Great local deli. Everything I’ve had there has always been very good. I’ve known Bobby a long time and works hard to carry on the family tradition and feed the people.Wait usually isn’t too long. Yes they are cash only. Funny seeing people be up in arms about that. They are upset paying an atm fee but ok with the banks screwing over a small business? People suck. Any halfway decent bank gives you back atm fees anyways. Many small delis and shops in my experience are cash only for this reason. They have to pay monthly, daily and transaction fees.

Mr. Italian sub around. Great homemade soup and chowder and chili. Great lunch entrées. Reasonable pricing.

This place is awesome! We've been coming here for years (a favorite to all my coworkers as well) ~ I assure you, the staff is not rude lol they are old school, hardworking fantastic cooks who serve fresh food & large portions. We order here at least once a week & have never had a complaint. Those complaining it's 'cash only' or 'I wanted this container not that container & she looked away when I was speaking' are the type of people who go through life finding something to complain about in everything (you know the type I'm talking about) - this is a deli, not the Osteria Francescana if you want a great, home cooked meal, without the cooking at home, give them a try. If you are looking for a $600 meal from waiters who will kiss your a$$ & serve your meal on a silver platter, keeping direct eye contact while singing Ti Amo, I suggest you get on a plane & fly to Italy

I placed a pickup order on grubhub and while it wasn’t bad… the hot chicken cutlet sub wasn’t really hot at all. The cutlet was, I assume, pre-made and refrigerated. Carrot cake okay at best

Has the best Italians in town!A classic deli that has been a chelmsford staple for decades. They serve subs, sandwiches, soups, and dinners. Indoor seating and take out.Also has cold cuts, bakery options, and more!Now open until 7pm on wed-friday.

Old school deli complete with memorabilia and a belief that sandwiches should be stuffed with meat. Im glad it’s cash only, that keeps the ‘convenience’ crowd away and gives the workin man room to eat lunch. The Mac salad is creamy just the way I like it, albeit on the bland side.

Absolutely love this place. Sandwiches are amazing and thy have so many options for other food, including a salad bar. Will be visiting for sure more often.
i pointed to the chicken broccoli and ziti to the rude woman behind the counter. She started to serve me from a different container and i said no not that one, this one. She said it was the same but didnt look the same,maybe it was but the one i wanted just looked fresher and who knows how long the other container was sitting there. The woman with the ugly attitude wouldn't serve me from the container i requested. Turned around and walked out, needless to say i will never go back, cant post a review without at least one star, lets just zero stars from me

First time trying and the food is amazing. At least the sandwich I tried. Corned beef special is a must try!

Just attempted to eat the sloppiest sandwich I have ever had in my life & I've had some sloppy ones! I could see if the cold cuts were fresh and it was just sloppy but the deli meat was of bad quality & was not fresh. They also dont accept any kind of cards, the older man in the front at the register told me I could use the ATM for a small fee of 1.75$. I had no choice since the subs were already made so I got some cash out. As I was handing him the cash he said "now that didn't hurt did it" to which I replied yes very much so seeing that you charged me & my bank will charge me as well. 2 sandwiches, 3 drinks, 1 bag of chips 30$. I don't mind paying for good food but this was NOT!!! Thank god o am just passing through town. Dont waste your time or $$.

I love a deli especially when it has a wide variety of freshly made sandwiches and even hot food to choose as well. I enjoyed my roast beef with slaw and Russian dressing. Looking forward to trying more soon!

Store was clean and well staffed.I had the meatloaf dinner. Meatloaf, Mashed, veg (green beans) and roll. It was... well.. bland. the meatloaf was mushy, the mashed potatoes tasted like nothing and the green beans were soft and mushy. Gravy was the greasy drippings from the meatloaf. Weird chunks included. There was a good amount of food... Loaded up with salt and pepper it was still boring. I also got a roll (2 slices of bread). The bread was good.I would give 3 stars for food. this is a deli serving hot food so I guess bland is expected. They have sandwiches and all kinds of other choices that look like fresh sliced. This place is CASH ONLY. They have signs all over the place. You can use their ATM at the front... after paying a fee of course. Frustrating to go somewhere that is such a dinosaur. The extra star subtraction is for that. There are plenty of other places in the plaza and nearby. Drive on.
