    This place is pretty good! I got a latke breakfast sandwich. Didn't realize that the default for the breakfast sandwiches was a roll and not a bialy so just keep that in mind! The sheet pan style latke was a little mushier than I would have liked but the flavor was great (I prefer a really crispy latke). The sandwich overall was filling and tasty but pretty expensive especially if you make any modifications. The staff is super nice and writing our names on the bags is a cute touch. Very minimal standing room so on a busy day it's better to take things to go.

    I had heard great things about this place, and while it was very tasty, it didn't quite live up to my expectations. I ordered the egg and latke sandwich, and made a few modifications which brought it to $18. That's pretty ridiculous for an egg sandwich, especially considering that I was subbing ingredients rather than adding them. They also still put the cheese on my sandwich even though I had ordered cream cheese instead. The latke also isn't very crispy and slides off the sandwich, so I ended up eating it separately, and it did have a very nice flavor. The service was fairly quick and the employees were nice, I liked the added touch of writing our names in bubble letters on the bags. The inside does not have any seating but has two small standing tables. It definitely is meant more for takeout, but would be nice to have a few more seating options for people coming from out of town. While I really enjoyed my sandwich, it just wasn't worth it for the price and seating situation in my opinion.

    Was craving for some bagels and decided to stop at deli desires since i have it on my list to go. Casual vibes and welcoming staff. Small place mostly to go orders. Order a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich in a caramelized onion bagel combo, it comes with a coffee and a side dill potato salad. Everything was so tasty and fresh.

    Nice small joint with a variety of bagels, spreads and bagel sandwiches. Pros: quality of the bagel and fresh ingredients -- I had the veggie deluxe. Adjacent parking lot. Friendly service. Cons: no seating inside, needed to sit at some old metal chairs/tables in what it looks like an improvised patio area in the parking lot.

    Deli Desires satisfied desires I didn't know I had. Deli Desires has been around since Covid-19 times, but I'm just discovering it now and I'm glad I did. Deli Desires came from two people who realized during Covid-19 that they wanted to deliver food to people and make them a little happier. Now Orlando doesn't have too many delis, but this one surprised me with how good the food is. Located at 715 N Fern Creek Ave Suite B, Orlando, FL 32803 near downtown Orlando and Mills Ave district. They have a small parking lot but it's not too hard to locate. When I walked in, I was greeted with bright blue decor, that New York deli counter feel, a wall of community events and happenings, and great customer service. The person who took my order was so nice and asked about my day and we just yapped while I waited for my food. They have bialys there. I've never heard of that or seen that, but it was cool to see something new. I got the latke breakfast sandwich on an onion bialys. Good gracious, it was good. It was so damn good. This sandwich is a 10/10. They packaged it like a deli and I ate it on the go. It travels well, in case you were wondering. Overall, I highly highly recommend Deli Desires and the Sunrail as a feasible form of public transportation.

    BEC - bacon, egg and cheese
    Nancy P.

    Food: they have a simple menu. I have only been there for breakfast. You can change the bread but they all look the same. When we got ours, we didn't know which ones were which. I got lucky I didn't bite into the jalapeño one. Service: quick and easy. They have a sign that says tax & gratitude. Ambiance: simple room but no real seating

    Miriana Z.

    The gentleman was very helpful and shared with me a little history on the Bialys- a delicious mix between a bagel and an english muffin. They're made in house for that authentic and delicious flavor. You can't go wrong with a classic BEC, but they have plenty of add-ons to make it your own. It's a small spot with no seating but is it really a deli if you're not standing at a high top?? Great spot for a quick and yummy breakfast!

    Corned Beer Big Mac
    Robert D.

    This place hands down makes the best breakfast sandwich I've had in Orlando. I've tried the bacon and egg on the jalapeño bialy absolutely delicious! I've also tasted the egg salad sandwhich and their version of a Big Mac made with corned beef--both were seriously good. The staff is always super nice and welcoming. A couple of things to note: there's no indoor seating it is a small location with a couple of tables you can only stand around. Also the parking lot is pretty small, so parking can be a bit of a hassle during busy times. However, they do have outdoor seating, which is a nice option when the weather it isn't a million degrees outside Highly recommend.

    Gravlax
    Allison R.

    Small interior offering take-out only. Super friendly staff, and my food came out pretty quickly even for being busy on a Saturday morning. I tried one of their seasonal lattes, the tomato leaf latte. This was probably one of the most unique lattes I've had. It had a floral and citrusy note to it, and was a bit savory on the end, almost reminding me of basil leaf. Absolutely delicious combination. I ordered the Gravlax for my meal. It was extremely messy to eat. There was a bit too much cream cheese and tomato for my liking. Everything was spilling out which made it hard to eat, and I didn't get much salmon until more in the middle. The Is was my first time having a bialy, and while the flavor was good, I wasn't a fan of the texture. I thought it was a bit too crusty and chewy to enjoy fully. Not sure I'd go back for their food but if I'm ever in the area I would 100% go try another latte.

    Kelsey H.

    Wow! Delicious. Little hole in the wall deli that serves coffee and sandwiches. No seating inside so it is strictly to-go only. The staff was wonderful, gave me the whole run down when I came in. Offered many recommendations. I ended up getting a sandwich and adding a latke and cream cheese. One of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had! Highly recommend

    My favorite spot for a breakfast sandwich. They never disappoint. They are pricey but always worth it and I have tried several different sandwiches. The people taking the orders are always friendly and will give you great suggestions. Your sandwich will be consistently delicious and fresh every single time. My favorite coffee is the Garden party latte, you can definitely taste the floral notes.

    Still delicious! Everything is always fresh and the staff is friendly. The orange latte is my favorite coffee drink.

    Latkes sandwich
    Apryl C.

    I want to start with the good stuff- the food is amazing! The lady taking orders was kind and patient while we looked over the menu. It is a Small little take out spot but there are some tables off in a courtyard you can sit at if you'd like. I had the latkes sandwich and my husband and son both had the bacon egg and cheese sandwich. They were each roughly around $12. Which may seem high to some but I have zero issue paying for good quality food, and this was fresh and good quality. My only complaint is the price they charged for drinks. A can of basic Diet Coke was $4 and their drip coffee was also nearly $6. I feel like this is an area where the owner could pass some savings onto their customers but that is not the case here.

    They don't sell bagels, they sell bialys. It's a sandwich shop, not a bagel shop.

First, the staff deserves credit--their energy and kindness were 10/10. The person I interacted with was friendly and welcoming. The food itself was good, but I was disappointed that my order was made incorrectly. I specifically asked for only tomatoes and pickles on my burger, but it came with cheese and a sauce. Luckily, I was planning to eat just the patty, so I was able to rinse it off, but if I had intended to eat it as a regular burger, it would have completely ruined the meal as the bun was covered in the sauce. My sub was excellent, and I appreciated the staff's sauce recommendations. However, I was surprised that the homemade sauce came with a $1.10 charge for each side of sauce--that feels pretty excessive. To make matters worse, I didn't even receive one of the sauces I paid for. I understand they are homemade but it is a 1.5 oz container... My biggest disappointment, though, was the chips. It may sound minor, but when a meal is priced and advertised as a complete meal, you'd expect a reasonable portion. The "side" of chips was literally about seven whole chips' worth, mostly crushed into pieces. It was especially disappointing when compared to the portion of fries. Overall, the food has a lot of potential, and the staff was fantastic, but the incorrect order, extra sauce charges, missing sauce, and tiny chip portion really took away from the experience. My advice: upgrade the chips so you actually get a side, double-check your order before you leave (even if there's no one else in there) , and be aware that the sauces cost extra.

I would definitely come back here just to order that again. Since it was a holiday it was a little busy but the service was friendly. They were doing raffle tickets and I did have to remind the guy at the register to give us tickets after ordering. Inside is really cool. I love how they decorated the place.

From the moment we walked in, the staff at the front entrance was incredibly welcoming and even took the time to show us around the market. The ambience feels like a neighborhood Italian shop, with shelves lined with imported products from Italy that make it fun to browse while you wait. It's a small, casual space that feels authentic rather than overly polished. We ordered the Italian sub with sun-dried tomatoes instead of the standard toppings, along with the chicken cutlet sandwich with vodka sauce. Both sandwiches had excellent flavor and tasted fresh. The sun-dried tomatoes were a great addition to the Italian, although I do think it could have used a little more meat. Considering the price, I expected it to be a bit more generously filled. The chicken cutlet sandwich was delicious overall, but the cutlet itself was a little dry. I asked for extra sauce, and initially the employee seemed reluctant and tried to charge me for it. After I showed him how dry the sandwich was, he gave me the sauce, which made a huge difference and brought the sandwich together. That interaction was really my only service-related critique. Overall, the quality of the ingredients is excellent, the sandwiches are satisfying, and the market has a unique charm you don't find at most sandwich shops. While it's definitely on the pricier side, the authentic atmosphere and quality make it a place I'd happily come back to. I'd love to work my way through more of the menu on future visits.

I will be going there after every Saturday hike forever more. The lists did not lie. Stasio's delivered the best sandwiches I have had in Florida. Walking in, I must have looked confused because I heard a knowing voice ask if it was my first time in. I admitted that it was and a delightful employee walked over to me to show me around. Stasio's has a deli counter, a coffee counter, and several shelves with Italian foods. I quickly learned that sandwiches are ordered at the deli and brought out to the waiting area when ready. Coffee is ordered at a cash register and the coffee is poured or prepared after purchase. Any prepared foods, together with sandwiches and fresh bread, are paid for at one of two registers. Despite the crowd -- and it was crazy busy -- everything was remarkably efficient and the staff showed no sign of stress. I ordered an Egg and Pepper sandwich and a Caprese Sandwich. Bread is made onsite and it was as fresh and delicious. (I ordered a loaf of Semolina/Italian bread and brought it home, where it was eaten within a few hours. At $4.99 for a loaf, it is an amazing value and a great treat!). Both the egg and pepper and the Caprese were prepared simply and to perfection. Fresh ingredients pack a lot of flavor and my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Amazingly, I don't think Stasio's adds any fats to their sandwiches -- The egg in the egg and pepper, and the mozzarella in the Caprese do all the work. There are seats at a bar along the front window and a few tables outside, but I chose to eat in my car. At a peak time (like Noon on a Saturday), there was not a lot of available seating but it did seem that chairs opened up fairly quickly. After a 10 mile hike, I just did not think it was fair to anyone who might be seated next to me to have to sit next to me! No photos but others have shared enough that you can picture the experience!

If I was eating this sandwich by myself, I would've asked for bacon on the sandwich, which definitely would have made it a top shelf turkey sandwich in my opinion. Being an Italian deli, the majority of the sandwiches do use pork of one kind or another where they looked and sounded quite tasty with a number of house specialties on the menu. The next time I am here, I will definitely make sure to order one of their specialty sandwiches to give this business a much fairer assessment and probably the fifth star that I so wanted to give.
