My husband and I spent this past weekend in Delray and ended up eating here twice. We purchased a Groupon to get a deal on our order, because they are a little pricey, but I think they're worth the price. I ordered the chicken cheesesteak with provolone cheese. It came with onions and mushrooms. I really enjoyed it. The bread was soft, and overall it was just a great combo of chicken, cheese, and veggies. The serving size was huge. The cheesesteak alone will leave you stuffed. The second time around we ordered mozzarella sticks and pickle chips with our cheesesteaks. Those were both really good, too. The breading on the sticks seemed different to me...maybe thicker?...but in a good way. I really enjoyed them. Next time we come down to Florida we will definitely come back! read more

Bad excuse for a cheesesteak. Really don't know what they are doing. Nothing seemed fresh and they don't do enough volume to make you feel safe eating there (food turns). read more

Came here with family and we definitely enjoyed it. The French fries are amazing and it was def a really philly vibe! The bread was very soft and the steak was cut thin and not chopped. I recommend if you want the closet thing to a Philly cheesesteak to come here! read more

Greasy and nasty looks filthy and food is nasty. People working there look high....if you want to eat old grease soaked in a bread this is the place... yuck read more

Yo that was legit awful! Overly greasy mess and cold and expensive! I won't be going back

Terrible. I thought I would give it a try. After not going there for over 10 years. The cheese steak B-/C+. the chicken tenders can't even be chicken. It's some weird almost paste like substance. The mozzarella sticks also horrible. Processed cheap food. I could buy better out of the Publix frozen food aisle. I can't believe they are still in business. And full disclaimer over 10 years ago I was there after a night of drinking and it's sucked, and stone cold sober for lunch today and it's worse than ever. Don't waste your money read more

1st cheesesteak - made w the wrong meat. 2nd attempt - every condiment was either wrong or missing entirely - even after 30 minutes the maskless staff wasn't even able to assemble the few correct igredients for a literal sandwich, despite having written instructions. Also the provolone was shredded and just minimally sprinkled on top of the meat - to call these authentic Philly cheesesteaks even in the remotest sense is a disappointing joke, honestly. read more

This place is surprisingly good. We went here because it looks like a neat little hole in the wall, and who doesn't like an authentic philly. The place has outdoor seating only and you can see into the kitchen while they cook your food which is great. I got what I came for, greasy cheesy and flavorful Phillip cheesesteak. I was pretty pleased with my food. The boyfriend got a burger which he said was also very good. Hole in the wall places are hit or miss and this place is definitely a hit. Try it out! read more

Big Al's Steaks - Sandwiches Near Me - Delray Beach, Florida

The cheesesteaks here are pretty legit and this is definitely a good place to hit up if you've been drinking on Atlantic Ave. The service is fast and it's not too expensive. I usually opted for the regular Philly Cheesesteak with fries (which are really really good, mind you). I can't attest to whether they blow actual Philly cheesesteaks from Philadelphia out of the water, but I will say there is really no other place like this in Delray and the food is pretty yummy so it's a good place to eat. read more

It is overpriced for the amount of food that you get, the steak did not taste fresh and was sliced too thick. There wasn't good enough meat to bread ratio. The guy who took our order was rude. However, the location was great and the ambiance is the only it has going for them. read more

This is some serious cheesesteak - done the traditional Philly way. I'm not usually a fan of cheese whiz, and should probably have asked them to put less of it into my cheesesteak, but I could definitely see the appeal of the whole product in the end. Soft, fresh hoagie bun with the cheese whiz all melting in your mouth, and with tasty steak that's not overly shredded like in some places - it's a win! And I imagine that for the Philly folks, there is no better place to get a taste of home in southern Palm Beach area than here. And just so everyone knows - it's a very casual place where service won't go very far. And as for the set-up, it's very much like any one of those late-night pizza shops you find in South Beach. Don't let that deter you though - and don't go silly ordering anything other than the classic standby. read more

While the sandwich was tasty, the portion of meat was most ungenerous and the cheese hardly able to taste at all. Not enough for a $10 plus tax. I would skip this place if you're hungry and not liking to get ripped off. Worth $5 maybe. read more

Horrible! The worst cheesesteak I ever had! Hubby agrees. The roll was 3x larger than it should have been and very dry. Meat was dry and tasteless. Very skimpy on the onions. It was simply boring. read more

So I ordered delivery with Uber eats . They ask for your order . I ordered hot dogs with raw onion , asked for sauerkraut and relish through special instructions which was on the receipt. If you won't give the customer what they ask for just cancel the order . Hot dogs seemed old and dry , they actually have cooked onion which amounted to about 4-5 tiny pieces . At least this is one place that will never get my business again read more

The Cheesesteak was 5 stars. The large with your choice of cheese, onions, peppers and mushrooms was $9.25 but was excellent. Very tender and flavor-able rib eye. The fries and onion rings were frozen. So even though they were high quality they weren't cut fresh so they get just 3 stars. read more

Placed an order online, waited 45 minutes for the delivery, only to then be advised the order was cancelled because they didn't have any delivery drivers working. read more

Theresa was very friendly, social, nice. She cooked a damn well cheese stake. Yea pls

if you have the opportunity to go to this place in Delray Beach I highly recommend that you go. My wife and I were looking for cheesesteaks and we have happened upon Groupon for cheese steaks let me just say that this place is small but what it lacks in size it definitely makes up for in their cheesesteaks. We ordered the regular cheesesteaks with mushrooms and onions and also a side of tater tots. They also have birch beer if you're interested we haven't had such good cheesesteaks since we're up in Philadelphia. This place is definitely a gem on Atlantic Avenue prices are reasonable however parking is a little difficult because it's right on Atlantic Avenue on the corner. so you probably have to park somewhere around back but it's definitely worth the trip. This will definitely be one of these spot that we return to where we're looking for Philly cheesesteaks read more

Big Al's Steaks - Yum yum - Sandwiches Near Me - Delray Beach, Florida

It's so sad when you go to a restaurant and you feel like you're bothering the employees just by ordering food. They were asking me if I was sure if I wanted my sandwich instead of another because it would take longer. Plus when ever the shorter chef is there the foods good if anyone els is cooking I'd rather get McDonald's. They're over priced for the quality of the food and the staff being the way they are. If they weren't on the ave they wouldn't be in business read more

I would never order anything else from there. I paid $16 for something I could of gotten from McDonald's.

Very disappointed bordered 3 cheese steaks thru grub hub arrived dried out and not at all the way ordered them. Very disappointed as we have ordered from them before. Salty tuna salad not very good fried Mac an cheese read more

Worst sandwich I have ever eaten! Went to Delray just to eat there from out of town. The meat seemed like it was sitting for days. The bread was horrible, and not even toasted. Don't waste your time or $12.00 on this sandwich. read more

Was in town for the tennis tournament and spotted this cheesesteak place. I love cheesesteaks so was excited to have one. Got there after they opened and placed an order for a sandwich and waited. The lady who took my order was wearing gloves but touching everything. She was actually on her phone wallet holding it up as she cooked everything touching her face and her phone and my cheesesteak. COVID aside the meat was thicker sliced cheap ribeye. Tough, greasy and flavorless. Cheese was not even melted. Besides not being clean probably one of the worst steaks I've ever eaten. I had one bite and tossed it in the trash. Couldn't even give it to a hobo, was nasty. What a waste on money. Very dissatisfied would not recommend. read more

The word on the street is that this place is legit when it comes to Philly Cheesesteaks. They have a pretty wide variety of ways you an eat it --and have other sandwich options (but why would you?) There fries are awesome and they also have a pickle and pepper bar that I would always dig right into. It's all greasy and good. This is the food you wanna eat to prevent or help cure a hangover. read more

They used to be the best but today we had narly sandwiches,old meat and onions like it was turned over on the grill all day unsold. Did they sell out? read more

This is probably the best Philly Cheese Steaks in town, but I am not a purest and order mine without onions. Make sure to try the fries as they are equally good. read more

30 min waiting in line only to wait another 15 min for the cashier to say the order never went through. Short staffed every day. Adam and big Al need to figure out how to staff a business before it's in operation read more

I went here on the 4th of July, right after Delray's fireworks display. The streets were riddled with people and so were the restaurants. The genuinely unique characteristic of this cheesesteak grill is that they were fast and the food was fresh. I had an original cheesesteaks and fries, both of which were not too greasy, which you can expect from most joints like this. I recommend this place for lunch or a quick bite (but a filling one). The tables are all outside or you can take it right up the street to the beach. read more

Ordered for pick up. Went to the window, guy was rude as hell. Food was mediocre and overpriced. The buffalo chicken sandwich is boring and flavorless. The original Philly cheesesteak is average. Will not come back and definitely not recommend. read more

Stopped in kinda late, ate more than I should have. Classic cheese steak, it was good.

This evening while walking by a customer was eating outside coughing without covering her mouth on her phone stating loudly that her doctor had told her she had the coronavirus. She obviously was trying to get the attention of the people around her, but with the state of affairs it's not something to lightly joke about. I called Big Al's to let them know what was going on the female manager on duty, who was inside said she hadn't heard her say anything. Obviously, the woman was outside and the manager inside. For them not to take this specific issue seriously is an extremely poor decision for a food service restaurant. I highly recommend upper management speaking with their team on how to handle this situation, including health and sanitation during a major outbreak. Highly disappointed and needless to say won't be going here any time soon. read more

It was good just a little over priced for what you get in my opinion. Other then that the quality is good.

Decided to check out this place because I was in the mood for a Philly Cheesesteak. I ordered a number 1 with everything onion, mushroom and bell peppers with provolone cheese, it was really good and the flavor was good too. I also ordered breaded wings for my kids, the breading was a lot and had a salty taste. Probably next time I'll order plain wings without the breading. Staff was nice but they needed to keep up with cleaning tables outside, luckily had wipes to clean the table. I will give it another chance to try them out again. read more

Ordered here this past Sunday night. Late food. Food poisoning for last 2 days. I've had food from here in the past. No problems. Obviously the handling of the food was where it went to crap. So never again. I'm a frequent flyer here to DelRay. It was a woman who was working. Avoid her at all costs. read more

Nasty. Paid for cheese steak first. Threw it out and learned a 13 dollar lesson..

The quality of the meat used is actually good! The only note made on my order was to toast the bread. The bread was soggy and soft. The jalapeño poppers were similar to a product you could buy at aldi and pop in the oven. For the location we thought it would be a prime spot to order a philly with a considerable amount of cheese and flavor. No cheese even though they charge extra for it. Maybe a bad night? Fail at a philly. read more

Nothing like getting mushrooms on your sandwich when you didn't order. Had to throw away I don't eat them and did not order. Big greaseball otherwise. Wish I would have checked reviews. read more

I don't eat vegetables, but I have definitely had a much better Philly cheese steak than this one. It's my first time eating at Big Al's Steak. I had my mouth watering for this sub and when I open my food all I got was 1pc of steak that folds with the bread. I was so very disappointed to receive a $10 sub with 1pc of meat and the guy had the nerve to say you'll be back. Yes to get my money back. NEVER EVER AGAIN!!!!!!! read more
