Six years ago, this would have been four stars.  

Steak of old:
-Loads of fresh, quality meat.
-Perfectly cooked onions.
-Lots of cheese.
-Soft, crispy roll.

Steak of new:
-Loads of fresh, mostly overcooked meat.
-Undercooked onions.
-Much less cheese.
-Crap rolls.
-Much higher prices.

Fries are still good, although they tend to be overcooked now, too.

This was such an icon for the area for years...now it's just an average shop with large portions.

I cannot believe that the current owners of Claymont Steak Shop think that their significant change from the "classic" italian type crispy grinder roll to an absolutely unacceptable substitution will go unnoticed by the now multiple generations of passionate & loyal hoagie and steak sandwhich patrons of this establishment.  What can you be thinking?  I refuse to believe that I am alone in my view that this is a major blunder that will not only increase in negative feedback, but actually result in a substantive bottom line defection from Claymont and suffer its historic reputation.  I am hopeful that ownership will understand I was a valued long time patron who now cannot remain silent about this major mis-step.  YOU NEED TO RETURN TO THE KEY PRODUCT QUALITIES & EXPECTATIONS THAT MADE YOU FORMIDABLE IN THE FIRST PLACE!
