Ahhhh!!! This was excellent!!!! Most likely will be going back all the time. I got the cheesesteak and it was delicious. I got a small and it was A LOT. I still ate it all but I definitely could have saved half. Actually better yet, split this with someone. I took this to go. read more

Great local dive! The steak and cheese was delicious, not greasy at all and terrific roll. Service was friendly and fast. Ambiance was what you'd expect for a carry-out with a lot seating. I was there on a weekend so pick up traffic was heavy, but dine-in was pretty empty. If Wilmington is back in the office, I bet it's super crowded weekdays. read more

Service was okay, the lady didn't even strike up a conversation with me, she just wanted to take my order and get me out of there. She was kind of rude in a way. I heard her yelling at customers when I was eating my food. Sausage sandwich was okay. I was expecting the sausage to be bigger in size compared to what I got. read more

Meh. The reviews were good, so I gave it a try when I was in town (it was close to my hotel). Had the cheesesteak. Good amount of beef but incredibly bland -- really needed more seasoning. read more

Best Italian hoagie hands down , state of Delaware !! Also very good cheese steak! Service is quick and top notch..

Fantastic cheese steak. All of the workers were very nice, quick service and a really good price.

Olympic has the best subs in Delaware! The bread was fresh, meat was plentiful! My husband and I have been twice since a friend recommended we try them. During our first visit we met Nick the owner. Had a very pleasant conversation about family businesses. Staff was very friendly and patient during our first visit. We will be stopping by anytime we are in Wilmington. You must try the Nigerian!! My favorite sandwich. Many menu items to choose from so it will take a while to try it all. The onion rings looked very tempting, so I will have to try them along with some old bay wings during my next visit. read more

Everyone has an opinion. Not everyone is qualified to share it, but since we are- There's maybe five cheesesteaks worth eating in Delaware. I put Olympic at the top of the list. Get extra cheese. And bring someone to share with, because that's more than you need to eat. read more

My go-to lunch spot for subs in downtown Wilmington - great taste and huge portions (like seriously, the small size itself is sufficient on most occasions). Best to call beforehand for to-go orders, they'll have your order ready within 15 minutes. read more

The subs are pretty good, but kinda pricey big menu, pretty good nice service good trip read more

I'm still not sure about this cheesesteak. It had a sneaky good amount of meat and a sneaky lot of grease/oil. The fried onions were much hotter than the meat which at times was very uncomfortably for my mouth. $17.75 for the combo and it was definitely big enough to share. Plenty of tables and a bathroom. I know the tots came from a food supplier and Olympic just deep fried them but they were good tots and plenty of them. read more

Easily one of the best sandwich shops in Wilmington Delaware. I have been coming here for years and their hoagies are always consistent and never disappoint. You can get your sandwich in a variety of sizes and with your choice of accompaniments at no extra charge except for hot peppers. Now not everyone does a corned beef hoagie. It's definitely one of my favorites especially when the meat is so beautifully lean (see photo below) and not chocked full of gristle and scraps (like some other place I know-looking at you Sciarrinos). This large hoagie cost me 12.85 and will easily feed me twice. A winner, hands down. read more

This is a pretty good sandwich place. Nothing fancy but good sandwiches. I had a small cheesesteak. It was a little dry but not bad. The old bay fries I got were a nice touch though practically all of their ketchup bottles were empty. My aunt got the pastrami which I enjoyed a lot more. She complained that that was dry too but it tasted good to me. The onion rings were huge but the batter was not tasty. Service was good, staff here seems to care about what they do. Not awesome but I would go back. read more

Olympic Subs & Steaks - Cheesesteak and old bay fries - Sandwiches Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Food has always been good ever since I was a little girl. My Grandma Myrtle turned her family on to this place. I wonder what happened to the old guy who used to be at the front of the house? He was oh so kind and generous and always put a smile on everyone face. It's a pleasure patronizing you guys ever since the late 90s to early 2000s and Now read more

The staff here is amazing and their food is even better!! Id highly recommend the screaming cheesesteak

The food is good, they have my favorite cheesteaks in Wilmington. I love their crinkle fries. The service is very slow because they're always busy. I'll call in an order, they'll say pick up in 20 minutes, I'll stop by in 20 minutes and have to wait 5-10 minutes more. Today there was a line of at least 10 people waiting to pay for their call in orders. The subs are goods do they fill them up with lots of toppings. The large sub is HUGE and can easily feed 2-3 people depending how hungry they are. Overall it's a good sub shop if you're not in a rush. read more

I'm still so in love with the veggie subs at this place. It's a salad on fresh bread. It's a day's worth of vegetables and will keep you full until dinner. I've tried veggie subs in various cities across the country, and nothing comes close. In a small city with scant vegetarian options, this sandwich is a knockout. read more

There was a time, when Olympics was our first stop when visiting. My favorite and to me the best cheesesteaks in the area. The last two times have been the worst. This afternoon the service took a little longer but we patiently wanted to enjoy our favorite dishes, however I got mushroom cheesesteak that was lacking everything, especially the love. The meat, onions and mushrooms are usually overflowing were you can't even close the roll. This was like a where's the beef experience? I didn't have time to express my dissatisfaction because I needed to get back to work to pay for this undelightful sub. I'm not willing to give them another visit, however I will give them 3 instead of a 1 for all the years of great food and attentive service. The service was still great but the food was definitely lacking. read more

Olympic Subs & Steaks - Never in my 20 years. Smh. - Sandwiches Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

If you are meandering through the area, make sure to skip, run, or power walk your way here for a delicious sandwich. You will feel like you have won a gold medal as soon as you bite into their gyros. Found this by chance after finishing a leg workout and needing some much deserved carbs from Jimmy Johns, but much to my dismay I found out they are closed on weekends. As many of us do, I begin to panic and frantically search for a last minute option, as I do at sit down restaurants when the server comes back way to early to take my order and I am in the middle of a story with friends and have not even looked at the menu. To my surprise I find a plethora of establishments serving all sorts of tasty morsels but the smell from here and my insatiable hunger and cramping legs propel into Olympic. I was greeted by a friendly staff and the locals raved about how great the food was. And yes they were correct. Only complaint is that they kept trying to correct me on the pronunciation of Gyro. It is not called a "Gy-Row"; however, the food tasted incredible and I can get past their mispronunciation. read more

The Subs here make me want to live in DE!!! We visited Wilmington, DE for my DH line brother's wedding. While he was running around with the groom I went for a walk looking for something good in DE to eat and ran into this place!!!! HANDS DOWN, I am glad I did run into this place, the Steak and Cheese Sub was the BEST! I mean I bought one for myself and one for my DH and before he got back to the room I CRUSHED his! LOL!! I know I shouldnt have, so I decided to go back with him and let him witness this remarkable thing being made!! FOOD!!! Ugh, I'm all the way in Houston and canNOT possibly find one that is just as good as Olympic Subs! I am sooo depressed about this now... Well, That's my take on it! I Love this place and I hope that we visit in the near future again so I can just have one more sub and maybe one for the road! HA! read more

The service is getting slower. I understand being patient but not when its five cooks on the grill. I think the space is too small and they don't have room to maneuver properly?? read more

Wow, just wow. Olympic put me in one of those rare situations of befuddlement at not getting anything close to what I expected. I went for the "small" Nigerian, at $9.50 I thought 'This place is steep!'. I swung round the counter to wait. When it came, that's when the befuddlement began, they call this a small?! It's a bit deceiving, this stack of meat, they build the sandwich with a hairline layer of meat, then all the fixings, then they pile meat on top for a dramatically delicious sub. It was perfect, great meaty flavor mixed with all the trimmings on one of those fantastic, chewy, fresh sub rolls. I LOVED it. The only thing in the way of calling this my home for lunch is the price. I'd say it was just a buck over what I would expect to get and also have that 'great deal' feeling. Still, you want a sandwich? THIS IS THE PLACE. read more

I just moved to Wilmington from PA and I was in the mood for a good chicken cheesesteak for take-out. Im all about the food and don't usually pay too much attention to the price. With that said even I thought almost $13 for a large chicken cheesesteak was a bit steep. Worth every single penny! Best chicken cheesesteak I can remember having, you get what you pay for, it was so meaty. The taste was also delicious, it was grilled to perfection, not chopped too thin or left too chunky. The amount of cheese was the perfect ratio. I will be going back and would highly recommend for a chicken cheesesteak. read more

There's a couple sub shops in downtown wilmington. I think the meat at Bain's deli is better, it's on the same street but further towards the riverfront. Prices are your average deli prices (6.50 for a sandwich). At bain's deli, my Italian sandwich was closer to $7 but it was bigger and higher quality meat (better salami). They sell other sandwiches and cheesesteaks, maybe their other stuff is better. read more

Wow. Out-of-towner here for just a couple of days and really wanted a cheese steak. I've had a few before, even in downtown Philly, and none of them came close to this! Regular cheese steak with grilled sweet and hot peppers, and their house-made 'Boom-Boom' spicy Mayo ...... nice! Great staff, super helpful, place was really clean. This place is worth a drive up from New Castle every time I come into town. Well done y'all. read more

Olympic Subs & Steaks is a good place to grab a quick, casual meal. They have an extensive menu of subs, burgers and sandwiches. I ordered their special: a regular sized (9-inch) cheese steak sandwich with fries and a soft drink for around $11. It was piled high with meat, and the other ingredients added a lot to the taste. read more

Olympic Subs & Steaks - Redonkulous Cheesesteak? - Sandwiches Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Really great cheesesteaks and fries. The sandwiches were filled to the max with tasty steak and the fries were fresh cut.

Lived in Wilmington pretty much all of my life, always loved cheesesteaks. Lived in Philadelphia for a while and got spoiled, it happens as a good cheesesteak is one of my favorite meals. Listen, this place is on point, meat is good. Onion and cheese is right. I don't get ketchup or other stuff, I want to taste the sandwich and this place comes through. If you're looking for a number, I'd say 7.9. Easily. This is in comparison to originals. I will say with the proper roll, which was a little soft. Needs a good outer crunch, but doughy inside, Olympic would easily conquer some of the "right over the bridge" places. I'm going 9.5. Yes, they're that good. I'f I were to open a shop, I'd hope it had their flavor. Great job guys! Got 5 stars from me. read more

This place is my favorite sandwich shop in Wilmington. Keep in mind you get what you pay for and you will be just fine. I prefer my sandwiches to have a lot of meat and this is always my go to place. I've been coming here for over 10 years and will continue to do so. read more

Don't get downtown to eat very often, but I thought this place was an excellent choice for a quick lunch. Reading other reviews, I'm surprised to read about poor, surly service. That wasn't our experience. Maybe "efficient in a downtown sort of way!" :) Great selection of sandwiches, cheese steaks, etc, and I thought the food was excellent, and reasonable priced. Would go back without reservation. read more

I USED to LOVE the Olympic Subs & Steaks breakfast platters! They HAD the BEST egg platters! So forlorn that they now, suddenly, no longer offer their platters -- only sandwiches. PLUS, they now don't open until 9:00 -- well past the time the greatest majority of people are already at work. Fortunately, there is always the Delta Restaurant who still caters to the morning breakfast crowd and their breakfast platters are just as good! I will say, however, that Olympic Subs & Steaks have some of the best subs & steak sandwiches in town -- full, meaty, cheesy, satisfying!!! read more

Everytime as I am walking out the door after lunch, I am always thinking to myself " boy that was good!". Never disappoints

This place is the bomb!!! I got the gyro platter and it was overflowing with meat! The Greek "side" salad was a meal by itself! I will definitely come here again! Very friendly and helpful staff. read more

34 years and counting. I would arrange my business trips when I lived in the Carolinas to come in and get my Hoagies. Mike has maintained a high standard ever since his start. Olympic was one of the reasons that my wife was able to convince me to move to Downtown Wilmington read more

First of all, the bread was fantastic. The sizes are ridiculous. I would say my cheesesteak taste-wise was probably a 3 out of 5. As someone else mentioned, not super "beef" flavor and a bit light on the provolone. When you're going to eat something that probably takes a month or so off your life you really want it to be great. The old bay crinkly fries were fine, and the Maryland style (Delaware style?) crab soup was very tasty and full of crab. The guy behind the counter was not real friendly, nor were some of the other employees. However, the woman who made our food was very nice. They have a huge menu otherwise and I've gotta wonder what else is good... read more

This weekend's shenanigans took us to Wilmington Delaware. The name of the place? Olympic Subs & Steaks..Real old school place with a real nostalgic feel with old pics and signs on the wall that hasn't changed since the day it probably opened lol..Orders written down by hand with a smile and a hello to everyone who walks in. Place is very clean (A+). Went with the Cheesesteak and crispy chicken sandwich..and if y'all know me, where there's tator tots!! I am to follow fo sho!!!! Cheesesteak was huge! Enough for 2 people at least. Well seasoned, bread nice and soft (not soggy) and the right firmness when you take a bite. The crispy chicken was awesome! And the tator tots of course ...4.7/5 ...Well done! Next time I'm in Wilmington..I'm stopping back! Big thanks to @cheesesteakadventure posts..i wouldn't have remembered if it weren't for your visit first LMAO! #shenanigatorfoods #shenanigans #foodtour #foodie #food #philly #phillyfood #delaware read more
