Sak's Deli

Definitely a place to stop for a sandwich in Clayton. A bit of a drive from Raleigh, but it's worth a trip. Friendly, locals seem to really like it which is always a good sign. Got a half Philly Cheesesteak, with provolone. The roll was excellent, the sandwich very good. A small five-star Deli for North Carolina.

Service was friendly and efficient. Foodwise, this visit was not as tasty as my last visits. While decent, the Chicken Philly was bland today. I asked for onions and peppers, but the peppers were invisible. They now sell assorted hot sauces and spices in house.

Was in the area on a Saturday afternoon and decided to give Sak's a try.Walked into a small dining area and was greeted right away. This is a full service business. The decor is sandwich shop style with various local food items for sale on shelves against one wall.Our drink order was taken immediately which is all bottled/canned items. The menu is brought up on a smart device or a pad offered by establishment. My wife ordered the philly mushroom cheesesteak and I the spicy cold hoagie. The philly had a good amount of beef and mushroom. My hoagie had an adequate amount of meat, cheese, lettuce, onion and tomato. I was surprised the hoagie came dry with no mayo, mustard or oil. When I asked for some mayo there was no problem. Each of our orders came with a side which my wife asked for potato salad and I got macaroni salad. Both were ok.I thought the value for what was recieved is a little high. The young lady serving us was pleasant. When we received the bill I see a Service Fee charge for 92 cents. I did not debate it, paid, left a tip and walked out. Do not plan on returning.

I brought my kid there yesterday and let me just say that $13-$14 for a Philly cheesesteak in my opinion is ridiculous. I ordered a side of pasta salad and it came in a small little 2-3 ounce ramekin. For that price don't be so cheap. I lived up north for years and this is nothing like it. The bread was stale and it wasn't even toasted. The steak tasted like that frozen steak-ums you buy and you can make at your home. Not my thing, I think they can do better. If it was super tasty, I wouldn't have a problem paying whatever they wanted but it wasn't worth it.

I wish I had written this review sooner: Sak's is a hidden gem of a place. The sandwiches are always on point; I consider myself a connoisseur of Reubens, and the Sak's version is simply outstanding. Ditto the Cheesesteaks, the Italian hoagie, and all the rest. Service is always friendly and prompt. The place is small but inviting and feels like a family-owned and operated local place should. It's so much better than any franchise sandwich place in the area. Makes me feel good to support local small business!

Hidden Gem(behind Waffle House) in a small strip mall. Cheesesteak was on point, fries were seasoned, crispy & tasty. It was recommended by locals and didn't disappoint.

Great Philly Cheesesteaks especially if you like white American cheese on them.Good service/Oh and the rolls are great also/

The subs were amazing and came out quickly! Recommend getting the fries, very different from anywhere else! Lots of options for food, drinks, and sides!

Excellent sandwiches served in a small deli restaurant. The server was pleasant and served up our meal in a relatively short period of time.

Real Deli FoodSak's offers a wide assortment of authentic deli items from Breakfast (served all day) to Salads to Sandwiches to Desserts (fresh-made daily). The atmosphere is friendly, laid-back and comfortable. We sampled the Reuben (generous pile of tasty, tender corn-beef topped with Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and a zesty mustard sauce on marbled rye bread); the Chicken Philly Sub (super soft hoagie roll filled to the brim with savory chicken and topped with chili) and Potato Salad (very tasty). Portions were generous and prices reasonable. You should give Sak's a try.
