2 reviews for Casapulla's Elsmere Steak & Sub Shop
I heard about this place on http://roadfood.com. It got favorable reviews as being among the best sub place in Delaware. On my way home from a business trip I decided to stop in and check it out.
I ordered a cheesesteak with fried onions and a store-roasted turkey sub with the works.
The cheesesteak is comparable to the best you can get in the top-of-line Philly places. Only thing is they don't serve cheez whiz so if you are a fan of cheez whiz you won't get it here.
The cheesesteak was very tasty. It had good fresh flavor.The onions were cooked perfectly and good quality provolone was used. The best part of the sub was the roll(which often separates a good cheesesteak from a great cheeseteak) Their roll was soft and just chewy enough. Great texture. It also was just crisp enough on the outside. This is among the best cheesesteaks I have tasted in the Delaware Valley that can come close to reputable Philly shops. The combination of flavors was good and it was not a greasy blob like you get at so many sub shops. Though Tony Luke's in Philly is still my overall favorite with just a bit better flavor and a better roll.
The area where Casapulla's excels is in the store-roasted turkey sub. This was by far the best turkey sub I have ever had. The turkey was moist,flavorful,fresh and truly delicious. Combined with the awesome roll and fresh toppings, it was over the top.
If you want to try the best turkey sub in the Delaware Valley this is the place to go for sure. They also put out a first-rate cheesesteak as well but their turkey sub is surely worth the detour.
Truly the best Italian sub, hoagie, whatever you wanna call it, anywhere...period. Sorry Cappriotti's, but you've got the turkey, though. The steak sandwiches are not the best so I would stay away from those, but their Italian sub is out of this world and the only reason I am giving them 4 stars, based in this one sandwhich alone. It is truly the perfect balance of fresh-baked roll, fine Italian meats, veggies one could hope to compile.
WARNING: This place is insanely busy (and fairly disorganized) any time you go in there, so call your order in, wait 1/2 hour (unless they say longer) and they will most likely start making your sandwhich after you arrive. All of this aside, it is truly worth it. They are take out ONLY, no eat-in.
