*Meatball sauce in the Eggplant ?The last 2 times I’ve gone in have been horrible. Today for lunch the 3 of us ordered our food, the young deli clerk forgot about our food for 25 minutes, apologized & handed 2 out of 3 of us our food while asking if the food less person wanted to place an order. We explained that the food was all ordered at the same time, she claimed she forgot, said she had a “Brain fart”*The main complaint is I don’t eat meat & can’t tolerate any meat sauce, I asked for an eggplant w/ marinara sauce…. No meat!!! I was hunched over immediately w/ stomach pains and when I asked I was told they take the meatball sauce & throw it on the eggplant! Lastly, I didn’t complain but pulled out a long black hair on my eggplant (I’m blonde) … just sad that our delis aren’t like they used to be. Sad that the only good food is the food we cook at home.

Sandwiches were okay. Not good, not bad, just okay. What’ll keep me from ever coming back are the prices. Over $12 and change for a sandwich on a grinder? Those are NY prices and this is nowhere near as good as a NY sandwich. They serve $8-$9 sandwiches at best. Workers were very friendly but no need to ever return. You’ll be better off hitting up one of the many bodegas in the neighborhood for a sandwich.

I always went to this wonderful Deli. I worked two doors down and lived diagonally across the street. As for the food I buy their imported pastas and their grinders. Especially roast beef with fried peppers on them which are absolutely amazing. They have great people skills are always Pleasant and ready to serve me with a smile every time I go there. I can't wait to go there for lunch this weekend. If you want a great lunch or sandwich this is the place to go. You won't regret it.

This one girl who works in the back. Her name is Cayla. Absolutely rude for absolutely no reason. I love the place and the food. Just needs more generous help cause a girl with an attitude like that should not be working in such a great place. I was a regular customer and I brought that place a lot of business thanks to Cayla those days are now behind me. Good luck.

For starters the workers get harassed by regular customers daily and the bosses encourage the workers to accept this treatment it is sickening and morally unjust. The way I see the owners treat there workers is outright disgusting and somebody needs to put this place in check!

Lena and her staff are amazing! Worked with them on a corporate lunch and dinner. Lena was on every delivery to ensure that things went smoothly. She was accommodating to changes and so easy to work with. Not to mention the food was fresh, hot and delicious. Highly recommend to support this local business. We look forward to using her in the future!

Wow!!!! What an incredible catering experience I had with Cavallo's and Lena's team! I work for United Airlines as an event planner and we had an event at a nearby airport and Cavallo's had exceptional service and food. We had about 140 people at our event and I would say most people came back up for seconds. I work at a lot of events and Lena was my favorite person to work with. Her prices are very fair and the quality you get, plus wonderful customer service is unmatched. I highly recommend you go with Cavallo's for all your catering needs, or the next place you choose for date night!
