    I just came back in here and I ordered two "hot" sandwiches and both were served cold... after the man asked me twice if I wanted it hot or cold. And both sandwiches are cold. I like the fast service, however if it isn't the best when your order is cold ..... The last two photos are my sandwich from today.

    Nostrand Express is simply the best deli in the neighborhood. They've got a great selection of all the typical deli stuffs including bagels, chips, drinks, etc. And they slice up some amazing sandwiches. My favorite and a must try for all of you: the jerk turkey club with bacon. Smoked turkey rolled in jerk seasoning and bacon together create a crazy good combo. Add in the cheese, crisp lettuce, a tomato if you wish and a warm soft roll and you've got a perfect lunch sandwich. And it's only $5.50 for roll. Not a bad price for perfection.

    Ahhh, Finally after 5 months of extensive renovation, Nostrand Express has reopened. The deli now has a large seating area and many more showcases that serve different variety of foods. Their main food used to be Sandwiches but now they have branched out into the "Halal" foods too. They have, falafals, Gyros and Shish Ka Bops. But I must say, Sal still makes the best sandwiches in town. He will toast the italian bread and begin laying out his masterpieces one hogie at a time. His portions are very generous and he only uses prime cold cuts. It really makes a huge difference in the final product. Yum. Yet, he still manages to keep the prices very low. (Sal is a great humanitarian as well) Inside, Sal has completely redone all the countertops with granite and used real wood to display candy and snacks. The entire store is brightly lit with new hologen lighting and even the beverage showcases are new. There are only a handful of upscale delis of this kind in Brooklyn and in this area , this is the only one. So do yourself a favor and trekk down to the Brooklyn College area for the best deli in Brooklyn!

    Bacon egg and cheese on a roll

    Love this deli, very conveniently located near Brooklyn college and always my go to if I forget to pack my lunch. Deli sandwiches, wraps, salads, and all sorts of snacks available. But hands down they have the best wraps and are pretty reasonably priced, too. Their grilled chicken wrap is so juicy, fresh, and satisfying; I just had it today and I'm craving it already. Seriously come here for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!

    3.5 stars I came to…read moreFarmer in the Deli cause of the hype it has on social media for thier viral chopped sandwhiches. I arrived and of course thier was a line. I waited for about 45 minutes, while waiting I picked up my chips and a white peach ginger ale. I also talked to the girl in front and she explained that you can get your sandwhich on a hero or roll. I ordered a chopped honey turkey with onions, pickles, lettuce and mayo. The guy who made my sandwich was soo friendly and patient. I just put my trust in him to hook it up lol. He also asked if I wanted to add the chips and I did. Overall my sandwhich was better the next day after it firmed up. The flavor was good but the texture was soft, mushy and just not what I want in a turkey sandwhich. It ran me about 12.00 and it was worth the experience.

The original name was called laurose and tuna salad chopping has been happening for over four decades. My fort green family really know what it is. My cousin and I stopped by yesterday and picked up a couple of heroes. I had to get my beef salami and 3 pepper colby jack cheese, extra mayo, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles, on a whole wheat hero (10.99) . Much love to a family staple for years. Definitely a place for you to pick up a sandwich that won't break the bank.

If that's not the most Brooklyn thing ever, I don't know what is. Same sandwiches, different blessing. Everybody says order the pastrami, so I listened like a grown man should. Pastrami on rye with spicy mustard absolutely slapped. Smoky, juicy, perfectly stacked, and messy enough to ruin your shirt with honor. Then came the beef brisket on rye with a cup of au jus for dipping... and brother, that dip should be studied by scientists. Pure perfection. Washed everything down with a Dr. Brown's root beer like it was 1957. No fake trendy nonsense. No deconstructed sandwiches. Just old-school deli greatness that punches you directly in the soul. Great food doesn't care where you come from -- it just brings everybody to the same table. That's New York. That's Brooklyn.

But a mess of green peppers. Like a whole green pepper on an uncut sandwich. Uncut! Let's be real. I'm at the mercy of the person who buys me lunch. And they eat brisket. So get the brisket. But don't dare get a simple turkey sandwich. And also, they're misrepresenting that they have chicken salad. They do not. Or maybe they've been lying about it.

But boy it is super worth it if you make the effort! The counter service is excellent and you place your order and wait for deliciousness!

I went with two friends so were able to try three different sandwiches and to be honest, they were all just alright. The food: Roast Pork Special- Fried Eggplant, Provolone, Broccoli Rob- The texture of the pork came off a bit dry, the eggplant was good but kinda gets lost in the sandwich so if I literally had it on it's own I would have appreciated it more but who eats fried eggplant by itself? The rob was nice it added a nice crunch but didn't offer that much flavor. Giuseppe Special- Eggplant parm, meatballs, melted mozzarella. I couldn't get over how soggy the bread was. It was like wet paper towel to me. Soggy bread and everything kinda tasting the same made it underwhelming. Nicky Special- It just tasted like salad in between bread. There was so much veg, that was the main thing I remember in that sandwich.
