Turkey and Lg Roast Beef & Turkey
Tori G.

The service is good and the sandwiches are pretty decent. I do think the bread is a little thick, but nevertheless, the overall presentation of the food and customer service is very very great. I highly recommend this place if you're in the Foggy Bottom area and wants to grab a quick sandwich for lunch.

The Italian Sub- Small
Shawn T.

Ordered the small Italian to go with dressing on the side. It came as ordered. Packed with meat, lettuce, cheese and tomato. Had a very good taste and was super fresh. Would order again.

We scattered to grab some food while in the Western Market, I picked Capo. I am attracted to Italian subs so when I saw that on the overhead menu, that's what I ordered. My order taker / sandwich maker got the job done. While it wasn't the best sub I've ever had it was pretty good. This Capo Italian Deli is a small place with some common tables in front of the business.

Maple Honey Turkey Sub- Small

The sub was great and you can't beat the price either. The bread was fresh and ingredients all tasted amazing together.

I finally got my hands on a FAUCI POUCHY! PASSIONFRUIT MARGARITA - tequila, Chacho, passionfruit, mango, lime, agave, spice (I'm sipping this one as I type. Woo, Chile!) THE ORIGINAL - vodka, elderflower, mint lemonade, grapefruit OLD FASHIONED (not a pouchy) - Bourbon, sugar, angostura and orange bitters I was in the area and decided to grab some boozy sip-ups TO GO. Threw them in the freezer as soon as I got home. I couldn't wait for some slushy goodness. Will be back soon to check out a few of their cold cuts, hot subs, and desserts. __ IG: @f.hux I #yelp and I know things.

Sm California Cheesesteak
Anne-Olive N.

GW students are blessed to have so many options to eat so close to campus! I ordered the small California cheese steak and was shocked at the size because it was bigger than I thought it would be. This is a definitely a nice sized portion for lunch. The California cheesesteak comes with the lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. The sub wasn't the best cheesesteak I've had, but it did the job. If the steak was seasoned, the sub would be a 5/5. The sesame bread is def a nice added touch. Great customer service and I would go back to try something different.

Sm Meatball Parmigiana
Erica S.

I placed an order via UberEats for a small meatball parmigiana sub. The sub was delivered timely but it's missing marinara sauce. Just a dry meatball and cheese sub. Tried calling Capo and was the lady who answered the phone was initially dismissive. Kept asking if I'd contacted UberEats. I explained my issue wasn't with the delivery but with the food. She spoke to a manager who questioned my claim because the meatballs are supposed to be in a container with marinara sauce. I was also told to contact UE for options. No offers for resolution!

Lg Capo Special
Sebastian B.

I went to the Capo Deli in Western Market. It was very clean and staff were very nice. I'm from Jersey so I've had my fair share of Italian Subs over the years. This sub was good, but I wouldn't say it's one of the better Italian subs I've had. The bread was very good and so was the meat, but I felt there was something missing even though I added some mayo. When I first bite into an Italian sub I get an immediate taste of the oil and vinegar while also getting those sharp onions into the mix. I didn't get that with this sub. Overall a good sub.

Small spinach wrap
Sung S.

One of the best delis around! I am not a huge sandwich/deli person, but I really enjoyed Capo. I ordered my own small spinach wrap with honey ham, capicola, provolone cheese, sweet roasted peppers, sun dried tomatoes, onions, lettuce, mayo, and honey mustard. I don't know if the combination was just superb or if the deli is just great, but it worked. They weren't shy about putting in a lot of the ingredients--very generous with the amount of meat. I especially loved the sun dried tomatoes and sweet roasted peppers, it's worth the extra charge. I only had half the small wrap and it filled me up. Definitely going back!

An Italian sandwich the size of Texas... sign me up!…read more I went into this market when I was exploring Georgetown one day and I naively ordered an Italian sandwich and once they received it I realized it was big enough to feed a family. I found the cutest little park bench and decided to dig in. Needless to say I had left overs but I could have found a way to eat this whole sandwich because it was that good! Every topping was homemade and you could tell. Def a must stop in DC.

I'm a bit torn on this one…read more I stumbled across Stachowski's while looking for a unique local spot for lunch. The sandwiches looked epic and the photos of the place looked adorable for a local joint. We walked over from our hotel in Georgetown and were overwhelmed by the sandwich choices. Caught between the Grinder and the Pastrami, we went with the employee's suggestion for the latter. About 5 minutes later we were handed a wrapped sandwich the size of a football. We found a quiet spot to unwrap and enjoy it and dug in. Frankly, I wouldn't order it again, and I think we would have enjoyed the grinder more. It was just a huge pile of meat on pumpernickel bread with mustard. Flavor was meh. Neither of us was overwhelmed for nearly $25. Props for the cute European goods in the shop, though, and the employees were courteous and friendly. But next time I'll look elsewhere for lunch.

Once I heard there was a deli with a pickle bar within walking distance of our DC headquarters, I…read moreknew I had to go. My colleague who told me about this place jumped to join me for lunch. I wasn't anticipating a nice dining room to dine in, but there it was so we did. Although it was uncomfortably warm in there. Must have been something wrong with their A/C because they couldn't possibly always have it so warm, especially in the middle of summer. I ordered The Clevelander and she had The Mel. And of course we hit their awesome pickle bar! Why doesn't every deli in the universe have a pickle bar?! The sandwiches are piled high with meat and so delicious. Several complaints about mine, however: the menu said it comes with mayo and provolone. It came out with no spread at all so I was brought mayo packets to apply myself, which is way less than ideal with a huge already assembled sandwich. And the brand new server (on her second day there) came back after we ordered and asked if I wanted cheese. I mentioned I thought it listed a cheese on the menu, which she confirmed. But then I ended up getting charged extra for the cheese that my sandwich was supposed to come with. Kind of lame. And while my friend was asked if she wanted hers toasted, I was not. I didn't think twice about it until mine came out toasted, which I neither asked for or wanted. Lastly, the sandwich was also supposed to come with "fresh cranberry spread" and if there was any on my sandwich, it wasn't detectable. But I decided not to even mention it because I didn't want to deconstruct my sandwich a second time. Regardless of these hiccups, I would certainly consider returning.

I heard good things about their sandwiches. My go to is normally Mangialardo's on Pennsylvania Ave in SE DC or Carl's Subbs on Rhode Island Ave in NE DC. I think I will stick to both of them next time. The staff was very friendly and helpful to me as a first timer but the sandwich was totally disapointing! NOT worth it, at all. I ordered a 9 inch capicola, ham, and cheese sub on the hard roll. The roll was very good and fresh but I couldn't taste the cheese or meat in the sandwich because there wasn't enough of it. I tasted the bread, the toppings of lettuce, tomato and onions. I decided to deconstruct the sandwich and found exactly 4 very thinly sliced pieces of meat and 2 very thinly sliced pieces of cheese as pictured clearly in the photographs. I also noticed that the they have different prices for the same type of meats. For example, they have a $29.99 per pound Capicola and one for $9.99 a pound. I asked which went on the sandwich and of course it was the cheaper one. That wasn't surprising and getting my sandwich back to the office. I decided not to eat the rest of the meatless sandwich and just take the loss. I wouldn't come back nor would I recommend a friend to try it

Delicious gourmet sandwiches - the March monthly special veggie sandwich, The Truth hit the spot!…read moreThe sandwich shop is tucked inside The Gatsby hotel with only indoor solo seating on cozy bar stools with a window view and some outdoor seating in front of the stadium. It's primarily a take-out shop with a dozen or sandwiches and a few sides. The Truth veggie sandwich was bursting with flavor with sweet potato, crispy eggplant, juicy portobello mushoroom, and creamy lentil aioli stuffed between whole wheat bread. It was so good that I didn't even miss not cheese! Initially, I thought about adding cheese, but glad I didn't and stuck with the classic sandwich. By the time I made it through a couple of bites of the 2nd half of my sandwich, I was stuffed and didn't have any room or a craving for chips or fries that I typically get. It was a simple sandwich with quality ingredients made well. Crossing my fingers that the veggie The Truth sandwich stays on the menu and looking forward to coming back to try other sandwiches!

Unlike most places that slice their meat, this is more chopped for lack of a better descriptor. And it makes all the difference. Its perfectly seasoned and so moist and tender, it almost melts on the tongue. The bread is delicious too, as is the chocolate egg cream! Do yourself a favor and go!! No matter where you get your favorite reuben (even if its nyc or brooklyn), this will unseat it!

Their bagels are really good, and you can order ahead online, which seems to be the move if you're grabbing something and want to be in and out quickly. If you're in Dupont and want something easy, hearty, and actually good, this is such a great little spot. They also recently did a collaboration with Saku Saku Bakery, which I LOVED and resulted in me leaving with entirely too many treats. It sounds like they may continue doing things together, and I really hope they do because it was such a fun addition. The owner, or at least the main guy who always seems to be running things when I'm there, is incredibly friendly and talkative. The staff seems to rotate, but everyone I've encountered has always been willing to help. Just a really great neighborhood place that does exactly what you want a good bodega to do: feed you, sell you the random thing you forgot you needed, and make the neighborhood a little better by being there.
