It's been several years since I have been here and was looking to get some deli meats and cheeses…read morefor sandwiches this week. In typical deli fashion, you grab a number and wait for yours to be called. It does get very busy and it's kind of hard to see the exact selection behind the case. I was a bit bummed they were out of the teriyaki chicken breast but they had plenty of other stuff . I was waited on promptly as well . Everything was packed well and came to a total of $11 and some change (not too shabby!) . Other freezer items and sauces, chips etc can be purchased too. I'll be back soon to try some other things and maybe stop by Eileen's next door for some baked goods (they were closed this time around, maybe a blessing in disguise calorie wise, eh?) PS- the roast beef and cheddar sandwich I had for lunch today was delicious!

Kind of on the fence about this place. I've heard good things about it, prices are reasonable…read morehowever it's just set up strange. Cold cuts are available at the first counter when you walk in. Number system. They have a variety but they don't have Circle U hard salami. I can live with this. Cheeses are at a different counter. There are spices, breads and such in a separate room. A little confusing. Almost like a wanna be "Guercio's". Whatever. I guess what really ticked me off - there is a tip jar. FOR WHAT???? Handing me bagged cold cuts? I'll be back at some point. Just not anytime soon.

As there was only 7 people waiting. But it turned out they were ordering food for their businesses or similar because most orders were for 4-more sandwiches. Which explained the wait. Demographic was definitely us Senior citizens. Bathroom is tiny but clean. All in all a very pleasant experience. Any time I'm in the area I would definitely stop by again.

I was introduced to Charlie the Butcher many, many years ago. My goodness, it was back in the 90's…read morewhen I was in college and patroned their express location in the Ellicott Square Building downtown. Their roast beef sandwiches were the best. The roast beef is so tender, they give you a good portion on the roll and there's a nice flavor, leaves me salivating. It's been quite sometime since I had one, I finally had some time and stopped at this location. I regret to say I'm disappointed in myself because I was stopping for a roast beef and ended up making the mistake of being spontaneous and ordered the grilled BBQ prime rib sandwich. I'm sorry, I didn't like it. So, this sandwich costs $15.99 (comes with nothing extra), it was also on a roll, there was no BBQ sauce (I assumed there would be) but it was just dry, plain, devoid of much flavor, they topped it with provolone cheese, a couple pieces of peppers and some onions but it didn't hit the spot for me. The Costanzo roll was overbearing. I learned a valuable lesson today, "stick with what you love about the place!" So, I'll be back for that roast beef another day. The inside is reminiscent of the local 80's fast food joints of Buffalo, I would call it a little shack. You walk in, lean back, look up at the menu, order and walk around to pay and pick up your food. There is a small seating area, a few booths to sit a party of four. Pick up your food at the counter after they call your name. Nothing fancy, just a quick little spot to eat.

We ended up getting Buffalo chicken sausage and beef on weck sausages, both were great. Also got a stuffed hot pepper thing which was awesome, and Allen burgers which we didn't try yet. The grocery store also has many unique items like locally made foods and specialty goods. They had a ton of employees working which was great because everything moved fast. I highly recommend visiting if you're a foodie!

Their sausage special this week was taco sausage for $2.99 a lb. So I had to try it.... Real good. The store is always crowded but you can get fast service at the meat, deli and cashiers. Parking lot is small but people are in and out so fast that I've never had a problem getting a space. The store is kinda small and located right in the middle of a neighborhood. Their homemade Polish sausage is so good, reminds me of my childhood. Cold cuts are sliced per order and better prices than any chain grocery store. I recommend the drive if you have never been there.

That's how I came to learn about all this company does and has been doing for the community for decades it seems. They give back and it seems their community loves them for all of it. I'm glad I got to witness something like this here and look forward to my continued patronage.

And the fourth person in our party had a huge bowl of delicious ham and bean soup made in-house. We all had excellent espresso and superb cannoli. I have to mention the beautiful decor, which is very Italian islands. The place is a real treasure. Friendly staff, too. Dalfonso's is at 162 Allen Street in Buffalo, N. Y.

I enjoyed having a conversation with the man that I assume is the owner (though I didn't catch his name, sorry!) But you can tell he loves what he does and takes pride in his deli. He showed me around the shop and all of the cool things to eat! The diner itself is perfect for a quick bite, nice lunch or a takeout option for when you are on the run. I asked him to make me his best sub, and he did! He made me what is called the "Willy Green" which is a shaved steak sub with stuffed bana peppers and mayo...omg this thing is delicious. The only thing I would have changed is to add some heat to it. Like red pepper flakes or hit sauce, but that's a personal preference! They also hold events here which are great for networking and getting involved in the community. I'm so glad this will be a place I can, and will, frequent!

I did enjoy the ranch aioli on my turkey bacon ranch and my wife enjoyed her Italian assorted, though the banana peppers were too hot for her to eat. While the sandwiches were big, I think it was due to the amount of bread. While I don't have any negative notes, they are basic. I did not like how the prices on the website did not align with what I paid. They were a couple more dollars per sandwich. I also had to stop at the bank to get cash because they weren't accepting cards at the time. As far as the atmosphere, it seemed very dark, dingy and unwelcoming. I may try again in the future.
