I had a great experience at Capo Deli. I tried the California Steak & Cheese and the Capo Special, and both were outstanding. The steak & cheese was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced, while the Capo Special had an amazing mix of Italian meats and their signature vinaigrette. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the quality of the ingredients really stood out. Highly recommended!

Update: After I posted this, the deli reached out and asked me to stop by. They remade the 11-inch honey turkey Italian sub exactly how I order it, and this time it was fresh, had the oil/vinegar/mayo like I asked, and tasted the way I expect from them. I really appreciate them taking care of it and making it right.

I’ve been a regular fan of this deli and usually order through DoorDash. My go-to is an 11-inch honey turkey Italian sub with lettuce, tomato, onions, oil, vinegar, and mayo. Lately the quality has slipped. On my latest order the bread tasted old, and even though I requested extra oil, vinegar, and mayo, none of it was added—the sandwich arrived dry. I still ate it because I was hungry, but I left unsatisfied. I hope the team can tighten up freshness and follow special instructions so I can feel confident ordering again.

We really love this place, we tried the new chicken vodka sandwich and its perfect, we also tried a california steak and cheese and my husband and me love all the food, the place and the staff because the cashier was more than kind and respectful with us.
All the people must try the banana pudding, its delicious and sweet.
I will come back for sure, thank you guys.

I’m a New York girl, and these sandwiches are definitely nostalgic. I love Boars Head and any place that exclusively carries that brand.

Sandwiches are great, but never, ever order the “Fresh Baked” chocolate chip cookie. It is a rip off and reminds me of a smaller chips-a-hoy cookie. Pretty sad offering!!! Do not order this unless you are on a diet and badly want to not eat.

If you’re looking for an amazing spot to grab a delicious sub in Cabin John, Capos Deli is a must-visit. Their sandwiches are packed with flavor and made with the freshest ingredients, and you can really taste the quality in every bite. The meatball sub is hearty and comforting, with tender meatballs and just the right amount of sauce and melted cheese—it’s the kind of sandwich you crave again and again. The Italian sub is another standout, perfectly balanced with layers of savory meats, cheese, and crisp veggies on their fresh bread. For something a little lighter but still just as satisfying, the turkey sub hits the spot with its fresh, flavorful ingredients and generous portions.
And of course, you can’t leave without trying the tiramisu. It’s creamy, rich, and the perfect sweet finish after a big, satisfying sub. Between the great food, friendly service, and cozy local feel, Capos Deli has quickly become a favorite in Cabin John. Whether you’re grabbing lunch, dinner, or something to take home, you won’t be disappointed.

The food is very good and also the customer service is excellent

About a year ago, I had a horrible experience with the staff at this establishment. Today, I returned to try again. I must say this place has completely changed. The cashier was super nice to me.
We had a delicious California and Italian sanwiches. The food was good, the place was cozy, and the staff was friendly and courteous at all times.
I'll say it was a great idea to give it another chance. I hope they continue like this, and thank you so much for such delicious food.

This is a cute little deli shop with great service and cozy little nook to seat and eat. The bread is super fresh, and the meat and veggie quality is great. The staffs are super friendly and the store is very clean and neat. Nice little touches on chalk board and banana gram tiles while you wait for your delicious sandwich. I loved they used little wooden board instead of a dish or plate. If you dont finish your sandwich, the staff kindly wrap it for you as well. This was our first time visiting, but this place quickly became our favorite deli!

I just ordered from Capo and have them saved as a favorite. Shortly after my order was placed I received a courtesy call ensuring all the toppings were correct; they were. I’m now enjoying the most authentic Italian sub. The sesame seed roll absolutely makes the Italian Sub.

Edit to this review. We asked for the owner to reach out to us. He did immediately and was more than accommodating. We hope he can get his issues with accuracy resolved. The food is very good. It’s just frustrating when you don’t get what you order.

This is the third time we have ordered from Capo through Uber Eats. Each time we ordered it comes wrong. It’s really frustrating. Tried to call and speak to a manager and the person I spoke to could not understand my issue.

I really like the subs also they have change their staff and they are really nice.

I decided to try the restaurant, it's one of the best sandwiches I've ever tried, I ordered a fontina and it was so fresh and with so much flavor, my kids asked for a meatball and a California and they both fell in love, in addition, the cashier was super friendly and helpful, clearly we will return, thank you very much for the service.
