I started going to Jim's in the early 90's. This would be the spot I would hit with Uniondale…read morenatives Leaders of the New School before hitting Chung King Studio in NYC to be deafened by Busta Rhymes turning those 15 inch studio speakers up to 10 . My go to was the hot pastrami on a hero. I didn't think it was a better sandwich in the world. As the years went on, I still visited this deli. It always was a familiar neighborhood staple. It even kept the same aesthetic. What was super impressive is they knew the regulars by name and what they wanted to order. All you had to do was show up. I visited today and was hit with a whole new Jim's. The old cash register on the left is now a hot food station. Said cash registers now on the right with an LCD readout. There is a coffee station in the middle of the floor. Chairs and walking space occupied this space prior. This now places a wall in the middle of the floor. Although it disrupts the Feng shui, clearly a functional because there's a lot of coffee options. That goes great with the bagel and pastry selections that have been added as well. They have seem to expanded those pastry options. As well as added fresh bagels at 12 for 9 dollars The worker that helped me today was very attentive and a Uniondale native as well. The new owners kept some familiar elements like the extensive custom sandwiches brightly displayed on LCD screens. But a lot of it has changed and the new owners definitely made it their own. It's nice to be greeted with a bright and clean establishment that sells food. That is one of the things I look for. I will definitely visit again and see it It lives up to that Jim's legacy

A "real" NY Deli- a mainstay!…read more The owner George has been here for 40 years. He and his great team of Ryan( taking over as George is retiring) and Scott know 98 percent of their customer's names. The energy in Jim's is off the charts. Loved meeting George and Ryan on Wednesday and then hanging out with Scott ( also a Phys Ed & Health teacher) on Thursday. They made me feel like a 100 million bucks. Thank you for a beautiful scrambled eggs n cheese on a poppy roll breakfast sandwich with spk on Wednesday. Grateful for the lovely sunny side up and over easy eggs on Thursday. Love the awesome and fun menu and the fact that you can get a turkey sandwich or anything at 5:30 am when they open. Absolutely a fun and only happens in NY experience to see the banter and the interaction between the 3 gents and all the customers. They know everyone's name. Not just Cheers, it's Jim's. Love the energy, the vibe, the warmth in the air and how they serve everyone and make us feel. You leave full, very content and very happy. I certainly did and can't wait to return and get more of this.

House of Heros totally lives up to the hype. We were super excited to try their sandwiches (well,…read morein our case wraps because of a corn allergy), and it definitely did not disappoint!!! The Godzilla (crispy pork, cabbage/carrot slaw, with tonkatsu sauce) was packed with thin slices of perfectly fried pork. The tonkotsu sauce was slightly sweet and tangy, and the carrot and cabbage slaw was very complementary to the plethora of pork. The only change I would make next time is perhaps adding some onions (personal preference) and ask for some extra sauce. The Crispy Cuban was also fantastic spin to the classic. Again, packed with crispy pork, the sandwich was then filled with the perfect amount of ham, melty Swiss, and mustard. Nothing felt heavy. I wish I had seen the list of sides before we ordered. The homemade tater tots look amazing. Before we left, my boyfriend and I grabbed a menu and have decided to check off each one we order every week go. You can bet we will be returning soon!

I found out about Karina's Deli from a friend of a friend who told me that he likes the food there…read more I live close by so I decided to try it last month. The place is on Maple Ave and close to the Westbury LIRR. When you walk in you see a bunch of different hot foods chilling there looking tasty. I got a large container ($7) and asked for yellow rice, plantains, and pork (I think it's pernil, but I could be wrong - see the pictures). With tax it came out to $7.60. I paid with credit card and left. I got home and started eating. Wow, it was amazing. First off, they packed a dump load of food in the container, which I really appreciated. The pork wasn't ultra soft, but felt apart decently well. It tasted so good and had some sort of crazy glaze to it that was so tasty. The pork is just crazy good; end of story. The rice and plantains were also ultra satisfying too. Nothing much to really describe but it complimented the pork about as well as possible. Hopefully I have consistently great experiences when I go back in the future. For now I think this is 5 star status for sure. My meal was immensely satisfying and the value is unbeatable. Punta Cana on Post Ave has amazing ratings that are well deserved, but I think this place might be better. Guess we'll see based on future visits.

Yes the workers are polite but on my 1st visit I find a womans hair in my plate which was drowning in sauce which I did not request (hate wet rice). Not to mention the cooks & staff are all Hondurian. That disqualifies yourself from calling it a Dominican restaurant, especially if your food doesn't deliver. Bettter of hitting Punta Cana DR Grill, for $1 more you get better tasting Dominican food!

I think this place just became one of my favorite delis on long island. I travel all over long…read moreisland for work so I stop at a lot of delis. I have now been here 3 times and every time have had one of the best sandwiches ever. The food is so fresh, but more importantly the bread has been fresh every time. So many delis serve hard bread that has been sitting out all day. Not this place. Bread is always soft. I will be coming back very often. I can't believe the other reviews ratings, but they are older reviews so maybe the place has changed.

Best deli on Long Island!…read more This places has everything pizza,salads,sandwich's,burgers,etc. everything they sell is fresh made which is always great! You can't go wrong with this choice tons of options to choose from. My only complaint is most of the counter people are rude ...which talking to other customers in there is one of the reasons people are ordering pickup or going somewhere else. I can confirm they are not very nice

WARNING: Extremely disappointing and potentially unsafe experience…read more I rarely leave reviews like this, but people need to be aware of what I experienced at this deli. I bought the cocktail shrimp ($12 for half a pound) and was shocked. The shrimp had a greenish discoloration on the sides, was extremely stringy, and had an off smell. It did NOT look or taste fresh and honestly raised serious concerns about quality and storage. When bringing it to the attention of the cashier she replied "Ella no quiere". Bringing it to another person attention "what happened" Ella no quiere again. It's not that I don't want it. It was disgusting they were selling green shrimp. The gentleman at the counter was very sweet, but even if he gave me a fresh one, it would've been from the same green, stringy batch regardless. They should absolutely not be serving this especially on the Fourth of July. I also tried the lobster salad ($22 for a small half pound), which was basically mayonnaise with corn and celery and only a few tiny pieces of lobster. nowhere near worth the price. The chicken salad ($12.99) was even worse. It was oily, unappetizing, and looked like it had been sitting out for a long time. Easily the worst chicken salad I've ever had. Look at that oil! Overall, everything I purchased felt low quality and questionable in freshness. I was genuinely disgusted and surprised a place like this would sell products in this condition. I would strongly caution others before buying seafood or prepared foods here. I will not be returning.
