Lovely staff. Even better food. Would highly recommend to order ahead because they can get a bit busy.

I live about ten minutes away from Lee's. The food is really good ! The breakfast is especially delicious. The staff the are always polite and welcoming. It's also at a great location on Baltimore Ave. please check it out. read more

Gotta be transparent. I was up the block picking up some sushi but whenever the door opened to this corner stop the awesome scents pulled me in. First time and I was intrigued by the shrimp chowder. Never had shrimp chowder before. $8 for a nice size container. I also ordered the bulgogi fried rice. A large amount for $13. Seems like a popular spot because people were in and out. When I got home I dug into the shrimp chowder. Omg! Packed with flavor and lots of shrimp. This was really good. The fried rice did not disappoint either. Lots of veggies, eggs and garlic. The sweet and spicy sauce that comes on the side takes it up a notch. I'll be back for sure! Truly a read more

It was the first nice warm day of spring and I along with what feels like the rest of the city decided to have a picnic lunch. Lee's Deli was close to our picnic spot and I'd heard how well-loved it was by locals so decided to pick up our lunch here. The inside has a couple tables and nice counter seating so you could also eat inside. I had cash prepared but they seem to also do takeout orders on Doordash which I assume accommodates card. My partner was craving a classic Italian hoagie and went for that while I was immediately drawn to the Korean BBQ cheesesteak - can't believe I haven't seen anyone else put bulgogi on a cheesesteak. We also added an order of fries and a carrot cake (from the famous Carrot Cake Man of West Philly so I've heard). The owner kindly added a free cup of veggie soup to our order which was a nice surprise for our very first time there! It was such a huge haul of food that we didn't end up eating dinner, and for such an affordable price! The Korean cheesesteak was just as I'd hoped, bursting with the sweet smoky flavor of bulgogi. On the contrary, the carrot cake was not too sweet (which is a compliment) and perfectly moist. We liked the Italian hoagie but it was just a bit short of meat to be the perfect rendition. I think next time I go I'll target the hot sandwiches and pastries, and yes there definitely will be a next time! read more

Lee's Deli - Game Over Chicken Cheesesteak - Delis Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

A West Philly staple, been open forever. Tried Lee's hoagie a few years ago for the first time and it wasn't doing it for me. Decided to try again and grab a chicken cheesesteak combo. Now, I prefer my chicken chopped up in chunks so Lee's got it 100% right for me. The chicken was SEASONED SEASONED, which I appreciate but it was crazy salty in the same so it kinda messed up the flavor. The fries were on point and not soggy. What I really like about this spot is the prices, like real life corner store prices not those bare basic $20 sandwiches. I think this might be my local cheesesteak spot but ima tell them to go light on the salt. read more

While visiting a dear friend living in Philly experiencing local food became priority. I learned that Lee's Deli carries baked goods created by local bakers. We purchased 6 items made by Taa'ib Pastries. These sweet treats are so delicious. My favorite is the French Apple Pie. So if you are craving homemade style baked goods in West Philly I recommend Lee's Deli. read more

My coworkers and I orders from Lee's today for lunch after hearing amazing things. Well, we got 4 hoagies and all of them lacked meat. The hoagies had 2 slices of meat and 1 slice of cheese. It was the worst hoagie ever, it was like eating a veggie sandwich. We will not be ordering again. Extremely disappointed! read more

Great Food & services especially the staff here they actually take time to make orders also a great spot to grab & go as well over all Great

bulgogi cheese steak + carrot cake muffin are great! Add pickles for sure!!! =========== Just got delivery from DoorDash and I'm very satisfied Bulgogi cheese steak I was worried this would be super sweet, but it actually wasn't. I added pickles to this and it was great with the meat. There's pieces of broccoli in this too so it's kinda not terrible for you. The cheese and the beef aren't overwhelming one another. Carrot cake Texture is a little dense more like a muffin, but this was not too sweet and cream cheese frosting had enough tang in it. Yum. As I was eating, some grease or sauce went all over my fingers. Def a messy meal. Tasty if you want a bit of a twist to your cheese steak. read more

Wow what delicious and different sandwiches! We had a tofu cheesesteak's and chicken cheesesteak. They were so fresh, and seasoned perfectly. The tofu was amazing and served crispy outside and soft in the center. It came with sautéed spinach and broccoli, and was served with two different delightful Asian sauces which I got on the side. The chicken cheesesteak was also a mouthful of flavor. We can't wait to go back for more! read more

Love this place. Amazing food. My guys on the grill do me right EVERY TIME! Love the cheese steak platter.

The owner was nice he gave me a soup for free good food good employees clean establishment matter of fact imma have my chicken cheesesteak probably tonight read more

I placed an order for the Reuben sandwich with the dressing on the side and received not only the dressing on the sandwich but also the dressing on the side!! When I called to let the owner know, he claimed he didn't hear me say on the side however, how did I end up with a side of Russian dressing. It's the lack of accountability for me in this situation. Customer service is the pinnacle of any business! I do not feel I received good customer service at all. An apology for the miscommunication would have sufficed however, that did not happen here. Looks like I will have to find a new establishment to patronize!!! read more

I ordered from Lee's Deli because I know they have carrot cake made by the mythical "carrot cake man". The carrot cake man has been selling his carrot cakes on public transportation for many years. I didn't just order the carrot cake. I ordered a sampling of desserts along with an Italian hoagie. It is a deli after all. The Italian hoagie was a good hoagie, but nothing memorable. It will not be my go-to spot for an Italian. It seems none of the desserts are made in house, but they definitely know where to get them from The carrot cake was the same cake I remembered from years back. Very moist with the best cream cheese icing I've ever tasted. The red velvet and pound cake were also outstanding cakes. Right up there with the best Amish cakes. The sweet potato pie was just OK. I wouldn't get that again. I had 3 outstanding desserts, so no complaints there. But the deli part doesn't seem to be up to that very high bar. read more

Game Over Cheesesteak- This is the main reason I go to Lee's! I was introduced almost a decade ago now and that sandwich calls my name every now and then. Marinated chicken, grilled on the flat top and topped with Shrimp. I usually get it with Mayo and Fried Onions and spinach even tho you have your choice of spinach or broccoli. The Sweet and Sour/sweet chili type sauce that goes with it actually ties everything together perfectly. Great creative cheesesteak. 4.5/5 Rule Breaker Cheesesteak/Sandwich- The last time I got this sandwich with Salmon and Shrimp, it was a little underwhelming. Everything wasn't as fresh as I've had before but still pretty tasty. Nothing is really chopped and there's a lot of vegetables in the sandwich which makes for good flavors but certainly isn't a cheesesteak. Probably a 3.3/5 Lee's is a neighborhood spot but the Game Over cheesesteak is worth traveling for. (Ig: FoodieLifeMac . Check out my Lee's Deli YouTube review on Foodie Life Mac page. Series: Cheesesteak Run) read more

Go to Lee's for a tasty, fairly priced cheesesteak or deli sandwich, friendly service and an unpretentious but cleanly, comfortable place to dine in. My steak came with a delicious sweet and spicy sauce, gravy, and coleslaw. read more

My fave sandwich is still Korean BBQ Cheesesteak, but now my fave fries are Garlic Parmesan Cheese Fries (though I ask for less cheese because of my lactose sensitivity). Regarding portions: If two of us each order our own sandwich and share a small order of fries, it's already pretty filling. I have shared a large portion of fries between 2-3 people when we got our own sandwiches...probably too much food for 2, but better for 3. And since they introduced me to Carrot Cake Man, I always order it when I go and ask them to microwave it on the spot. If I ever change my order from these 3 things, maybe I'll update my review again, ha. read more

I'm so happy that Lee's have reopened. Today we went to get 2 Corned Beef Specials. There are so awesome & they had everything that we asked to put on them. They every got the cheese right. Husband wanted provolone & I wanted swiss. Lee's is my favorite place to go, they make the best sandwishes & more in West & Southwest. They have rebuild the place so wonderfully. They are still as friendly as they have always been. read more

I happened across Lee's Deli during my short trip to Philly to visit my friend who goes to UPenn. I'm from California, so I'm not really your typical cheesesteak eater. However, I fell in love with the cheesesteak at Lee's Deli. It makes me sad that I don't live here, because if I did then I would 100% be a regular here. I ordered the alfredo pasta with salmon and the original cheesesteak with mushrooms. I saw that there were some red sauces in my bag, so I asked one of the workers what it was. It looked like some kind of Asian sauce. The worker told me that it's a type of sweet and slightly spicy sauce that the customers love putting on everything, even the pasta and the cheesesteak. I thought, wow that is super interesting, because I never thought of adding anything Asian to these dishes. Well, I took the workers advice and let me be the first one to tell you -- PUT THAT SAUCE ON EVERYTHING. My taste buds were in heaven and I was so shocked that it went so well with the pasta and cheesesteak! The pasta itself was good (better with the sauce) but I wouldn't order it again. However, that cheesesteak is something that I'll be thinking about for a long time when I go back to California. Also! The owner is so kind. He gave me free banana bread and two bags of chips before I left. I was greatly appreciative for that! I will be telling anyone that I know who decides to visit Philly to give Lee's Deli a try. read more

Yum Yum, I purchased the game over cheesesteak with a side of garlic parm fries and I was in lunch break heaven!! Wow that cheesesteak took my lunch to another level!!. So Lee's Deli is a small store, on the corner of Baltimore Ave and they sell hot/cold foods. Lee's Deli also have a small area to dine in as well. Lee's Deli been around for years and lately they have been known for their creative cheesesteaks. They have a Korean Bbq cheesesteak which has bulgolgi meat. They also have the rule breaker cheesesteak which has salmon and shrimp. They have vegan steaks and other food items as well. That day I decided to purchase the game over, it had shrimp, chicken, broccoli and spinach. It was packed with flavors. My sandwich came with a sweet and spicy sauce on the side which added a delicious kick to the entire meal. Overall the staff was very friendly, I was greeted with a nice hello and I also received a free carrot cake for using the ATM machine! I will definitely be back to try the Korean Bbq cheesesteak!! read more

Was picking up a rental car in Philadelphia before driving to Delaware and the man at the rental car place suggested we go here for authentic cheesesteaks. Ordered at the counter and food came out piping hot! I could tell it was made to order for us and not just sitting around. I got a tradition Philly cheesesteak and my friend got a grilled fish and shrimp hoagie. We are this meal a week ago and have talked about it almost every day since. While we are it there, there were tons of pick up orders- and it was just minutes before closing too! 4/5 stars because parking was super inconvenient but everything else was delightful and tasty read more

I had high expectations for Lee's. Lee's came highly recommended and has high recommendations on Google Maps and other sites. I got the Korean BBQ cheesesteak. It was good. This may have been all night off night for all of us. The college students are still on winter break so things were slow. Very tasty Korean BBQ cheesesteak and the veggies make it healthy. I was hoping to be wow'd. Good Cheesesteak experience. read more

This is a beautiful place in West Philly. That's really close to my house and I love to get their shrimp and grits platter for brunch.

Hanging out in Philly and wanted to try Lee's Deli after following a foodies post. Stopped by and they were preparing to close. Allowed me to order the shrimp, fish and veggie hoagie. The owner is so nice and the restaurant is clean. The owner advised they usually close on time but the grill is still hot. Ordered onions ring with special sauce on the side. The food was so good along with the customer service. Food very fresh and the menu has so much variety. I'm glad they cater to vegetarians. They also have dessert. I was eyeing the carrot cake muffins with icing and the owner gave us 2 free. They were delicious and the icing was so good. I can't wait to enjoy another when back in Philly They also serve breakfast but are closed on Sunday. Everyone needs a day off to reset. Wide variety of beverages which I didn't buy. They were offering free can sodas and chips with certain items. I will definitely stop by when I visit Philly read more

Omg so disappointed they change the carrot cake cupcake recipe it is horrible don't buy it the dessert are a mess someone else is making it you can taste the difference right away must be a Chinese recipe because it sure is not the carrot cake man. People stop eating at that greases spoon place shrimp and rice they give you six shrimp an lots of rice for about 20 dollars you can go to Walmart and get a lot of shrimp and rice and cook it yourself. They used to be good but now they are greedy so they don't care how they prepare the food. People pay attention next time you order there the food has gone down hill all the way down read more

First and last time customer! Whole entire order was wrong for $58! Let me start by saying these menus posted are even accurate when it comes to prices! I ordered the game changer, the rule breaker, south Philly special, cheese fries and garlic parm fries. What I received once I got home: 2 game changers, cheese on garlic parm fries and regular. Seems to be my fault you'd think since I didn't check before leaving the store. And not to mention the south Philly special only had broccoli no seasoned veggies and this surprising type of meat which was strange because I didn't want any! When I tell you for this price, my family was highly disappointed! Nobody finished all of their food especially the cheese garlic parm fries. Highly disappointed in this establishment and won't travel here to get service again. read more

I. Love. Lee's deli! I stopped here originally while visiting my boyfriend in town about 4 years ago. Since then, we've gotten married and Lee's Deli is one of our favorites! I always always order the Rule Breaker with salmon and shrimp. It's such a filling, but not heavy, sandwich. Salmon, shrimp,broccoli, carrot, green pepper and cheese on a classic French hoagie bread - you can't go wrong! I order it with the fries and it always comes with a sweet/spicy sauce. It's a lot of food for the price too; I always split it between two meals. Yum! My husband usually orders the same, but this time he ordered a spicy buffalo chicken cheesesteak. He gives it 8/10 - not perfect - But still very good! He says it was missing something, but he isn't sure what LOL. I also got a piece of carrot cake for my husband. The place is cash only, but since we used their ATM, they gave us another piece of carrot cake for free! (He loved the cake!) They are always so nice when we visit and for that they went from 4 to 5 stars! We will continue to go back! read more

I've patronize Lee's for years and quite disappointed to give a 2 star rating. Ordered 8 hoagies for end of school luncheon on 6/17/23. The sandwiches were very fresh but lacking the meat. There was exactly 1 layer of meat per roll. I'm not a fan of a ton of meat, but expected at least a couple of layers at 9.95 per hoagie. I even spoke with an employee with some instructions. I've ordered their hoagies multiple times and never had this experience. Not sure why this was the case, but beware when ordering via Door Dash. Pick up the order and inspect versus ordering online. read more
