49 Best Delis near Potomac

“Wonderful deli food, great service. Salami and eggs were done perfectly and Matzo Ball Soup was to die for!“

“A good friend brought me here today as a surprise for breakfast. Bruce used to brings his daughters here when they were at home. Now in their twenties, they live elsewhere and cherish the memories and the connection. I spoke with ‘Karama’ who is one of the owners. His deli does not disappoint anyone. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was wonderful. I had the Boker Tov special for with two eggs, a pancake, a bagel, and hash browns, and a cup of delicious coffee. Perfect!“

“Cute place to grab breakfast. I give it 4 stars, it’s just a hyped up breakfast spot. The bagels were okay and the service was very good. No space inside to eat so be prepared to eat it outside, we didn’t mind since it was beautiful out but check the weather prior to arriving. I would come back if I am close by but I wouldn’t take an uber 25 minutes for a bagel here.“

“Now THIS is a sandwich! The semolina sesame bread is only made better by the STACK of meat they generously pile on, plus all the toppings. I had the roast beef and turkey, and my friend had the eggplant parm… both fanTAStic. Regret I have to drive all the way from Fairfax to get here (we don’t have good sandwich places in the Frfx Sta/Burke area), but I will just to try everything on the menu. Special thanks to the guys who run it - they obviously enjoy people & their job - their friendliness is big enough to fill their small establishment. Take your appetite and GO!“

“This hidden gem needs to be FOUND by everyone! Met one of the owners, Mark, in Pazzo Pomodoro recently who told me about Nozzo Pazzo. I have since fallen in love with their sandwiches the Bugs Bunny and the Green Arrow wraps (vegan) which I return to get regularly. Then found out they also do breakfast! After Mark described how they make the French toast, I couldn’t stop thinking about it! I had it this morning, and believe me it is melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The place is so beautifully set up, and the tunes playing over the speakers were equally awesome! An absolute must try!“

“I drive over an hour to get here and it's well with the drive. I've been there twice in two weeks and always walk out with more than I intended to buy. Large selection of Polish goods that makes the trip more than worthwhile. Very friendly staff as well. Jadę ponad godzinę, żeby tu dojechać i jest warto tak długo jechac. Byłem tu dwa razy w ciągu dwóch tygodni, duży wybór polskich towarów i zawsze wychodzę z większą ilością zakupów niż zamierzałem kupić. Bardzo przyjazny personel“

“At Xiomara suggestion, I ordered El Granseza sandwich for the first time , the very melted mozzarella cheese is super delicious and the red chilly has a great flavor touch.the service is awesome.Definitely I’ll comeback and also recommend it to my friends thanks Xiomara.“

“I would give it five stars if I could!! There are sooo many vegan options, just about as many as the non vegan options. The vegan menu is separate and clearly labeled. Staff/owners are so friendly, too. Prices are reasonable. There is indoor and outdoor seating available, and plenty of parking on site. Definitely recommend this place- it's my favorite place to get vegan food in Gaithersburg.“

“I got the royal palm, nitro cold brew and a cookie. The sandwich was pretty good, and there was a reasonable amount of salmon on it. The sides/drinks were good. My bagel honestly wasn't great which was surprising coming from a place that sells a lot of bagels. While I would probably go back and/or try some of the other sandwiches, I'm not sure what would bring me here over some of the other bagel places around Bethesda.

Parking: Difficult to find a spot, especially during prime time.“

“Fantastic breakfast sandwiches in the area. Bagels are soft and seasoned well. You get a generous portion of bacon/sausage, egg and cheese. It's definitely worth the money. They have a lot of seating available if you eat there and there staff is very nice. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!“

“Solid little deli. This is basically DeliClub under new ownership and many of the menu items remained the same. I'm a fan of the avocado BLT and the chicken curry sandwich.Sandwiches come with a bag of chips.

Vegetarian options: Caprese salad, burrata and figs salad“

“I have been coming to Cornucopia for 10+ years. Unfortunately I only come when visiting family since it is several hours away from my home. Every time I come the selection of items is outstanding & almost every single thing is imported from Italy. The best thing about this place by far is the desserts & the sandwiches. Ebo makes the bread fresh daily & it is absolutely phenomenal. I usually end up bringing multiple sandwich’s back home with me due to how amazing they are. The veggies & meats are so fresh & so flavorful it is truly unlike any other sandwich shop. If you’re in the area, this is a must try. Truly a hidden gem of Bethesda.“

“I'm from out of town but, as a seasoned traveler, I spotted a UPS delivery driver eating and noticed the plain foil wrap he was holding. That was a sign of flavor packed simple food. He told me where to buy it and went straight there. Chicken Madness is what I order and at first impression, the sandwich was fresh hot in temperature. Then, when I took the first bite I was reborn. I would love to visit DC again and most definitely stop by for 3 of these amazing sandwiches.“

“Great little restaurant. We came here looking for donuts, no donuts but they had delicious ice cream. We decided to come back and get some food. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful with service. Portions are great and we will come back for more.“

“The food, coffee and service was excellent as usual !“

“I was in Maryland for a few days, and i was having trouble to find a good place to have breakfast at a reasonable price and I found this place. It made it easy for myself and my family to get a good breakfast. I ate there at least once a day everyday I was there. The owner was very nice and they were very clean when getting my food done, I also liked how food wasn’t all greasy. I recommend this place I would definitely go back in the future if I go back to Maryland :)“

“Run by a nice family, this place has been a winner for years. While I do miss Ezat, who used to bake the flatbreads in the back of the store, this market carries many types of great ME breads and many other ME products. While their canned or bottled foods can be priced a bit high, this market is an overall winner! Love it! Superb!“

“If you want a great breakfast, with homemade home fries and great pancakes, go to Madison deli. They also have terrific sandwiches salads and soups. During non-Covid times, they make the best Korean bulgogi around. I highly recommend it!“

“All of us here at Autopart International love Ziggy Deli! Many of us get breakfast and lunch from them, sometimes both in the same day. They are always nice and welcoming. Their prices are extremely reasonable for the quality and taste of their food! We love you guys!“

“Best bagel I ever had! Great customer service! I love this place! Hilltop!“

“Jean’s Deli is the kind of place I’d frequent almost daily if I worked in the area. For its modest size, the restaurant boasts an extensive menu of hearty fare (hot/cold sandwiches, burgers, breakfast items), as well as fresh salads, a fruit bar, and other lighter options. Everything we’ve tried is seasoned just right with generous portions, and the produce they use is unfailingly fresh. The deli’s been run by the same owners for the past 35 years, a couple with the kindest demeanor who put meticulous care into everything they make and serve. If you work nearby or are simply passing through, bookmark this spot and give it a visit.“

“Today Italian Gourmet was amazing getting a tray of sandwiches ready in very short time. They are the best!“

“Amazing deli. Wonderful and friendly staff with tasty food. For lunch I recommend the Chevy Chase. They also have a great breakfast selection. The staff is always happy and greets you at the door. They know their customers and remember your order. 10/10 recommend!“

“All of the products are authentic and amazing quality. My father in law said that the stuff from this store were the same products he had from his childhood when he lived in Italy. He was very happy with the gift basket I made from the products here. The Italian cold cut is AMAZING and I always get one every time I visit. The pizzas are very tasty too. My fave is the white pizza with onions and my husbands favorite is the cheese and also gets toppings too but if the cheese pizza is good then everything else is a bonus. ONE Bite, everyone knows the rules. 😉“

“The place is so neat and the staff are very welcoming and polite. I got exactly what I ordered and I recommend their steak and cheese. It’s so delicious and they pay attention to the toppings I request.
Try it for yourself and thank me later!?“

“Great food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Over the past four years, I was a regular at Rock Cafe while working near by - going three to four times a week when working there. Across four years, this adds up to well over one hundred orders. Here is my thorough review on everything!

Service - a lot of us regulars would refer to the Cafe as 'Frank's', after the owner who is there with his team every day. Frank is a great man, who I have had the pleasure of getting to know very well. I would often times go over and he would immediately know my orders depending on the day of the week. Despite being a lean team they are fast and efficient, and if they do forget something are quick to fix it apologetically. During the school year they have dozens of students come between the hours of 11:15 and 11:45, but even then you'll get you food fast enough.

Ambiance - while a simple interior, there is still places to sit both inside and outside. I typically take the food back to my office space, but on a nice day there are worst corporate parks to sit at.

Food - as past reviewers have stated, there are lots of different specials depending on the day of the week. My go-to favorites are the following:

- Chana Masala on Mondays - an appropriate level of spice with tons of flavor. Comes with rice, naan and raita.
- Italian Coldcut on Tuesdays, which come with a side of chips. In general, I his sandwiches were my go-to when I couldn't make a decision
- Chicken Burrito Bowls on Wednesday - a much better value than places nearby and always filled me up. Probably my personal favorite. I would typically add hot sauce too.
- Butter Chicken w/ Naan and Rice on Thursdays - similar to the Chana in that it was very flavorful with a touch of spice, but nothing that should deter away those that aren't completely averse to it. Super popular - they typically sell out before one.
- For breakfast, his sandwiches are the best deal in the area! Fresh bagels and egg with your choice of meat and cheese. Highly, highly recommend!

In general, I also liked the paninis and his chicken quesadilla. I would occasionally get salads, although these were typically my least preferred option.

Overall - for great service and good food at some of the best prices in Montgomery County, you can't go wrong with Rock Cafe! I know they'll also take larger orders if you call ahead of time, so great for work/team events too.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair acessable, on ground floor with openable doors.“

“This is an unassuming deli with a wide variety of options, including vegetarian and vegan ones. I got the Caprese panini and it was perfect. The taste, size and ingredient proportions, and presentation were great. The two ladies I met who worked there were welcoming, friendly, courteous and kind. This is my new go-to sandwich place in Bethesda.“

“Great little spot inside the office building. They were very accommodating to my husband's low salt diet. The bulgolgi was fantastic and the chicken salad and unsalted fries that my husband had were both delicious, even without salt. Whenever I'm this way again, I have a new place to stop into.

Dietary restrictions: Accommodating to low salt diet“

“Talk about a hidden gem! Nestled in the ground floor of a corporate office building, at that! It's a bit tough to find, but it's totally worth it for the food once you do.Do yourself a favor and order the Bulgogi Sub. It's an undisputed 10/10.“

“Delicious 😋 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋“

“The little deli can fool you. Yes they serve fresh Chinese and Latin dishes! You can't beat handmade and fresh flour tortillas (breakfast only)!Just had a Baleada....yum,yum!!!! My rating is for price, taste and customer service. I found out these are only available for breakfast.Breakfast Baliada and a drink $10-15.“

“I have lived in Rockville my whole life and just discovered this Deli when I was looking for something quick to eat in the area. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the workers were at making each sandwich with care to each of our different wants. The quality of the meat was very good and the sandwich was big and delicious. I ordered the Godfather Sub toasted. Highly recommend. They also have a good variety on the menu and you can grab a beer or wine and bag of chips just as easy.“

“Reputable meals for holidays or any day. Delicious turkey as well as ham!“

“I've only done the hot bar/salad bar here and not MTO. Everything always seems very fresh, there's a great variety. The cashiers are super quick. Drink selection is huge (fountain and bottled drinks). Great option if you're super hungry or just need a little snack since the bars are by weight.“

“im from further up north and shops like these take the form of standalone delis. i was disappointed bc i couldn't find a cheap BEC anywhere. but i learned that those places can be found in the ground floor of hospitals and offices. and they are amazing.

this place is no exception. seems like one lady runs it all, and she provides excellent service.“

“This is one of the coolest shops in the northern virginia area. On first glance it looks like a nice little convenience store but it is so much more. First of all, the products are all handpicked quality items, ranging from some novelty and speciality goods such as snacks to more everyday items such as toothpaste and deodorant. The items are all fairly priced and you can find some really rare finds that are truly amazing. The best thing about this shop is it that the family that owns the store are a wonderful bunch, ready to cater to your every need especially if you are a regular here. If you are ever there and Suly, the manager, is available feel free to ask him anything and he will do his best to accommodate you!“

“The best shawarma I've had in VA! A hidden gem in the heart of McLean - perfect for breakfast and lunch. They make delicious sandwiches, salads, and sides. I've tried shawarma in many places in the area, but their beef and chicken shawarmas are truly the best I've had in a long time. The meat is tender and flavorful. Their customer service is amazing and they also have outdoor seating. Highly recommend!“

“A small but mighty market. Staff is friendly.

There is a selection of beer, wine, snacks, & drinks. There is also fresh hot and cold food made to order.

I love popping in here for a nice cold turkey sandwich and a bag of salt and vinegar chips.

The turkey sandwich isn't fancy or anything and is a standard brown sack lunch type but it's great in my book.“

“Very nice and convenient place to eat. I work at the Galleria, which is right around the way. The menu has variety and the staff are very friendly and professional. You could eat outside as well and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Tysons II business park. 👍🏽💯🍗🍔🍟🍕🌭🥪🌮🌯🥙🍳🥘🍲🫕🥤🧋🧃🫡😎“

“Honey baked ham is a secret gem. People forget they serve everything from full meals to amazing sandwiches. And they offer order online and pick up in store. So you can be in out and quick. This location was really quick and super clean. If you are looking for a side dish and cant decide. Try the Mac and cheese it is really good.“

“Randolph Deli has changed owners who provide excellent, friendly service. The store now carries a wide selection of grocery items including diet drinks that aren't usually available and various types of beer and wine. Service is quick and the owners go out of their way to give you what you want. I made a casual comment that they carried a lot of diet soda but not diet Mountain Dew. A week later I was grabbing a few quick things and noticed 20 oz and 2 Liter bottles of it! They now keep it in stock just in case. While waiting for food to cook the owners are even helping me with my French.“

“As a New York Pizza lover, my pizza standards are extremely high and I’m big on taste and size. This place assuredly get 10 out of 5 stars; with no equivocations!!! It’s going to be hard transitioning back to a typical mundane pizza restaurant after experiencing Santini’s. Grateful to finally know there is a true authentic New York pizza restaurant in the DC area. I also appreciate the professional friendly service. Did I mention that i travel 45 miles to get to the closest Santini’s?! 👍👍“

“Love this deli, the husband and wife team make delicious breakfasts and lunch time goodies. Dont miss there freshly baked daily cookies! Friday Chicken paradise sandwich is my favorite, ooh and french toast combo in the morning ,mumm , guess I have multiple favorites.^.^Check them out the next time you go to Shady Grove Fertility, great place to hang out during your parters egg retrieval!#shadygrovefertility“

“Santini’s staff knows how to make a great Lamb Gyro, NY Subs, Meatballs Subs and their signature boardwalk fries. A small wood bar with HDTV tuned to soccer, baseball, or football depending on the time of year.“

“Great fast service! Great people!“

“Very friendly staff & an excellent sandwich! It was my first visit, I would highly recommend it.“
