The best sub and sandwich place to eat on the planet! Filling my stomach and eating here and the other two locations for over 20 years. Fantastic subs. Absolutely amazing the deli sub. A must place to stop and have some great sub sandwiches. The deli sub is the best one!

Good place always hear good reviews. Sandwiches are very large and tasty. Fresh ingredients. Definitely very expensive but a good treat every once and a while. Give it a try.

The owner is hard to get a smile from but he does a great job making a sandwich. Although the 12 inch can get to $12-$15, it typically can be made into 2 meals so it's a fair price in my opinion.Vegetarian options: Tuna, egg salad, veggie, pasta saladParking: Wheel chair accessible, flat parkingWheelchair accessibility: Curb access right outside of store, clean and clear sidewalks, no electric door but plenty of traffic to help

We started a post about who has the best Italian sub. My wife and I walk in and all I ask for is his best Italian sub with the only instructions from me being no mayonnaise and don't heat it up. It was very very good! If we lived closer I would probably stop in weekly!!

Classic deli experience, no frills, just delicious food and good portions.The sub I got was too delicious to eat half and save half for later, so now I'm stuffed and tired.Don't eat a full sub if you need to be productive.

The owner is super cool. Chatted with him and seems like a solid family guy. That story aside, I think he said they import their products, in my opinion the pepperoni and hot sauce selection are the best in the area!

This is the absolute best deli. The sandwiches are always delicious, generous and made with good ingredients. The bread is local-made, and definitely great for sandwiches. The employees are welcoming, and the small selection of groceries is a nice bonus.

I really enjoy this spot! My boyfriend and I aren't huge sandwich eaters but we definitely go here often now! I usually get the same Italian madness sandwich. He typically tries new things and his favorites are the Mad Italian and the Brooklyn steamer. Be said the salty pig is super goooood too! They are very quick at making sandwiches. There's hardly any seats inside, because it's a small spot. They have like two tables. They don't have any outside seating. The Sammie's are HUGE! And filled, still not super NY style meat cuts but really good.

I'm all for a great sub/hero/grinder...whatever you want to call it and I'm also all for small businesses especially since covid times...but...I must go with 3 stars based on our steak and cheese order. I was pretty disappointed when the guy pulled some precooked steak and plopped it into the microwave for a few minutes. I almost wanted to change my mind but didn't follow thru. As you can imagine, a microwaved steak and cheese is no replacement for a freshly grilled one. Also ordered the New Yorker...and it was OK. You can get a similar one at Santinis down the street at a much lower cost. Each sub was $16+ so you are dropping close to $40 on 2 subs. I'm sure The Deli has its devotees but based on this last experience I can't get to 4 stars.

Cannot recommend this place enough. My girlfriend and I had seen this place a handful of times when visiting the ramen place next door. We finally had a craving for a good sandwich and decided to give this place a shot. We are happy we did. The food here is amazing! The sandwiches are loaded for the money. They are a little pricier at $13 on average but it's worth it in my opinion. I got the New York Steamer the first time and my girlfriend got the spicy Italian. The second time I got the mad Italian and she got the spicy Italian again. It was worth the money and the trip back. The sandwiches here are so flavorful and full of toppings so it beats all the other guys. They also have really good chips as well. All the flavors we've tried so far have been delicious. The service here is always prompt and friendly. They have a couple of people working at all times so you should be in and out pretty quick. The ambiance is cool because of all the football stuff the owner has in the back wall. I love all the Redskins/Commanders memorabilia. It makes it feel like a homey spot. Cannot recommend this place enough. I'm so glad we walked by here one day and noticed it.
