What is going on here?…read more I ordered the First Avenue sandwich -- a cheesesteak with bacon and sautéed onions -- and it was an absolute salt bomb. Not "well-seasoned." Not "bold." Just aggressively, overwhelmingly salty. Every bite felt like a dare. Between the bacon and the cheesesteak, it was sodium stacked on sodium with zero balance. I genuinely couldn't finish it after two bites. At that point, it felt like I had just thrown money straight into the trash. The sausage stuffed peppers were decent...thankfully. Not mind-blowing, but at least edible and competently made, which is more than I can say for the sandwich. They saved me from a starving morning. Extremely disappointed. I'm all for flavor, but when the dominant note is "are they trying to preserve this for winter?" something has gone very wrong in the kitchen.

Stopped into Mastriano's Quality Market for lunch and was seriously impressed by the variety they…read moreoffer. You can tell right away this place takes pride in what they do the deli case was loaded, everything looked fresh, and the staff was friendly and quick. I ordered the Johnny Boy and the Buchiee Boy, and both were absolutely fantastic. The flavors were spot on, the portions were generous, and you could taste the quality in every bite. Definitely the kind of sandwiches that make you want to come back and try the whole menu. If you're in the area and craving a legit, high-quality lunch, Mastriano's is a must-stop. I'll definitely be returning!

We had agreed to go to Holsten's so we ended up going there but today a week later we ordered sandwiches through DoorDash. And we are so glad we did! The sandwiches are very high-quality very fresh. The prices are reasonable for the quality and the portion you receive we will definitely be ordering from this place on the regular.

Better or at least equal to Katz without the ridiculous lines. My wife and I shared a fat pastrami…read moresandwich ($18). They also sell pastrami by the pound ($30). I don't think I'll ever go back to Katz unless it's with friends who are tourists.

Because it's "kosher style" and not kosher, the pastrami just wasn't up to par from what you can…read moreget in an old school NYC deli. I was hoping to recreate that experience in the suburbs. Pastrami is a pretty expensive meat, but it was also drier and tougher than I was expecting for the price. I think it was more like corned beef than traditional pastrami. I usually don't do any sauce, but I laid on the mustard just to make a moister sandwich. It was overall pretty disappointing. The employees were nice, but there isn't really any dine in option. We customized it to put on club bread (for an upcharge). Mustard was on side to add at leisure. It was hot out of the bag. It came with pickles and cole slaw. It was overall just a pretty disappointing version of pastrami. In these cases, actual kosher is worth sticking to.

Had a Jonny Ayoh as well as an egg and cheese with their spicy tomato jam plus a hash brown and…read morethey were PHENOMENAL. I will be dreaming about the spicy tomato jam. Service was good they were pretty busy but still made the sandwiches quickly and very well. The ambiance here is always nice, it's always clean and well taken care of.

Portion was generous and ingredients were perfection! Fresh, clean tasting and delish! Staff was friendly and pick up orders were on a rack next to the register. Space itself is a bit of a long hallway vibe so not quite a dine in for a large party unless they offer outdoors. About $15 so not the cheapest but quality was there for sure! Parking around is ample - lot and street.

These days you can't open your front door and take a deep breath without it costing you more than $11. Look at the size of this sandwich!

Pete's has been serving up the neighborhood for a very long time…read more We used to go at lunch in HS and get dollar subs. They were good sized sandwiches geared to us broke kids. It was a blessing at the time. My go to was and still is, cajun turkey, yellow American, lettuce, tomato, mayo on a round Portuguese roll. They also make incredible pepperoni bread, potato salad, chicken cutlets and a bunch of other goodies. I saw they had brownies, donuts, and crumb cake last time I was in.

Normally a reliable deli for sandwiches, but super disappointed with my recent sandwich purchases…read morethere. Ordered a chicken cutlet sub, and basically got a half piece of chicken cutlet cut up for the entire sandwich (see picture).

Because I found this little gem, not even 5 minutes away from me. And they have a PARKING LOT. And they nailed it. I got a Turkey, salami & provolone with lettuce (they use romaine) and tomato - it was awesome and very filling. My friend got a hot chicken cutlet sub with fresh mozz and it was YUM. I was a little jealous, although you can't really compare a Turkey sandwich to that. We also split some sausage, peppers & onions which we both agreed was fire. They have a nice variety of chips and drinks, prepared deli foods, and they're stocked with some imported Italian products like pastas, cookies, sodas etc. And to top it all off, the employees were very attentive, kind & fast! Turns out they opened up in November of 2020 but I would have never known. They'll keep getting my business, and I hope they get a little more recognition because they definitely deserve it. Plus I like having a good deli around the corner from me so please check this place out and support them so they stay lol

Stopped by Sun 12/7 afternoon, first time there. I heard…read morethey had a great chicken caesar wrap & the guy working there recommended the special one with dill pickles & special sauce in it. Very happy I followed his recommendation. This was a really interesting, great sandwich. This is now my favorite chick caesar wrap. Also, it was huge, I only ate half & looking forward to the other half for tonights dinner. Got my son a chick parm with vodka sauce & he was very happy as well. They had many interesting, inventive choices, lots to try. Nice staff & great food. I will definitely be back & highly recommend.

I ordered the Pho Sure sandwich on a multi-grain bread but it came with carrots which I didn't want…read moreand substituted them with roasted peppers. I think this is how the sandwich should be made IMO. Carrots have no business being on this sandwich. The roast beef was cut thin and had so much flavor. The other ingredients were avocado, arugula and tomato which added the right amount of juiciness and the bachans and sriracha sauces pulled it altogether. It was supposed to come with pickles on the side but they ran out. That's what was missing for me but it was still an awesome sandwich.

Absolutely lives up to the hype!…read more The pastrami is insanely tender like melt in your mouth kind of good. The sandwich is definitely messy, but that's how you know it's done right when its packed and stacked with meat! Even with a line out the door, the guys behind the counter cutting the meat are friendly and keep things moving. They even hand out samples while you wait, which makes the whole experience feel welcoming (and honestly makes the wait easier).

Update: I've finally tried the pastrami. The sandwiches are huge. We got the pastrami cheese…read morefries, and a corned beef reuben. The pastrami is really good and is very tender. The fries are steak fries, which I don't typically love but it worked well as a vehicle for the pastrami. The corned beef is a bit dry. We had some pierogies but these were superrrr oily. We also ordered a matzoh ball soup because I've never had it before. But the second I saw them microwave it in a plastic container, I knew I had made a mistake. It was basically just a matzoh ball in very salty chicken bouillon water. I'm sad that was my first matzoh ball soup experience but am not deterred from finding a real one elsewhere. Based on my previous visit and this one, it seems like you should just stick to a classic pastrami sandwich. It's big enough to share between two people. Next time, I'd like to dine in and eat it fresh. The sandwiches also come with a bunch of pickles, which was nice. Tip #1 - there is a parking lot but because there are so many stores and it's next to Bratek Deli, it's a nightmare. It did also happen to be Good Friday, so maybe that made it worse? I don't remember it being that bad the first time around. Tip #2 - I called ahead to place my order but still had to wait 15 minutes extra after the quoted time. They prioritize walk-in customers, so you might as well just order in store.
