Slow, slow service. I arrived about 10 minutes after 11 on a weekday & there was one guy ahead of me who already had ordered (one sandwich & fries). I ordered one sandwich & it took at least 15 minutes or more. The lady who came in right behind me had called in an order & she was still waiting when I left. The lady taking orders was nice but seemed unfamiliar with how to ring up an order. The hot veggie sandwich I ordered was wrapped well so that it was still pretty hot when I arrived at home. It was ok but apparently, I'm not a big fan of this type of sandwich, so I don't plan on going again. read more

OMG! This place is small but crowded, you can tell it has good authentic Philly food by the popularity of it. The bread was heavenly soft and the sandwich was hot and tasty. We loved it! read more

Great little place for lunch. Stopped in twice while visiting friends & have been very pleased with the food both times. Service unfriendly. Could use a smile & a kind word. read more

Recently moved back to AZ, and was wanting a sandwich, whether it come from a deli, was Philly, or just a sub from a local spot. Went to fill my refillable water for my home and saw this place tucked away across the street. Lemme tell you, I wish it was exposed more because they deserve attention. Because...oh my damn! First trip, I went with my brother a couple weeks back. We both snagged the 12" Southwest with Chicken and saw they offered BULBOLGI FRIES, so we had to. The Southwest was so flavorful and offered a fair amount of peppers, onions, chicken and cheese. Ugh, just the right amount of heat, it was so balanced. The Bulgolgi Fries were AMAZING! I will warn ya, the flavors are rich, but it didn't stop us from sharing a Large. The staff when we ordered was super nice and welcoming. They do have a few seating spots inside and I loved their music Playlist they had. Decided to go back today, but just get pickup. Went with the Southwest with Rib-Eye and AGAIN it hit the spot. I would say, the one thing I wouldn't mind is having the bread be a little crispy. This is just a personal preference but I'm sure if I asked they would kindly oblige. DEFINITELY worth a visit, so if are near by and want a flavor picked Philly, check them out. read more

Great Philly, best mozzarella sticks I've had in a long time! Friendly service. Will definitely be back. read more

It's a solid cheesesteak. I went with the basic large cheesesteak with grilled onions. It came in around $16 w/ tip. The bread was really tasty. Like good enough where I want to find out where they get their loafs. Steak was perfectly seasoned. It came in probably just under 1 lb. So it was enough for a couple meals. No complaints at all. read more

Heard about this place for quite a while, finally stopped in after the gym, delicious.!! Savory meat, sandwich just the right size, with friendly service. Didn't try any of the sides, but picked up a cheesecake to go. Highly recommend! read more

Subtle look from the outside, but not subtle flavors. Delicious! Very clean and well decorated inside. The food was amazing. Accidentally came across this place looking for just a plain ol turkey sub for my son. Was pleasantly surprised to see they had cheesesteaks so I snagged one for myself. It was amazing! Great fluffy bread, and super flavorful stuffing of meat, peppers, cheese and sauce. I would recommend this to everyone! Don't skip the fries, you need them! Perfectly seasoned, with the right about of crispy and soft.They are so so good! Price is great for the amount of food and quality you get. Great customer service on top of everything else. You have to stop in and get some food! read more

See all

So underwhelming. Who TF uses hotdog buns on Cheese Steak Sandwiches? Really? Dude in back who looks like the owner looks like he just took a massive bong hit in the back office. Too bad, he really put some effort into the whole Philadelphia theme. It's just his food is horrid. read more

If you're looking for a delicious cheesesteak, this is the spot! I've been looking for a while, tried jimmy johns, restaurants, etc. and they all sucked. You walk in the place and there is memorabilia from the Rocky movie and all they serve is cheesesteaks. read more

The sandwiches were amazing and fries were delicious. The owner waited on us and really has a passion for his food and customer satisfaction. If you like Philly cheese steak sandwiches or great Italian sub this is the best place!!! read more

Phila Deli - Philly Cheesesteak Fries - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

An outstanding family owned small business. Always polite and friendly service, and wonderful tasting food along with homemade desserts!

Sandwiches were fantastic. Friendly service with great food. Have returned several times since our first visit.

The cheesesteak was good just a little bland. My cheese fries w/bacon were wonderful. Would go back and try a different sandwich.

My Wife and I are visiting from Florida. The family we are staying with suggested cheesesteaks as a dinner idea. Initially, we hesitated because they knew nothing of the establishment, then decided to go for it. Wife and I had the Southwest Cheesesteak and family had the regulars and fries. OMGOODNESS!! We were absolutely blown away! What freshness of bread! What tenderness of steak! What exact seasonings and flavor! Fantastic sandwiches, fries and service! 1000% sold on Phila-Deli!! We will be back... soon!!! read more

I was out running errands and had heard such great things about this sandwich shop. Decided to stop in and see if the rumors were true. They were. THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! Seriously, do yourself a favor and go try it. Phila-Deli is hands down the best Philly shop I have eaten at in AZ! And that's coming from the pickiest eater in AZ as well! The owners were so nice, they came out and made sure everything was how we wanted and that we didn't need anything. They even cleaned our table for us! Go check this place out! Thank you Adina and Jackson! read more

We went in like a year ago. They have some craft sodas to go with your Philly which are tasty compared to other offerings in the valley. Honestly though, besides the food being good and the counter person nice - the thing that stood out was the dude who came in for takeout in flip flops, shorts, a members only style jacket, and a keychain in his hand...all emblazoned with that famous red and yellow rearing stallion logo. We laughed quietly at him until he left and fired up his new F40 or whatever it was. It was blue. Kudos to you man. The well dressed couple that were the only others to enter besides him kept eyeing our bottled craft sodas and saying how did they get beer? I didnt see it on the menu... read more

We were looking for a new place for subs and came across Phila Deli so I drove from 43rd ave and Bell, and man I'm glad I did ! I just had the most tenderest And flavorful cheesesteak sub I ever had ! My wife had the Italian and she loved that as well. Definitely going back . Great friendly people and service too, I suggest going there yourself read more

The food is so delicious. It's fresh, always hot and reminds me of growing up in New York. Skip the fast food places and come on in for a real good meal. Please visit and they will stay for a long long time. read more

Same problem as a few of the other reviews I have seen. I was there at 6pm on Saturday night...everything I see says they should be open but they were not. I was really craving a cheesesteak! read more

Cheesesteaks are amazing! Super good food and service. I also love all the boxing and philly memorabilia.

First time in. We enjoyed the Chicken Philly with chicken, provolone and onions. Also a plain steak with mushrooms, onions and tomatoes. Excellent quality ingredients. Meat is high quality. The mushrooms and other vegetables are fresh. Great flavor. Generous portions. Immaculate and clean restaurant. You have to stop in and enjoy Phila Deli. read more

Tasty!!! Had a large cold Italian and that sh*t was Fresh! Tasty! Yummy! We'll definitely be back!!! read more

The sandwiches here are amazing. Quality ingredients that are plentiful. The owners are amazing people whose always very nice.

Pretty decent little restaurant. We have gone there a few times and get yourself a Philly cheesesteak. They have a lot of different options. It seem to be going more towards Korean options which I find a little bit baffling but I don't go a lot anymore cause I'm not really sure what they're trying to do. read more

Family owned? Meaty sandwiches? Cheese whiz? Flavorful onions and peppers? We ordered the Philly cheesesteak special, no marinara. The sandwiches are amazing. The meats are well seasoned and plentiful. The whiz is gooey and delicious. Pepperoni in a Philly cheesesteak is a stroke of genius. I do have one complaint. The bread did not hold up. The bread was soft and by the time I got the sandwiches home, my sandwich was not hand friendly. However, when I complained about it, my husband responded with: "I have never in my life ordered a Philly cheesesteak and expected that f***** to be a clean eat" Fair. Great point. They also mentioned they were looking into getting a crustier bread that will hold up better. I look forward to coming back and trying it with marinara and the new bread. read more

Been wanting to try this place for a minute! So glad I did. I got the original cheesesteak with provolone and onions. On top of that, the fresh baked bread and cookies with great service bumps this place from a 4 to 5 stars! I'll definitely be back. read more

Food and service were great! The potato salad was delicious. We tried an original cheesesteak and a cold turkey sub both were fantastic in my opinion. Will definitely be coming back! read more

The small Philly is 8" of meat and cheese whiz filled bliss. Plenty of food, very "Philling" (hah!), bread was soft and fresh. Definitely worth coming in and trying out. Love that it is a small family owned place. I'd say my only small critique, would be the lack of music in the dining area. Makes the whole experience just a tad awkward. But...owners were nice, place was CLEAN, food was great. I hope they thrive. Side note- they DO have vegetarian options, they just aren't on the menu as very few Cheese Steak customers are looking for vegetarian options. But if you ask, they have those offerings. read more

Phila Deli - Anxiously awaiting our sam'miches. Smells awesome. - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Phila Deli Address: 20219 N 59th Ave ste a-3, Glendale, AZ 85308 Phone: (623) 376-9333 Went to Phila Deli to buy Cheese steak Sandwiches during the week at ~12:00pm. I grew up near Philadelphia, PA and have had many cheese steaks there. I went to Phila Deli because it was highly rated on yelp. There were no other customers the 25 minutes I was there. (Red Flag) The girl behind the register was very pleasant and welcoming. I ordered 1 Lg Cheese steak, and 1 Lg Bacon Mushroom Cheese steak to go. I took the sandwiches home, 5 minutes away, and checked them out. I was very disappointed in the sandwiches. They used very greasy steak-um instead of the shaved Ribeye they claim to use. When getting a Cheese steak you should never be able to completely close the role. The steak should be the star of the sandwich. There was barely any steak in the role. The steak was not seasoned properly and tasted really greasy and bland. I could not even taste the cheese. The role was very soggy. Even though it was toasted it absorbed a ton of grease. The Bacon Mushroom Cheese steak was very similar. Not much meat, really greasy, and soggy with no taste. Additionally, there was almost no mushrooms and they used bacon bits instead of real bacon. I could not only see the store bought Bacon bits, they were also crunching in my mouth when taking a bite of the sandwich. This place should be very ashamed in representing Philadelphia the way it does. These steak sandwiches are an embarrassment. There is no way the Yelp ratings are correct for this restaurant. I recommend going to Jersey Mikes for authentic Philadelphia style Cheese steaks. read more
