The regular guy who makes the sandwiches here has an attitude problem. I'm sorry to say it, but he does. And not only that but today he messed up my sandwich. I ordered a tuna club on a wrap - it was clear as day, my two friends heard me order it, and he handed me a plastic container with a tuna salad sandwich on a cheap kaiser roll. I asked him politely to please remake it into a wrap like I asked, and he made me what my friends called a "punitive wrap," containing a tablespoon or so of tuna and the bare minimum amount of lettuce and tomato. I was very confused by the volume of this wrap - why was I being punished for HIS mistake? Please take a look at the photos if you don't believe me. This was disgraceful. To make matters worse, I was overcharged for the punitive sandwich. I have been coming to this restaurant for over a year. Every time I come in, I am charged the exact same amount, $10.83. For some reason today, the young man behind the register charged me $15.23 for my punitive wrap. I suppose I could have corrected his mistake but I was so unsettled and frustrated about the punitive wrap that I didn't speak up. One thing is for certain - I will never be returning to Amsterdam Deli. Here's how much business they're losing - 2 sandwiches / a week = $22 a week $88 a month $1056 a year. All because the guy behind the counter couldn't make me a [redacted] wrap. Jesus. read more

See all

Excellent soups and salads. Fair prices. High quality ingredients. Convenient location

I placed an order from them on the TGTG app (too good to go) and the food that they put in the bag was skimpy. One 4"x5" container of rice and beans that had about 5 small chunks of mystery meat. One tiny roll and one muffin. It's supposed to be a regular value of about $20. read more

All the guys there are so kind & helpful I do recommend this deli , especially the owner read more

We needed a quick place to grab lunch and get out of the rain. We popped into this place, and I ordered a hot pastrami sandwich. It was delicious and extremely affordable. I was pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend this place if you're looking to grab a quick meal! read more

Got 3 bagels toasted and it literally the dough for the bagel wasn't cooked at ALL. Took a whole bite of legit dough. The cashier was so rude. Never go here read more

Straightforward NYC deli. No frills, but great selection of drinks and lunch/dinner items. Got the pastrami sandwich for 6.95, comes with free pickle, chips and a soda. Great value, can't complain. Service was quick; I'll definitely be back again. Service is as expected, no problems here either. read more

Amsterdam Cafe - a display case filled with different types of food - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

Horrible service and horrible food. Went in at 2:15am and asked for a chicken quesadilla. Got cold chicken on a cold tortilla and after spending $11 and asking to at least warm up and told "they're busy" Rude services, terrible food. Save your money and eat the garbage outside read more

Amsterdam Cafe - a chicken quesadilla with lettuce and ranch dressing - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

Terrible, terrible! Ordered a Philly cheesesteak and basically received a piece of bread and cheese. See image... Called and said I was disappointed and was told my sub looks like this because I opted out of adding on peppers and onions. Gimme a break! read more

Amsterdam Cafe - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

Good food, large portions, Reasonable prices, attention to detail with take out orders and very polite. Definitely try this place

Food was great, BUT the people are NOT friendly at all! It was like they were doing me the favor and I was an inconvenience. I thought this was like the restaurant Dick's where they purposely treat you bad. I just read other reviews where others also commented on the hospitality. Would I come back? Probably not as other businesses will gladly take my money with a smile. read more

Was looking for a quick, inexpensive lunch and Amsterdam Deli did not disappoint! The combo meal (burger, fries, and a can of soda) came to ~$9 after tax and included a lot of food! Fries were solid too. I had the veggie burger (although you can choose a beef or turkey burger as well), and while it didn't look homemade it hit the spot. Full of veggies and slightly crisp from the grill. Not a black bean burger which is a positive for me. Will be back! read more

ordered a breakfast burrito and a waterbottle and coffee. only got the burrito and when I tried to call, they won't accept the call. just keep ignoring the call or ending it. haven't been able to talk to anyone about getting a refund for the water and coffee. horrible place read more

Gross, disgusting. Overpriced abs rude, I try to support local business but this guy is not helping himself, then he complains when a chain coffee shop takes over. read more

Breakfast wraps are the bomb! Great selection of ice cream pints for the late night munchies!

Been ordering from here during Covid-19, and they consistently take too long for delivery. Although the prices are reasonable, it might be my last time due to this. read more

Amazing food and great service. Their sandwiches are always fresh and loaded up with a lot of meat.

This is wonderful place! The best breakfast in city! Prices are great and food is just delicious! Highly recommend to anyone

the owner has horrible customer service! rude and disrespectful! i ordered over the phone and when they got the bread incorrect he said it was my fault! he also said it wasnt his problem that i messed up the order. refused to give me a refund or even make it the way i wanted! i will never go here again, even the turkey was old and gray looking!! read more

I came here because I was lost and I had my 13year old in tow with attitude because he was starving. Ordered an omelette it was flat, dry and not exciting in any way, even made my stomach hurt after for a few hours. My kid had 2 dogs with fries, I tried a couple of his fries, they were pretty good. Service was decent, grill cook took away the food after I tried to reach for it thinking it wasn't mine, so I went to go pay for it first, hopeful he would give it back .. lol. Cashier then told me to get my food, I said I can't because he took it way when I reached for it! Whatever, maybe he thought I didn't look like someone that would order an omelette, who knows yet at this point I'm not sure I care. Next! read more

Corner deli that offers a wide selection of food breakfast through dinner. I particularly enjoy the make-your-own pasta combo along with the hot bar, which typically serves up chicken, pepper steak, salmon, pasta along with several vegetable sides. Their burger and fries and philly cheese combos are pretty decent. They also offer fresh salad options. A bit pricy, especially post renovation, and delivery takes awhile. read more

I had food delivered and it was cold. The fries were mushy, and the sandwich was simply not good. The chicken was char-grilled and seemed burned to me. I don't ever waste food but I couldn't eat the whole sandwich and threw it away. They seemed to have a great menu so I was excited but the food I got was simply not good. If you are looking for good quick food, I would sadly not be able to recommend this establishment. In fact, I would suggest you avoid it. read more

Neighborhood Manhattan deli with Brooklyn prices. I have been coming here for a couple years now and have gotten constantly high quality food. Best part is as a regular I always receive a warm reception. My only complaint is that I received somewhat overcooked sandwiches a few times that left a burnt aftertaste. However, the times I received an imperfect sandwich are few in number compared to the amount of times my sandwich was created to my exact liking. Overall, if you live on the UWS and are looking for that neighborhood deli experience that is hard to find in the city, this is the place for you. read more

Amsterdam Cafe - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

This is a great place for some cheap breakfast and lunch items. The prices are hard to beat and they have a wide range of sandwiches, burgers, salads, breakfast items, etc. My wife and I often come here when we're too lazy to cook but not wanting to splurge on a $30 sitdown breakfast. And they've got good iced coffee too! read more

The sandwiches here from the grill station are EXCEPTIONAL to say the least. In particular the one with chicken and pastrami. Mercy me that is one heck of a sando. Not to mention the prices of them are excellent considering they come with chips and a can of pop. Good selection of drinks and snacks overall at the deli. Very clean store. Feeling blessed and highly favored to be able to frequent this establishment read more

So this use to be a great bodega for all your needs but now the staff has changed quite a bit and so have the prices They are trying to compete with Lenny's Gourmet by introducing salads and hot food but with these changes they are jacking up prices which is NOT cool! What they are gonna end up doing is alienating the core neighborhood people while trying to cater to new clientele! read more

Sometimes this place is good and sometimes not so much. It really depends on who's working I guess because I've ordered pastas, salads and sandwiches from this place and have been super impressed, other times I've ordered the same thing and it was mediocre at best. So I guess take a chance at your own risk and see if you get one of the good ones. read more

Best bodega / deli in the neighborhood. Come here all the time for the chicken Caesar wrap and the chicken quesadilla is out of this world. Both are under $11 and come with a soda and big enough portions to share. Don't believe the bad reviews. This place is the tits and I look forward to trying other food items read more

Great breakfast sandwiches and before 11am you get a free delicious coffee or a small oj if you prefer. As previously stated, great no frills place for a cheap breakfast or late night meal after a wild night out at the local bars. There is seating here, which many delis and bodegas in area do not have. Good place to sit with your free coffee and read the newspaper if you need to get out of your tiny apartment! read more

I honestly used to love this spot... but they have really been failing me. I haven't been able to get ahold of them for days now. Their phone line rings twice and doesn't ring after that. Their online ordering system doesn't have my hot food options, so ordering there is a risk of getting things I don't want. And I can't call to fix it. So again haven't been able to order from here for a while now. read more

The attitudes in the men working in this place make my food taste nasty. I had the displeasure of overhearing a cashier make disparaging comments about a black female customer in Spanish. Same cashier ran my card without stating a total first and walked away to answer a phone order, leaving my card unattended on the counter after sending me to retrieve my "free soda." read more

This place beat out Big Nicks for my late night UWS grub spot several years ago. And is still my undisputed champion! Whether I walk in or get my Seamless on, my order is never screwed. I wish that I could clone this spot and place it in strategic places like in the Bronx, or near Nitehawk Cinema, and some train stations when the drunkie munch munch gets me down. I need a good pick up. Boom. Chopped cheese. Boom. Hot fresh coffee. Good to go. read more

Great local place for a reasonably priced bite to eat. You can get some good food without breaking the bank. This place is awesome if you're drunk and looking for some food after a night out. They have cold cuts, paninis, burgers, Philly cheesesteak, wings, gyros, salads, pasta, smoothies, sandwiches, chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks. Bagels and spreads, pastries, yogurts, sodas, juices and soups and teas and coffees. If you're hungry, come here. If you're looking for somewhere quick and easy, come here. If you have the munchies, come here. I love this place because it's quick and has what I need. The best and cleanest neighborhood deli I have found on the uws. read more

If you don't mind sandy basil in your panini, go for it. These people put the sand in sandwich. Yecchhh... :-( read more

24/7 food available at good price. The staff is very friendly. Perfect for a quick takeout. The food is ready within 5 mins. They have variety of options from sandwiches, pasta, salad, panini, burger. read more

The workers are super nice, but the owner who was at the register at the time I went, is an awful guy to costumers and his employees. He charge me more than it says at the menu, and when I told this to him, he just proceeded to yell at me and to the poor nice worker who did my meal. Other then that, as I said, the food is good. read more

I love having a 24 hr cafe, this one is good and cheap. You can get a lot of bang for your buck. They also have flowers that's open 24/7 as well. read more

Been going here for 12 years. Lost my wallet one night and the guy who's worked there for at most two years was not gracious enough to give me water, knowing I'd come back the next day with money. He sees me at least 3x per week, I'm a loyal customer. It's a shame an establishment would turn away a loyal customer who will with no doubt come back, someone who's spent thousands of dollars there. He's obviously not seasoned or business savvy enough to know what a loyal customer means in the grand scheme of things. This place has changed and is not the neighborhood place it used to be. For now on, my business will go to 82nd street who welcomes me with open arms and is always happy to see me. read more

Terrible Deli. You're better off going to Andy's deli around the corner which is much better! This place takes 20 minutes to make a sandwich, often screws up the order, and is usually overpriced. read more

One of the best places on the UWS. Order from here all the time. They are always on time and their chicken quesadilla is always amazing
