John’s Deli is a Brooklyn institution and provides so much history, it was a pleasure to dine here and try the Roast Beef Sandwich. The most surprising thing was that, despite its size and huge slices of beef, it was very light and was complimented very well by the onions and gravy. The beef was soft and easy to eat.
This place gets a 5 star from me for the overall story!
I travelled all the way from Ireland via the Bronx to try the Johnnie roast beef sandwich and it lived up to the hype. Great atmosphere in the neighbourhood, friendly staff, great service and Awesome food! It's easy to get to just take the D train to coney island and get off at 25th Avenue. John's is across the street just down the road from the station. 10 out of 10. 100% recommend.
Italian deli that serves all the classics. Get the Johnny Roastbeef sandwich. You won’t be disappointed.
Stopped in here when a friend recommended it. They have a huge menu with lots of delicious options. Wish I could have tried everything. I got the Tony Montana and the ham and cheese rice ball. The sandwich was delicious and it was huge. I got the 9 inch hero and it was huge. I can only imagine what the 16 inch hero was. Definitely worth the price and delicious flavor. I do wish they did put less gravy on the hero overall, because it can be messy but I enjoyed it none the less. Also the rice ball was awesome and one of the best I have had
Great place in Brooklyn to grab breakfast, lunch and even dinner, They are open til 10pm. Great selection of sandwiches, heros, and food. The service is impeccable, and everyone is friendly and helpful. The place is very clean so love to see that and place has some dope pictures. Recommend 100%
I was craving some pastrami and I was nearby. This is the Ari Gold, it has pastrami, melted Swiss cheese and brown mustard. The bread was crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. This is my second time here but definitely coming back every time I have the chance.
I got there around 430pm on a Thursday and it was empty but when I left there was a line formed. They make the sandwiches on the fly so it takes some 10-15 minutes per order, depending on how big of a party you’re with.
Gravy. Is. To. Die. For. Roast beef sandwich... Mozzarella Carrozza... Lester Diamond sandwich... I can't with this place! It's amazing. I just moved back to Brooklyn last year and hadn't had John's Deli in over 20 years so coming back was a dream for my senses. They are NOT stingy with meat here. The gravy is so decadent I order an extra on the side to use on my dinners. I'm not going to lie to you people .. I've also finished it off like it was soup a few times.
I had the Italian ice (meatbal&chicken Parmesan hero) that was a monster of a sandwich, it took me 2 days to eat. I recommend this sandwich if you are hungry.
My spouse had the Johnny roast beef and boy I must say the meat melts in your mouth. Definitely order a side cup of gravy and you will thank me for that info. They have a large variety of sandwichs so I can't wait to go back and try a different one. The rice ball and potato crochet was delicious as well
It's a quaint little place loved the vibe plus the roast beef hero is to die for, do get the honey mustard to add kick to your sandwich
Food was quick and good! Shared sandwiches with my coworker
I can’t say enough about Ari and the staff at John’s Deli. They catered a party for us for 80 people and everything we ordered was delicious. We even had some special requests which were prepared exactly as we requested. Everyone who attended raved about it all afternoon and can’t wait until we can do it again. Thank you to everyone at John’s Deli for providing great food and excellent service.
Not the same place it was years ago but it’s still John’s Deli. So you gotta give a 5 star review just for the name.
Nice little deli... With big flavor 😋
