I have known of this place for years……why did we wait so long to experience this awesome and tasty place? We ordered a Monte Cristo sandwich $13.25, a Turkey Chef Salad $14 and a slice of Hummingbird Cake $8.50. The sandwich is the size of two sandwiches. I ate 1/4 and I am taking the rest home….it’s huge. This is THE Tastiest sandwich I remember eating. Even though the menu is huge, it will be difficult fir me to think about ordering another kind. The salad was a good dice and so fresh and tasty. We’ve never had Hummingbird Cake before and the best way I can describe it’s majesty is that it’s like a super moist and nutty banana bread with pineapple and a nice and not extremely sweet Cream cheese icing.The staff are all very nice and helpful.I never comment on restrooms because there is never anything remarkable to share….not the case here. Restrooms are multiple and unisex. Each one is a room unto itself. All seem to be handicap accessible and feature changing tables. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this wonderful restaurant and we cannot wait to return.

I read the rave reviews about the cakes (carrot, princess, and Alpine) and assumed they would be good. We've been there twice now and we tried some cookies, a seven layer bar, and the rum cake the first time. The second time we got carrot cake, the princess Hawaiian cake, and the rum cake. The first day we tasted everything fresh. The carrot cake was unremarkable, the princess cake was good (reminded me of pineapple upside down cake with cream cheese frosting), and the rum cake was amazing. We ended up having leftovers and didn't get back to them for a few days. Upon finishing them, the princess cake didn't hold up and was not very good. The carrot cake was delicious as by its nature it usually tastes better with sitting refrigerated a few days. And the rum cake as always was ?.If you can only afford one thing, choose the rum cake. It's a dense bundt cake that's like pound cake with a slight rum flavor and chopped nuts as a garnish. I don't generally like pound cake but this is so rich and delightful.In my opinion, nothing else was really worth the price except that and the carrot cake if you can afford to refrigerate it a few days first. If I go back I plan on only getting rum cake, which is sad because I love sampling baked goods.

It's disappointing that I have to post a pooor food review on one of my favorite deli. My friend and I have made a tradition to get my birthday lunch from Wrights Gourmet. It's was birthday up coming weekendI called in our order for pickup. A grilled club sandwich with a side of avocado and my friend ordered a grilled cuban. We order a slice of strawberry cake and cup cake, chocolate peanut butter cup cake and 2 soft drink. Both sandwiches wasn't the usual quality of the WGD. The meat was very skimpy and mines was mushy. We both agreed that we could have put all the meat on half of the the bread and dispose the rest of bread. The chocolate cup cake didn't taste fresh and moist. I have to say in all the years I have been patronizing the business I have never had poorly quality of food. The strawberry dessert was delicious and it was both of us first time trying the strawberry dessert.

We just got cupcakes & cake slices here that day and they were delicious as always. I should’ve gotten the Club or Cuban while I was there but I didn’t and I regret it. Next time for sure.

I hosted a women conference at wright’s and they treated us with so much care; with it being such a busy environment it didn’t even seem like it by the attentiveness that they gave us. The staff was so respectful and sincere.Great place to bring people together.

Love the Turkey Reuben, add bacon! FYI to management, your menu on Google is off - I attempted to order a slice of coconut cream pie on pi day and was told you only sell pies on Thanksgiving and Christmas and that “whatever menu you’re looking at is old”. May want to adjust that :)

I had the beef martini sandwich. Wow. Delicious. I would’ve liked a more sturdy bread, but the taste was on point.
