Rosa's Deli has been my favorite place to grab a sandwich for as long as I can remember. Today, I ordered their classic American Combo sandwich without tomato. However, when I opened the sandwich, I was disappointed with the lack of deli meats and cheese in it. One side of my sandwich literally had three slices of deli meat. It’s disappointing, especially considering that the sandwich costs $7.99. Back in the day, when the sandwich was only $3.50, it was PACKED and the best deal in town. I understand that business costs have gone up, but the quality of the food should not decrease if we are expected to pay more.

Best subs in town all the food is fresh and delicious. All the employees are friendly and courteous . Rosa's has been in business for 30 plus years and that says it all.

Don’t get me wrong, the service is fast however since moving away and revisiting, the food quality has definitely declined. The steak in the sandwiches are dry, the only moist part of my steak and cheese was the parts that had mayo and cheese. The other sandwich that I ordered with lettuce and tomato was only good because of the lettuce and tomato. It is really unfortunate that a deli like this used to be so amazing that people from New Haven would go to Wallingford just for it. Thanks but no thanks

Great staff. Great food. Love this lil spot! Quick and inexpensive.
I went here for lunch for the first time . I have always wanted to go but I have never been in the area for lunch time . It's a very cute Italian deli for take out. I ordered the eggplant parmesan and added fried peppers on a hard roll. This was amazing! Most places do not make eggplant right however, the sandwich was excellent. It was thin enough and enough breading and the sauce tasted great as well. I would definitely come back just for the eggplant. I also ordered the #6 fresh mozzarella with tomato and roasted peppers, pesto, balsamic and I added pickled eggplant. This tasted great as well. I got my husband a fried breaded flounder grinder. it comes with lettuce, tomato cheese and tartar sauce. He doesn't like tartar sauce, so I had mayo on it instead. He stated that the fish was fresh and tasted good however, it didn't have much flavor. He felt that he would want flavor in the breading in order to order it again. Overall, very happy with the lunch order and definitely would go back..

Great Italian home style cooking, like the way they eat at their home❗
I used to LOVE this place for one thing: vegan vegetable soup. Called today and they don’t even make it anymore… What the hell? Why can’t you make it and just toss some slaughtered animals in it for people???♀️Plenty of other local places offer vegan items, so that’s where I’ll go now. ?Rosa’s deli -I apologize if I missed hearing that you discontinue the vegan vegetable soup only during the summer! I thought I was told it’s not made anymore, that’s what made me sad. When you begin making it again I’ll be in to get a quart & continue to rave about it to everyone I know!! Again, sorry for the poor review!

With this heat I just didn’t feel like cooking so I stopped off at Rosa’s and ordered an Italian sub and an All American sub, both were absolutely delicious to the last bite!

I have been coming to this place since I was a kid. Back in those days the American combo was only $1.25 . They have the best grinders.
