50 Best Delis near Shelton

“Recommended from my coworkers and yea now I Highly recommend there breakfast sandwiches.“

“Randomly stumbled upon Gaetanos in Westport yesterday when looking for a place to get sandwiches before my son’s baseball game. Having grown up in Belmont Little Italy for the first 22 years of my life I was skeptical about the “Arthur Ave style..” claim on the sign. Well I can tell you they delivered and then some! Was warmly greeted, handled samples of delicious cheeses and more. They were too skeptical when I said I grew up on Arthur Ave but once we started chatting they knew I wasn’t BSing. Saw familiar faces and reminisced about life on Arthur Ave. The owners are warm and kind - the real deal keeping it true to the Arthur Ave spirit. Dare I say they might even do it better!! I can’t say enough about the excellent food and service. If I ever find myself in Westport again I will certainly make a visit! Aside from my son’s team’s win, this nostalgic experience truly made my day and made me feel like I was back home in the Bronx when life was more simple. And yes, everything we ordered and sampled was delicious! No skin on the eggplant and bread from Addeo - doesn’t get any better!“

“I love this place. They make the best grinders in my opinion, anywhere! They never disappoint and their food is phenomenal. I order from here at least 2-3 times a week. They’re that great!!“

“Absolutely love this place. They have a great selection of polish style foods, and spices. Been here numerous times, and plan to go there again and again. Very courteous people and extremely helpful. The best part is the hot foods and sausages. For a small store they carry a large selection.“

“The food is incredibly fresh AND delicious...and everybody working there has a smile on their face and is ready to help you if needed. I believe El Sol opened during the pandemic and they've been very successful...I believe that speaks for itself! I live right next door so I'm completely spoiled..🤣“

“My first time here was Saturday and I had a sandwich and I looked around and I saw a lot of other things I like I recommended it to everyone West Haven and beyond friendly atmosphere excellent prices and delicious food!!!“

“Amazing sandwiches & the best staff! My son walked in and saw the Grinch on the wall & he immediately got so excited. The wonderful staff drew a big Grinch on the bag for him. Thank you so much! You made his day 💚“

“The food is amazing, customer service is excellent and I recommend them to anybody.Iris made me feel welcome.“

“Outstanding catering order of chicken sorrentino, broccoli and cavetelli with sausage, porketta and garlic bread! Delicious and service very good! Thanks again!“

“Lamb over rice is delicious, highly recommend this halal food, it is family ran and operated. Thank you to Rosie and her family!“

“Anything & everything Amazing!!!! Soft spot for their Sicilian ❤️“

“This review is long overdue, I’ve been going to Mattei’s for a long time now. Their food is outstanding. If you like eggplant this place has the best eggplant I’ve ever had. Not to mention unlike a lot of other places, Mattei’s loads up their sandwiches and gives you PLENTY! The employees are also very polite and happy to help. All of their food is delicious, I highly recommend coming here and trying it.“

“Had an amazing salad today with candy walnuts apples and much more.. Amazing can’t wait to try other things on their menu..“

“I seriously loved this place. The atmosphere and the customer service were amazing, but the food is what really won me over. I just finished eating and felt like I had to write a review. Everything tasted fresh, homemade, and so comforting.

Even though the menu is international, there are a lot of Ecuadorian dishes and snacks that really stood out to me. It made me so happy to see my country’s food represented in such a beautiful way. I haven’t experienced that in a long time.

Definitely give this spot a try, you won’t regret it!!!! :)“

“Delicious food! Highly recommended“

“We do work all over and try many different places for lunch Home Plate is the best place for a sandwich hands down!!“

“I lived in this area in 2009 and discovered this little gem. I moved back to my home state of Michigan in 2010 but still have my whole family in West Haven, so I still come to town every 3-4 years to visit, and when I do? You best believe i am making a pit stop in here for a pastrami sub. 😋 This is 100% the best deli i have ever been to. The man and woman running it are the sweetest people, they always remember us when I mention we are from Michigan, and the food? Absolutely phenomenal. The steak subs? Delicious. The Italian combo? Large and full of flavor and toppings. However, the pastrami will always have my heart. No where even back in Michigan compares. 100/10. Go support this business. You and your taste buds won't regret it.“

“We got sandwiches today from Seeley’s. I have to say, they were two of the BEST sandwiches we have ever eaten. It was our first time ordering there…..it will become a regular stop from now on!“

“Loved the stuffed cabbage, pierogies, potato pancakes and kielbasa! Highly recommended!“

“Always so good and such great prices. Roast beef, sliced chicken, Genoa salami and cheddar cheese on a hard roll with a soda and a bag of chips for $14? Yes please and thank you.

Parking: Place gets packed so sometimes it’s hard to find parking.“

“Absolutely awesome Polish store with ALL the goodies you cen imagine. Come and taste their delicious meats, cheeses, kielbasas and you will be hooked for life!!! :) :)“

“I love their chicken over rice. The lamb of rice is also very good. It’s not dry at all. The grilled chicken sandwich is my favorite without the cheese. Their cheeseburger hamburger quality of the meat is amazing. Highly recommend this place.“

“So I typically have a great sandwich here, but the other day I placed an order over the phone for my grandfather’s birthday, and when I showed up too early to pick up the order I thought I heard they didn’t have one type of meats for the ‘Sweet Italian Combo’ (of course my grandfather’s sandwich, out of all of them ordered). I thought nothing of it as nobody said a word to me from behind the counter. Grabbed the orders and paid, get home and it was a grilled chicken sandwich with ham (random combination) BUT was labeled as the Sweet Italian. It all made sense now, and I was not mistaken from what I heard. The Provy Brother’s would of never of pulled that ‘stunt’ and would have been transparent that they did not have the available meat(s) for the sandwich instead of making whatever they decided AND labelling it as the requested sandwich when it was not. Yes, the sandwich was still good, but imagine my grandfather’s surprise on his 86th birthday that his favorite sandwich he ordered from his favorite sandwich shop was not what he ordered or wanted on his special day. Please don’t EVER do that again to anyone. That was messed up and you all know what you did. And yes, we will give you all another chance as your sandwiches are always great. Just please be honest to your loyal customers.“

“I've been getting food here since I was old enough to get behind a wheel! What a hidden gem. Not hidden, per se, but certainly easy to drive past and not notice. Breakfast sandwiches are second to none. Lunch has never disappointed. Love this place!!!“

“Very delicious food. I love the sandwich specials and potato cakes. The cole slaw and pickles top it off. And the deserts are delicious.“

“high quality, great variety, generous portions, great prices!“

“Love this place and stop in almost daily for a quick sandwich and drink. Rocky is awesome and always does your food up quick! Great for those of us on the run but want something MORE then mcdonalds. He offers some Asian stuff (egg rolls, soup, wontons) plus all kinds of sandwiches.“

“The most delicious chicken sandwich with Ish sauce 🤤“

“Well I never been inside but the bacon and egg sandwich with home fries went down didn't they“

“The atmosphere is amazing Portuges American culture at it’s best. Their rolls are sold state wide in grocery stores. Time makes a ? world of difference purchasing rolls the same day out the oven priceless. Bola de Rey dates back to early 1800 also known as kings bread. Bucket list.“

“Fantastic breakfast and lunch sandwiches, and the daily specials are great. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Definitely my go-to spot for lunch. Highly recommend giving it a try if you haven't already.“

“Toda la comida super rica me encanto el lugar y muy buena atención al cliente 🙏🏼⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The best!! If you haven’t gone what are you waiting for?? RUNNN!! Everything is delicious!!👌🏼“

“A really good deli spot in Bridgeport. They have awesome sandwiches and soup options. They also have a breakfast menu as well. The lunch spot is no frills, a bunch of trackers to eat your lunch but the staff is really friendly and it’s the type of place when you come in, they remember your name.“

“Fantastic breakfast. My husband got 2 bacon egg and cheese and a hard roll. The rolls were soooo fresh. I ordered the veggie wrap. Delicious. Veggies were fresh and lots of them. Eggs cooked perfectly on all.
Will definitely stop by here again.“

“AMAZING! A.S is amazing. Their staff is so patient and helpful. The quality of the food and cleanliness of the location is near perfect. We usually travel to Norwalk, but thankful they opened a location near Shelton/Monroe. We went before Christmas Eve and it made our holiday feel “normal”.“

“Fresh Polish cold cuts. Polish breads - not everyone knows - are without chemicals and made with 5 ingredients only!!!! Flour, salt, water, yeast, sugar. Besides that, spices in best prices, many in ecological grade, fantastic Polish mineral waters from springs and containing minerals essential to human health. Once you start drinking them, you are not going to drink fake Gatorade drinks that are not only filled with harmful colorants but also contain sugar.“

“Good place to go for breakfast“

“Good food at great prize.“

“Can’t believe we’ve driven by this spot so many times and only just discovered it! This deli made for a quick brunch when we needed a break from putting up our Christmas decorations. Fresh pastries, prepared foods, and locally sourced bagels. They didn’t skimp on our Italian combo either! The staff prepared our order quickly, and the space was clean. A great spot to know about!“

“Once again, the designer Marlene, did another excellent cake decoration. This is my second cake with Chaves Bakery, and once again I highly recommend them for anyone looking a beautiful and delicious cake. I thank you Marlene for your service, by the way the Red Velvet cake was delicious. Good Job once again.“

“Amazing, tiny Polish grocery packed with all manner and variety of Polish goodies. The 2 workers there were most helpful and pleasant. Fun to browse and try new things or find favorites for friends and family. The parking is on Rte 34 and a bit tricky but can be done.“

“I just did a grubhub pickup of a cheeseburger and chicken tenders with fries. Best tenders I have ever had. Burger was great too. Very pleasant atmosphere when walking in. Highly recommended.“

“Whoever talks trash about the workers is a trash themselves. These guys are amazing and very fast with orders. Sincerely some of us as customers can be frustrating while these hardworking guys are trying to serve us right. I’d say you should come at night esp the 2 black guys at night. The grilled chicken was worth Dieing for.“

“We had a catering order on Saturday from Nardelli’s in Oxford. I give it 5 stars. The food was delicious ( outstanding Stuffed Shells among other items) and presented well. It was delivered early by Tyler who was so helpful and pleasant. I could not be more pleased. Thanks to all in Oxford!“

“I've enjoyed Biofix and Loyd teas for years. Good health in a cup. Got a good deal from Maple Mart for all my favorites.“
