I love this deli! The staff is all super welcoming and helpful. I’ve gotten two different sandwiches at the deli and both have been great.
Excellent deli. I ordered a pastrami on rye with mustard. Pastrami was moist and tasty. The bread was toasted to perfection. Ample parking.
Really great place. Reminds me of your classic upscale NY Deli. All the food taste fresh and you get a lot of bang for your buck.
Very clean gourmet restaurant and clean grocery store. Food here is great and they have plenty of seats for small parties. I need to come back and try the gelato
I ordered the chopped pork w/fries. Th sandwich was amazing (only issue the sauce was on the side, better if cooked in sauce). And they gave me a half a box of fries. To many fries not enough sandwich. But I will be back to get another sandwich.
Pastrami was really good. Pot pie was lacking tho - they only put the pie crust on top. It would be much better if it lined the entire dish
It’s cool… i like the items they sell as their general store. I ordered a bbq sauce pork sandwich and the issue is that… there was no bbq sauce…. In general the items are kinda expensive too but the general area is quite expensive so i don’t blame them. It’s cool to see a black run store though.
Delicious deli down near American Univ. Great menu for lunch (had a really good muffaletta), and their bakery and deli cases are amazing. Plus "happy hour" bakery discounts for students!
Simply aahhh-mazing ... it's been years since I've been there 🤔. However, the food is still savory & delicious 😋. The associates/workers are kind & very knowledgeable of the products they sell. The manager goes all out to help the customers and his employees. That place is a ver-ver-very buzzziiee place. The stuffed rotisserie chicken 🐔, soups 🍲 & the body by beets salad 🥗 ain't nutin' but the truth 🤗. Check it out.
