Sandwich ordering area
Romeo D.

I absolutely love coming to Sal's. Their sandwiches are so good. But even more the service is amazing! I really enjoy the Cuban Sandwich! And their fries are fantastic and crisp. The empanadas are also great. Go check it out.

My Italian

Sal's Bodega Charcuterie, located in southwest Tampa off of Interbay makes great sandwiches with authentic Cuban sides. They also offer special hot meals that vary weekly. It's a small clean place, but they have a decent parking lot in the back. There have a small selection of groceries-more impulse than necessities-along with desserts and bottled drinks. I stopped off for lunch on a Friday afternoon, and though it was busy, ordered from the counter and received my food promptly. There were probably a dozen customers while I was there and everyone was patient as there is only one grill and prep area. Despite that, Sal kept the line moving and he and his helper got the food out pretty quickly. My Italian sub compared well to most any sandwich shop in the bay. For around $10 and 20 minutes, Sal's hits the lunch time sweet spot. Give them a try if you're in south Tampa and want a nice break from chains.

Roast beef deluxe

Hands down, one of the best Cubans in town! I can't say enough good things about this place. Staff treats you like family, wide variety of food, perfect atmosphere to enjoy lunch or a coffee.

Cuban with lettuce and tomato. Amazing
Dylan R.

This is a small convenient store that serves some amazing food. The staff is super friendly and Sal the owner is usually there. This is definitely on of the best Cuban and roast pork sandwiches in Tampa Bay.

Sandwich bar

Awesome new local Port of Tampa shop with snacks, great handmade sandwiches and local desserts. Only if there was a brewery.

Menu as of 8/29

His empanadas are unreal! Everything is so delicious, I believe he might have the best Cuban sandwich in town!

Cuban sandwich, Malta, champagne kola

Forget anything you new about any Cuban sandwich you have had before. SALS HAS THE BEST CUBAN SANDWICH!!! I have been in Tampa my entire life. I was raised all up and down Armenia and if you know anything about Armenia you know there is a ton of different culture foods from the Caribbean and South America. This place is a hidden gem so not hesitate to give them your money. Everyone there is super friendly and Sal is great. Moving to South Tampa I was on the search for a Hispanic super market and even though I didn't find one that sells culantro I did stumble upon this amazing deli/bodega. For those of you who are looking for validation from someone who knows flavor this is the message of validation right here. Side note- My mother makes the best pastelillos (Puerto Rican empanadas) therefore thats the last thing I order out because I have had the best ones at home. Sals is the only place myself and my mom will ever purchase empanadas.

If you consider yourself a foodie and you're in the St. Petersburg area, you have to make a stop at…read moreMazzaro's Italian Market on 22nd Avenue North. Parking is a bit tricky because the place is so packed with shoppers and diners. My dining companion, and I found a side street a few blocks away with street parking. I cannot adequately describe the quantity of Italian products in this store/bakery/wine, and cheese shop. There are so much to look at you will probably feel like you're on sensory overload. Take a ticket for the bakery counter. Take a ticket for the deli counter. Order a sandwich and baked goods to enjoy in the covered dining area outside the front of the store. I don't I don't a companion and I visited on a Saturday afternoon at an hour with considered post lunch rush. We were so wrong. The place is packed! Shoppers of all sorts are picking up weekly groceries, baked goods, deli items, cheese, wine, candies, and any manner of specialty product products. Despite the long lines to pick up bakery items or deli items, the line to check out, moves very swiftly. The majority of people seem to know how the place functions and what order to pick up things to check out in the most swift fashion without having to backtrack. On our next visit, we will have a better sense of what the routine is. I highly recommend a visit to the store if you're in the area, and save room for a bakery item!

Review for their Italian sub only because otherwise this place is amazing…read more Did the sub have good quality Italian meats and cheeses on it? Perhaps. Was it then drowned in banana peppers and a gallon of Italian dressing? Yes. Is all you could taste sour after sour on top of sour? Yes. So was this a good sub? No. It was terrible.

THE BEST DELI SANDWICH I'VE HAD IN SUCH A LONG TIME! Reminiscent of NJ/NYC deli sandwiches back in…read morethe 2000s / early 2010s. Got the roast beef club on cuban bread, added mayo and pickles, and it was toasted to perfection. The roast beef was so rare and tender, the bacon was one of the best bacons I've ever had (insanely crispy but not oily, and maintained it's crispiness the entire meal even though I'm such a slow eater). The tomatoes and lettuce were firm--didn't squeeze out of the sandwich or make a mess. And I'm usually not a fan of pickles but it was so fresh and added a flavor to break up the meat + bread taste! The service was phenomenal. It's a family-owned restaurant and everyone is so nice. The guy who took my order was so patient and helpful (I was having major decision paralysis). The vibe is clean, spacious, cute, and super homey / themed. It's also part grocery with German bevs, snacks, and dried goods (and also fresh goods behind the counter and on the menu ofc). I def want to go back and pick up some goods to bring home to my family and I will def be back again for lunch!!!

Kind of a bizarre place. Is it a gas station? Is it a convenient store? Is it a restaurant?…read more What in the world is going on inside? You walk in and it's like a transformed gas station into kind of a deli, kind of a convenience store, and kind of a restaurant. Super duper weird. The menu has a ton of stuff on it. I was feeling like getting some food from my people so thought I'd try this German spot. Up first was the #3 Reuben for $13.95. I love me a good Reuben. However, this is not the place to get a Reuben. Super thin, barely any meat or flavor. It is mostly eating bread. Avoid. Up next, I can't remember what the other sandwich was, but it was bad. I think it was a Cuban, but not sure. It was straight bread. Take a look at the pic. Now, the only above average food item I tried was the German potato salad. I would come back here only for that. Tons of German beers here and souvenirs.

This place is awesome!!! Make a plan, drive there now! We…read morewent for lunch before driving back to Cocoa Beach. The food is amazing. We started with a meatball sub (don't break my balls) and Philly cheesesteak (yo mamma). Both delicious, hot and filled with the good stuff. And the bread? Worth the trip on its own lol. Next we tried 3 of their famous chicken cutlet tacos. Caesar salad, Alfredo and vodka pasta. Super messy and super delish. We packed more than half of all that for home. Of course we also took a piece of lemon cello cake and pack of black & white cookies for dessert. Again, both outstanding The place was busy for lunch, cute and family feeling even with a pretty long wait for the food. Fresh and delicious, we will surely be back.

Generally, I was disappointed. In this case, less would be more…read more Reasonably busy for a weekday lunch time. Interior seating seems limited for how busy they there. I was there with my mom and my five month old daughter in a stroller, which wasn't easy. This was my first time here and the process of ordering and then waiting for your order to be called was stressful. I checked the menu online before going and there was no mention of the slice specials which I couldn't see easily from the line. I also couldn't see the slice bar or flavors available while in line so that wasn't helpful. The fountain for drinks is behind the counter so you can't get yourself a refill. Instead, you have to go through the crowd again to ask an associate to do it for you. Associates were helpful with my questions. No one was wiping tables down between customers. I ordered the Yo Adrian, Bianca slice, cannoli and lobster tail. The Yo Adrian was okay. Too much soft bread, not enough cheese, good amount of onions and some of the meat was chunks rather than shaved. The Bianca slice was primarily burnt on the bottom and didn't seem fresh which is sad considering we were there before noon. The cannoli was good. The lobster roll pastry was great; likely because it was fresh. The ice cream is in boxes, which have had the top cut off and the cardboard was wet and peeling in one of the boxes I saw while waiting in line. I think skipping the ice cream seems like a safe choice. I won't be rushing back but will return at some point to try a breakfast sandwich on a NY bagel and order a whole pie to try so it's fresh.

A Little Taste of New York in Palm Harbor!…read more If you love New York City vibes, Lucky Dill is definitely a place worth checking out! From the NYC-inspired decor to the classic deli atmosphere, this restaurant brings a little piece of the Big Apple to Florida. The menu has so many options, from traditional New York-style deli sandwiches to soups, comfort food, and an impressive selection of desserts. And let's talk about the bakery! I especially love the New York theme throughout the restaurant. It's such a fun concept and definitely makes this place stand out from your typical dining spot.

The one thing that really got to me was that there was a customizable sandwich section, so I get a roast beef sandwich. Every topping is extra money, even the basics... lettuce, tomato, mayo. Lastly get this, they wouldn't add pickles to my sandwich... the waitress said I could pay for a couple of spears on the side, but they won't add pickle chips to any sandwich... at a place advertised as a sandwich place... named "Lucky dill deli"... it felt pretty ironic and kinda bizarre! Other than that, everything was OK. Mozz sticks were great, service was ok. Will probably not be returning, but not a bad place for a quick bite.

We asked the cashier for recommendations and he mentioned the Pork Drizzler and Billy Cheesesteak. We ordered those and a side of fries. I asked for mushrooms on the side for the cheesesteak. Portions are generous so we decided to split both sandwiches. Our favorite was the Billy. The Drizzler was juicy and tasty but the Billy hit it out of the park. The fries were thick and salted just right. I will add that the service here was exceptional. Will definitely be back next time in Tampa!
