Walt’s Pizza & Grille

worst possible experience possibly bad food ignorant workers owner not on sight on a friday night never ever again and will tell all friends not even to consider going there.

I had actually never been to Walt’s until this past year and finally decided to give them a try. I ordered a Bacon Cheeseburger and Fries and it was less than satisfactory. The taste, texture, everything. It was like eating a rubber toy with playdough. I decided to give them another shot and ordered take-​out. I didn’t even want to finish my meal. As of today Walt’s has left a bad taste in my mouth. literally and figuratively. The only upside is the large parking area and the renovations done to the building. Maybe next year.

I used to love walts. I’ve been getting food from them since 97′. Some of the best hoagies and cheesesteaks I’ve ever had. Moved away for a while and I was excited to finally come back and try the new walts. I have been getting various things for the past year roughly once a week. It has seriously declined over the past couple months that I’ve been ordering. From the quality of the food, they change certain items for cheaper ones, like the onion rings, the milk shakes used to be amazing, now I won’t even order them
I believe it has something to do with the new staff, all young kids, people hanging out in the back there’s just no attention put into your food. I could go on but by looking at all the other negative reviews we all get the point.

I’m impressed. The steak sandwich is very, very good. The choice if size of the pizzas is better than any other we’ve had and the sauce has a fresh taste missing in other delivery place in the area. The workers who answer the phone are nice and personable and so are the delivery employees. I think we’ve found our go-​to pizza place… finally.

Just ordered cheesesteak, pizza and ravioli.
Cheesesteak 8 out of 10
Ravioli 6 out of 10
Pizza — not comparing to Brooklyn pizza 6 out of 10.
Clean restaurant. Open kitchen so kitchen is clean. Food is overall good. A place to go back.

Disgusting my wife ordered buffalo wings and the wings still had literal feathers on them. I have a picture I’ll post after this review. The order of onion rings also consisted of literally 4 onion rings for somewhere around $ 5. Never again will I go to Walts

Consistently our «go to «cheesesteak place. Great quality and service. I like to mix things up and get a chicken cheesesteak with feta cheese which is the best that I have ever had.

We’ve been ordering from Walts for over a year now 3 – 5 times a week but decided to take a walk down and sit down for a meal. We sat there at least 15 minutes before we finally asked if they wanted to take our order
And were advised that we needed to order at the counter. Of course there were no signs and we were the only table there. And no one thought to mention that we would need to order at the counter. When we questioned the staff they were snippy And downright rude. When we advised them we would not be ordering from them anymore they really didn’t care. Sorry delivery guys you can thank the counter guys that you won’t be getting your 5.00 tips anymore. I truly hope the owner is aware of the treatment we received at Walts.

Went to Walt’s with the family and had The ABSOLUTE BEST Chicken Cheese Steak that I have EVER had! It’s hard to please the hubby and he agrees. Our new spot!

Best cheesesteaks in Delco! Favorites include the awesome cheesesteaks (get extra cheese), the steak fries and the Gyros. Always hot, ready and fresh!

Walts in Clifton Heights has a reputation of making one of the best cheese steaks in the area. (Saying they are one of the best in Delco would not be much of a compliment as I’ve not been impressed with cheese steaks locally since I arrived here seven years ago.)
The fact they have been in business since 1939 might have something to do with it. The restaurant has come a long way since then. The recently completed renovations have left a bright, inviting and large dining room to enjoy your meal.
The place was quiet when I arrived at 6PM today. Was greeted at the counter by a helpful young lady happy to take my order. I grabbed a bottle of Walts Own Black Cherry soda to drink and ordered a Pizza Steak.
It didn’t take long for the sandwich to arrive. I should have paid closer attention to Top Unilocalers Steve S and Jim H and NOT ordered the larger size. The pizza steak was huge — overflowing with meat. Way too much for one person.
It is chopped up steak which to me hides a multitude of sins. It tasted average at best and was much greasier than I like. The provolone cheese was ok. The sauce was spaghetti sauce — not pizza sauce. The roll was good.
I was not impressed. Compared to John’s Roast Pork or Steves in Philly, it falls way short. The search for a great pizza steak in Delco will go on. Walts isn’t it.

I ordered a cheesesteak and french fries. The food I received was tasteless. My roll was soggy yet the edges were burnt black. The fries were extremely bland. The meal was expensive for the quality. There are definitely better places in the area.

The Commercial for Walt’s Pizza & Grille aired recently.
Showing the Façade,
the Recently, Rebuilt and Remodeled Façade;
With a nearly empty parking lot, A Nearly Empty Parking Lot.
There is a reason for this.
Do not come here to find out why.
The Pricing, Rudeness and Fouled Up Orders during the Old Walt’s
kept us away,
Recent Local Word of Mouth is doing so, Now…
Go to Doc’s Deli, instead.

One of those Delco places you hear about, known for the life sized pizza box chef standing by the doorway.
It gets good marks from some other trusted Unilocalers so it was worth a try, especially since it’s on the commute from my new job.
I just ordered the small cheese steak, because I’ve heard they do steaks well. I took it to go, the whole process from ordering to walking out was less than 5 minutes (although this was a Wed around 8pm).
Steve S pretty much nailed it as usual. The small was the perfect size for me. When hungry, I usually go for the large at steak shops and wind up feeling stuffed and bloated, telling myself I’ll get the small next time but never do. Only lately have I been listening to the Angel on my shoulder rather than the Devil.
Like I said, the small was perfect. Filled me up without leaving me bloated. It had a good flavor and all of the components (meat, cheese onions and bread) were proportioned perfectly. Bonus points that I was able to eat it in my car without it falling apart all over me and my car.
My one complaint may be that it could have used more salt. That said, it’s better for places to under salt things than over salt them. If I’d eaten it there or at home I would have hit it with a little more sodium but in my car I didn’t have the option. No need for them to change their ways though. Would it be gluttonous of me to keep a travel salt and pepper shaker in my car because that’s a better option.
As Steve mentioned in his review, the price is what would keep me from hitting Walts more often. $ 7 plus tip jar is a bit steep when other places charge less or give more. Overall though, Walts is definitely worth checking out and among the top steaks in Delco.

My favorite fries in the area. The cheeseburger hoagie is also really good. Ample parking and fairly quick service.
I never went to this restaurant under its previous ownership, so I can’t compare it the way others have. I’ve had good service from the young girls behind the counter, personally.

I really wanted to like this place a lot, it’s decent but that’s about it.
Their pizza is good and their stromboli’s are tasty. Unfortunately their salads are lacking in taste and freshness.
I ordered a chicken Caesar salad a few weeks back and had not only stale croutons but a hair in it as well :(
Overall, I am hoping that was an isolated incident as it is in a convenient location and some of their food is good.

There very good and and the Stromboli s are out of this word thank you Walt for all u do for Clifton

My boyfriend and I used to come here all the time before the renovation. I actually liked the old walt’s. it seemed more personal, a home — feel like place. Now it is very wide open with a bunch of chairs. It is clean and nice dont get me wrong, but not what it used to be. Now on with the food, the cheesesteaks now are just ok. French fries are cut very largely. They are a little pricey considering how much food they actually give you.
Every time we come here we get the same woman who takes our order. She is so rude. Very impatient and just plain RUDE. I do not like her attitude. There was no one there today when we went and I was talking to my bf saying I THINK I am going to get a hoagie mind you I was not even talking to her and she budget in and says SMALL OR LARGE? continues to rush on the order. Again, no one was even inside except us. I do not like this woman. She needs to be fired. As of the owner, he is Kind of rude too. Don’t know if I will return anytime soon.

First visit to Walt’s since there tear down remoldel. The new sit down area is open and clean looking but pretty boring. Its one big room with the order counter separating seating from the kitchen.
Given the tear down and drastic difference in appearance I expected a menu that would be more creative than the typical steak shop and I was dissapointed.
We called ahead and picked it up to eat at home. We ordered a pizza with extra cheese. It was pretty good but not exceptional pizza. We’d probably go there on occasion for pizza but more often we’d go the extra 15 minutes for Bella Roma pizza in Springfield. The broccoli bites were ice cold, bit even warm they would have been average. The milk shake was good, but again nothing special.
The thing that effects my decision on whether to patronize Walt’s more will be determined next visit. Tonight the woman who took our order was rushed and didn’t care that the way she treated me came off that way. It was even worse in person with the guy who took our money and gave us our food. He was down right rude. None of the 5 people working there was friendly or engaged us. I guess it could have been a bad night. If that happens a second time, we won’t go back.

I’ve heard so much about this place over the years, and last Sunday I gave them a try.
Since I’ve been trying to eat somewhat of a less fat diet lately, I decided to test them on how well they can make a sandwich without cheese. I grabbed a chicken steak with mushrooms and onions, and a spaghetti platter to share at home.
I’ll say this… the sandwich was excellent, though for the price I say it’s a little too small. It’s closer to a 6 inch for the same price that many places will charge for a bigger sandwich. But the quality makes up for it.
The spaghetti, they did not skimp on at all as I got a huge portion. Quality of it though was average at best.
I’ll give them props on the sandwich though. For a sandwich with no cheese, it had plenty of juice and flavor. I’d have it again.
But not too often. I can’t get over paying what I paid for a small sandwich.
