and hoagies are great. But, I now know not to order anything but the hoagies here.

    Stopped into Wolf's Superior Sandwiches while on a road trip and I really wanted to love this place…read morebecause the menu is creative and the vibe is promising. Unfortunately, the experience was kind of a mixed bag. I stopped in on Mother's Day and they were really overwhelmed. I'm keeping that in mind for this review. While still giving my experience and feedback. I had ordered ahead but still ended up waiting 40 minutes past my pickup time. That would have been more understandable if the food came out hot and fresh, but the fries had clearly been made earlier and left to the side, so they were cold by the time I got them. You know those sad limp fries that should've been amazing? Yeah, those. There were three young ladies behind the counter, each seemingly working their own station but at completely different paces. It caused a bit of a bottleneck where food was just sitting while one person tried to catch up. The phone was ringing nonstop and there wasn't a clear sense of urgency. One staff member kept stopping to text mid sandwich, which, hey, we all have lives, but it really disrupted the flow and made everything slower. If something was going on, communication with the team would've gone a long way. As for the food: My steak sandwich had zero seasoning. I mean none. The only flavor came from the peppers on it. Two hours later, after reheating it in the air fryer and adding salt and pepper, it was decent. My husband had a cold sandwich and enjoyed his more, so I'm guessing results may vary depending on what you order. I didn't rate the service too harshly because it was clear the staff was overwhelmed, not rude. They barely had time to offer a smile, let alone conversation. Still, I gave this spot 4 stars because I see the potential. The menu looks genuinely interesting, the space is nice, and I imagine on a slower day with tighter processes they probably put out some fantastic sandwiches. I'd definitely be willing to give them another try, but next time I'll show up with extra patience and maybe a backup snack just in case.

You'll be looking for Maxi's Bar which is located next door and connected via an inside door between the two businesses. I found parking across the street, which was metered! The staff inside was very friendly and helpful. They were passionate about the food and you could tell by the way they described everything to me. The owner was sitting at a table chatting with a couple of old veterans. He was nice and very appreciative for my business. They had a TV inside with the midday news on. The menu had a lot to choose from (burgers, steak sandwiches, chicken, roast beef and meatballs to name a few, but I wanted to see what "THE PORK BOSS" theme on the menu's was all about. I ordered the Hot Hooker at $13.75 - Smoked Hot links (think foot long hot dogs), topped with House pulled pork, mild provolone & bacon, topped with Ghost Pepper BBQ sauce. The sandwich was huge. The bread was fresh, pulled pork was a tad dry, but the bbq sauce made up for it. I would have asked for sharper provolone, but I'm not sure if they had it. The bacon was crispy and the hot links provided a nice kick, but lacked the smoke I was looking for. If they make that BBQ sauce homemade and available for purchase I would be a buyer. Overall it was a huge meaty meal of a 'wich and it held together really well! If I'm in the area I'll return for a second round. The menu is well rounded and the staff knows how to put together a sandwich!
