Sara was our server and she was absolutely amazing. She knew the menu up and down she recommended my wife's dinner and she loved it.

Flavor & value! When in doubt, always go to the local Greek bar & grill for breakfast. Big fat Greek breakfast was all that!! Large local sausage links and Chef's meat was a chicken skewer with all the delicious Greek flavor. Loaded hashbrowns had the perfect medley of fresh, seasoned ingredients from the tender potatoes with the right blend of Greek spices to the seemingly locally sourced smoky bacon & lightly peppered sausage with a touch of melted feta and side of homemade gravy it was everything craveable on Sunday morning! Service by Hillary was spot on as were the jams on the jukebox. The coffee was delicious too! Don't miss this spot! read more

A beautiful interior! I came here for takeout and was happy to see that it was empty! I had high hopes for my Ruben sandwich- Service was friendly but pretty slow- My Ruben was okay-really disappointed that it was just average-My daughter had a "hot holly" and it was good! I would definitely try this again-and get a different sandwich! read more

Pauls Deli Newtown - Delis Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

We were seated easily, in a comfortable booth. Our waitress was Hope - she was terrific! We had a grilled Chicken Caesar salad, the Uncle Pauls's Sub, and Greek oregano fries. We brought home most of the lunch. I gave the restaurant 4 stars and not 3 because of our wonderful waitress, HOPE, and the absolutely fresh lettuce in the salad, but the Uncle Paul's sub was Very "thin" - when you think of a sub, the bread has been filled with coldcuts, etc. There was so little meat - maybe 1 thin slice of each meat, and I didn't see any cheese. My husband remarked that there was American cheese, but he had to open the sandwich up to confirm that it had been included. For $14, It should have had much more meat, etc. in it. I will say the tomatoes slices were nice and ripe. There should be more oregano on the fries and less salt - but the feta was nice with the fries. read more

Gyro was good, lamb was tender. Seasoned fries were very salty. New York sub was light on meat and heavy on mayonnaise, not a combo that I would expect. Ambiance is more of a bar than a deli, with a bar featuring a wide range of brews. Black painted concrete floors and aged wood add to that feeling. Okay, but not the best. read more

Pauls Deli Newtown - Supposed to be fries and pasta salad. I was so looking forward to this. - Delis Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

This place is just below average. We've eaten at their downtown location and it was decent, but not great. Today we tried the Newtown location. Positives: big space with lots of TVs for sports. Fast service and lots of attention by staff. Cons: food is just broiler made dishes. Fries were soggy, the Godfather Philly was incredibly bland and slightly cold. The Reuben was good, but was soggy. I don't think we'd come back to either location. They need to step up their food preparation game. Sad, because the location is cool. Additional note--we could get zero cell signal (not their fault) and their WiFi was so slow it was unusable. read more

Went there yesterday. Out of coors light, didn't have Mr daughters drink but dude, that second rum and coke was on point. Caught a good buzz about half way through it. 10 out 10 would recommend again. I think my BLT was good too read more

I met some neighbors here and was worried about what to order especially after reading these reviews on here. I ordered the Pastrami sandwich and I am here to say it was very good. I had to ask for Mustard but that is not unusual unless you are in a big city. Ambiance is Bar like and very dim where you need your torch to read the menu. Not too loud either when I was was there so you could talk. read more

Our go-to when in Williamsburg. The menu is enormous with something for everyone's taste preferences. We've enjoyed everything we have ordered and have tried most sections of the menu. Highly recommend the Reuben extra crispy and the huge Stromboli. Ethan has been especially welcoming and helpful as to recommending menu choices and ensuring we are well taken care of. Plenty of seating and a lovely outside area. read more

The food was decent and the beers on they have on draft are a nice selection. They have enough TVs for the sport watching enthusiast to qualify it as a sports bar scene. Nice location in the New Town area of Williamsburg, VA. Larger than the downtown location, the staff here are friendly and welcoming. Food was good, menu is almost too large and could use some updating with choices. The price point is moderate for portion size. Ease of parking is why I choose this location from the downtown spot. read more

We were hoping for good food like the original Paul's Deli near the stadium, but this place was VERY disappointing. What went right: -Plentiful parking -Prompt seating and large dining area -Timely drinks order and delivery -Burger cooked medium rare as ordered What went wrong: -Forgot to put cheese on burger (sent back to add cheese but burger and fries were both cold by the time they came back) -Deluxe burger offered lettuce, tomato, and pickle but pickle was a spear (was I wrong to expect slices on burger?) -Burger had absolutely ZERO seasoning and appeared to be much smaller than advertised -Bun was plain and stale, like right out of package (no seasoning, butter, toasting, etc.) -Cole slaw was completely tasteless (I mean SUPER bland!) -Fries had no salt or seasoning either -Reuben was tasteless and sauerkraut looked like just dry shredded cabbage, very little pickled flavor -Server never returned to ask if we were happy or needed anything after dropping off cold burger -Free cannolis to go offered as a consolation at departure were very stale (like they'd been sitting for days) and were so bad we spit them out I would NOT go back to this location. read more

Good ... but not as good as I remember Fries were great. Chicken tenders great. One daughter got the chilli .. ate it all. Sandwiches got soggy fast (don't remember that from previous years) still good. Would still come back. Lots of local brews on tap. Friendly staff. read more

The good is that hubby got the lamb gyro and said it was as good as our local gyro place, but since it was Monday our local place was closed. I got the New York sub which was such a disappointment because it lacked any meat and had so much mayo. So then I took the other half's meat to attempt to make it better, but there was so much mayonnaise that it started to fall apart. The meat lacked any seasoning anyway. One slice of corned beef and one slice of salami along with a tasteless slice of cheese is not a New York sub, but the good news is that the sweet server checked on us and was so concerned about how upset I was. Juliana then talked with the manager and had the cost removed as I had not eaten hardly any of it. She kept apologizing but it wasn't her fault. The place definitely could use some cleaning as the indoor window we sat next to was filthy and the floors were black so the vibes were definitely of a bar rather than a delicatessen. read more

Went to lunch with my parents the other day...asked if we could have a low top with chairs and they kindly sat us where we needed (my dad has bad knees, so he needs to get up and down easily). The young man who took care of us was attentive, friendly, and was very accommodating...he got us everything we needed to enjoy our meal and checked on us every time he walked past. The food was good; exactly what we expected...everything tasted good, was well executed, and the portions were great! Dad got the godfather Philly, and my mom and I shared the fish and chips special and the prime rib sandwich special. As for the ambience; felt a little dark, outdated, strangely mismatched chairs, and dingy bathrooms (makes it feel a little dirty IMO)...sooooo much seating, so they can do a ton of business... We would eat here again for a quick bite. read more

The wife and I had their loaded fries. The fries were unlike any that I have ever had. They were like chewing on cardboard and they lacked any filling. The wife said that she has had them there before and they were good, so I guess it's a roll of the dice. I for one will not be "rolling the dice" there again. On an up note service was good. read more

DELICIOUS Sub and really good bacon cheese fries as well. My family gets food from here and has a picnic in the sunken gardens every time we come back for the William and Mary Homecoming. read more

The food and the service is terrible. I've been here many times. I took a break for months and came back with daily from out of town and nothing has changed. Every order was slow to come out and every order was not right multiple times. I will not ever come back. This place has so much potential but completely falls on its face every time. read more

Probably more of a 2.5/5 I've heard about Paul's Deli and have been meaning to check it out. Came here with some coworkers and we were sat at the high tables. I ordered a Chicken Pita (which came with fries on the side). It took quite a bit of time for my food to come out and I just assumed because we had several members in our party. Well, after most of us got out entrees, some people in our party were still waiting after 30+ minutes of waiting. The three dishes they were waiting on were mozzarella sticks, chicken parm, and eggplant parm. We felt bad, but the people in our party urged us to start eating so our food doesn't get cold. Well--too late because my fries were stone cold on arrival. The actual entree was alright. I think my favorite part was the tzatziki. I don't think I would order it again or recommend it to someone who asks what they should order. Our waitress was kind. I got a bit of a surprise on my receipt. On the menu I ordered from, it said 12.99. However, me receipt had 18.99 on it. I didn't want to make a scene or have my party wait on me while figuring it out so I just left it but it didn't leave a good feeling when I left. I'm not sure if I'd return. Maybe I'll try the other location in Downtown Williamsburg and try a different menu item, but I wasn't too impressed. read more

The young lady who served us was great. The atmoshere is always good. However, the food was not good. I had a reuben for 14$ that didn't even come with fries. The meat was tough and overcooked. My brother got the seafood platter for 26$ and everything was overcooked including the unrecognizable clam strips and terrible orzo. I have been going here for years when I come to Williamsburg. I have never had a bad meal until now. They need a new cook. read more

We've been to Pauls many times and it's OK, not great. Last night we went with friends and it was just awful. I had a salami and provologne sub and my wife had chicken souvlaki. My sub was barely that, two pieces of salami, one piece of provologne on each half. It was loaded with lettuce, an thin sliver of tomato, and sauce that was terrible. The fries were OK. My wifes chicken was old and tasted bad. I got sick during the night and was out of it all day. We'll never go back. read more

To start off , my gf just recently started working near by and really wanted to check this place out . We met up for lunch Her and I and 2 of our kids 9 and 17 . When we sat , we had to request a kids menu , then we had to request crayons , the waiter gave my daughter one of his pens , not his fault crayons aren't available. My son and ordered a Stromboli which cost around 22 bucks ,when it came out it was small considering the price , Pizza Sam in Newport will make one double the size for 5 bucks less . The real problem occurred when my gf ordered the simple burger . The burger came out made wrong and I mean like different from how the description states, plus for the lettuce they used the hard center part of the lettuce . We let the waiter know . He was was super understanding and said he would talk to his manager Jessica about taking it off . He returns to the Table to inform us she said no . I was like wow , I guess making a burger different from it's description and using the lettuce knot and the customer not eating it doesn't qualify for anything.....not even a visit to the Table lol . Too many options in the greater Williamsburg area to waste your money at this place . read more

We came for the Brunch - NOT! Don't claim you serve brunch if you don't even have tea or a cup of hot water. They only have luke warm caffeinated coffee. This is a drunk's sports bar that serves (choke)food. Hence, the reason for caffeinated-only coffee. The micro brunch menu doesn't even appear on their website - (now I know why) Since the Brunch offering was so horrific we decided to drop back ten yards & punt How can you go wrong with Burgers, they were terrible! We were offered pink and they were more crucified than a McDonalds single. Grease was the burger's only flavor. The French fries were shoveled out anemic, limp & cold. The waitress was friendly & commiserative when she heard our meal displeasure. Even if she told management our dismay - not a Nickle was removed from the bill. Yah know in a town full of restaurants starving for good help this young woman should change jobs. read more

Pauls Deli Newtown - the exterior of paul's deli - Delis Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

Disappointing lunch experience. Our server did not notice us and we waited about 15 minutes for service to start. He was woefully unable to answer questions about the menu and gave incorrect information. My husband asked what fish was in the fish and chips special and was told cod. In fact, it was skin on catfish (which was not good). This "special" was $20. My Godfather Philly was completely underwhelming. It lacked any seasoning and came with a bland au jus dip. Even the fountain drink tasted off. Cannot recommend on any level. read more

Silver Fox Here! I think we found our new spot for pregame or after game celebrations when I attend William and Mary games! It has a local cool dive bar feel, when you walk in you can definitely see all the pride memorabilia on the tables and wall. Wow that menu is huge! Want American? Italian? Greek? They have you covered. I had a Gyro platter which was good, I would expect a little wait when they are busy but the food is solid and the beer is cold! Go Tribe!! read more

The bartenders rum and albi were super attentive and great love this place it's a definite go to if your ever in Williamsburg!

I thought this place was perfectly fine. They were open late and wasn't packed. The servers were masked up, and everyone was pretty spread out. We ordered the Calamari as an appetizer. I love Calamari, but I can't say I really loved it here. The ringlets were cut really bug, and guess I'm not really use to that. I ordered the breaded wings (pretty good) and my husband had the Godfather Philly (he loved it with the sauce.) For dessert we had the Brownie and the Tuxedo Bomb. They were both good, but the Brownie was much better when we later popped it in the microwave for a few seconds. I had a drink called the Spiked Lemonade, and thought it was really good. Three stalls in the women restroom (including handicap) with a changing table. We enjoyed our visit. read more

You will not find a more inconsistent restaurant in Williamsburg. Food can be great or the worst. Sometimes fries come with a sub. Sometimes a soda is free with a kids meal. Sometimes they grill the bread for the gf sub. 7 onion rings for $5.00 read more

Always a good meal at Paul's. I rate an establishment by "Would I return to this place?". The answer has been "Yes!" four times. It's just tasty, well prepared, and plentiful. My goto is the roast beef dip. This is often the highlight of my Williamsburg visit. read more

Not at all what you expect. It's certainly not your typical deli. The menu is very diverse with Greek, Italian, and traditional bar food. The specials are always changing and fantastic. The servers are super polite and attentive. Open late which is nice for this part of town. Can accommodate large groups. read more

Can't understand why only 2.8 stars. Have been here 3 times in the past year and has great service and meals. The atmosphere is relaxed and a bit loud but not bothering. Had an excellent seafood broil with a very attentive staff. read more

Love coming to Paul's for a drink and an app! Haven't typically ordered from the full menu. Severs are quick, drinks are good, and everything is pretty reasonably priced for Williamsburg. Fun place to gather for drinks with friends and they're open late! read more

Pros *Was sat immediately *Lively and clean inside Cons *Limited server interaction *Only two appearances (food delivery and check) *Long wait for check after finishing the meal *Overall lack of attentiveness *Loaded fries were flavorless *Crab cake sandwich was soggy Overall was ignored for the entirety of the dining experience. Server was off chatting with other workers or watching television. Did not enjoy the crab cake sandwich or the loaded fries. Drinks were never refilled. read more

Food was very basic nothing really tasty. I questioned the freshness of the ingredients covered by excessive salty sauce or veggies to compensate for the lack of protein. We couldn't really finish the plates as their freshness was questionable. Service average, I had to repeat my drink order three times, and every time I got it wrong so I gave up. Ambiance old school dinner with a vibe that is closing down and short on personnel. read more

Both my wife and I loved the food. Service was excellent, attentive but not hovering and the ambiance was comfortable and relaxed. Will come back again! read more

Family went after church today and from service to the food, it was awful. Waitress was sweet but we sat with empty glasses for a while as we waited quite some time for our order. We got 2 burgers, a large pizza, and a chicken parm sandwich. When we ordered the waitress asked if we wanted "no pink" or "a little bit of pink" for the burgers. Both my daughter and I asked for a little bit of pink. When we finally got our food, I cut my burger in half and it was very raw in the middle as was my daughter's. I very nicely showed the waitress and asked her if they could be cooked longer or remade. She said she would refund those and get us new ones...ok, things happen. When my husband started to eat his pizza he realized it was dough in the middle and not completely cooked. Ugh. We weren't even going to bring it up - thought we'd bring it home and put it back in the oven so he could eat it. When she brought our fresh burgers, they were plain burgers with nothing on them, no cheese, not even a piece of lettuce. They were disgusting. No seasoning and of course, overcooked. We each ate a few bites and asked for the check and guess what was on there? 2 burgers along with everything else. Unreal. Will never go back. $92 for 2 raw burgers and a doughy pizza. read more

Atmosphere was great. Love the indoor fire pits, especially this time of the year. Service though was a different story. Felt like we were an inconvenience. It was difficult to get a servers attention. Had to go to the bar several times and each time was greeted with an attitude. Overall, good and atmosphere was an 8 out of 10. Service was a negative number which resulted in a final score of a 2. read more

So....it was an interesting experience to say the least! My waitress, Emma Jane, was sweet but she didn't feed me my food when I asked her to. I was dissatisfied.
