Pleasant and attentive staff. Short wait time. Place is small but not tight. Plenty of indoor seating. The food was ready within 10 minutes. I ordered the special for the day which was the Guac Attack. On the menu it includes, grilled chicken, guacamole, bacon, mixed greens on a plain wrap. I chose a Ciabatta instead and exed out the bacon. It was way better than I expected. I want to go back and try the chicken cheese steak next! read more

4.5 stars for one of the best delis in the area! I did order a turkey club which they forgot to put tomato on (still tasted delicious -- very thick, especially for the price which was good). I really liked how many different drinks there were to choose from and how clean the place was. Staff were very nice and our sandwiches came out in about 10 minutes. This place does a lot of pick up orders, especially during lunch time, so consider ordering in advance if you're in a rush. read more

I was always at Corner Deli when it was on Dixwelle Ave for years. Now that it is on Whitney with a different owner it's not the same. The young lady at the front has been rude EVERY TIME! She LOOKS SO MISERABLE and her customer service towards me is disposable I saw the owner and daughter before the new owners and I was informed of the new ownership. It's not the same. Business is Business. Parking lot empty when I pull in. It was never empty. Stayed busy. Now I have a completely wrong order that I now have to call about in the morning for me and my daughter. It's not okay. I work so hard and I am going through a lot. I wish the original owner was still running this place or at least his daughter. This is SAD. I did stop buying but because I needed a pick me up this was my spot. NOT ANYMORE read more

My brother claimed this was the best chicken cutlet sandwich he ever had so I had to give it a shot! Was definitely worth the drive the sandwich was huge and delicious.

Great Italian combo sub. I will be back when I'm out that way again! Next time I'll try the suggested chicken cutlet.

After hearing some good things about The Corner Deli I decided to give it a try today. It was well worth the trip.I ordered the chicken cutlet sub with lettuce, tomato, bacon, and raw onions. Probably one of the best sandwiches I ever had. Great service, and very reasonable prices. read more

A very home style and friendly deli. A variety of options ranging from classics to created. They have decent prices and sizable portions but the reason for the one star is, I found a wrapper from some sort of equipment in my lettuce (See attached photos). This is not acceptable at all and it a hazard is every way. I hope in the future the sandwiches and ingredients are double checked. read more

Obsessed with the corner deli and go there all the time! It's super convenient and they tell you the food will be ready in 15-20, but ends up being ready in like 10 minutes. I recommend the Buffalo chicken on a roll. Hands down one of the best spots in town for a sandwich! read more

Walking in, I was super excited about this deli because it has a really big menu and it seemed pretty clean. I liked the seating and I liked the atmosphere. The parking lot was also bigger than I expected, so it wasn't that hard to park. However, I literally had to wait 45 minutes for my food. About every 10 minutes, one of the cashiers would ask me if I had gotten my food yet, but they didn't bother to check on my order. Finally, 40 minutes after I originally ordered, they put the order in. I was actually shocked that I went to a deli (which wasn't actually that busy) and it took 45 minutes to get a sandwich. Other people for their food much quicker. They also didn't offer to do anything to correct the situation, which was tough. When I got my sandwich, it was fine. I got a vegetable sandwich on a roll. It had mushrooms, eggplant, onions, and peppers. The vegetables inside were ok, but i wish there were more onion. I also thought the bun was really boring. I'd prefer a toasted bun (they don't toast them or anything). Especially if I have to wait 45 minutes! read more

The Corner Deli is always worth it: the sandwiches are large and filling. My favorite is The Chris. You can't go wrong with any chicken cutlet order. They have sides like macaroni salad, coleslaw and lots of chips to choose from. I always leave there satisfied. Service is prompt; I've never had to wait long for an order. The price is decent and the place is welcoming and clean. Although it's a takeout venue, there are tables and chairs where you can sit as well. read more

Best place ever. Chicken cutlets are incredible as well as the friendly service! I've been coming here for years. Cannot speak highly enough of this business. Well done, Corner Deli!

Menu has a ton of options with lots of daily specials. I ordered the Chris- with chicken cutlet, mozzarella, prosciutto and pesto mayo on a sub. Sub was enormous, and comes with two fairly large chicken cutlets. Had very small amount of pesto mayo (could barely taste it), and prosciutto seemed more like a piece of cold cut ham. Nonetheless, it was really good with tons of flavor. There's not really any area to sit down- so perfect take out sub place. Will definitely be back read more

Thanks to a fellow Yelper's suggestion, my coworkers and I grabbed some sandwiches from the Corner Deli. I ordered the #5 panini (grilled chicken, tomato, feta, red onion), the boys ordered 2 chicken parm grinders & a Caesar chicken wrap. My panini was so large, that I was only able to eat half...and that was pushing it. The bread was crunchy and the ingredients were fresh. The feta was as good as Boar's Head (If you haven't tried it, you're missing out!). The grinders got two thumbs up. They had the perfect amount of cheese and sauce. The wrap was a little messy to eat, but well worth it! We will definitely be adding the Corner to our rotation! Tip: Call ahead, you'll still end up waiting, but it won't take as long! read more

I'm confused about what has happened to this place. We came here all the time a few years ago and were excited to return for their delicious sandwiches. We placed an order and picked it up. When we got home we noticed only one sandwich was correct. The others were not only wrong but the ingredients weren't included or fresh. We had brown lettuce, our Italian sub was only a few pieces of meat and one piece of cheese with nothing else on it, what they said was a Cali chick had no roasted red peppers, avocado or mayo. During COVID I know restaurants are trying their best but considering 3/4 sandwiches were wildly incorrect/unappealing, we decided to call the restaurant and let them know. We were met with hostility, bombarding questions and were eventually hung up on when we asked what our options were to get the correct order. We were looking forward to supporting a long time delicious local business in a time of crisis and it's sad to say that we will be taking a break from coming here after this experience read more

We came here for a quick bite to eat. The space has a plethora of chip and drink options, with a small alcove of fridges for beverages and a whole aisle worth of chips to choose from. The menu is clearly on display for easy ordering. My cali-chick was all right. The chicken was slightly dry, but the wet red peppers and perfectly ripe avocado helped to add moisture. The pesto mayo was very lightly flavored, making it more of a cohesive than distinct element in the sandwich. Encasing it all was a wonderfully crisp, supple ciabatta. In all, the sandwich was refreshing and light. I'd come back to see how their other menu items are. read more

Their steak and cheese is massive! One good thing about corner deli is that they don't sacrifice quantity over quality. So even though my steak and cheese was so big, it was still so good!!! The steak was seasoned great and there was just the perfect amount of cheese layered on top. The sub roll bread was also fluffy and fresh. Perfect for takeout! read more

To say they are incredible, is to say nothing at all. I was hesitant at first, they need to put some type of welcoming picture with food on it, it looks a bit office like from first glimpse. I was sooooo pleasantly surprised when I stepped in. Establishment looks very tidy clean. My food came out super fast. Me and my baby daughter loved it, grilled veggies on the roll. It's was really good and was huge!! And it did not cost 12$. This is my new go to place read more

I cannot even describe how good every single menu item is. I always love to see their specials. They are perfect for a summer lunch (my go to order is the chicken Caesar wrap on a wheat wrap) or a quick bite to eat in between classes at Quinnipiac. The staff is so friendly and they really go above and beyond!!! read more

Never had a better deli near Quinnipiac. First time, it was busy. Took around 10 minutes, and for about 12 dollars I got a turkey club ($7.50) which was really good and is worth every penny. Then there's the soup. Its soup, you can't go wrong with chicken noodle. Except for one thing... The packaging sucked for the soup as it spilled all over the bag and the seat was soiled on due to the bag and cover of the soup ripping. Second time, the club was great as usual and I got some onion rings which were around the same price as the soup at $4 extra. I love onion rings, and these were great. The bag was showing parts of the remains of the fryer and they also are on the bottom where the plastic tray was for the rings. Despite this, they were not soggy which is a major plus. I love headng to this place and will go again and again for more great local sandwiches. But in all seriousness, get better bags and soup covers. That soup became a runaway and spilled all over my seat cover due to that soup cover falling a part. read more

Love this place! Great selection of salads, subs, and wraps. Also a variety of drinks and chips to add onto your order. I usually get the mushroom panini and it always leaves me full. You can order ahead of time or wait about 5-10 min for your order. Plus, there's plenty of parking! read more

I've been going to The Corner Deli for a couple years and it's easily my favorite deli in the area. I work in a small office just down the road on Dixwell so I get it for lunch almost every day. I used to get strictly steak and cheeses, which is arguably their best sandwich, however, I've started to branch out more recently to other sandwiches. Their Chapelle Show, French Dip, Buff Chick, Pastrami nightmare and daily cold cut combos are all awesome. If you like salads they serve an enormous Cobb salad for $9 or you could get a chicken Caesar for around $7. Their portions are huge, and given their popularity i would say the prices are reasonable. The Corner Deli is the quintessential deli you want in your area for high quality deli meats and custom sandwiches that blow subway and other chains out of the water. It's no surprise that the lines around lunch time are usually out the door. Make sure to call about 20 mins ahead so you can just swoop in and grab your sandwich. No point waiting in line some rookie. read more

When I unwrapped my chicken parm grinder, all the customary smells wafted out at me... including, I swear to god, butter. Maybe they cook the cutlets in it? I don't know, but that, and the attractive-looking bread, only increased my expectations, which were already high from the online reputation that I'd seen given to the Corner Deli. My expectations were met, and then some. The breading on the cutlets reminded me of the Wethersfield Pizza House... and anyone that's been there knows that this is a high compliment indeed. The sauce stood out as being some of the freshest and tomatoiest that I'd had from a grinder shop - I'd bet everything that it's made in-house. And the bread was every bit as good as I'd thought, contributing its own noticeable density and flavor to the sandwich. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other items, and I imagine I'll start with the Italian combo. If it's at the level of their chicken parm, then I've no worries whatsoever. (Minor quibble: some Yelp pics showed that they stocked Herr's chips, but when I went, there were none to be found!) read more

I had a restaurant coupon that was $10 for only $2 so thought I would try it out to make sure it was not a scam and low and behold it was not. Huge savings. Tried this deli out and the variety of sandwiches was very nice with different combinations not usually seen as options. Very small eat in area with 1 high top table and a counter against an outside window with 5 stools. Obviously most of their business is take out. Kitchen area and prep area visible from the order counter and area looks clean and well maintained. Staff are very courteous and attentive. Food comes out within 5-10 minutes and was piping hot that you had to let it cool a little so you did not get burned. I had the Asiago cutlet which was chicken with Asiago cheese and spinach on your choice of bread which I got the ciabatta roll which was delicious but could only eat half as a really big sandwich. My son got the steak and cheese sub which again was super fresh, hot and too big for one meal. I would definitely go back and try another of their daily specials. read more

I needed something quick for lunch and decided to try this place on my way home. I had no preconceived notions, and I was ready for whatever. Well, color me pleasantly surprised. I had the buffalo chicken sub, and it was stupid delicious. The chicken was flavorful and generous. The sauce wasn't overwhelming nor wimpy with its spicy level. The blue cheese dressing tied everything together with its pungent fatty creaminess. This sandwich was one of the best I had all year! SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY. read more

Im not sure about the other reviews but The Corner Deli was great, made to order food, clean, efficient, fast, and everyone behind the counter took the time to remember my name ( I know it was on the order but still). The sandwiches are very healthy size portions, many drink options as well as chips and deserts. Just remember which way to enter the parking lot :) read more

Quick, convenient, & the workers are nice. I like how much space & seating their is on the inside. I have to admit the new location isn't as good as it was near the Miller Library as it may be a little difficult to get to & notice, but its worth it. Their buffalo chicken is to die for, & so are the chicken cutlets. Although I've never tried it, I've heard the steak & cheese is also bomb. I love how many options there are one the menu & the prices. read more

My friend placed a large order over the phone which included a #2 panini, they ended up making special number 2? So it was the completely wrong sandwich and they made us pay for the new one. The worker was rude and said it was all our fault. The panini we wanted was named #2. The sandwich was for a vegetarian and the one they gave us had chicken. It was ridiculous to have to pay $10 for a sandwich we did not order and can't even eat. The new sandwich was good but the overall situation was frustrating :( read more

What a wonderful place! I came in on a lunch hour, and it was fairly busy. Still, I got my order within 10 minutes, and it was amazing. II had the Keating wrap, which was chicken with walnuts, mandarin oranges, cheese, and more delicious things all in a Spinach wrap. All the other options looked delicious as well! Definitely worth a stop. And, if you're on a tight schedule, call ahead! read more

Stopped in for sandwiches to go a couple weeks ago for a Saturday lunch. Fresh potato and macaroni salads. Sandwiches made exactly how we ordered them. The place could use a bit of sprucing up and some updates, such as the un-illuminated soda refrigerators, etc. Wouldn't recommended sitting there to eat. But as far as the food goes, it's great! read more

Not that customer friendly but the food was okay and expensive. Probably give them one more chance

On my way out I over heard two dudes talking about how "they would never come back." As most of the sandwiches I purchased here have been pretty good, I was a liitle confused. After trying to eat my pastrami sandwich now I'm no longer confused. I ordered a grilled pastrami with onion mustard and American cheese. What liitle pastrami that was on the tasteless roll was tougher than shoe leather, the cheese was not melted and raw red onions go on salads NOT sandwiches. I will never patronize this once solid go to sandwiches joint again. IKES! read more
