Pastrami Ruben was pretty good. Sauerkraut nice good toasted sourdough bread lots of pastrami, meat and gooey cheese. Needed a little more thousand island dressing and or mustard. They have other pastrami combinations one with pesto and a cold one with cheese.

Great local market with excellent selections. Deli is top notch too, portion is solid and sides/chips selection is great. Highly recommend it over Seabright deli.

Sandwhich’s they make are pretty big. I cant eat a big one. So I decided to get the premade turkey sandwhich instead. The gentlemen making the sandwhichs had just made them fresh. It was made the way I like a sandwhich. Fresh ingredients, and I live that it is not drowning in mayo. The staff is friendly and helpful in making a good choice in the deli. You can place your deli sandwhich order with the order form at deli counter, which is located on the left side in the back.

The classiest, most thoughtful and kind service you can imagine. We planned to grab a bite, everything looked so delicious but instead, we ended up having a very sensitive family chat in the parking lot. The staff noticed the moment and brought us beautiful looking and refreshing fruit. This random act of kindness during a difficult moment made us fall in love with this wonderful market. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

We were in the neighborhood and stopped by randomly. And were completely blown away by the wonderful sandwiches hand crafted just how we wanted them!! All the employees were super cool, the store itself was well stocked and and we'll definitely be going back...

After having a hard day, I walked into the market and got 2 drink and an ice cream. My friend was in there and so I put one of the drinks on the ground for a moment and the cashier started to yell at me from about 20 feet away. Ask me to put it back. He did not ask me politely. And when I went up to check out. I apologized and told him I had awful day and I was setting the drink down to talk to my friend and he just looked at me and scoffed. I will never go back to the market. If you see a larger Middle aged white gentleman with xurly hair working on Monday days- stay away from that guy.

Perfect sando and even better vibes!Surprisingly been here for 5 years and never have this place a shot. I will definitely be coming back more often. They did not jip you on the ingredients or the price. Super friendly staff and conveniently located.

MENU AND FOOD: This delicatessen offers a selection of hot and cold sandwiches. SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE: Service was unfriendly. Their indoor decor is plain and simple. Located inside a convenience store, they do have not seating. PARKING: They have a small parking lot. IMPRESSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: We had their Turkey Avo and IMB Club, both of which were nothing special. Upon arrival, we filled out the order form and were stared at and told awkwardly to just set down the form on the counter. As we waited, the customer after us did the same, but moments later asked for his sandwich to be cold instead of hot. The employee responded unenthusiastically with "it's a bit late for that," despite not even having started on his sandwich. The employee later acknowledged the sandwich the fact and said he could make a note of that change. A following customer came in and noted there were no more order forms. The employee stated that they are out of order forms and that "[they've] been busy all morning" with a pause. The customer slowly responded by saying she could write her order down instead and the employee said "we really need you to use the order form" with another pause. Eventually, the employee responded with "give us a few minutes and we'll print out more forms." The customer felt the need to apologize for the apparent inconvenience, to which the employee said "it's not your fault." Overall, with the sandwiches being nothing out of the ordinary, combined with the unwelcoming service provided to us and other customers, we won't be back.
