I took a picture of some of the menus (see photos). We did not get one but look at the photo of the crab cakes. Those things are huge and $5.99. If you look closely at the photo, you can see how the breading is peeling in one location and it is not heavily breaded! We got the grilled cheese, spicy nacho grilled cheese, and All American sandwich (see photos). The food is all really good and freshly prepared. Coffee was good also. Good option for quick bite.

Attended a workshop/conference at Columbia-Teachers College. The students recommended this Deli…read more I've now had lunch there three days in a row, and got dinner there twice. Everything I've eaten has been excellent. They are very friendly and fast and efficient with getting your order and getting you the right food. Their memories are pretty amazing. But also the portions are humongous, I have a big appetite, but I can only eat about half of whatever they've given me. I highly recommend.

When I went in, it seemed like a somewhat humble deli and I didn't expect they would have the ingredients to make a decent taco. I almost left, but decided to give it a try. I stood at the deli and the cashier immediately made sure I was being helped and called the cook over. I was pleasantly surprised with perfect, authentic mexican tacos that came with lime and sauces on the side. They were delicious, full and fresh and both the guy who made them and the lady cashier were very nice. Give this business a try, you will be glad you did. I am!

They have your usual hot and cold, sandwiches, salads, fruit juice and smoothies, etc. They have prepackaged foods like snacks/chips, chocolate, etc. They have random items like pet food and cleaning supplies. The standard fare for a bodega in New York. They don't have a bodega cat, which is surprising, given how big the rats are in the neighborhood. They are open 24/7, which is nice and convenient. Their service is pretty fast usually. It's definitely not as narrow and cramped as other bodegas. I mostly have gotten sandwiches. Their chopped cheese and Philly cheese steak sandwiches are good and are like what you usually get at a bodega. They even have a "real steak sandwich" that is a bit pricier than a chopped cheese or Philly cheese but is pretty good.

It's new, it's clean, and it's got most of the essentials you need between trips to a larger supermarket. And while some of the groceries are a little marked up when compared to grocery stores, the convenience of its product selection and proximity to the 145th station for the 1 train make up for it. I haven't tried any of the sandwiches or foods from the deli, but the menu is huge and there were a lot of tasty-looking options on display.

All around, this is a three star experience. The food is ok (some is poisonous), the service is…read morefine, and the atmosphere is pretty clean. We had ordered some chicken over rice, curly fries, and a protein smoothie. The restaurant proactively called us to inform us some ingredients of the protein smoothie we're out of stock and we were able to make a substitution quite easily. The curly fries are pretty good and well seasoned. It's definitely a frozen packaged item, but this restaurant cooks them very well. The chicken over rice is pretty decent but has some major issues. Nothing crazy to write home about, but it gets the job done in terms of the meat and rice. The giant issue comes with the tomatoes and lettuce. I believe it's the tomatoes, but eating them had an extremely strong chemical cleaner taste and smell. I believe this restaurant has not properly washed those vegetables, or they have gone extremely bad and are still being used. Whatever it is, it tasted like something that could be poisonous and harm you. I definitely recommend asking that they do not put any veggies in your bowl. Atmosphere is fine. They have a wide selection of anything you could need and it is all neatly organized.

That being said I've been here to #1 Columbia Deli a few times and mostly for the Cheese Burger Lunch Special, which was fairly good and also included a soda. My order was processed pretty quickly. The space itself is fairly clean and has an extensive inventory of items that you find a mini mart/deli type place. They have alcohol, chips, candy, ice cream, toilet paper, deli meats, etc. A whole variety of things. Although I haven't really shopped for any actual items there so I can't vouch for the pricing/value outside of the lunch special, which I think is a good deal.

This full service Deli is located righ across the street (168th) from New York Presbyterian…read moreHospital, and there are heaps of NYP/Columbia schools and offices nearby, so it's super convenient. Note, the entrance is a short flight of stairs up from the street level, so it does not appear to be Accessible. You'll find all kinds of snacks and drinks here, as well as a deli counter which offers sandwiches, wraps, and rice bowls. The biggest draw, however, and probably the most noteworthy feature, is the salad and warm bar. It's a prominent feature, and boasts a variety of offerings and cuisines, vegetarian and omnivore alike. The salad greens are fresh, adn the warm trays are attended and stirred regularly. I had a small cup full of vegetarian lo mein style noodles with some added vegetables on top. I was quite hungry, so why a small cup? Well, they offer two forms of to-go boxes, clear rigid polystyrene, and illegal EPS ("styrofoam") clamshells. Foam clamshells were outlawed in the State of New York in 2020, and this ban went into effect at in January 2022. Even if you don't care about the environment and the horrible consequences of EPS foam packaging and food serviceware, you should at least keep in mind that polystyrene is a KNOWN carcinogen. :-(

I tried this place out right after leaving my dental appointment at the teaching hospital across…read morethe street, and was surprised by the high quality of the salad bar -- the hot food was nicely prepared and the cold vegetables were well cut, fresh and crisp, and the cost was very reasonable. And the counter staff is very VERY nice. The place probably gets very crowded later in the morning (this was 10am) and that may be its one and only flaw -- it's not very large, and seating is limited, but then, it probably couldn't survive if it had a much larger space. I'll try to grab something at this place as often as I'm on 168th Street, but it's another reason to look forward to going up there.

Cute egg sandwich place. Loved the interior and design choices; it's very aesthetically pleasing…read more It's tiny inside and no bathroom (basically just a bench to sit on while you wait for your food), although there's an outdoor seating area, so it's best to grab and go. No phone orders either. It's about $9 for a sandwich, so not cheap, but there's lots of seasonal/combo promos and sales, and 10% off for paying in cash. They also sell Korean corndogs, katsu sandos, mochi donuts, and coffee/drinks. We got a pork sausage/cheese egg sandwich, and while I loved it (it's thick, fluffy, savory and very filling), it tasted basically like an elevated Egg McMuffin - no disrespect either since I consider it a compliment lol. Not the most spectacular food nor the best value, but it'll do in a pinch for a quick and tasty breakfast or lunch! I'd return whenever I'm hungry and in the area.

This is such a cute little cafe to grab a savory bite, sweet treat or refreshing bevy!…read more I was in the mood for matcha and saw that I was nearby. I was also hungry after traveling all day, but found myself in that awkward time period where I just needed something to hold me over until dinner. Korean-style corn dogs are sometimes a little to heavy for me to fully enjoy, but they're still just so tempting that I had to buy one since it had been awhile. The iced matcha latte I ordered came out quickly but the corn dog probably took about 10-15 minutes. I ordered a half cheese and half sausage, totally forgetting that most of these corndogs that would mean that the top is cheese and the bottom is sausage. (I enjoyed the cheese half the most!) My matcha latte was good but nothing outside of what I expected - overall I enjoyed it. Would I come out of my way to drop by hear again? Not so sure, but if I'm in the neighborhood I would definitely (and next time I'm coming for one of their egg sandwiches!)
