When a deli gets slammed at lunch time you know it's gonna be đ„. Every person I saw walk out of here had at least 2-4 sandwiches in their hands. Just a Heads up, smaller deli layout with standing room only. They do offer a pick up cubby, so call ahead if time is important as it does get very busy.
Got the Sleeping Giant. the steak, pastrami, munster was an awesome combo, and the bread is nice and chewy.
The crew was fantastic, they were having a good time and cracking jokes even with all the orders flooding in. Definitely coming back to try some different sandwiches.

MISS LEADING AND DOES NOT CLOSE AT 9pm. I drove 25 minutes and arrived at 8:13pm only for the guy at the front to tell me and my friends that they arenât doing âhot sandwichesâ or âanything on the grillâ. If you close at 9 then you should close at 9. I understand if I came 10 minutes before closing and youâre cleaning up but to stop making more than half the menu 45 minutes before closing then whatâs the point in being open? It was a waste of time and lack of care by staff.

Awesome!! Definitely one of the best steak and cheese sandwiches in the area, one of the best around, the best I've had in a while. Ordering was easy, they are very nice and very helpful. They run a tight crew in the kitchen and get your orders out. Serving up quality food with great service. It's split kinda, deli half and convenience store half, so all your chips and drinks are right there, you pay up front for all your stuff at one counter. The menu has some interesting selections, I "highly" recommend. I love that they use traditional deli paper wrapping, with their insignia, not generic. The sandwich I got was loaded, not skimp. Hot, fresh and delicious. Will definitely return soon for another sandwich. Try the Medical Marinara

Whenever Iâm in Hamden I have to stop for their Chipotle Philly Chicken Sandwich. The Chipotle sauce is amazing, and the service is great. Everyone is super friendly.

Overall 3.5. My big issue was with customer service via phone. Ordered takeout, person who answered the phone didnât say ray and mikes deli, just âhelloâ. Ordered a cheesesteak sandwich, asked if it came with anything was told no, then once we finished my order asked how long and they hung up. Food was good, service inside seemed better. Disappointed based on the phone call.

In 53 years, Honestly, the âSleeping Giantâ was the best steak and cheese sandwich Iâve ever eaten. My only complaint was that half way thru the small sandwich roll, I wished I ordered the larger grinder. The garlic mayo and added pastrami was killer

Passing through town and decided to find a place for a quick breakfast! Service and food were exceptional! They were busy but you couldnât tell at all based on the quick service. We ordered the steak sandwich and a custom sandwich on a roll that Iâve gotten at countless delis but this place blew it out of the water! The staff was super kind and inviting. Best breakfast sandwiches weâve ever had! If you havenât stopped here, do yourself the favor and do it!

The Taylor Ham egg and cheese was borderline made from the heavens. Added a crispy hash brown right on the sandwich, I have to say I will be chasing this high for years to come. Service was great, but man that sandwich would have you leave your wife and kids for another one.

My job has ordered out to Ray & Mikeâs a handful of times, and they usually get my order wrong. I understand that it must be difficult to handle a lot of orders in a fast paced environment, but I canât even eat what they give me because they keep putting meat on sandwiches that I ask for without meat (Iâm vegetarian). Itâs gotten to the point that I dread getting food from here because I know theyâll get it wrong.
This place is a mad house. But in a good way!
