    Philadelphia Cheesesteak Adventure
    James P.

    Different cheesesteak #1117 in the last five years. Is there such a thing as a Popi/Corner restaurant? $8.80 for a large mushroom cheesesteak. I like $8.80 but that may be high compared to other Popi/Corner stores. I stayed true to my word and did not order mayo on my cheesesteak. I asked for it, 'the way they usually make it.' They put mayo on it and I liked it.

    Chicken over rice

    These guys grind hard. They were in the middle of prepping a 25 person luncheon when I walked in. They still got us in and out the door within 20 mins. Portions here are healthy sized. Prices are low low low. As long as you're willing to go into seedy underbelly of Wilmington your belly will be well rewarded. I washed down my gyro and koftas with a $1 tall boy of Arizona ice tea. You simply can't eat like this in the suburbs. Everything here is made to order so it is hot and fresh. I enjoyed everything I ordered (gyro, chicken over rice, and lamb koftas). The white sauce is delicious, I always ask them to give me extra. I think I need to move to hood.

    Clean, please, knowledgeable, staff, kind. Food is good. Generally good parking. I like their fried chicken, their corn fritters, and their shrimp. Great pizza.

    Unfortunately you get what you pay for especially when it's delivered. I ordered a six piece fried shrimp and fries and a five piece fried chicken with coleslaw. The chicken was over cooked and dry. The fries were cold and stale. The fried shrimp was hot, so it was obviously cooked last. It was decent. I also ordered a peach cobbler. They preorder already made cobbler that they heat up and send to you. Not very impressed with this place.

    Chicken and lamb platter
    Neha P.

    Pros: Open late night Large portions for the price Friendly service Cons: Location isnt the best Food: It was decent. White sauce was too tangy, almost like a ranch sauce. Hot sauce was your standard hot sauce by Reds hot. Food wasnt fresh by any means as the guy behind the counter lifted up the lids for the pre-made chicken and pre-made lamb. Meats weren't dried out, but again it wasnt freshly prepared. Overall: I'll have to try their cart as reviews seem like that is the better option. Stay tuned. Overall decent, but the place on Walnut definitely takes the crown for best rice platters in wilmington in my opinion. Check out my reviews for deets.

    WILMINGTON'S HIDDEN GEM! I loveeee this place! I live in Trolley and the local Greek place (Opa Opa) is overpriced and just honestly not that good. Semos has some of the BEST gyros I've ever had and they are literally $4.99. Such a great deal because the meat is seasoned *perfectly* and the gyros are huge and fully loaded with veggies and yummy sauces. My husband and I always get one lamb gyro, one chicken gyro and then split fries. This comes out to about $10 and is always so delicious, totally worth the drive. We go here every few weeks for takeout.

    Semo's is a great spot for fast food. They have lots of variety including fried chicken, pizza, gyros, halal food, water ice. The halal chicken over rice plate is really good, but note that it's a bit different from NYC halal carts if that's what you're used to. The seasoning has a tad less spice and they use parboiled rice instead of basmati. The fried chicken and gyros I've had were also good. The guys that work there are friendly. I especially appreciate their hours because not many places in the area stay open as late as them.

    The lamb and rice is legit. Very nondescript storefront, but the food is well worth it.

Keep going to the stop sign. When you're at the stop sign look across the street to the left and they're right there. I got lucky and found street parking right in front of their door. Walked in and they were packed. One tiny table open squashed between two others and the bar were my options so I sat at the bar. I try to pay cash at Mom & Pops place so they're not hammered by the credit card fees. They were low on change and recommending credit cards. I dug around in my pockets and found exact change. They were all out of pastries but one. I wanted to try their pasties de nada but all that was left was a croissant so I ordered it, along with their French toast and an oatmilk cappuccino. Turns out the croissant was already purchased by another patron who was going to have it after their meal. It hadn't been served yet. I received a refund. A couple showed up and sat at the bar as all the tables were full. Then someone else showed up and pointed at the seat I had my coat on saying they were told to sit there as it was the last seat open in the entire place. Packed. The French toast came out in good time but somehow my cappuccino got lost in the mix. It was immediately made and brought out. The French toast is as good as everyone says it is. Light, well filled, great flavor without being too sweet. I was trying to eat it all but had to stop 3/4 of the way as somehow it's filling. The cappuccino is also very good. I made the mistake of wanting to try them out at 11:45 on a holiday. 100% my bad. Considering there are only 3 people working the entire establishment, they did a great job. The food and drink were totally worth it and I will be back (at a less busy time)! *Quick add: I usually don't post while in the establishment but did here. Even with it being busy the owner came by to talk about the review and share a little about their business. They do evening events, private dinners. They also host guest chefs. Their goal is to elevate dishes, which is exactly what they did to the French toast. Based on this one breakfast I would definitely consider them for any function I was hosting in the area.

We were able to take advantage of the happy hour pricing and grabbed a couple of beers before checking out the approximately ten vendors for food.

It took almost 20 minutes to get my food but these were some of the best (and messiest) wings I ever had! I don't know how they get them that crispy but they were excellent. Prices were on par with most food trucks not cheap but fair. This place is a good choice for a more interesting fast casual meal.
