Pepperoni Steak & Cheese
Richard O.

Good local sub and pizza spot! Upscale in terms of offerings and modern space ambiance plus they have wine selection on display right in the restaurant for customers to choose. I have tried a few of their subs and pizzas which are all on the pricey side. It hits the spot when I want an authentic slice as it comes close to a New York slice which reminds me of home. Service is great from staff and there's plenty of parking in front of the location.

Slightly blurry but too excited to start nomming!  12" pepperoni steak sub and 12" Metro Italian.
Penny F.

Absolutely the best Italian deli I've had in NoVA in the almost 30 years I've lived here off and on. Can't believe this is my first review of the Alban location, though FAR from my first order with them. Used to order from their original location when my parents first moved to Woodbridge, VA......then at the Ft Belvior location which is when I fell utterly in love with the Pepperoni Cheesesteak and Metro Italian subs. It's been 5 years since my last visit simply because I no longer work in or near any of their locations, but we ordered via Doordash tonight. 12" Pepperoni cheesesteak with LTO, spicy mustard and hot peppers, one 12" Metro with everything, one 12" Metro with LTO and hot peppers. I knew my hot sub wouldn't be delivered hot, but honestly, I've had it lukewarm and cold and hot before and it's just as good in almost every form. They labeled each individual sub *perfectly* and we were just as impressed as we always are. Haven't tried the pizza yet, will save that for an in-person visit rather than food delivery since we're 7 miles away. Can't recommend them highly enough, not only because great food but also always great customer service no matter WHICH location (and I've visited most of them) and extra love for family owned business!

Vegan Chicken Parm Sub, Caprese Side Salad
Kenny M.

Amazing find, family owned, friendly staff, good mix of vegetarian/vegan creations on menu, well worth the drive. Got the vegetarian/vegan chicken parm with a side caprese salad. Fresh herbs and spices packed with every bite. Texture aside, could really compete with the real thing here. Can't wait to try out all their plant based options :)

I've been here a number of times in the last 12 months. I finally convinced my partner to try it…read more3 weeks ago ago. She loved it! Yesterday we needed to grab a quick lunch and she suggested we go there. The entrance to the parking lot is a mess, but the sandwiches are always first rate. They even have Coke in the original glass bottles without the corn syrup! My goal is to eat everything on the menu. The food is always fresh with organic ingredients wherever possible. The service is great, and the space is always sparkling clean. I'll always look here first whenever possible. My partner finally said to me " I don't know why we old go anywhere else, this place is easily the best."

We had an extremely troubling experience with the new ownership of Sandwich Republic. We paid…read moreapproximately $30 using tap-to-pay on our phone. Our bank showed that the transaction went through, but the owner insisted that he had not received the payment. He asked us to run the card again, suggesting that if we were charged twice, perhaps our bank would credit one of the charges. We called our bank, and the bank confirmed that we had already been charged and told us they could not simply reverse the transaction. At that point, we decided not to take our food and to leave. Because the owner was claiming he hadn't received our payment, I specifically asked him to simply write on a piece of paper that we were leaving without receiving our order. I wanted documentation showing that we had not received any food in case we needed to dispute the charge. He refused to put that in writing. He repeatedly told us that this had never happened in his 20 years in business, even though this restaurant is under new ownership. When we continued trying to resolve it, he told us it wasn't his problem, told us to call the police, and refused to work with us. We ultimately disputed the charge with our bank because we were charged approximately $30 and received no food. What makes this situation even more upsetting is that, according to the information we subsequently received through our dispute, the merchant responded by claiming that we DID receive the food. We did not.

The staff is super. Susanne outstanding!…read more Our latest sandwich favorite is the BLT, bacon, spring mix, and genuinely tasty tomatoes. It comes with avocado and mayo, neither of which we like, and I ordered without them. Unfortunately we received avocado. I brought them back and explained the mix-up. Susanne, one of the servers, took them and came to our table with fresh sandwiches. I bit into mine and tasted onion and it had the mayo herb spread on it. I debated throwing it away for about 30 seconds but brought it back and Susanne (susie) who had replaced the first sandwiches cheerfully said "I've got you" and replaced it with a new one, no mayo, no avocado, no attitude, and I really was so grateful and of course enjoyed every bite. My sister loves the chocolate chip cookie and when they realized they were out Susanne intervened and said a new batch was coming and would be ready in 20 minutes. So my sister and I ate and by the time we were finished I went to the counter and Susanne brought out the still warm cookie. My sister is handicapped and it's one of the quicker, brighter restaurants as I can open the door closer to the handicapped parking for her which saves her steps she would need to reach the main entrance. She gets a booth and i order the food and drinks. I'm given a number to display on the table so we can have the drinks and chat and the server brings the food. We get to be leisurely since it's never been crowded when we go, usually in the afternoon. Someone always checks to see how we're doing and clear any dishes sometimes even getting refills for us. Kudos to one of our favorite restaurants. Thank you Susanne for your great service! They have a handicapped stall in the restroom and my sister is able to go alone on her walker. There are two or three handicapped spots located in front of a connected store with an accessible curb and the sidewalk leads to McAlisters, no street crossing involved.

A modern take on an old deli, the layout was efficient and seating choices were ample and varied in type.You can stand in line to order or digitally from your table. Lots of deil food and drink choices. I got a half Cuban sandwich and half club with chips and ice tea. Slight wait in the food however that was made up for by the quality of both sandwiches. A wait person comes around and offers drink refills. Overall very good experience and I would go back again.

Capo Italian Deli - Old Town Alexandria…read more I reviewed our new Old Town neighbor - Capo Italian Deli - early in 2026. Time for an update. The deli is outstanding. Taking up a tiny footprint on the N. Washington Avenue thoroughfare, a few seconds from King Street, the deli delivers both hot and cold deli entrees, soft drinks, and salads. There's maybe half a dozen tables inside and a couple of tables outside, but from what I have seen thus far, most of the trade is with carry-out service, drawing from the excellent reputation Capo brought with it as it arrived in Old Town (the restaurant has siblings in Shaw NW, and Western Market in the District, Tyson's Corner in Vienna, VA, Annapolis and Potomac, MD). Fresh Philly rolls for those seeking a traditional hero sandwich, with go-to seasonings and all of the essential protein groups. My favorite is a large half roast beef half turkey with lettuce, tomato, and mayo (I skip the Italian dressing, which is part of the default, and I skip the cheese). I can and have made this $18 sandwich last three meals (so I ask them to cut the sandwich into three pieces), and the ingredients stay fresh for the next 24 hours. The last time I did this the sandwich fed me from 4:45 a.m. to 9 p.m., as I served as an election officer at one of Alexandria's polling places. Neat, trim, and completely satisfying. Just a point of concern: given its location, the opportunity to double-park while picking up an order seems to be just too tempting. This location, however, cannot over the long term sustain double-parkers. The deli is about 100 feet from the intersection of King Street and N. Washington Street. There is a dedicated lane for cars seeking to park adjacent to the deli. And then there are two northbound lanes on N. Washington Street. That's it - just two lanes serving one of the busiest intersections in Old Town. If a delivery-service car pulls up alongside one of the parked cars, all hell will break loose by drivers who suddenly find a delivery vehicle double-parking in front of Capo, leaving but one northbound lane open for however long it takes for the delivery agent to gather the order and beat it out of there. This happens with remarkable frequency, starting at about 11 a.m. and running throughout the day. That's not going to make good neighbors of Capo's nearby shops. Alexandria Parking has its work cut out for it, but here the rule prohibiting double-parking has to be enforced - it's both a safety issue and an issue of common courtesy. Doesn't matter if you think you'll just be in and out of the deli in seconds. We know it doesn't work that way, not always, and here - not even often. More often than not the double-parker will be creating a traffic hazard just by parking alongside a parked car in front of the deli. Please, don't do this.

I got a 6" Roasted Turkey sub and the oreo mousse. The mousse was delicious but the sandwich was…read morelackluster. The bread seemed stale and the dressing could use a little more flavor. It was just a regular sandwich. Prices were extremely high for it to be a normal sub. I will say the portion size is good and they get points for not using mayo. Service was quick.

Yes....whenever I'm out here in Va side or close ....It's a beacon to stop by and actually treat…read moreyourself for something out of the past ...wanting now. A hidden meal...unknown but remembered always from 80s. The Virginian sandwich.....ohh god ham turkey bacon cheddar mayo with a side onions . It must requested and enjoyed always.

EDITED (see below)…read more WAY overpriced. Reuben was good, but meat lacked seasoning. Seriously?! At these prices!!! It was scorching hot when it comes out. Never had to wait for a deli sandwich to cool down before eating. Really disliked having to stare at my sandwich at a deli of all places, waiting for it to cool while I'm starving and the lunch clock is ticking. I got places to go. The thin bread falls apart too easily and combined with the pizza-commercial-like cheese pull after each bite with cheese hanging from my mouth to the sandwich, it was functionally very MESSY and difficult to sandwich to eat. I don't like eating sandwiches with a fork. And dont get me started with $10 small sized milkshake. It was an absolutely average milkshake. With a thin straw easily clogged. These prices are INSANE!!! I knew the prices were high going in, but I thought the quality and portions would match. There is a significant disparity between them, and I should be getting twice the amount of sandwich for these prices. Lastly the whole flow is very weird. The interactive website-menu is a disaster and confusing. It took over 10 minutes online just trying to find the menu before I arrived thinking I'd order at front counter and instead was told to take a seat. This really doesnt call for a waitress, an unnecessary markup (tips) to an already insanely expensive meal. Its like pseudo restaurant but its really just a deli sandwich shop. EDIT to owners reply: For a deli sandwich to be piping hot is unnecessary and its not a good thing. It suggests poorly trained cooks. It was a warning for other customers so they don't burn their tongue like I did on a freaking deli sandwich. Instead of leaning into the free customer feedback, they chose to brag about their flaws. So the problems are admitted features, not flaws, and further supports my evaluation. "Tiny portions relative to price." Does that make it more clear? While owner glosses over the huge portion sizes in photos on website/menu that are false advertising, and photos were only reason I thought the high prices might be justified before coming here. I only saw the actual (tiny) portion size when my food was delivered that I realized menu photos online had deceived me and the prices were insane for that reason. $21+ for a 1/4 lb half deli sandwich!?!? Insane! And centimeter-thick bread slices are also considered tiny portions. Nobody disputed weight of meat. Strawman. And it wasnt obvious the weight of meat on the already mentioned difficult to read website. Nobody's reading the fine print on a menu!! If it wasn't clear for me its likely unclear for others. should not have a cheese pull that requires utensils on a sandwich. Should not need utensils to eat a sandwich. Deli sandwiches shouldn't burn your mouth. And nobody disputed your sandwiches weren't "cooked fresh". Strawman.

My boyfriend had introduced me to a McAlister's in Indiana, so when I'd heard we were getting one right here in Burke (yes, I'm aware of the GMU one - I hate the Braddock road traffic light, what can I say), I swung by. This place is always hoppin' but they work that line quickly. I've been here - like, what - once a week since they opened earlier this year? I think my ordered was messed up once? (if you could hear my voice you'd understand why - no one can hear me... darn these vocal chords). So that's like a RECORD - even Chick-Fil-A has messed it up more than McAllies (and that's sayin' a lot - Chick is ALWAYS on the ball). Want my recs - current feeling the Turkey BLT. Don't sleep on the French Dip sammie (their most popular). I don't like brownies, but their brookies have me in a CHOKE HOLD.
