    Meatball
    Scotty C.

    I've been dying to come check out Rinaldi's, but with their hour and being up in Summerville, I hadn't made the trip yet. That will definitely change from here on out. I would drive an hour for these sandwiches if I had to. Growing up in boston, I miss the sandwich shops and have a hard time finding the same style of sandwiches in the south. If you're in the same boat, Rinaldi's will solve all your problems. Knowing that it took us this long just to get there for the first time, we both ordered two sandwiches so we could try as much as possible. The four we got were sausage and peppers, chicken parm, steak and cheese, and a meatball. I would have a hard time not ordering all of these again. We took everything to go and even reheating them they were perfect. We also had some cannolis that were excellent and stuffed with ricotta filling. What we didn't realize was that the sides we ordered were supposed to be grabbed by us from the case because we thought they were in the box they gave us with everything else so we missed out on the sides. I would suggest they let people know that in the future... everything else was perfect.

    The sandwiches are amazing and so fresh at such a good price! The staff are very friendly and welcoming. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Love the NY/CT touches added to the deli as it reminds me of home. 100% recommend this spot!

    Wow this is a real deal deli! I had the Reuben and I swear it was the best I've ever had. If there was a location closer to Hanahan, I'd be eating there several times a week. Perfect proportions and service is the best. Please go visit asap!

    Was just like a NY/NJ deli. Great menu (Pork Roll too). Quick service and has energy drinks which is a lunch break necessity.

    An awesome CT style deli! Yes, CT style delis are essentially the same as Arthur Avenue/New York style delis if you grew up in Fairfield County like I did. This deli was originally located in Greenwich, CT and as close to "home" as I can get. We were happy to make the trek to Summerville for a delicious chicken parm sub. This place was no frills, which is what I expected, but the price was on point. $13 and change for a hero. The sauce, cheese and chicken were authentic, Italian style. You can't find food like this in SC! So delicious with a friendly CT staff. Please open a second location on Johns Island. A good deli is what's missing!

    I'm always on the lookout for a great deli and this one is right in my ballpark. It's a small deli and I did a takeout order. I got there right at noon and it started to get really busy after I got done ordering. I got the Reuben for my husband and the BLT for myself. We took them home and ate them and they were both delicious. My husband has been looking for a really good Reuben sandwich in the area and this one is at the top of the list for deliciousness. We will definitely be back in to try some other sandwiches on the menu.

    Italian on roll. Yummy!

    Cute little deli. Easy to get to with lots of parking. Seating for about a dozen inside with additional outside tables. Quick, friendly, efficient cashier took order. Gave a discount for paying in cash. I ordered cold Italian on roll. The Kaiser roll was delicious and they have them delivered from a bakery in NY. Lots of meat on sandwich and twice the cheese other sandwich shops give. Now I want to go again to try their meatball sandwich!

    Outstanding deli, Just like back home. This was our fifth or sixth visit and it continues to be awesome. My wife had the Enzo (left) and I had Off the Boat (right) Absolutely delicious.

    Chicken Hero
    Nicole I.

    As a New Yorker I definitely miss my neighborhood deli. I saw this place as a recommendation on Facebook and saved it in my back pocket for when I had a day off as they close earlier. When I went in even though it wasn't time (lunch) for the hot heros they were willing to make me one. And I was so grateful. I had the chicken sandwhich with bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayo. It tasted exactly like I needed it to!! I also picked up a rainbow bagel - the best rainbow bagels aren't just dyed but have a distinct flavor- this was definitely that. And lastly, I got the rainbow cake because I have been craving rainbow cookies and like with everything else it hit the spot. Highly highly recommend for both the food and customer service!

And I'm happy to report that it exceeded my expectations! The slice of pie was HUGE (very tall) and it had some kind of a sauce/cheese combo on top of the tomatoes that was fantastic. Combined with the pie crust, it reminded me of a slice of Chicago deep dish pizza! My husband and I also shared the following: cinnamon rolls, salted caramel brownie and a white chocolate raspberry bread pudding muffin. All were huge, rich in flavor and very satisfying. I already can't wait to come back again! :)

Because if I need it and it's not there I'll come find you. :) The filling was the best filling I've ever had. The baked portion, too. And I grew up enjoying the bakeries of NYC and the area. What made it so good? It was not a disgustingly sweet, gelatinous blob. It had what I could only call a "natural" style filling. Not gelatinous. Not super sweet. One bite and you'll know that this is the way it's really supposed to be. It will ruin your enjoyment of all other blueberry danishes. Like I said, don't order one. :) Bon appétit.

Was very excited to see this location while I was traveling and my daughter, mom, and I stopped to eat. The New Yorker was good. My daughter liked the club, but I have to say I was so disappointed in the spud. The fact it's 15 dollars and barely has any toppings on it was a huge disappointment. And even with adding butter and sour cream, it was so dry and flavorless. The tea was amazing as always, and the new pineapple inside down lemonade and cheesecake was good. But highly disappointed in the spud, which is traditionally my favorite thing to get.

The staff was friendly and attentive so no mistakes with our order. I had the Savannah Chopped Salad. This was very fresh! Lots of greens, goat cheese, cranberries, grilled chicken and pecans with a sherry shallot vinegarette dressing. The portion was huge! It was delicious. The restaurant and restrooms were clean. Once you order a server delivered food to your table. The manager checked on us twice to refill drinks and check that the food was tasting good. There are plenty of fresh artisan sandwiches, soups, sides and salads. Something for everyone. You definitely want to have their sweet tea. They offer a tea club card that gives free tea after you purchase so many teas. I recommend giving McAllister's a try. Great and fresh food. Good service and a clean restaurant that is well maintained.
