Stopped here in the final minutes of a bae-cay weekend in Norwalk. We wanted flavorful breakfast options and coffee somewhere close to South Norwalk station. We weighed a few options; and this place just made the most sense - BOY, DID WE CHOOSE RIGHT! The space is cozy and inviting. The staff is the perfect blend of friendly and focused. THE FOOD packs flavor way above its price point! Typical breakfast and lunch staples were present, but also some unique Greek and Mexican dishes. Everything was delicious and prepared in a reasonable time! We finished our meal with time for chatting and coffee refills. We left SoNo Harbor Deli And Cafe with full stomachs, smiles and zero rush to our train back to the city. read more

Every expectation of a diner/cafe is met here, plus a little extra! It's quick, filling and affordable. What more could you ask for? I visit a friend in Norwalk frequently and we make it a point to stop in for breakfast every time I'm around. Whether we've sat at the bar or table, the service has been great. I've tried a few different menu items with no complaints. The food is always fresh and made to order. You can get in and out in less than 45 minutes, depending on how quick you can eat. But I like to take my time and enjoy every last bite. read more

In need of some breakfast fuel on our roadtrip and decided to stop in here ! There's a little parking in the back , but it's off of a Main Street ! The girl greeted us and was very friendly and took our order . Looked very clean inside , we came at like 630 am so it wasn't super busy ! I ordered the California breakfast wrap which was $9 it came with egg, avocado , bacon and pepper jack cheese. It wasn't bad but honestly kinda tiny , there was definitely a lot More room in the wrap than what was put in there . If I was in the area Probably wouldn't come back again, would probably try some where else. read more

Quality food, clean, classic diner feel. Got a breakfast sandwich. It came in a roll which is usually a bad sign. But not here. Delicious roll with eggs (2), bacon, cheese. Very good. Got the fruit cup. A little melon heavy but fine. Wife got breakfast burritos that she says was great. Service efficient and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Unfortunately my wrap was really bad, borderline inedible. The wrap was grilled, why would you grill a wrap with cold lettuce??? Not even grill... PANINI PRESS. The lettuce was wilted, hot, and disgusting. Just when I think I'm over it, I have an intrusive thought about how bad this wrap was. It was so bad that a day later it is distracting me from my daily tasks. I think this wrap fundamentally changed my world view, and it will take a long time to recover and become the man I was before I attempted to eat this $13 catastrophe. Not much else to say really... Sad. read more

Great sandwich's salads! Fast service! Casual deli like atmosphere and ambiance. A great stop after the nearby aquarium.

Stopped by here on a lunch break. Very welcoming ambiance and felt at ease. Will be back

The food is good and the service is great and the parking is very nice the food is always fresh. Nice atmosphere read more

Sono's house salad is absolutely delicious and add a bit of their grilled chicken and it makes a spectacular meal!

Nice little deli off of SONO busy street. Parking is super tight and almost non existent and then you need to pay for meter parking. The staff was less than welcoming. It's a normal deli nothing to really write home about. The tuna melt cheese was barely melted we asked for avacado to be added and you could barely see it. Another coworker ordered Rueben with a side salad and the salad was added in the take out container along with his hot salad so by the time we got back to office it was pretty wilted. Souvlaki salad had very moist chicken that was flavored well and one grape leaf with mushy tomatoes. As you walk out of the deli towards the back entrance you see a stand up violet with glass see through casing that had open cake box and veggies that were just loosely tossed in, wasn't a great look. Maybe just an off day? They do take credit card read more

Only spotted by the gentleman working behind the counter. He said hello and asked if I'd like some water. I said I'd like coffee. He worked quickly to get me a cup. He had to keep nudging the other waitress to help me. Finally she asked if i needed a menu. It wasn't automatic, which was odd. No actual greeting to welcome me to the restaurant. She didnt ask if i needed my parking validated. After i arrived, more people came in and the " Good Mornings "" we're flowing.... Wish I was greeted like that.... Just saying.... Hollandaise sauce for my eggs Benedict was bland. There was no flavor to it. Very plain. read more

With a few tweaks, This place has the potential to be great. Staff may be one of their biggest downfalls. First, no one speaks when you walk in the door. I wasn't sure if I could just sit anywhere, or if I had to order first then choose a table. I went to the bar/counter and just sat down because it felt safe. Throughout my meal I noticed other people walking thru the front door experiencing the same thing; no one speaking, looking confused, & being unsure of where to go and what to do. Food was good. What I wanted they were out of, so I went with a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwhich with a side of corned beef hash. The sanwhich had a very comforting corner store feel. Corner stores & delis typically make the best bacon egg cheese sanwhiches. The hash was fresh and had the crunchy pieces that I like to give it texture and that homey feeling. Customer service wasn't bad, until your thirsty and your server isn't paying any attention to see you're out of juice. Lol. They have free parking on the side and behind the building. I asked about the parking and was told that I had to put my license plate # in an i-pad, which I never saw. I didn't know, so My server did it for me. That's when I realized the slight issue... They treat everyone as if they had been there several times before. It's a slight cockiness, like we don't have to earn your loyalty and trust, you should already be a fan." OnceI recieved the check, like that was the end of my service. I just left the money on the bar. Didn't get a thank you, have a nice day, good bye, a smile or anything from my server or any other employees, so as I was walking out, I thought about it, tuned around and went back to retrieve some of the excess tip money. Felt like just another number and totally Unappreciated... Return: Maybe if I'm walking around or at an event in the area, but intentionally? Probably not read more

Great service, friendly staff and a clean restaurant. Unfortunately the food just wasn't good. The cheesesteak tasted more like ground beef than chopped steak. Also tried the Turkey Club, which was decent but not memorable. If you're in SoNo, there are a lot of great restaurants. This one will work in a pinch. read more

The food, service was excellent and great ambience. I had a tuna melt and price was very reasonable highly recommended!

It's hit or miss here, sadly, because I want it to be a hit at Sono Harbor Deli every time. Most of the staff is pleasant and the coffee drinks are always great. The food is just okay in all my experiences. Yesterday I sat in and couldn't wait to hurry up and get out of there. Firstly, there were flies buzzing around the table so we needed to move to a different spot. There were only a few people in there at the time, but there was a child sitting on a barstool with an iPad playing songs louder than the restaurants music and it was extremely annoying while trying to have a conversation. My food was disappointing and I wrapped half of it to go so I could fix it at home with some real flavor. Worst of all, an employee was whipping around the room like the Tasmanian devil with a broom, sweeping aggressively, while I'm trying to eat a meal. She was abruptly yanking each chair out of place and banging them around the tables to clear space for sweeping, with no regard for the food on my table or consideration that it was an open opportunity for dust to fly around and into my food. It was the middle of the day, not any time near closing hours. I was pretty grossed out at the thought of my exposed food getting floor dirt on it and the complete disregard for all the metal furniture banging around us was the icing on top. read more

I don't know why we keep giving this place chances. Probably due to convenience. Doubt the owner will bother contacting us as his staff was protective of giving out his name and refused to let me be able to talk to him. He's "in and out" when I asked what time he would be in. We ordered the "All In One"; which is Bacon, Sausage, Egg, and Cheese with potatoes. My wife bites into it and she found that it was pretty much just a potato sandwich. We opened it up and found one slice of bacon on the left one half sausage link on the right and a slice of ham. Not to be picky but normally when you pay double the price for three meats you actually get the three meats normal portion. We called as we thought this was a error by the Chef. The server called back and confirmed that's how they make it. So another words when you order the "All In One" they decrease all the normal amount of meat you get when you order a bacon/egg or sausage/egg or ham/egg when they make it and charge you double the price and pack it full of hash browns. DO NOT ORDER THIS. Waitress was pretty rude by the way like she couldn't be bothered for us questioning this. She requested us to bring it back so they could "show the chef" when I told her I'd be happy to send them pictures vs. walking all the way back she backed down as if we were trying to pull a fast one. Photos below. I'd be happy to consider changing the review score if the owner calls. Pretty crappy you have to make an offer to get a hold of the owner...be better. read more

Great food, and relaxing cafe with a comforting setting of the locals. The service is above and beyond for all walks of life.

I was in there for lunch and there was this older man there being a creep towards one of the waitresses, he literally said out loud do you want to take a shower with me , please keep in mind he's 65/70 she's 21/22 years old, also the owner was sitting in there at the time and he did not do anything The food is okay but the cooks always get the order wrong. My chicken was tasted like rubber. It wasn't a good experience at all. read more

I like the breakfast here usually. They have illy coffee and a nice variety came for breakfast it waitresseswere talking way too much. We asked for a refills on the coffee and had to wait for one of them to set up the brew- with 2 large pots this should not happen. My potatoes were cold because they sat so long while they talked. Still good food but service needs improvement. read more

Food was AWSOME, but the tables are very close together and the service staff was a little behind. Overall very nice meal, but very small space you might be rubbing elbows with the patrons a table over from you. read more

I love coming to this place for breakfast. The food is great and not over priced. Its such a cute little cafe and the waitresses are all friendly. We stopped by today and had a late breakfast. I ordered the BLT with fries and a coffee. The food was tasty! I wish there was a bit more bacon to my sandwich, but besides for that it was really good. They serve Illy coffee which is my favorite! it's always so good and they refill your cup as many times as you would like. The waitress was kind enough to even make me a cup to go! I highly recommend coming here if you haven't tried it yet. read more

I really liked this place but cannot eat there again based on my experience today. Ordered the avocado toast and coffee. Comes with two eggs. The eggs literally were refrigerator temp. I took two bites and it turned my stomach off. I couldn't eat anything else. The whole meal was like it came out the fridge. She offered other food. I just couldn't eat anything at this point. I went to pay and was curious how she would handle it. She said she had to charge me but felt bad. I feel bad too. Not good. I won't eat there again based on her having to charge me. read more

While we were in town for the holidays, we stopped in to have breakfast with a few family members who had suggested this restaurant. We arrived early on a Saturday morning because we were told that this restaurant gets packed. It is a small, cute restaurant with bar seating and also tables. It is on a busy street but there is a private parking lot in the back of the restaurant. The menu has a wide variety of options for all different picky eaters. They server Boars Head products which is a plus for us. Our table ordered hash and eggs, western omelette, chocolate chip pancakes and the Nutella pancakes. The short stack (two pancakes) is way more than enough food because the pancakes were HUGE! My omelette was made perfectly and it was overflowing with ham and vegetables. $8.50 for an egg white western omelette? Not too bad. The home fries were delicious - you could tell they were homemade and not some bad frozen potatoes that were slung on the grill. The coffee was strong and delicious and our service was great. I will definitely be back and hope to try the lunch menu next time. Skip the other diners in the area and check SoNo Harbor Cafe out! read more

So thankful a friend said let's go to SONO Harbor deli! (How did I miss this place???) Tip: parking lot in back, pay for parking, enter through back door, parking validation right there. Easy. Friendly attentive staff. Will ask you about a beverage right away and they come quick for your order. If you want some time, they will gladly accommodate you. They have a solid menu with many options. I had a mushroom, spinach omelette. Skipped the potatoes, but they looked good. The rye toast was wonderful. I enjoyed the coffee as well. Perfect breakfast. Tip: go up to the counter to pay. read more

Very solid food, good service, fun atmosphere. Definitely the kind of place I'd go again if I found myself in the area.

Painfully average sub on par with the grocery store grab-and-go. Pile of bland deli meat on a sort-of fresh roll that fell apart in my hands prepared by a man without wearing gloves. Come on guys, get some nicer bread, kick up the spice, throw on some peppers, whip up a quick signature spread, put on some food prep gloves. Packets of ketchup were included? What? Who on earth...? Give me an experience that makes me want to return - this ain't it. read more

Super cute place near the marina. My wife loves a good chicken club and really enjoyed the spiced chicken. I got the buffalo wrap but mine could have used more sauce. Looked like they had a great breakfast menu, looking forward to trying it. read more

3.5: We came here for brunch and the food is pretty good. I was, however, disappointed after I had finished the California breakfast wrap ($6) that it didn't have the advertised avocado in it. I didn't feel like making a stink about it and I had already eaten everything, but definitely a bummer. Another bummer was that the food took a long time to come out, which seems like it might be the place's m/o. It was pretty busy in there and some people were just ordering takeout. The waitresses were all very nice and were milling around in case you needed anything. I would also suggest some better restaurant temperature control, way too hot in there on a nice autumn day. Overall, I may return one day for brunch or lunch, hoping for a more on point experience. The menu has a lot of options. read more

This place was great!!! My husband and I were in town for a wedding and stopped here for lunch. Based on the crowd of locals, we knew it must be good. He had the Tuscan Panini and I had the Greek Wrap. We both had the house salad as a side. Service was a bit slow, but I think that was only because we hit them during the lunch rush. The staff was friendly, and I noticed that the person who took our order was back bugging the kitchen a few times to make sure it was on its way. We took our food to go and ate it at a park a few blocks away. A very nice experience. This place is a neighborhood gem. We will be back the next time we are in town. read more

Absolute loved and devoured the homemade corn beef Benedict. I will rate any place that has homemade corn beef hash 5/5 stars because it is truly the way to my heart. My other half ordered the original eggs Benedict and devoured his meal as well The potato's were on the under seasoned side but paired nicely with the meal! Service was friendly and the Cold Brew (Lily) was a tasty treat as well :) read more

We ordered the California Breakfast wrap and two egg sandwiches. One with ham and the other with sausage. There was nothing that special or tasty about the egg sandwiches and bread to content ratio was off with too much bread. The wrap had more filling but again nothing that would create a desire to order again. When one can make breakfast sandwiches at home that are better ( less costly) the convenience is a moot point. read more

This place is usually ok - but the last two times I've grabbed an order to go has been trash...this is the "California Wrap" this looks like gross as hell - turkey bacon isn't cooked, eggs watery - there's maybe a sliver of tomato and absolutely way too much cheese...absolutely freaking gross mush mess. Avoid this place - I'll be going to Caffe Social instead going forward. read more
