Had an amazing meal at Gotham's Deli today! I ordered the 12" chicken parm sandwich with a slice of chocolate cake and both were absolutely delicious. This was my second time coming to Gotham's Deli but it definitely hit different today (in the best way possible). I'm so glad I got a full sandwich so I could enjoy the second half for lunch tomorrow. If you ever find yourself in downtown Smithfield, this is the place to go to. The workers were so kind and the decorations are so nice. I'm from New York and I loved seeing all the Mets stuff on the walls. I'll definitely be coming back ASAP!

Check This Place Out!!!!!! *sounds the trumpet* NY overload!! Haha, Love it!! This sandwich shop will bring a smile to your face. I don't know where they get, or if they make, the Rye bread but MANNNNN was it good; not dense and/or dry. The sandwiches are on point!! Great ratios of meat, cheese, toppings, and condiments. The selections of sandwiches are big as well, from Ham, Turkey, Veggie, Chicken, Roast Beef, Signature, Italian, Hot Dogs, annnnnnd Box lunches!!!!! Oh, they have a jar of huge pickles, too!!!! Today, we ordered the Dark Knight and Dr. K, which you can get with Chips and a drink. Both sandwiches were gone in a matter of minutes. Gotham Deli sits downtown Smithfield, with available street parking. Inside is long and narrowish with booth seating. They have a fountain drink station with the best Dr. Pepper to carbonation ratio, at least they did today!!! Oh my goodness, those 23 flavors were rich.

Dr. K whole sandwich

Ordered a Dr. K sandwich and what a disappointment! It consisted of pastrami, turkey, cheddar, onions, mustard & mayonnaise. The picture I posted has pastrami AND turkey, and it looks like barley any deli meat is on it. I come from the New York/ New Jersey area and was excited to see a piece of home here in NC. For $12 they give you two pieces of pastrami. I felt like I was eating a mustard and mayo hero with a minuscule side of pastrami & turkey. They are lucky there are no other deli's around here to compete with. This is a shame! I will say, the deli meat was good quality, the decor was top notch, and the rip off was real.

Amazing deli located literally downtown Smithfield. You walk in and it's very much a New York delicatessen vibe. I placed an order over the phone and let them know when I arrived, and it was just about 10-15 minutes until I received my food. My party ordered a tuna melt, brass knuckles, Mr met, and the Hudson. The total was just shy of $57 for the 4 full whole sandwiches. I ended up receiving a tuna sub instead of the melt, but it was still delicious. Everything was flavorful, filling, and huge! I would love to come back again soon!

Bauer Ave Sandwich

This is my favorite deli! I've been eating at this restaurant for over 15 years and haven't had anything bad. I usually get the Bauer Ave sub but I've tried just about everything on the menu. I highly recommend this place. Great food and atmosphere. Even being a Red Sox fan, it's still a great place.

The NASTY woman taking the order for the lunch sandwich yelled at us saying f the grill is clean!…read moreReally? Needless to say, the sandwich went out in the garbage. Ms. NASTY WHISPERED to the young man hyped up something and you see what I got. Not even 3 slices of meat. I am so disgusted. "Big Steve" never should have sold his wonderful family business to this company! They are Not people friendly. And the food obviously by this picture is way below sub par standard's! We will Never go back there again and this will also be on social media.

First of all, I gotta say I LOVE the food here! I think that's really important to consider if you…read morewant to come here. However, we have been coming for several years now since moving close by (it was formerly Steve's) and the service here is incredibly SLOW. There are just so many things that don't make sense. Staff will take maybe one or two orders at a time and practically fully complete them before taking the next order, leaving guests standing there for so long. I understand it gets busy here, but there HAS to be a better system. When it was formerly Steve's, they had a ticket pull system which seemed to work way better. The staff also don't seem to care about their appearance WHATSOEVER. One particular individual has an almost entirely bleached t-shirt with bleached hand prints on it...does the owner not supply new shirts for the staff?!?! 8/10 times that I order here, my food is completely wrong. Sometimes I even have to repeat myself multiple times just to get what I'm saying to be written down on the order sheet...it's nonsense. Honestly, I'd rather leave a lower review, but the bagel sandwiches are just phenomenal in my opinion when I get what I asked for on it! It's not the food here that sucks, it's the service! If the food tastes amazing I'm still coming, but I really wish the new owner could figure out something to get things moving quicker and the staff caring more about their appearance! I'm happy to update my review in the future if the service improves. Lastly, there really needs to be a blower above the door to keep flies out. The flies hanging around all those bagels is less than appetizing..
