Heard about this place for years. Was sitting in traffic on the Belt and asked google to find me a nearby deli...Jimmy's Famous pops up...less that 5 mins away....hell yeah....ordered a turkey hero with provolone....I'm a Chef by profession...this was by far the BEST Turkey Hero I've ever had. PERFECT. Owner was awesome too. We talked baseball...he had recently gone to Fenway...I had recently returned from Los Angeles and we talked Yankees, Mets, Dodgers, Boston. Great place, great experience, great hero!!

Some friends came over to help me move and we ordered sandwiches delivered from here. Got tuna, mortadella, and Italian combo. They were all great and for whatever reason Jimmy’s actually gave us doubles of everything. I had the mortadella and it was so great! Highly recommended! Sorry the picture sucks

Tucked away in the heart of Brooklyn, there's a hidden gem where time seems to stand still, and every sandwich tells a story. For 47 years, Victor has been behind the counter, crafting the kind of sandwiches that make you rethink what you knew about food. This isn't just a deli; it's an institution, a love letter to the neighborhood.
When I walked in, I told Victor I'd come back after nine years, hoping the place hadn't changed. Without missing a beat, he smiled, leaned in, and asked, "What do you feel like today?" No menu was needed. He whipped up a chicken cutlet sandwich that was somehow exactly what I needed, as if he'd known me all my life. The cutlet was perfectly crisp, the bread fresh and warm, and every bite was a symphony of flavors that only comes from decades of passion and practice.
And just when I thought the experience couldn't get any better, he slid a free cannoli across the counter, accompanied by a story so rich you'd swear it had its own secret ingredients. Victor is the kind of guy who knows that food isn't just about what’s on the plate; it’s about the conversation, the shared moments, the humanity.
If you ever find yourself in Brooklyn, hungry for something real, something unforgettable, you know where to go. Just ask for Victor. He’ll take care of the rest.

The worst service I have seen, I don’t understand how the employee making the sandwich can prepare it without using gloves, how ridiculous, I have been a loyal customer for over 12 years dealing with victor who is the best, but the females working there don’t wear gloves and touch their face, scratch their noses and then make my sandwich, I will not buy from their again and I don’t recommend anyone to buy, PLEASE START WEARING GLOVES!!!!!!!
