    Great Hoagie! I will be back for a cheesesteak next! Augie and crew are awesome! I am taking some back to San Diego in a few days! I was born and raised in Delco, and have been missing great Hoagie, and Cheesesteaks! Love this place! 10 Stars!!!

    The originators of the Italian Hoagie! Awesome story and phenomenal hoagie. Meats, cheese, and veggies sliced fresh for each sandwich. Augie D. and his Staff were very friendly and the place was jamming. It's clean inside and there were even a few tables to eat at inside.

    WOW! You have to try this third generation steak shop! My husband and I stopped by after we landed in PHL. Easy to get to off 95, the sweetest and friendly owners, everything made custom to order. The quality of the steak is amazing! I am gluten free so got it without the bun but it's not missing any flavor! My husband got the works & he didn't make a peep while chowing down. They have a great selection of chips & drinks too! Will be back next trip!!!

    Vibes are Breaking Bad meets PA suburbs. Can't believe I've been eating Italian hoagies without hot or sweet peppers. Really good.

    Found Dicostanza Sandwich on Yelp and it was beyond great. A small Italian was nearly a foot. Compared to a Subway there is no comparison. The man that greeted me, made my sandwich and later came out to clean tables and asked me how it was is actually a 3rd generation grandson of the founder nearly 100 years ago. Price was reasonable for a lunch and when you compare the quality and amount of sandwich meat there is no way to brag enough about this place.

    BBQ Chicken Cheesteak
    Anthony P.

    Best chicken cheesesteak I ever had. I've had many others from top spots, but this one is easily the best.

    At least they have a good variety of soft drinks. Its more drinks next to here.

    Oh no, I did not forget to post my review on DiConstanza's, just been a little busy but now that I have more than enough time to express the experience I had...Disappointing. Always heard about their hoagies being so good and even when I pulled up to the shop I seen alot of ppl going in and out so you would assume that either "Yes, their still good" or they'll always be good by the looks of the traffic of customers. Ordered a small Italian hoagie which I have to say was a decent size for $8 and a little change. Smelled good and all but the first thing I noticed, the presentation was off. The hoagie looked like anybody could throw it together, wasn't looking appetizing. Ordered my usual Italian over the phone just so it could be quicker since it was always said it could take a while if ordering in the store. Extra mayonnaise, light onion, oil and oregano. Know that it was heard over the phone loud and clear cause my order was repeated to me and I confirmed. The best thing off this hoagie was probably the roll it was on cause it was soft, would be real good if the rest wasn't trash. My first bite wasn't impressing. The next bite wasn't then the next and so on. Kept biting trying to taste EXTRA MAYO but their was NONE at all. Honestly the onions were okay too I forgot to mention but the hoagie is basic as hell and taste like a grocery store could made a better one. Overall, no I wouldn't recommend this spot for a hoagie unless you or somebody's struggling with starvation. Maybe it was hype about here or they've lost their touch but I know Im really unimpressed and had way better. My first and last trip here Im sorry. Not even given them another try for a Turkey and cheese and that's not even hard to make. DiConstanza's appreciate the loyal customers you have cause after that performance I don't see how it's that many. Oh yeah I gave them 3 stars but it's really for 2 cause I just wanted to make sure this review is posted along with the good reviews cause lower star reviews aren't shown with the others.

    Italian Sub!! Just awesome!!
    Natasha L.

    Oh my!!!! One of the best subs I have had in my life!! I just started a new job in the area and was advised to try this place for a good sub and cheesesteak. They were right! I ordered 2 Italian subs and 2 cheesesteaks. The place is a staple in Delco and is well known. The service was fast and the price reasonable. The Italian Sub was soo good!! Full of meat and spiced perfectly! Cheesesteak was good as well. Word to the wise, get the smaller size if you are ordering for yourself!! The portions are HUGE AND THEY ARE GENEROUS WITH THE MEAT. Just writing this up I wanna cheesesteak from there.

    Was here for the first time in a while and was not disappointed. The Italian sub was meaty and the vegetables were plentiful. Be sure to order in advance.

    Honey turkey sub
    Gary L.

    We took a 30 minute drive from Newark Delaware to check this place out. 20 inch subs were $20+ each. We got the honey turkey sub and it was pretty well packed, seasoned well and tasted really good. Only critique is it had too much oil on it, don't save the other half for lunch next day or the bread will be soaked. Unless you like that. BBQ chicken cheesesteak, while very tasty, had alot less meat than expected. It's not cheap, at all, but I wouldn't come back for that. I can't complain too much as it was seasoned well and they didn't go overboard on the sauce. For over $20 they could have put more meat on it. Staff was friendly, was greeted a couple times. This place is super convenient off exit 2 on I-95 North, can't miss it. They have your normal cold drinks, chips and Tastycakes but no salads (that I saw) or other cold snacks. I definitely want to try their Italian sub but not a cheesesteak as I don't think it's worth it. Cold sub 4.5/5 Hot sub 3.5/5 Staff 5/5

    Fantastic sandwiches. Very small place with a tiny seating area. You're best off calling ahead for take out.

    We ended up at Testa Rossa on a Saturday afternoon after dropping off one of the girls for a…read morebirthday party at SkyZone. Dinner was only a few hours off, but a bit too soon for a full lunch. However, the menu got the best of us and we ended up ordering a bunch of little things which ended up being far too much, but definitely in a good way. The space is quirky with a wonderful neo-mod design that is very eye catching and makes great use of the old diner aesthetic of the previous space, while improving upon it a hundredfold by making it much classier but not over the top. It does feel decidedly like a 1960's Italian locale out of a Roger Moore or Sean Connery era Bond film; to great effect. Another thing I loved about the design is that it feels compact but not small. I dislike huge restaurants, and love the family owned vibe, and this space occupies the very nice Goldilocks zone between being 'just right'. The food was good and I will get to that, but what really made our experience was our outstanding, amazing, dare I say...... legendary server, Alice. She was just flat out hands down an all around pro with a great attitude, a kind smile, and a wonderful personality who knew exactly how to keep a table like ours happy, engaged, and ready to come back again. This is something that I feel has been missing in so many places since Covid occurred, and encountering someone as great as Alice just really made the whole time there a notch above. Finally getting to the food, which was obviously delicious, there was nothing that was absolutely mind blowing, but all of it was very unique and extremely well prepared and flavorful. I did like that not everything was tomato-centric on the menu and there was a vast variety of different dishes that match the uniqueness of the space. The highlight for me was the carrot soup, not an every day item, that was nice and heavy with cumin. Brilliant flavors but not too forward, which followed our caprese dip that was an outstanding take on a dish that everyone loves, but is overdone at this point. The bread they are serving here is insanely good; either lightly toasted or grilled quickly on a flat grill, I am not sure, but slathered with high quality olive oil and it's perfectly soft, crispy, crusty, and chewy all at the same time. Testa Rossa is definitely worth checking out, and we only went for a few small plates with the intention of it being a snack. Apparently the family has more than one location, although I am not sure where the others are. If you are near Glen Mills, it is definitely worth the trip to stop in here and give them a try. Oh, and don't forget to pair your food with the super cool espresso martini tower, because you get to choose the flavors, but I'm still sticking with classic as my favorite!

    Wow!!! Sad...sad...sad…read more.. Pick a place to celebrate your daughter's 30th birthday and what a disappointment... Service the absolute worst- Bar very slow...and needs to purchase more rocks glasses... It shouldn't take 10 minutes to get a glass of wine!! Busy? Hire more f**ing people... Order pizza well done came out under cooked Ordered lasagna extra hot!!! Came out warm... I will say they did make another pizza and didn't charge us for either the pizza or lasagna Although all the while as we are stuck with half the table eating and half waiting for their food had no choice but to order another round of mediocre Pinot Grigio (they sell by the glass but not by the bottle...) asked our server about buying a bottle which she NEVER found out for us!!! Manager tried but honestly not much you can do at the point he showed up... Restaurant business is tough- been there done that but come on this was pretty basic stuff that was 100% screwed up!!! Personally NEVER AGAIN
