It's a classic deli, like in NYC years ago.

Would be a staple in the community but they get every to go order wrong.

Great food when order is prepared correctly. Unfortunately they ness up orders 70 to 80 percent of the time. Roll the dice and
good luck.

Really want to give them a 4-5 star but this is my second order where I decided to treat myself to a piece of cake and receive a cupcake instead and get charged full price. Very disappointing and misleading. If I had known I would be receiving a cupcake I would have not ordered the item and would have went with an alternative.

We stumbled across this deli while driving down I-40 West, just looking for something different than the usual chain—and wow, what a find! From the moment we walked in, Alexander at the counter was absolutely precious. He was so friendly, helpful, and engaging, taking time to share his own favorites and talk us through the menu.

I ordered the Arlington, and my son got a turkey sandwich and they were fantastic. Alexander even let us sample the chicken salad and pimento cheese—both were phenomenal! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with care.

This little spot is definitely worth the stop. I’ll absolutely be back, and I highly recommend it to anyone passing through—you will not be disappointed!

They have some of the best sandwiches I've eaten, including the delis in New York when I visit my parents. I bring guests from out of town whenever I can, and I've never had anyone leave disappointed.

The lunch rush can get quite crowded, but even then the wait staff is attentive and efficient. I wish there was an option to give six stars.

*Editing to add that the portions are generous to say the least. I've never left hungry, and often bring leftovers with me. This has been a constant over almost 20 years of eating here.

Great food, great atmosphere but perhaps most importantly, great people. Every employee smiled, made eye contact, welcomed us and seemed to truly appreciate us being there. We also couldn’t help but notice they have employed an impressive young woman with disabilities. Thank you for setting an example for others of what is possible. We will return!
