Really disappointed…ordered the Wednesday breaded pork chop with macaroni and sweet potatoes and had it ‘to go’. Never again! Should have checked it in the parking lot but instead got home and was appalled they let this go out of their restaurant like this: both breaded chops were burnt, flat as a pancake and no taste except the burntness - could hardly chew it. The macaroni bland - no seasoning. The sweet potatoes were more of a fruit salad, like an ice-cream-scoop of yams with raisins, pineapple and marshmallows and again, bland. Called and told them, wanted to comp me - I won’t be back.

What happened to this place? I've been coming here for close to a decade ordering the same thing every time. I always get the fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy and veg. We moved out of town for about 2 years and recently came back. I was so excited to go to world deli and order my favorite. I called and placed the order. I even got two dinners because I wanted to have an extra to share with my mom. It was just that good! When I got in the car I opened the containers to see the delicacy. The smell instantly hit my face. It smelled sour ...like spoiled chicken. I knew instantly that the meat was not good. The breading looked different as well. The normally Brown delicious breading was light-colored and different. Even the gravy look different. The mashed potatoes were lumpy and not as delicious as they had been for the last 10 years. I was sadly disappointed. The chicken was so inedible I had to bring it back and return both dinners. I am thankful they gave me my money back.
I will say that in the past I usually have gone during the day around lunch time. This time it was at dinner time. A young man helped me and he seemed to be the manager type. Not sure if he is new or inherited the business or what not, but I have seen from other reviews that some things are different. It's a shame because this place has a lot of loyal customers and most of those customers want what they've had for years and that's what makes them come back over and over again . Somehow I feel as if the good days here are over with .Goodbye World Deli!

Hole in the wall. $20 for a small corned beef Po Boy and small soda. Unbelievably they charged 50 cents extra for a fully dressed Po Boy which I’ve never seen in any other restaurant in the 50 years I’ve been here. Rude, robotic staff. Steer clear of this rip off restaurant my friends.

Love this place. DO NOT order a pesto chicken panini though. The chicken was straight out of a freezer bag. Not good. Poboys and everything else i’ve had is good though.

They're not very friendly. Not rude, just standoffish.
My panini wasn't a traditional panini; just a sandwich on regular toasted bread. It was very good though. Portions are large and quality is good. I'd go back.

I'm sorry, but I'm not going to be comfortable in a place where people are treated poorly, even feeling disrespectful with contemptuous looks and a bad atmosphere. We have to be human.

The veal with mushroom gravy is the absolute best. The crawfish ettouffe is crazy good especially on top of fried catfish. You can’t go wrong whatever you order.

Don't order a panini. 1st, it's not on panini bread, just white toast. $13 for a barely toasted white bread sandwich is expensive IMO since it didn't come with chips or a side. Service was fine and it's a cute, clean place. Other food that went by looked much better. It was my 1st time here and I guess just ordered the wrong thing.

We bought the lasagna from the freezer and thawed it for supper. It was the best lasagna I have ever eaten. We ate half and put the other half in the freezer for another day. I have eaten this dish in a number of restaurants and they didn’t come close.
