Continental Lunchonette & Deli is a family-owned neighborhood deli known for its high-quality food and friendly service. It offers a variety of options, including a tasty Cuban sandwich and a creamy, fluffy egg wrap. Customers often praise their breakfast choices, especially the eggs on roll sandwich. The chicken over rice platter is described as delicious, with fresh ingredients, and the place is a hidden gem. It provides a cozy environment with newspapers, groceries, and even a lottery. The deli also serves solid Queens NY style bodega food, with well-seasoned tomatoes that add a special touch to sandwiches. The bagel lox is delicious, with chewy yet easy-to-eat bagels, and the Chopped Cheese is exceptional. The staff is friendly, and the service is top-notch, making it a recommended spot to stop in and grab a bite. Many regulars appreciate the simple setup and the fact that neighborhood sandwich shops like this are still around. The owner and staff consistently deliver friendly service, and the variety of food—from Philly cheese steaks, salami and cheese sandwiches, fries, to burgers and chicken sandwiches—has always satisfied visitors. A recent highlight was a pastrami with provolone, lettuce, onions, sauerkraut, mayo, and mustard, which was considered the best pastrami ever. Overall, this cozy deli remains a favorite for many.
