An Italian sandwich the size of Texas... sign me up!…read more I went into this market when I was exploring Georgetown one day and I naively ordered an Italian sandwich and once they received it I realized it was big enough to feed a family. I found the cutest little park bench and decided to dig in. Needless to say I had left overs but I could have found a way to eat this whole sandwich because it was that good! Every topping was homemade and you could tell. Def a must stop in DC.

I'm a bit torn on this one…read more I stumbled across Stachowski's while looking for a unique local spot for lunch. The sandwiches looked epic and the photos of the place looked adorable for a local joint. We walked over from our hotel in Georgetown and were overwhelmed by the sandwich choices. Caught between the Grinder and the Pastrami, we went with the employee's suggestion for the latter. About 5 minutes later we were handed a wrapped sandwich the size of a football. We found a quiet spot to unwrap and enjoy it and dug in. Frankly, I wouldn't order it again, and I think we would have enjoyed the grinder more. It was just a huge pile of meat on pumpernickel bread with mustard. Flavor was meh. Neither of us was overwhelmed for nearly $25. Props for the cute European goods in the shop, though, and the employees were courteous and friendly. But next time I'll look elsewhere for lunch.

Once I heard there was a deli with a pickle bar within walking distance of our DC headquarters, I…read moreknew I had to go. My colleague who told me about this place jumped to join me for lunch. I wasn't anticipating a nice dining room to dine in, but there it was so we did. Although it was uncomfortably warm in there. Must have been something wrong with their A/C because they couldn't possibly always have it so warm, especially in the middle of summer. I ordered The Clevelander and she had The Mel. And of course we hit their awesome pickle bar! Why doesn't every deli in the universe have a pickle bar?! The sandwiches are piled high with meat and so delicious. Several complaints about mine, however: the menu said it comes with mayo and provolone. It came out with no spread at all so I was brought mayo packets to apply myself, which is way less than ideal with a huge already assembled sandwich. And the brand new server (on her second day there) came back after we ordered and asked if I wanted cheese. I mentioned I thought it listed a cheese on the menu, which she confirmed. But then I ended up getting charged extra for the cheese that my sandwich was supposed to come with. Kind of lame. And while my friend was asked if she wanted hers toasted, I was not. I didn't think twice about it until mine came out toasted, which I neither asked for or wanted. Lastly, the sandwich was also supposed to come with "fresh cranberry spread" and if there was any on my sandwich, it wasn't detectable. But I decided not to even mention it because I didn't want to deconstruct my sandwich a second time. Regardless of these hiccups, I would certainly consider returning.

The service is good and you can place your order at the counter, self enter the order or place the order with the waiter. The menu is extensive and I saw many people enjoying the eggs to order. I just did not care for a big breakfast.

I returned nearly after a year and happy to see improvements in packaging. Love foil wrapping because it does not leak and holds the sandwiches better. It's extra work back so I hope they are being compensated for it cuz the sandwiches cost the same. Don't change that.

UPDATE: This platform will not allow me to post the photos to my review but they are posted to the…read morepage for now. Very interesting This was my first time coming to this shop. I heard good things about their sandwiches. My go to is normally Mangialardo's on Pennsylvania Ave in SE DC or Carl's Subbs on Rhode Island Ave in NE DC. I think I will stick to both of them next time. The staff was very friendly and helpful to me as a first timer but the sandwich was totally disapointing! NOT worth it, at all. I ordered a 9 inch capicola, ham, and cheese sub on the hard roll. The roll was very good and fresh but I couldn't taste the cheese or meat in the sandwich because there wasn't enough of it. I tasted the bread, the toppings of lettuce, tomato and onions. I decided to deconstruct the sandwich and found exactly 4 very thinly sliced pieces of meat and 2 very thinly sliced pieces of cheese as pictured clearly in the photographs. I also noticed that the they have different prices for the same type of meats. For example, they have a $29.99 per pound Capicola and one for $9.99 a pound. I asked which went on the sandwich and of course it was the cheaper one. That wasn't surprising and getting my sandwich back to the office. I decided not to eat the rest of the meatless sandwich and just take the loss. I wouldn't come back nor would I recommend a friend to try it

My family ordered subs from here on a whim, through DoorDash, while we were visiting DC, and…read moreeveryone loved them so much that we ordered from them two more times during our trip! The roast turkey subs were huge- with thinly shaved turkey packed in so full- and my kids ate every last bite. I ordered "The Italian" as it was the special, and it was so delicious! It has their homemade Italian dressing, salami, hot capicola, and provolone. I re-ordered it again! My mom also ordered several desserts: house made cannolis, banana bread pudding, oreo cookie mousse, tiramisu, and chocolate mousse cake. Everything was wonderful! I really liked the banana bread pudding. The real gem was the chocolate mousse cake, which was so amazing that we ordered more slices in our next orders.

Another good meal at Parkway Deli. This time, my partner and I each got the veggie omelette with…read morehash browns and a bread (I got an onion bagel and they got English muffin).

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.

Best for groups of 2 or takeout food. Cocktail list was affordable (for DC prices) and had a lot of funky options. I got a gin pickle soda - loved it. Thought it could've been even pickle-y-er! I thought the Orange Julius and espresso martini sounded great too. Seemed they had some batch cocktails ready to go so my drink was made quickly. Is definitely come back if I was in the area!!

Sandwich was huge, although it came out to be around $20 post-tax. Service was friendly, location is central, and the ambiance is ok - a bit loud and dark, sometimes difficult to hear my friend sitting across from me. There's a 5% service fee that is automatically charged, and it's written on the menu (and of course on the check) - but the options on the machine for tipping still starts from 20% which seems like a sneaky, dishonest, and greedy tactic.

Delicious gourmet sandwiches - the March monthly special veggie sandwich, The Truth hit the spot!…read moreThe sandwich shop is tucked inside The Gatsby hotel with only indoor solo seating on cozy bar stools with a window view and some outdoor seating in front of the stadium. It's primarily a take-out shop with a dozen or sandwiches and a few sides. The Truth veggie sandwich was bursting with flavor with sweet potato, crispy eggplant, juicy portobello mushoroom, and creamy lentil aioli stuffed between whole wheat bread. It was so good that I didn't even miss not cheese! Initially, I thought about adding cheese, but glad I didn't and stuck with the classic sandwich. By the time I made it through a couple of bites of the 2nd half of my sandwich, I was stuffed and didn't have any room or a craving for chips or fries that I typically get. It was a simple sandwich with quality ingredients made well. Crossing my fingers that the veggie The Truth sandwich stays on the menu and looking forward to coming back to try other sandwiches!

Unlike most places that slice their meat, this is more chopped for lack of a better descriptor. And it makes all the difference.

No matter where you get your favorite reuben (even if its nyc or brooklyn), this will unseat it!

You…read morecan stop in for a few groceries you forgot or are running low on, but the real reason I love this place is the food. Their bagels are really good, and you can order ahead online, which seems to be the move if you're grabbing something and want to be in and out quickly. If you're in Dupont and want something easy, hearty, and actually good, this is such a great little spot. They also recently did a collaboration with Saku Saku Bakery, which I LOVED and resulted in me leaving with entirely too many treats. It sounds like they may continue doing things together, and I really hope they do because it was such a fun addition. The owner, or at least the main guy who always seems to be running things when I'm there, is incredibly friendly and talkative. The staff seems to rotate, but everyone I've encountered has always been willing to help. Just a really great neighborhood place that does exactly what you want a good bodega to do: feed you, sell you the random thing you forgot you needed, and make the neighborhood a little better by being there.

Service: This is a counter service restaurant and so you only have to step up to order in person on a kiosk and they will serve you your food to your table.
