The food came quickly and was delicious and very filling. Well, the pickles I had from the complimentary pickle bar when we were seated might have helped temper my hunger a bit. Three types of pickle, sauerkraut and delicious sliced beets. Yum. Service is friendly and good.

My wife and I are regular customers and there was nothing regular about our lunch today…read more There were plenty of booths available and we were seated right away, that's where the good part ends. I ordered my regular, pastrami sandwich on rye and a cup of chicken matzoh ball soup. The soup came out lukewarm and without much taste, seconds later came my pastrami which by the time I finished my lukewarm soup the pastrami was also lukewarm - and very greasy. The pickle bar had dry sauerkraut and the pickles were mushy. Got home 8 hours ago and I'm still sick as a dog. My wife ordered her regular turkey sandwich with Russian dressing- turkey is always dry but this tasted old, old and dry. She threw out the 1/2 sandwich she couldn't eat. Even the iced tea was off- too strong and warm even with the ice cubes in it- I guess it was just brewed. Our server was mostly M.I.A.

I'm already looking forward to coming back to try more sandwiches, grab a coffee drink, and of course, more cannoli!

My boyfriend raves about their croissant sandwiches, but my favorite is the fresh mozzarella, tomato, sausage, egg, and pesto English muffin sandwich.

Actually, it's the only thing I've tried and I can never muster up the courage to try something new because I love it so much ha. The first visits were during the COVID lockdown, and when we went in today, the lady (not sure but she might be the owner?) recognized us and we started talking about our families.

Aren't pickles complementary these days? *shrugs* I will be returning to this deli in the near future and I will be sure to inquire about the pickles. :)
