    Great deli. Long lineups because the sandwiches are just that good. Nice cheese options to go with all the deli meats.

    This is the closest thing to a New York Deli you can find on the West Coast. I was ecstatic.

    Good sandwiches but don't order 3 or more because they will royalty fuck it up. Not impressed, it's making sandwiches not rocket science.

    I had ham and summer sausage with the smoked Gouda and sweet mustard, it was delicious and the bread was soft and fresh.

    Tony's Meats & Deli - Slimy and smells so rotten.

    We planned an early christmas dinner and my mother insisted on purchasing meat from Tony's which we…read moredid. They didn't have any turkey which was not an issue so we went for the chicken. When we got back, we prepped everything including stuffing and when we pulled out the chicken, we could smell it was rotted off the flesh. It was slimy and the smell took over the kitchen. How they didn't catch that is truly mystifying. It was upsetting when we are about to cook our Christmas dinner. When my mother called and informed them of the rotten chicken, they said bring it back with a receipt. They weren't bothered by the fact that they sold rotten chicken and didn't apologize or try to do right by a customer who has supported them for nine years. Their only concern was a receipt which they never provided. Needless to say, I suggested my mom file a report with the health department ( which she has now done) and I'm sharing the customer service experience here. Accidents can happen which I understand. Terrible customer service is a whole other thing. I personally, I would never shop here on that merit alone. If they can't be bothered to fix the issue, I can't be bothered to spend money there. Good luck with the health department. Will post the inspection report later.

    Great Deli. Service excellent and a great selection of cold cuts and fresh meats as well…read more Definitely come again they are helpful, well stocked and great food. Mary

On our way to Tappen with empty stomachs we stopped at their Vernon location for a sandwich. Both craving BLT's the lovely K, thanks to Yelp saw that they had that offering. We pulled in, parked, and entered the store. It's always a treat to go in as the store is well stocked, well lit and always clean. The young man that helped us at the counter was courteous and informed us of the soups that were available that day. Borscht I think might be a staple here, and the other offering was Mulligatawny, which we have made at home. Our soup and sandwiches ordered with the choice of back, or side bacon, we went to the bistro area to await our lunch. Prior to stepping away however our bacon was cut fresh from the side. Who does that? Needless to say our sandwiches and soup were delicious, and from the looks of it we weren't the only ones that have discovered this gem. Another redo while in Kelowna or Vernon? You betcha, and we can't wait!

After lunch we spent about $75 in the deli and had some of the best meats, sausage rolls and pepperoni sticks we've ever had! My only complaint is that they're so far away from where we live!
