Ironically enough, that's not what I went with, but great know they had a variety of veggie dogs and lettuce wraps for those who want gluten free sandwich options. I went with basic but really good hot dogs. I believe they were called "Reggie Dogs". The place definitely had a really cool locals vibe and the employees behind the counter were great. I got my food within five minutes of ordering it. If you're looking for a good deli in this area, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Seating is very limited, but we did get a high-top table with four seats. There is counter service only. As for the food, I got one of the daily specials, a hot meatball sub with a pickle spear, a bag of chips and a can of cream soda ($13.50 for the lot). I liked my sandwich. One of my friends got the hot pastrami sandwich and was not impressed. The menu consists mostly of sandwiches and hot dogs with toppings; they have vegetarian and vegan options. They add a 2.5% surcharge if you pay by credit card.

Recently the prices have gone up quite a bit, so I've gone from buying them weekly to more of a monthly treat, but they're still worth it. They offer a wide variety of options, including some unique wild-game choices like kangaroo and gator meat, which you don't see every day. And if you're looking for great sides, definitely pick up the twice-baked potatoes or the stuffed jalapeños--they're incredibly tasty and pair perfectly with just about anything. Overall, it's a great spot with consistently high-quality products and plenty of interesting options to try.

We have family in Tucson, so when we're there I always pick up some of Kent's fresh Polish kielbasa. You are depriving yourself if you don't get some, and I would hate to see anyone deprive himself/herself of this delicious treat. Get over to Kent's Sausage Shop and get you some - all of his products are sedond to none, but this particular variety is uniquely exquisite. You will not be disappointed!

A hidden gem. I've…read moreseen this place in passing but the building looks deceiving. I finally made it a point to stop in for lunch and it is the CUTEST deli. The vibes were cozy and I loved the array of workers ages I felt like I was at a grandparent's restaurant. They definitely take pride and joy in this place. You order at the counter and the sandwiches come with sides AND a pickle! They have many different side options we opted for the two potato salad options one was a savory bacon and the other one was the original with a mustard. Sandwich I had was the mad Italian and my husband had the meatball. Service was so fast we maybe waited 10 min max. They fill this sandwich with a ton of meat and the dressing on it is definitely home made along with the sides. If you're looking for an amazing sub sandwich you've found the right place.

Noon, on our way out of town moving her home, I made it our final stop. Should've come here years earlier. I had no idea of the longevity of The Sausage Deli until entering this place. I read the framed articles on the wall and learned how beloved they are. They mainly have sandwiches and are made to order, old school style. The sides are prepackaged in the deli case at the counter. I had the Italian Grinder, my wife had the Salami Sub and my daughter had a make your own sandwich. I had the sides of macaroni salad and potato salad. These sides were bland but maybe that's to compliment the flavorful sandwiches? I loved my Italian grinder and all the items inside it. The prices are fairly reasonable here and the service was great. You order at the counter and they call out your number when it's ready. Thinking back on my experience here, I don't remember seeing sausages anywhere....Hmmmm......Wonder why?

I went during a lunch break and the food both myself and my coworkers got all ended up being incredible. There is seating in the back of the store but a massive selection of all kinds of Italian goods, both in freezers and in a deli-style section. The menu has all kinds of classic favorites and I tried a sandwich that had fresh burrata, which was the exact thing I was craving. The prices are decent for the size of the portions and I also ended up snagging a bag of Baci candies on my way out! This is a great lunch spot with something on the menu for everyone, including a whole array of deserts like cannolis.

This is my wife's (*she's Italian, by the way) favorite place to pick up stuff for when we host…read morehome gatherings. The feast of the seven fishes is our yearly tradition during the holidays, and when it rolls around, Angie (I'm not making that up, that is her real name--I told you she was Italian) will grab stuff from Roma by the armful. I am of the opinion that the prepared foods from here can range from the, "Mama Mia!" (really really tasty) to the, "Eh, Cosi cosi" (you know, it passes) range. I'm a people-person and love to observe the patrons. Many of the customers appear to be of Italian descent and, like my bettah half seem to really-enjoy the traditional and authentic staples of, Il Bel Paese (The beautiful country). Food from many different regions of Italy are available. The decor is kinda fun. In my mind, when I think of what an Italian trattoria should look like, this place comes to mind... it's got the classic red and white checkered table clothes, maps and landscapes of Italy adorning the walls, and an energy of a place that is well cared for. A religious icon or two will also dot the interior landscape. The aroma of slowly simmering tomato gravy, cut garlic, roasted meats, chopped onions, and olive oil fills the air. It's an experience. Sometimes life imitates art, and hand to gawd, on my mutha's life... the last times I went, der was deeze tree guys sitt'n in dah corner. I swears, dey cou'da been cast members from the Sopranos. Ayhhyyee! Was'amatta, youse? The staff is generally warm and enthusiastic about their offerings. They generally have been super helpful, and if it's not too busy, are more than happy to make suggestions for new items or how best to prepare the items we have purchased. When we have visited, 90% of the time, the place was crack'n (meaning: super busy and full of life!). Sometimes, as we drive away and I take a peek at the receipt, I will exclaim, "Davvero! È così caro!" Loosely translated that means, "Really! That's so expensive!" My wife, who only knows a few words of Italian, has no idea that I was pooping my pantaloni over the cost... but, bless her heart, she seems to think the food here is worth every penny. Generally, I agree. So next time you go, remember to leave the gun, but take the cannoli. Mangiare!
