So when u see the place as you first walk in you can tell this used to be a Subway because the culinary stations and everything hasn't changed and its set up the same way.Subway is so its not.like your walking into top dollar cheesesteak house. I ordered the seasoned fries.and.Grim.Reaper. The seasoned fries were good and had the right amount of seasoning on them. I also had the Grim Reaper which is a Cheesesteak with Carolina Reaper cheese and I have to say that at first you dont.taste the.kick in it right away but after about the 4th bite it sneaks up on you and becomes quite spicy, I liked it alot but since they cut it in half I could only eat one half and save the other half for later. If you like spicy stuff this one is for you to try. read more

I always have a great experience at this location from the customer service all the way to the food preparation. It's a little pricey but well worth it!! read more

Terrible service!!! Walked in with three people working and waited 20 minutes for someone to take my order. Also, was out of half their shake flavors read more

Very very expensive for the level of quality, I don't recommend. Srry but $22 for a cheese steak and fries?!?!

The food was decent but I wouldn't recommend it. The music was just a steady diet of profanity. I was told the other locations are more professional. The prices were decent but I left disappointed. read more

He čould head straight sold them to another customer. The lobby was VERY FULL OF PEOPLE WAITING TO ORDER. So I canceled my sub order as well.

The portion sizes are my fave thing about Lefty's. You get what you pay for and they're always delicious. Always.

I've been to this restaurant a few times this time it was not good. I ordered the Same Sub it was yellow cheese mushrooms onions green peppers. Previously the steak was amazing I was shocked at the price but it tasted so good I didn't mind paying more. I will not be returning the mushrooms onions and peppers could not be located on my sub the steak was tasteless to top it off the cheese was fake liquid nachos and the fries were hard 37 sorry I wasted my money read more

Yum yum yum. Lefty's cheesesteaks so gooooodddd. I used to hate cheesesteaks. Maybe the schools cafeteria ruined it for me. So I always avoided cheesesteaks until I became a major foodie and wanted to retry foods, trying to force myself to maybe like it! I was a little traumatized. Oh how I've been missing out on the cheesesteaks thoughhhh. It's okay. We met again and I love it! This place, so good. I know it's a chain. I haven't been to the original place but this location is the closest for me though it's still a little out of my way, it's okay! Can't complain. I got takeout here and it was fairly fast. Service was awesome. The cashier and the cook was super cool. There's still so much I have to try! I WANT EVERYTHING. Also, extra hot pepper is a must! Or ask for some of the side and smear it inside of your sandwich since they mainly just put it on the outside. I love peppers. I need to dine in and eat it fresh one day. Pretty big place and parking is easy. Though this place is on Woodward, even if you miss the first entrance, there's still a bunch of other entrances you can go to to get to this place since meijer is right there. Till we meet again! read more

While I had never heard of this place it was recommended by a friend so I figured let's give them a shot and see what they have. I was a little underwhelmed by the customer service I received. I mentioned to the cashier that I've never been here and didn't know what I wanted. A little suggestive selling would've been nice so that I could know what you were famous for. The sandwich I got was OK. No bells, no whistle's, nothing fancy... just OK. Being that this place is close to home I greatly would love to love them however it's just OK. Maybe if I came on another day, at another time, I might get the magical experience that my friend had it fell flat for me. read more

We sure did enjoy this food and the newest monthly items added to their menu were more than beyond words exquisitely delicious We had the opportunity to review these items: BBQ Banger Southpaw wedges The Grim Reaper Lefty's Sliders Which you can order by Grubhub and DoorDash We were pleased to learn that Sam Berry, the founder and owner, is actually left-handed! Not to mention he is a strong survivor of cancer He actually had always thought that he struggled in a right handed world, so he made Lefty's, to bring awareness to left handed people to celebrate in creativity! He gets his success and experience from his past days of working as a franchisee of three different brands. Sam was always frustrated because he didn't have the freedom to create his own types of food styles and changes. That's why he created Lefty's in his own style of food, that he thought of outside of the bun Lefty's has been established for over ten years! So far they've got 30 locations Their slogan is "The hottest franchise in America!" Since of course, Lefty's is one of the worlds fastest growing franchises in Michigan and with good reason of course. They are soon seeking to expand world wide and internationally. So far in the Greater Detroit area there is 27 locations. Lefty's is opening a bunch of new locations, including one that we are very excited about... The Foodsquadders hometown, West Bloomfield! We're excited to announce we'll be attending and hosting at the grand opening! Keep notifications on our posts on for when we have a date! We're so excited we'll have a Lefty's right in our neighborhood! read more

Did a pick up order and all my food was cold. 2 workers in store and the store wasn't busy at all my fries are soggy, cheesesteaks are bland and seem to be unseasoned. Wings are horrible! WILL NOT RETURN read more

Having lived in Philly, I keep giving Lefty's a chance but unfortunately this will be the last straw. If you really want a cheesesteak, go elsewhere. Otherwise you'll end up with a very sad hot dog bun and a thin, pasty layer of meat. The fact that this abomination is worth $12 is absurd. Never again... read more

Had a bad experience but the owner called me personally to handle it. Went in today after leaving out of Wingstop because nobody greeted me in line for 10minutes, I walked in Lefty's and the manager immediately greeted me, I forget her name but she took my order and took care of the bad experience from last time. They take pride in giving the customer a great experience if there is ever anything less reach out to the manager during afternoon shift I forgot her name. read more

I ordered the loaded fries with burnt ends and coleslaw. It was amazing! Very filling and a nice amount of burnt ends and fries. So yummy, forgot to snap a pic! Will definitely be ordering this again from this location. read more

I am a huge Leftys fan. I have been to coming to them for at least 3 years now and it's really cool to see how much they've grown. It is definitely my go to cheesesteak spot in Michigan. I don't usually eat many sandwiches, but I find myself craving leftys all of the time. The cheesesteak is my favorite thing on the menu... actually the Southpaw Cheesesteak. It has white cheese, steak, cheese whiz and crushed hot Cheetos. This sandwich is addicting!!! Next on the menu I love the corned beef eggs rolls. They're the type of special restaurant snack you can't really find anywhere. Loaded fries, loaded tots and corned beef sandwiches are all so tasty as well. What impresses me most about the different locations is the consistency in the food. Which ever Leftys location you go to, you're sure to have the same quality and care going into your meal. That's why they're one of my favorite restaurants in Michigan. read more

I don't understand any of the bad reviews because I had a very pleasant experience here! The decor inside is very cool. The cashier who rang up my order was very helpful and informative about the food as it was my first time there. I got the Big Poppa and the corned beef egg rolls. The sandwich was huge! So much meat. The egg rolls were delicious. It was definitely a pricey meal but I had leftovers so I'd consider it worth it. The owner (or what I assume to be) made sure I was enjoying my meal and had everything I needed. read more

Lefty's Cheesesteaks - Big Poppa & corned beef eggrolls - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

#1 - when you ask for water, they give you bottled water, then they don't offering recycling! #2 - their spicy cheese sauce is gross-it was lumpy and cold. I asked for something different, and they wanted to charge me for it. No thank you, keep your cold, canned cheese and I'll keep what $ I had left. #3 - their OG steak sandwich was forgettable and borderline pricey. Not impressed with this place. May or may not give it a second chance. read more

Love their food. Great service and the absolute best cheese steaks 10/10 would recommend

Sabrina and G phenomenal customer service and the food was excellent. Definitely a repeat customer.

Poor service... Fries oily not crispy and the cheesesteak egg rolls were half the size suppose to be.. This was my worst experience at this location read more

The food was decent and I would have gone back for it again but after I saw the rant the owner put up a few months ago on his Instagram account I would never support any business he has any dealings with. He was talking crap about another business in the area for having fliers by his restaurant, talking about how much of a joke the other place was. It was a horrible thing for him to do and a disgusting business practice. I really do hope he gets his karma, it's sad when a business has to degrade another competing business because they are scared. I mean who cares of your menus are nicer, your convert was trash compared to the place you were hating on. The steak and cheese is amazing though read more

Still a somewhat new business, I was searching for a decent steak and cheese sub. This business was a little drive, but I had business nearby so I stopped in. They were extremely friendly and helpful, and have a dedication to grow and thrive their business and make their customers happy. If my review was on the service alone it would be 5 stars!! Unfortunately, the food just wasn't for me. It reminded me of the neighborhood coney chili and cheese. It is a franchise so it's not the staff's fault, It's just a requirement. The pop machine was also out of a few selections. I believe after a little more time and greater commitment, this business could be extremely busy and thriving. I will be back to try again and will update my review! read more

I'd leave a zero star review, if I could. Twice my wife and I attempted to place an order via Doordash, and on both occasions, our orders were cancelled, after they had been confirmed by Lefty's. The first time it happened, the excuse from Lefty's was that they were closed, which was a lie. When I tried calling to ask what happened with our order, they would not answer the phone. So we decided to press our luck this evening, and try again. They confirmed and accepted our order, said they were preparing our food, and a "Dasher" was at the location to pick up our food. About 5 minutes later, Lefty's cancelled our order again, without any specific reason. I even made sure to call Lefty's before placing our order, to make sure they were accepting Doordash orders. The person I spoke with confirmed they are taking Doordash orders. After explaining to him our experience with our last Doordash order, the Lefty's employee stated "I got you, bro." After our order was cancelled again, for no specific reason, I called back Lefty's to see what had happened with our order, and was told that the "tablet" they use to process Doordash orders, had been dropped and broken by another employee. When I inquired about when this happened, as I had called an hour earlier and was told they were accepting Doordash orders, and was told they were, then the Doordash app showing that our order was being prepared and a "Dasher" was there to pick up our order, I was told "I ain't gonna argue about it witchu, bro.", and then promptly hung up on. If this is the caliber of employees working at this location, I don't trust what else could be going on at this restaurant. I mean, an employee who basically doesn't care about his job or losing customers, almost certainly doesn't care about the quality of the food, Department of Health standards, etc. I'll never spend a penny at this restaurant. read more

This was my cheat night and I was so excited to try this place! Complete waste of a good cheat night. I went for the first time and I was underwhelmed to say the least. I walked in to pick up a carry out order and there was a woman I'm assuming was a manager or owner, talking to the cashier and didn't acknowledge me or stop the conversation when I approached. After they were done talking the cashier finally greeted me, she was very pleasant and that made me forget about the awkward first impression. My food was ready, a bit overpriced for what I ordered but I was excited to try the Philly cheesesteak. Well, it was terrible! Very cheap, shredded meat, the cheese "sauce" was like cold Velveeta, and very little toppings. I've been to Philly and had real cheesesteaks and this was by far the worst I've had. The fried mushrooms were like any coney island, I will not be returning. read more

I have never written a Yelp review before but the experience I just had at Lefty's Cheesesteak at 8 mile and Woodward has compelled me to do so. Upon walking in, there were 8-10 disgruntled customers patiently waiting for their orders. That should have been enough of a sign to turn around and walk out but my girlfriend and I were pretty hungry so we chose to stay anyways. The owner was behind the counter screaming out orders and berating his employees for being slow without giving any real direction. The cashier was trying to take our order but the owner kept interrupting her to yell out customers names that were obviously wrong. A sweet, older lady came to the counter and asked if he was calling her name but he kept shouting over her and told her he wasn't talking to her. It turns out it was her order and when the owner realized he made it incorrectly, he blamed it on the cashier and threw the ticket at her face right in front of us. At this point, we just wanted to get our food and leave so we placed our order to-go and sat at a booth. The owner continued to scream at his employees and yelled at another customer when he gave her a salad dressing that she did not ask for before looking at me like "Can you believe this lady?". He even made fun of my name that he read off an order ticket like I wasn't standing 5 feet behind him. When he finished up, the owner walked around the counter while texting, completely oblivious to anyone around him. I had to take a step back so he didn't run into me. As if everything leading up to this wasn't enough, the owner sat down at a booth to call his bookie and put money on the NFL playoff games being played later. He was discussing the spreads so loud that my girlfriend looked at me with her mouth open in disbelief. "I'll take the Chargers ALL DAY!!" By the time we left, we couldn't help but laugh about how bad the experience was. The first thing I did was check the Yelp and Google reviews and sure enough, the lowest reviews were customers complaining about the owners behavior. With that being said, the food was decent but due to the incredibly unprofessional behavior displayed by the owner, we will not be back. read more

If you are going to try this place, do it through Uber Eats or another delivery service. DO NOT GO IN AND PLACE A ORDER! They are so busy fulfilling delivery drivers orders that they give poor service for walk in. The cashier actually FORGOT I PLACED AN ORDER! The food I ordered had been made and was waiting for me, but the cashier forgot me completely. Despite the wait, the food was still warm though. I tried the original cheesesteak with extra meat and cheese, Very good! I will order again, but I will NOT walk in to do it. read more

Food quality is very disappointing. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak & the meat tasted & looked like HAMBURGER.!!!

Quality is much better& price is much cheaper. read more
