This is my local deli! Quality and portion size for the price makes this easily my favorite sandwich spot/choice in the area. The people that work there are also super friendly. My faves are the ‘Big Dan’ and ‘Cajun Ruben’!

The most delicious fresh made sandwiches you can get! Such a good meal! I suggest getting a sandwhich and a side. The soups are hot and the other sides are tasty as well! Big portions!

The sandwiches and salads are pretty good here. I can't give more than 3 stars because it's impossible for a working person to eat here. I often think about ordering but it's always closed by the time I could actually get there.

Worked in oakmont for 7 years. VERY bummed I just found out about this place! Soups and sandwiches are great. Lunch or dinner Togo for sure. Staff and owner are very personable as well.

This is a great deli in the area. Prices are good, considering the location, and they have all you could expect from a deli.I happened to grab the BBQ wrap for lunch while in the area, and my wife got a build-your-own sandwich. The wrap and simple sandwich were great.

There are times when I really want to love a place. This was one of those times. Close by, in my adopted home town and sounding like the kind of place I owned many years ago.I will admit that it was a bit of a struggle getting in, since there is a step up to get to the door, and I'm in a power chair. Still, I made it, although it took some navigating inside, since the traffic pattern is kind of narrow. I looked for some ambience, but there was none to speak of.There are a few small tables inside and out, and a long counter that doesn't seem to have any structure. You order at one end, are given a number and you go to the other end to wait for that number to be called. There is no salesmanship to speak of.I'm always looking for that extra level of customer service.You are on your own here. There are a few menus taped up and a few signs, but the placement and spacing of these leave a lot to be desired. It is as though they expect that you've been there before and know exactly what they're all about.I ordered a sandwich and was asked if I wanted anything else, with no suggestions. The salads were away from the sandwich menus and it wasn't until I arrived back at the front that I noticed that they had soups listed. I'm not sure if they have drinks available.I don't recall seeing any and none were offered. There really isn't much in the way of atmosphere. It felt like a cold, dispassionate place. There was no music and little if any chatter you normally find in a place such as this.I saw a passion of mine listed as a soup. I have fond memories of stuffed cabbage, since it was a dish that my mother and grandmother made in large pots at least monthly. When I saw it on the menu as a soup, I will admit I had high hopes and expectations.In a place like this, I would expect soups to be made daily, on premises. That was not the case here.The girl behind the counter stuck a thermometer in what looked like a large crock pot and came back to tell me that it wasn't ready. I will admit that this baffled me, since it was 11:30, and you would think they'd be prepared for a lunch. She gave me a small amount to try, mainly to see if the temperature was acceptable.It wasn't.It was cold and not nearly at a serving level. That made me think 2 things. 1st, that the soups aren't made daily on site, since it would have been hot coming out, and 2nd, that it had been made sometime well before and had been refrigerated or frozen.Then again, it could be that it wasn't really a special or soup of the day and could have been a prepackaged product. I declined to purchase any and spit the cold taste back into my bowl. It could have been a great product, but I would never know.My sandwich was good enough to give them a few stars, but not on the level of exceptional. I will admit that it was good, it just wasn't great. The meatball comes on an acceptable bun, with a pretty good tomato sauce and provolone cheese, although it was a shredded cheese and not a sliced cheese as I would have expected from a deli.The seasoning was good in the meatball and I have to give them high marks for that. I think it would have been better if the bun had been toasted or grilled, so it wouldn't have gone soggy as quickly. There were 4 large meatballs inside and I felt that it was well worth the price.If I had a suggestion, it would be a better atmosphere and a better trained staff. I was hungry and would certainly have tried other things if they had been offered. Even the cheapest fast food places ask if you want fries with that.They have some salads and possibly other items that just didn't register with me. I'm typically pretty observant, especially since I do a number of reviews in several forums. I have to say I wasn't impressed.It is hard to rate a place as boring, but that is the best description for this place. As a quick sandwich place for take out, I think it is acceptable. I couldn't see myself spending a minute longer there than I needed to.They could and should do be

This place is awesome to stop for food or deli needs. For one the prices are amazing, for a place in Oakmont you wound expect to pay more but not only is the place cheap for Oakmont it's cheap in general.You can order any kid of sandwich you want or you can select from a list of premade sandwich ideas. The sandwiches are made fresh from the deli and are wrapped perfectly for on the go. The included a pickle spear as well.The soup I got which was the chicken and rice and it was the best I have ever had (sorry mom). The sandwich I ordered also ranks in the top of sandwiches I have ever had.Parking is plentiful around the deli and they have two tables outside in front of the store and a few inside. The place got super packed shortly after we arrived and I can see why.I highly recommend this deli and as I live in Oakmont I will be making frequent stops here.

I found Waldo and I e hell of a good sandwich at Oakmont Deli. If you like a quality sandwich piled high on good bread, with a killer pickle on the side. Then this is your spot in Oakmont.
