Downhill is being nice for the current ownership. Never again. 25 years I ate there once a week, came back after a couple years. Drove for nothing.

I have been a long time customer of Christopher's Deli and today they have lost my business. We ordered 2 hoagies and wow 2 previous hoagies could feed 4 people easily but today the sandwich barely has any meat in it. I literally took the sandwich apart and it had ONE slice of each meat and one slice of cheese on each half. Such a disappointment Christopher's HAD the best sandwiches filled with so much meat but now it's less than half. No idea what happened but the prices are still the same. I would rather pay more for the same old sandwiches of the past than the same for a horrible hoagie. This is not the same Christopher's that it was year ago. Not to mention I asked for no onion on one of the sandwiches and both had onion. I expressed this desire and the receipt said no onion on one but someone neglected the request. Good place gone bad. Sorry to see you go.

Got charged $15 for a basic hoagie. Prices never used to be anywhere near that. You definitely lost a customer by overcharging. Bad business move

Have been a customer at Christopher's for over 20 years, and could always count on quality food and service whether it be the hoagies, hot items, or their catering service. It had been quite a while since I had gone, but started back up about a year ago, going in for their Italian Hoagie. I immediately noticed the bread was different, and it was a much smaller sandwich. I have always loved their lasagna, so I went in and got some. It was so beyond disappointing, and absolutely NOTHING like it used to be! It was a soupy mess with what seemed to be a slice of cheese on top. To be honest, I'm not sure I ever even saw a noodle. It didn't even resemble lasagna. I also was very surprised that the bread was completely different. It was the tiniest flat roll that probably wasn't even two bites; also, tasted very stale. It used to come with a small slice of either Italian or French bread and always tasted fresh. It makes me so sad to see this place fall so far down hill.

It is such a shame to see what this former staple has become under the new ownership. Removing main items from the menu, raising prices while also shrinking to go containers, hiring too few staff. I would eat lunch here 2/3 times a week for nearly 30 years, spending who knows how much money over that time. Sadly, do not think I will be returning.
EDIT: I appreciated the owners response to my original post and the use of EVOO and grass fed butter and decided to give it another shot. The disappointment continues...
$16 for one serving of chicken and rice? even without a veggie. plus, this lemon chicken recipe was subpar compared to the previous lemon chicken that was served. why change it? I used to be able to get lunch here for $10-12 and it would last me for two lunches. What I just received could barely cover todays lunch and was more money. also, the bread was stale and hard and has been that way since not getting bread from cacias. For these prices and the quality of the recipe I just had, it will be hard to find myself back here

Have been ordering at this place for my entire life; my father and mother went the first time they opened. My blue collar father would eat here 2-3 times a week for literally 20 years, ever since the new owners, the food has continually gone down hill. The hoagies are now a portion of the size they used to be, any meat you get is either dry, too fatty or just not good. We got a salad, half the lettuce was horribly wilted. The meatloaf was SO salty, that I a person who over salts anything couldn’t eat it, and neither would my dogs, the meatballs were hard as a rock and had no flavor, and the baked ziti was so sweet it was disgusting. My entire family used to love Christopher’s, and now this will officially be our last purchase. If you’re used to eating here for years, I promise you it’s nothing like it used to be. Don’t get it.

Incredibly disappointed, attempted several times to purchase rice balls, (a Christopher's staple) only to find out they are no longer on the menu. I got the chicken parm instead, it was terrible, stringy and tough with little or no cheese. I will definitely miss the old Christopher's.

I have been a customer of Christopher’s’ for over 20 years and had them cater to my business for yearly holiday events. The place appears to have been sold as the food and level of service has deteriorated. The turkey platter was horrendous and had no seasoning! The meat was like chewing on a piece of corrugated cardboard and there was no gravy. The server (male) could not listen well as I clearly indicated that I needed utensils for the take out! Sadly, I’ll have to look elsewhere for better food and service!
We have been going to Christopher's for years,and I'm sad to say we won't be back.

The quality of the food has gone WAY down since the brothers left. My sister from out of state always looks forward to a sandwich/hoagie from Christopher's. Today the kaiser roll was stale and the ingredients didn't seem fresh. we have been eating there for almost 25 years--after today, I'm not sure we'll be eating there again.

Ordered some sandwiches the other night and got them home, opened them up I had a roast beef hoagie and is was inedible there was so much fat in the meat I had to throw it away. Ordered 2 sandwiches on kaiser rolls 1 piece of cheese and 1 small piece of tomato SAD. ordered the potato salad thinking it was homemade like it always used to be and it was no homemade it tasted like vinegar! I understand that Christopher does not own it any more and that is why it has gone down hill. NEVER again!

Fall was in the air and they were advertising their turkey dinner. What a disappointment when I opened the box and the turkey dinner consisted of lunch meat with gravy on it. Turkeys are not all that expensive, especially this time of year. Won't be going back there anytime soon. The people who work there that were very pleasant.
