Chef Miguel Lockhart grew up in NYC cooking soul food and going to Katz Deli with family. He became…read morean executive chef as an adult, and when he moved to CNY and decided he would open a restaurant, he wanted to provide something that CNY was scarce on - soul food and fresh, home made pastrami. Lockhart opened Harts Cafe & Deli in the ALDI shopping plaza on 31 in Cicero, with a menu consisting of sandwiches where he makes ALL the meats himself including pastrami, corned beef and pulled smoked chicken. He has a breakfast menu with platters, sandwiches, pancakes & waffles, offers different coffee options, fish fry Fridays, and Soul Food Saturdays. I went into Harts today after reading a good review about them, and I work pretty close. I LOVE pastrami, and it is not easy to find home made pastrami in the area, so I was immediately interested. Chef Miguel gave me a whole run down of what he offered, told me how everything is fresh made from the pastrami to his whole grain mustard, so I ordered a half pastrami sandwich with a side of his seasoned fries. He also has one of those machines that squeezes fresh orange juice, something I've only seen in one other restaurant here, and I love fresh orange juice, so I ordered once of those as well. He went back and made it immediately. My sandwich was fresh and hot, with thick slices of delicious pastrami on a roll with his home made tangy musatard, leaf lettuce and tomato. The HUGE pile of fries were seasoned well, and I can't place what the seasoning reminds me of, but it's different than any other fries I've had here and they taste great. A half sandwich, large side of fries and fresh squeeze juice cost me about $20. Chef Miguel was extremely friendly, and has a lot of stuff on the menu I want to try, cause I'll definitely be going back.

The wait time was minimal, as I attempted to use the modern digital soda machine. My son had big cheeseburger, I had Lil cheeseburger, the difference being Big has two patties Lil has one.

My son had a Vanilla Shake that he enjoyed as well. A little pricey but worth the extra cash for the step up from fast food meal!

4.5 rounding up to 5…read more My husband has family around these parts and we recently were taken to dinner here on our last visit. It tends to be a popular spot, as evidenced by the parking lots on each side of the gravel road. Fortunately, it wasn't too crowded on the Wednesday night that we arrived. It looked deceptively smaller on the outside to me. As we came in, we went up a few stairs and there was an extension we decided to sit at so that we would be able to have a little more space and less volume for privacy so we could catch up. It was pretty dark compared to the other area, which I prefer. Once we were seated, we were provided with menus and glasses of ice water. Our server was better than excellent. She gave an overview of the menu choices, which included burgers, wings, entrees, and a fantastic choice of appetizers. Our relatives went with a warm pretzel, which came out hung on a stand with 2 kinds of dip, beer cheese and I think a plain cheese, and mustard. We had a mixed appetizer dish which included chicken tenders and onion rings (I forget the other items, so much food.) These were typical pub fare, with 3 different dips you choose from idk how many total. Speaking of sauces to choose from, there must have been 30 or more on the list for wings and anything else you want it with. You'll notice that the prices are very odd, like $17.12 or $13.16. I regret not asking what the story is with that. Most of us went with burgers, which were 1/2 pound patties on beautiful, soft, shiny buns. I had the bourbon burger, which had a delicious sauce, crispy onions, bacon, cheese, tomato, lettuce and onion. I could not finish this thing. I love that NY state lets you have your burger cooked to your choice of doneness, so I was extra happy to enjoy mine medium rare. I got my usual fries for my side, which were par the course if too salty for me. My daughter built her own burger as an option, which she also loved but couldn't finish. My husband's wings were enormous, as was the order of mac and cheese our cousin had. Our server was practically telepathic as she anticipated when we needed refills or other incidental. I love that this place lets you buy the staff a pitcher of beer to show appreciation. Idk when they drink it or how they share, but it's a great gesture. My guess is it's when they close and before they go home. It's the kind of place you can sit around and enjoy for hours while watching sports on the television screens all around, or have a game and your drinks. Solid spot for a casual pub style meal. Would definitely be going regularly if I lived there.

When my partner and I walked in, we were greeted by a man at the counter and mentioned it was our first time visiting. His response was about as uninterested as it gets. Instead of offering a menu or any guidance, he simply pointed off to the side and told us to order when we were ready. Not exactly a welcoming first impression. The space itself was small, with a few tables, drink coolers, baked goods, and smoothie options. After placing our order, we waited...and waited. After exactly 40 minutes, I finally asked about the status, especially after watching another couple come in after us, order, and leave with their food before we received ours. I understand that takeout and delivery orders are part of the business, but in-house customers should not be completely overlooked. There was no communication, no sense of urgency, and no effort to acknowledge the delay. It genuinely felt like we didn't matter as customers. And for what? Two sandwiches--a roast beef and a turkey. Having worked in restaurants myself, I can confidently say that should not take 40 minutes under normal circumstances. I don't enjoy writing negative reviews, but this experience was frustrating enough to warrant one. We will not be returning. Save yourself the time and look elsewhere.
