This Italian Deli has been on my "must try" list (and Yelp collection) for too many years. With so many sandwich options, I read the Yelp reviews ahead of time and decided on the Cheesesteak. Service: The employees see you and remember you. From the moment I walked into the non-stop action until I left, the employees assisted and remembered me. After a welcome, one of the women at the front registers asked me and Joe S if this was the first time in the store. When I said "no," I was directed to the place my order at the deli. Ordering was easy and I was directed to pay at the register. The sandwich guys walk around the store, sandwich in hand, calling out the customer's name. When I ordered and paid for a second sandwich, both employees recognized me ("the same?" and "back again"). Food. Fresh, tasty, hefty-sized sandwiches. The large Cheesesteak sandwich was hand-delivered, and when opened, looked like so many pictures on the Yelp page. Melty, gooey cheese on the mass of thin, ribeye steak between a fresh hoagie roll with a lightly crusty outside and chewy inside. Grilled onions and hot peppers finished off the flavors. I enjoyed every bite. The Stasio - a house signature special was good, too, even though it wasn't on my to-try list today. Joe S and I split our sandwiches so we could sample each one. Don't sleep on the fresh pastries and Italian wedding cookies! Store Interior: Registers up front, grocery items on shelves in the middle, deli on the back right and counter seating by the windows. The place was very busy the Saturday I ventured inside. The imported Italian grocery items, the family pictures high up on the wall, and the overall feel reminded me of marketplaces overseas. I'd love to return.

I asked the server if it was okay to sample the pickles and she offered me what was available. A few options were not in stock, the pickled tomato was my favorite. No one was running the register and the server was busy waiting tables due to the lunch rush. While I was waiting for my crispy chicken sandwich to be made I could smell a oder in the restaurant. The time it took to put the order in and get my food was quick. The chicken was dry and the portion they had was small & thin. The chicken was lacking flavor. I requested mayo on the side and did not receive it, no big deal. The fries were hot but not good in my opinion. I can tell they are frozen fries. For the price of the sandwich it was not worth it in my opinion. If all options of pickles are available I would try them again.

They're located in an office building and they have their own entrance from the outside. I never had trouble getting a parking space. Cons: No decaf coffee (I can't have caffeine, so, that's something I always look for in a cafe). They only have one daily special each day, although they have other sandwiches you can choose from too. I was disappointed that even though they showed various salads on their board (macaroni, Greek) - they told me the salads weren't available. They serve breakfast items as well in the morning and I've heard those are pretty good, but I didn't actually try any, so I can't say.

Once you walk in there's a bakery section for all the desserts and baked goods they sell, which really helps with deciding on desserts. Service was pretty fast! The waitress we had was very nice, and she kept checking up on us throughout the meal. I really loved the loaded potato cakes! It's essentially thick hash browns cut into chunks and fried, with all the loaded potato ingredients on top! It was very filling and great for sharing. For the sandwiches, they're pretty good too. If you like Reuben, then their sandwiches are really good! The beef dip one was also super good! It includes a French onion soup dip that you can dip the sandwich into. The sandwich is a bit soggy from all the moisture from the beef and French onion soup, but if you're okay with that, you should be able to enjoy it like I did! The banana dream cake was super good too. Got it to go since the food was very filling but we wanted to try a cake. It wasn't too sweet and the small chocolate chips is a good combo with the banana.

We were miserable the entire meal. The menu is much smaller and the food we have always loved was different. We had the lasagna and the baked penne. Usually two of our favorites. Not sure if they've hired a new chef, but the changes are not as we had hoped. They had no lack of business, which is good.

Incredibly disappointed in the TLB. I've been a fan for a long time, especially their dry aged…read moremeats, and am more than willing to pay for this type of product. Today, though, I noticed them selling Japanese Wagyu as: Sake Infused Dry Aged A9 Kobe Strip. This is a very scammy way of selling a product. First, meat is graded broadly on three scales - USDA (choice, prime), BMS (beef marbling scale - common in Aus), and the Japanese grading scale. (A1-A5, with most high end steaks being A4 or the gold standard, A5). https://meatnbone.com/blogs/the-clever-cleaver/meat-beef-grading-system-understanding A9 doesn't exist. A BMS 9 could be an A5. But this is mislabeled. They have also used the term A11 in their instagram account. Maybe they are confusing BMS for A-scale, or maybe they are intentionally trying to make their product seem better than competitors. Furthermore, not all Japanese Wagyu is Kobe beef. Kobe beef refers to Tajima cattle raised in Hyogo Japan. The export of this beef is highly regulated to only certain restaurants and purveyors, who will display a seal and certificate certifying the origin of the beef. It is rare, expensive, and most importantly, Bush Brothers (Local Butcher's wholesale purveyor) is not certified to sell, nor do they use in any way, the term Kobe Beef. So it is incredibly likely that this product is mislabeled. This isn't illegal (Kobe beef doesn't have a TM in the US), but it is disingenuous. https://www.kobe-niku.jp/en/contents/certification/index.html https://instagram.com/bushbros Next, "sake infused"is incredibly confusing. Is it referring to the myth that Kobe cattle are massaged with sake? Is it referred to the use of koji (fermented cooked rice) which is often used as an aging accelerant? Or did they really take Japanese Wagyu and infuse (inject, soak?) with sake? And why on earth would you do that!? It would be like making sangria with a bottle of DRC. This product is likely a A5 strip loin (which Bush Bros. does carry) that has been aged. Market price would be somewhere around $175-185/lb. (An unaged cut would be around $150/lb.) When I asked for more information on the most expensive cut of meat in their shop, I was treated with disdain and a dismissive attitude. Neither member of the staff could answer my questions other than to say "It's the highest grade of Kobe beef." To charge $215 dollars for a grade that doesn't exist, for a steak that isn't from Kobe, with an aging method that seems dubious at best, is disingenuous and plays on a lack of consumer knowledge. If The Local Butcher themselves don't know the differences here, they shouldn't sell this product. If they do, they should be ashamed of themselves.

We didn't realize they only offer bialys or sesame buns, but we were all pleasantly surprised and happy with our choices. Everyone except me ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on different bialys like jalapeño & Muenster, everything, and caramelized onion. I ordered the bacon sandwich on a jalapeño & Muenster bialy, which was delicious. My sandwich came with bacon, an over-medium egg, and smoked jalapeño cream cheese, all perfectly toasted. There were no complaints from anyone, honestly, we all ate in silence, which says a lot because we were too busy enjoying the food. The only downside is that it's not much of a dine-in spot, as they only have high-top tables and no chairs. I also got an iced cinnamon latte, which was not overly sweet and had a great espresso flavor. One of my friends ordered a hot lavender latte and really enjoyed it. We were so hungry I forgot to take pictures! If we lived closer, we'd definitely come here more often.
