It's so far ahead of all delis and sandwich spots you've been. This is Long Island's gem. Five stars only is an injustice. It's one of the country's finest spots. It's what George Washington hoped for when he crossed the Delaware. It's what Qin Shi Huangdi believed would come when he unified China. It's what Moses split the Red Sea for. If aliens really existed, they'd be spotted here. If I ate one a day I'd gain 2 pounds a day and that's fine. I wouldn't care. 400 lbs? Ok. Bring it on, I say. Don't test me. As I sit on the John - Delta forcing out a few nukes - I think to myself... oh what a wonderful world. What a wonderful world I live in that I could experience the (and a) Gasm. The Anthony Kay. The Steven Matz. The Boone. The list goes on and on. The amount of underwear I've gone through from ordering the Gasm. Worth it. The M&M cookies on the counter that look at me as if I'm the newest bombshell on the island... oggling and boggling baby. The rumor is these guys churn out millions of cutlets a year. And that's just for me. - Sidebar: Weak sauce LB. Weak. Don't fall into the dad jokes just yet. Don't embarrass me in front of my people. Don't do it. - Anyways. As a poor young man(not that my circumstances have changed) I used to save up my measly funds for just one sandwich on the weekend. It would consume me all week and then I'd consume it in mere minutes. Every time me and my rapscallion crew would come we'd be certain that we'd eat half there and then eat the half later or save the rest for the week. Others had self control to stick to the plan. But I did not. And I'm proud of that. I'm proud of the man I've become. But not proud enough. For one day... one day... I'll go to Se-Port and I'll order The Linguini B. Only on that day, will I be allowed to die. To escape the brilliance of the world and head to the distraction of darkness. Until then - There is much to do. People to influence. Persuasion to persuade. Lust to lunge for. Sandwiches to feast on. The glory of Se-Port. I live a tender distance from this master factory of a deli; however, it's one of the few pieces in this world worth traveling a ridonk distance for. I will walk the Whitestone Bridge to be reacquainted. I would slosh around in the sewage of the Sound to make my way to this Mecca. I am currently working on my masters in astrophysics solely with the purpose of conjugating and coagulating a way to build the first wormhole - From my bed, straight to the parking lot of Seport. Few failed attempts, so far, but thankfully I'm not self-testing. Don't report me. Jokes on you... I'm closer than you'd think. Well. I'm sure you get my notes in the mail, so I'll wrap this up. One day, my love. One day, again, as we had it before. You and me, on the water, whisking the waves with the palms our feet. Our luscious hair sweeping the wind. Stopping time with the strength of our shared gazes. Our hands interlocked, just like our shared destinies. Yours tenderly and truthfully - LB.

It's a deli that has become extremely popular due to social media sharing…read more It is clean, there is plenty of space to sit and they have an immense number of specialty sandwiches that are posted on boards all around the counter. They serve hot food as well as standard sandwiches and they stuff the sandwiches quite a bit, almost too much. The service at the counter is always friendly when they take my order. The issue is, they are extremely overpriced. A bologna sandwich on a simple roll and a seltzer should not be approximately $20. The chicken cutlets are microwaved when they are ordered and they just aren't good and they are very pricy. Also, they don't sell drinks in cans, which would be a bit cheaper because a bottle of soda for $4 is just not fair. If you want a standard deli sandwich, at a reasonable price, I'd try a different deli in the area.

It was expensive, but it was just what I was looking for..I had even considered going to Manhattan, but this was perfect. A few weeks later. I felt like a lunch sandwich again and decided to try Se-port Deli as a comparison. The result: two shocks: Se-Port was cheaper, much cheaper 13$ vs. 20$, but also smaller and not as tasty. So check out Pumpernickels Deli. Service/Ambiance - not a factor.

Well, they still have a large following. Quite busy. The service is cheerful and quick. However, the corn beef hash was not as tasty as I recall from prior visits. The recipe use to have home fried potatoes or a red potato now it has the stringy hash brown which changed the texture and taste. We were truly disappointed. Sometimes, it's just not worth it to change a recipe if it's not better than the original. I think we will come again and maybe try something else. Today we left not as happy with our choice from the menu.

Was there today for coffee. As I mentioned previously we seem to have an abundance of coffee shops…read morein the area so I'm surprised they all survive. In this case I've been here before and the place was packed. Location is just across from Stony Brook University so I could understand but today there was minimal activity. A variety of coffees which I had no complaint with. Okay let's cut to the chase. The interior has an industrial look which is pretty common today, but at some point I looked up to see the exposed HVAC ducts which are painted a cream color. The problem, the tops of the ducts were caked with dust. Major turn off. When someone opens the door to come in or out I have to imagine the breeze, or today the wind, disturbs the dust/dirt which then has the potential to end up in my coffee or food. Again with so many coffee shops in the area I'll be going to one of them. But to be fair I'll check back to see if they get the message

I went in expecting a five star experience. My friend and I had brunch here previously and it was…read morefantastic. So ... we were on the waiting list for Schnitzels at 5 pm on a Sunday. They don't take reservations. After about 10 minutes my friend and I plus 3 teens (my kids and a friend) were starving and Schnitzels was loud and crowded. We headed a few doors down to Sweet Mama's. Seated immediately. My friend and I shared the steak with penne dinner special and a Cobb salad with grilled chicken. My daughter ordered penne with butter off the kids menu. My son got a turkey burger and his friend got a grilled chicken sandwich on a hero instead of a wrap. Now the good -- portions were huge! My son could barely fit his burger in his mouth and it also had a half avocado on it. They didn't skimp. Steak with penne was delicious and so was the Cobb salad. We all shared off each other's plates because everything looked so amazing. Now the bad. My daughter's pasta was elbows, not penne as indicated on the menu. Not a catastrophe but she was looking forward to penne. Then - my son's friend put some ketchup on his plate for his fries. It was ,.. not red but brown. The bottle had an 8/25 expiration. We are in April 2026. We told the server and she said it's because it's the "simply ketchup" with no artificial dyes. She offered him ketchup packets "with fake dyes" but by that point he lost his appetite for fries. We grabbed ketchup from another table, same brand, Heinz Simply. You can see the difference in color. We showed the server and she acted annoyed. I told her we didn't want anyone getting sick on that ketchup and pointed out the expiration date. She rolled her eyes and said "oh I'll just throw it away." She kind of had an attitude and didn't even apologize. So that's why 4 stars. We'd go back but request not to have that server. The food is fantastic but watch your ketchup! If someone put it on a burger it would have been ruined.

I've had schnitzels in Germany once, so obviously (/s) that makes me an expert on the cuisine…read more Schnitzels in Stony Brook is cozy and friendly, but the food left something to be desired. I did make reservations for a party of 4 at 5pm and thankfully I did, because this place does get packed even on a weeknight. We had an extra person join us and thankfully, thankfully, they were able to accommodate our request. We ordered a few Paper Airplanes over Paris, which were delightful. Each one did come (with the same) poem folded on a toothpick. The salted pretzels to share were also nice, pillowy with the perfect amount of salt. For our entrees, it was a mix of Sauerbraten flatbreads, Sauerbraten, and my entree, the Holsteiner (chicken) Schnitzel. Everyone liked their entrees, but I found mind pretty mid. The schnitzel itself, darker than I was used to, but still had a crunch and was tasty. The red cabbage had far too much vinegar for my palate. And the spaetzle it came with, was pretty bland. Almost like eating plain pasta. The seasonal vegetables hidden under the schnitzel were also good. I do think , overall, if you've never been to Germany and are wanting to try authentic German food without travelling to Manhattan or beyond, give Schnitzels a chance! But if you're a self titled expert on schniztel because of one trip to Germany (/s like I), I would find somewhere else.

"Sir, oh knowledgeable sir with such great taste and honor will you do us a favor, nay, a blessing and come with us to our favorite bagel spot?" After much attempts I finally one day went. It was worse than you can even imagine. Years. For years I've tried to get this bite out of my gigantic encephalon. I've surgically removed gray matter from my noggin in hopes to erase the memories. But nay. It's lodged so deep that I cannot escape. I cannot escape my past. I cannot escape the truth. This place simply sucks. Like a baby on a bottle. Utterly blows. Like a cow out of breath.

Just go the other way to LI Bagel Cafe. These long islanders. So frustrating. So stubborn in their ways. Good thing it didn't rub off on me. I was one and done here.

Pay the exact same amount for a five piece chicken tenders "with sauce on the chicken" and you…read moreliterally get three times more sauce than if you order it "on the side". I politely brought this up to the worker - that it doesn't make sense that you get so much more sauce when you get the sauce on the chicken as opposed to on the side - is there anyway I could get the equivalent amount of sauce you get when you get it on the chicken.. just on the side.. so the chicken is not all soggy by the time I'm ready to eat it? The worker responded to me by telling me " if I gave you the amount of sauce on the side that comes on the chicken when you order it on the chicken- that would be the equivalent of giving you two sides of sauce - and would cost extra" I'm not sure if he was trolling me or if he's brain dead, but basically he admitted that for the same exact price you get less. Cool. Won't be returning . Brilliant business move- what's more valuable - retaining a customer or saving a sauce that you give out for free for the same exact order when you phrase the order differently? Definitely saving that sauce, right? Lol it's cool though I can see you're heading in the path of your predecessor Soup's On.
