One cashier, he said his name was Dylan OBrien, SPAT on me. He then he took all my food, and then rubbed his hands all over my steak. It was HORRIBLE! He then broke my eggs one by one on my head! Then he popped my tires. I DO NOT RECCOMEND DYLAN O BRIEN. TERMINATE HIM!!!!!!

Do not rely on this business' employees to know what they have in their stores. They gave me incorrect information over the phone and I wasted my time and money ubering there for nothing. I wasted $70 and 1.5 hours of my life ubering to this place after they confirmed over the phone that they had haggis (the Scottish food) in stock, only to have the staff act like they didn't know what I was talking about when I arrived. I specifically asked about this product, I specifically confirmed the location to make sure I went to the right store, and I had them repeat it to make absolutely sure they had it, and they were totally clueless. Absolutely unprofessional. I have no idea what I could have done differently to avoid this. The woman who answered the phone left me on hold for fifteen minutes while she went and checked, and verbally confirmed to me over the phone that they had it. I just have no idea why they would say they had something so specific if they were just making it up.

Do not recommend the pulled BBQ pork in the deli - full of bones and gristle. Watch out for your teeth! Not worth the price they're charging.

My family went again after taking a few years off. It appeared to be cleaner. The pulled bbq chix sandwich was wonderful

Our party of five enjoyed another excellent lunch today at Wagshal's in Spring Valley. Channon was on top form as always, anticipating our every needs. Our seating was quickly arranged, the coffee was hot, and our orders arrived promptly. My smoked salmon plate came with cream cheese, olives, capers, a lightly-toasted bagel, and slices of cucumber on bed of salad greens -- complementary flavors, all freshly prepared.

I ordered their brisket sandwich. Pure gristle, basically inedible. I was with a friend whom I hadn't seen for a long time so I didn't make an issue on the spot. I just ate the fries. The following day I brought it to their attention sending to both emails for the New Mexico Ave location. Totally ignored my messages. If you are going to charge that much for sandwich it better be good or at least be willing to rectify the mistake. There's plenty of competition for lunch in the area.

This place has new ownership and it's not clean. Rats have been spotted in the back and kids who have worked there say it's unsanitary workers use their hands to taste food. Gross

I went and order fries and ask to cook them soft, not crunchy. When I received them and went back to work (only 2 minute walk), the fries we hard and very crunchy. This is the second review I have wrote about different issues at this place. And they charge 6.05 for the fries, my co-worker tried them and spit them out. I would say do better, but when you have the conversation first about your food and they still make it wrong. #nevergoingback
This review is for the Chef Trini's pop up. Worst doubles I've ever had in my life. The barra was too thick and had the wrong flavors, chickpeas were not seasoned well, the dish is supposed to be served with a pepper sauce but there was nothing spicy on the plate. The "chutney" they gave me was Thai sweet sauce, which has no place in a trini dish. This dish is clearly for people that don't know any better. The server was nice but they are clearly understaffed, and for a to go order, there was miscommunication between him and the kitchen. Never again. Do not go here for Trini food. I truly knew better but I was unexpectedly in the area and wanted to get a quick lunch. Don't do it!

There is clearly a transition going on at this Wagshal's but after one disappointing experience, we got two great sandwiches there yesterday - up to the standards we expect - plentiful and delicious. My guess is that this will be the new normal. If otherwise, we will report.

I wish I'd come here first to read the recent reviews. This is not the deli I used to stop in for sandwiches as a local undergrad. To be fair, it was more than 20 years ago - but that does not negate how awful it was today. My Ruben was lackluster at best. For $17 I expected the meat portion to reflect that price point. It did not. Then to top it off, the corned beef itself was just ok and there was waaaay too much sauerkraut for the amount of meat on the bread, throwing the sandwich proportions all Off. Just a really overall underwhelming sandwich. Very disappointing as I was looking forward to stopping in while I was in the area.

3.5 stars Stopped in to grab a few things and some sandwiches. They stock some nice prepackaged items, nothing seemed to have a price tag which is annoying, but prices overall were ok for dry goods. Got a couple things from their deli and sandwiches, which overall feel overpriced. Italian sandwich was ok, but small for $16 and the bread needs to soak up a ton of the dressing. The reuben was decent and the better of the two. Also ordered empanadas which were pretty good, but $6 each is crazy.

DO NO GO TO THE DELI FOR BREAKFAST. It is like airplane food and priced like airport food A bacon egg and cheese sandwich is $10 and it is a premade egg patty that is microwaved. The sausage for the egg sandwich is also microwaved but barely warm. The cheese barely melts. The Kaiser roll is greasy and nasty. A deli of this type, which has an adjoining restaurant, should have a griddle and cook the sandwiches to order. If I didn't arrive hypoglycemic and hangry OR known how expensive they were going to be I would've stopped the process and refused the sandwiches. Deli staff is very sweet but register staff is cranky.
