Demi Kollias says Newark residents are willing drive 30 minutes for a good cheesesteak — but now they don’t have to.

Kollias, the owner of Claymont Steak Shop’s original location in Claymont, Del., has good news for Newark residents. The business is opening a new location in Amstel Square on the corner of Amstel Avenue and Elkton Road.

Kollias said the Newark shop is set to open shortly after Thanksgiving.

A Claymont Steak Shop is heading to Newark

If you're a cheese steak connoisseur, you're in luck because the Claymont Steak Shop is branching out.

The police department voiced concerns about parking and crosswalks, which city departments are working on with DelDOT.

Newark's Claymont Steak Shop will be a larger version of the restaurant complete with outside patio seating.

They plan to open on September 1st.

When I walk into a steak shop to get a cheesesteak, there's no better sight than a giant pile of thin-sliced meat on the grill with someone wielding two giant metal spatulas, pulling meat off of the pile and chopping it into bits for a cheesesteak.
