    I love going to Wagshal's for my late lunch/ early dinner break. Sure the sandwiches are a bit on the pricier side, like $16 for tuna melt. And it was very crunchy due to over abundance of celery that gave it a rather astringent taste. BUT, the service is friendly, and the turnaround time was great! I loved the steak and cheese sandwich I got a few days ago using DoorDash and can't wait to try other items they offer. Their cake displays were incredible looking too. And the empanadas. Oh I better stop!

    Italian sandwich

    They keep expanding their offerings and increasing prices, yet so much of it is absolute crap. Been going here for 30 years. It's a sad state of affairs. I still go in for about 4 different things, knowing I'll pay too much, but that I'll like it. Anytime I try something new, or something I haven't had from them in a while, it's a total failure. $16 for an Italian sub? Fine, but better be good. Or at least edible. Yet, they included brown/grey salami on it. Major sign of epic managerial failure. They need to wake the f up, or they'll be burnt toast just like too many of their breakfast sandwhiches. I'm not giving up on them, but I'll be damned before I watch this place continue to spiral downhill without my adding my two cents.

    Pitiful Ruben

    I wish I'd come here first to read the recent reviews. This is not the deli I used to stop in for sandwiches as a local undergrad. To be fair, it was more than 20 years ago - but that does not negate how awful it was today. My Ruben was lackluster at best. For $17 I expected the meat portion to reflect that price point. It did not. Then to top it off, the corned beef itself was just ok and there was waaaay too much sauerkraut for the amount of meat on the bread, throwing the sandwich proportions all Off. Just a really overall underwhelming sandwich. Very disappointing as I was looking forward to stopping in while I was in the area.

    Hard and crunchy fries @6.05, not a deal.
    Mia R.

    I went and order fries and ask to cook them soft, not crunchy. When I received them and went back to work (only 2 minute walk), the fries we hard and very crunchy. This is the second review I have wrote about different issues at this place. And they charge 6.05 for the fries, my co-worker tried them and spit them out. I would say do better, but when you have the conversation first about your food and they still make it wrong. #nevergoingback

    Tomato & Cucumber Salad 1/2 Pint
    Linda V.

    Been here before sort of a hit or miss with the prepared foods but I got the chicken empanada and the cucumber tomato salad with a side of pita chips. The empanada wasn't really good more on the doughy side and the flavor was eeehhh. The cucumber salad was good although the empanada wasn't great it complemented well with the salad. I know they have much more things to choose from and items I have yet to try.

    Deli counter

    Gourmet deli and market with a sandwich bar and decent wine selection in the Spring Valley Shopping Center. There are a few tables outside as well as a nice enclosed dining space in the back. It is our neighborhood go-to for breakfast and lunch sandwiches, prepared deli treats, and last-minute wine or appetizer purchases for easy entertaining. I much prefer the ambiance of this location to the one on New Mexico Ave. It has a comforting, neighborhood feel. The prices are certainly on the high side, but the selection is pretty upscale and it's not outside what you would expect for the area. Service can be mixed, but all in all I've had a positive experience with staff going out of their way to help out. My only complaint would be the organization of the store, which can make it confusing to know where to pick up and pay for things. For example, you can order sandwiches and pay at the counter across from the sandwich bar, but if your order includes a deli item you have to separately bring your paper order receipt over to the deli for them to know to prepare your item and then pay for your order at the deli counter (but don't forget to go back to the sandwich counter to pick up your sandwich). I think it's exacerbated by the arrows on the floor which indicate the direction of traffic (as a COVID precaution) but can be tricky to navigate in a small space. However, I appreciate the efforts made to help customers keep 6 feet apart so that's not something I mind. I also appreciate the easy curbside pick up they are offering right now. This review is mostly for the deli side. The market is in a separate space a few doors down. I haven't been frequently enough to review it, but have friends who come from outside the neighborhood to its butcher counter. It seems quite the institution.

I have watched them build this from scratch and have passed by it on my way to sangamore safeway many, many, many times. My husband and I finally, for the first time decided to stopped by and give this place a try and it was the best decision we had ever made!! Their food and they're barbecue, is just out of this world. You can taste the amazing taste of all their BBQ options and how much love and effort these people put behind their barbecue. But it's not just the way they cook their BBQ, it's the way they go about making their Barbecue. It's the fine details of cooking, preparering and craftsmanship of their barbecue that speaks volumes. From the juiciness that seep out, when you first look at the meat and how the barbecue looks, to the slow heating process and how the juices run off and the meat falls off the bone, to the coloration of their BBQ meats and the smell that the Barbecue gives out, making you excited with eager anticipation of waiting for that first bit, to the final conclusion of everything coming together when you put your mouth to the very fist bite! Then how everything blends perfectly together, as if fireworks of flavor just went off in your mouth after you finally sit down and get to enjoy what you have been waiting for. The staff is super friendly, The environment is fun and peaceful, yet outgoing. They have outdoor and indoor seating, wonderful to have as the weather changes and because my husband and I tried the barbecue for the first time, the cook behind this amazing barbecue, gave us a free side order of their brisket, which i've never had until I came to this place. We also ended up ordering burnt ends on a roll and fried chicken gizzards which pairs wonderful with their own selection of Draft beers. They have an inside deli, selection of delicious deli meats, cheeses, sandwiches, chips, and so much more. They also have an arrangements of other foods and side dishes as well, if your wanting something small. You can also get amazing variety of desserts that they offer and I highly recommend. Honestly, if you haven't tried this location for their barbecue, you are definitely missing out. And if you're like me constantly passing by this place, don't wait another second. I've been to many wagshal's locations and by far this is our go to spot. This location will forever be our Top number one. We can't wait to go back when the weather starts getting a little warmer to fully sit outside and enjoy some more amazing barbecue. Many, many thanks to the staff and the head barbecue chef that makes this all possible. 10 stars from my husband and myself.

Wagshal's is located on Massachusetts Ave, on a strip mall with ample parking. There are two separate spaces here with a CVS in the middle: one has a world-class butcher and the other has wines, some groceries and loads of amazing baked goods and deli offerings. My favorite? The pork empanadas!

While some items, especially the ready-to-cook meals, are on the pricier side, you can still find great deals with their private-label products. I really enjoyed the alcohol selection. They carry everything from casual everyday wines to reasonably priced bottles that are actually quite good. The section is well organized, which makes it easy to browse. They also have hard liquor and beer, so most people will be able to find what they are looking for. Another big plus is the number of self-checkout stations, so I did not have to wait in line. The parking lot can be a bit confusing and chaotic depending on the time of day, so keep that in mind. Do not forget to get your parking validated before leaving the store.

Folks working there engage with customers and ask if you need anything. Very well organized and nice layout. They sell actual booze, like vodka, tequila. Not in VA, lol. Only problem, if you misplaced your parking pass, which is free for first 2 hours, then you gotta pay. I could not find my ticket to validate, so I had to pay. Sucks. In VA, you can park all day. I used to go to Wegmans after work, get a meal and study for hours. Not here. Gotta pay to park. I think they ought to revise the parking situation.
