50 Best Delis near Great Neck

“the hot food was alright, a little too salty for my preference but i recommend everyone go here 1-2x at least. the service is absolutely amazing, the workers are friendly and charming. the coffee is also delicious even though i usually don't like to drink coffee. the cashier always gets a little bit crowded with nowhere to wait for your food though.“

“Was away from NYC for a long time and could not find a basic BEC anywhere. Got one w a small coffee from this teeny tiny diner while waiting for a ride and it was a home run. Don’t be fooled by the Italian name! This woman makes a classic NYC BEC and was super nice—what a welcome back home.“

“I can't say enough about this kosher deli. The Corned Beef is absolutely mouth-watering and of course the hot dogs are second to none. One of the best corned beef sandwiches I've ever had also the matzo ball soup is delicious just like grandma's. I highly recommend this kosher deli for anyone who's in the Great Neck area. Also the owner Joe is a perfect gentleman and I have eaten there a few times already and if I'm in the area this is my go to spot to eat for lunch.“

“This place is 🔥 has the best tasting food in all of great neck! It’s a take out deli kind of place with lots of different types of Spanish food. I ordered oxtail stew with roasted pork, and a side of shrimp salad/ceviche (the texture and flavors are on point). High quality food, good tasting, cooked with a lot of heart! The kind the your grandma makes. They even make the hot sauce in house… I really liked the mild green one, but the red spicy one is great as well! I think they do catering as well… I’m super excited about this find!“

“I rarely leave reviews but this deli is so underrated! The ladies are always so sweet and accommodating. everything tastes so fresh and you can basically get anything you want for a very fair price. Freshly made salads, juices, sandwiches, wraps, paninis, and soup“

“I’ve been coming here since I was 10 years old, 24 years to be exact now, place gets better and better. Very home feel to the shop. A real staple in the community. Lovely family. If you want quality Italian food in Queens/NYC this is where you come to.“

“Awesome service and delicious food. definitely 5 star Deli“

“10 stars!! I ordered full trays of meatballs, penne with red sauce, chicken francese, garden salad and half tray of eggplant for my baby shower. My family and friends loved the food and everyone asked where the food was catered from. Thank you so much for the delicious food, We’ll be ordering again !“

“The food here is very good and reasonably priced. It’s clean, bright, and has lots of menu options to choose from with new specials ask the time. The workers are very friendly and make the trip there enjoyable. Highly recommend this deli!“

“I wish you could put pictures because the picture of this Grand Slam that I got from there today. Yeah, it's where the million words huge will cut meat. Just everything about it.“

“everything is great“

“I've been coming from Orange County every week for the last 2 years to watch my grandsons a few days each week. We make it part of our day to take a walk and always stop in for a snack or a sandwhich. Sam and his wife are lovely, friendly people and always make a fuss over the babies. The store is immaculate and the Korean food is not to be missed. The Bulgogi hero is my favorite go to sandwhich....Highly recommend !“

“My son and I went here after I did my research to find the best delis in Hell’s Kitchen, and this was consistently the top answer. We had limited time in NYC, so every place we visited had to count, and Sergimmo’s did not disappoint. I had a Caesar salad, while my son had a Pasta al Pomodoro e Basilico. Both were great, and so was the shop owner’s treatment of us, obviously not from around the area. Next time we’re in NYC, we’ll be back!“

“the best food and friendly spot ❤️“

“Fresh food … always delicious. We ordered chicken parmesan for dinner. Everyone loved it. Chicken was moist and flavorful! Side of eggplant rollatini was perfect! Crowd favorite! Highly recommend!“

“After numerous attempts with different places, I finally found a place that satisfied my wife's craving for a GOOD, FRESH-TASTING chicken cutlet sandwich. Chicken was freshly breaded & grilled upon my order, great portion, no complaints. Service was great too, the ladies working there were very friendly & welcoming. I'd definitely go back.“

“Called in for breakfast sandwich. Told the guy I’ll be there in about 5 minutes. When I arrived only one customer in the store and they didn’t even start it. Very disappointed since it is my last day in New York and had to rush to catch the train so I left without anything. love their breakfast sandwiches but they should be mindful when a customer calls in advance it’d be nice to have it ready upon arrival. What really disappoints is that this wasn’t the first time this happened. However I’ll leave 4 stars despite my unfortunate experience because the food does taste great.“

“I’ve lived in the community since 2007 and this deli is hands down the best in the neighborhood. The selection is always on point, from snacks and drinks to those random household items you suddenly need at the worst time. Now at 30, I can honestly say there’s no other deli I trust or go to for food. Consistently reliable, well-stocked, and a staple in the community.“

“Great guys behind the counter! With a wonderful young lady helping cash out!!!“

“Great deli! Great variety, fast, and always clean! Highly recommend their French vanilla ice coffee and peanut butter Overnight Oats, salad bar, and rice pudding. Sandwiches are also quality. Update: Ordered a nice custom Italian style sandwich, and Tommy did it right!“

“Catered this weekend - Italian Chicken Cutlet Supreme was awesome. Fresh and delicious. Stuffed cherry peppers were a hit. Salads were amazing but Mediterranean salad was my favorite. Pecan ring with whipped cream was gone in minutes. Thank you Mark (and Milton) for a delicious afternoon remembering my dad with family.“

“Came to New York from Florida and was on the hunt for an authentic deli for the famous BECSPK and came across brothers deli.
Upon walking in, the young man at the register was dealing with a customer fighting over 5 cents trying to scam the store. I watched it all unfold. The worker kept his cool, stayed firm on his response and professional.
Even after the customer left he didn’t complain about the interaction! I like that!
We joked and talked about visiting home ( NY) after being away for many years and the nostalgic candies we saw waiting.
Needless to say, we came back almost daily for their breakfast. Absolutely perfect, they accommodated our allergy request and was greeted with a smile and nice conversation each time. There is something special about knowing your value in a store and they definitely made us feel welcome, for a little corner deli, They are making a nice footprint in the community!
We would love to comeback and say hi during our next visit!
PS! Thanks for the KitKats!!! You guys are great!!“

“Places like this are why I say Long Island NY has the best food in the world. The staff looks and acts like they're focused on quality food and service. The deli itself is clean and organized. Get one of their sandwiches (I recommend corned beef) and for about 12 bucks you have a fine lunch or dinner.“

“very good food The best service“

“It's the best deli in Mt. Vernon. Staff is always accommodating and the food is the best. The delivery guys are always fast and friendly. My advice is to go try it and find out for yourself. You won't be let down. Try the Pete's wrap or the chicken tacos! Amazing!“

“I love Sal’s. I have not been here in a while and I stopped in today and got the Sal’s special and an iced tea and it was fantastic. The food is always excellent here. Breakfast or lunch, you will always get a great meal. Andrew is such a nice guy. You are always greeted with respect here. If you want a great meal with really great service, do yourself a favor and check this place out.“

“BEC was perfect, and excellent customer service“

“Got a bacon egg and cheese saltpepperhotsauce on a roll and a large coffee for $7 before tax.

Sandwich was fine, nothing exceptional, light bacon, but it was $5 so no complaints. She put a lot of hot sauce which I like, some might not.

I asked how much it would be to add a hash brown and they said $3 extra. For a hash brown? Maybe they thought a side of hash browns or something idk but 3 bucks for a fried potato patty was kind of insane to me so I obviously skipped it.

Also, the coffee had so much milk. I asked for “just a little little bit of milk” while holding up my pinched fingers as I always do, and this coffee is creamy my dude.

While waiting for my order, an older Italian man came in and asked for a small coffee, and he said “please not too much milk just small milk” and the guy said ok but the Italian man said again, kind of intensely, please not too much milk. At the time I didn’t think anything of it, I was kinda like chill pops I think he heard you, but after sipping my coffee in the car I think the dude just puts way too much milk in the coffee and I get where Nonno is coming from.

Anyway random bodega I hit while passing through and needed a quick breakfast.

Cheap decent no real complaints. Would rather the coffee have been black tho.“

“Started to come here 16 years ago because it was convenient (worked close by) food was Always good! Fresh bacon and sausages are Delicious. Yesterday I got rained out and decided to stop by my old stomping grounds for breakfast. My breakfast sandwich was top notch! Great place, I'LL BE BACK“

“I just got back from a trip to NYC and my brother-in-law treated us to dinner from The Halal Guys in Midtown and I knew it would be good since it was the only food cart with a block-long line after midnight. In fact I liked it so much I wanted to see if I could get something similar nearby... and I found it! I got the chicken and lamb over rice combo and while it wasn't quite the same it was still very good. The only difference is it didn't come with the pita bread and the white sauce tasted a bit different, but not bad. It also has more veggies so more "crunch" but next time I'm going to ask to leave them off (I just don't like the crunch...). I'm very happy to have a local option at a good price and generous portions. Thank you Sam's.“

“I was working locally and decided to grab lunch from Wheeler Deli after reading the reviews. The deli is smaller and quaint but has a large case of Boars Head meats, salads, and desserts. I ordered an American Hero, sides of macaroni salad, and potato salad, and a piece of the banana bread. They got right to making my order and the wait time was less than 5 minutes. My sandwich was fresh, crisp, and delicious. The salads were creamy and had great flavor. The banana bread was outstanding; dense and sweet and flavorful. The total for food and a drink was less than $25 which was a great value. I’ll be back.“

“Great sandwiches! friendly staff! We wish you the best!“

“The food I bought was so good!! Cannot wait to go back for more. The people were extremely nice and very helpful.“

“I go to school right here at Iona so I’ve tried the place a few times and I have to say every time it’s been great. The owner is to the point but super nice. I would highly recommend coming by and grabbing a sandwich here. The #21 in particular was really good. Definitely come by if you’re around. It can be a little busy so definitely“

“They say never judge a book by its cover ..
If it wasn’t for my friend who took me I would never have tasted a super tasty delicious toasted bagel with running eggs, melted cheese and extra grilled bacon topped with black peppers …

Just yummy yummy for my fat, well fatter tummy as I ended up asking for another one …

Super great and friendly staff made the whole experience even better.

Thanks for taking me there Jay …
Let’s go again :))

And so we did go again as I had to have that tasty bagel again. Yes I ended up having two more …

And I went one last time as I was leaving Kew Gardens and this time I had two more bagels added with fresh tomorrows and avocado …

So yummy …“

“Great mozzarella bread cheese sausages salads. Owners are wonderful cheerful. Neighbors stopover and great coffee smiles abound“

“Great sandwiches. Good staff. Great hot food. But the prices are unaffordable and at this point as much as I love the food, I won't return ever. Ordered 2 heros. Philly cheese steak and a chicken cutlet hero fresh mutz. 1 order of lasagna about 5 inch square and a tiny rice pudding.
Total price 55 dollars.
Sigh. Smh.
Great store. Great food.
But like I said , absolutely unaffordable
Good things never last.
I won't return.“

“Everything this at seven street gourmet deli is amazing and the food is delicious the staff is so friendly and welcoming“

“I absolutely love this spot! AzA Deli & Grill has become my go-to deli in Queens — every visit is consistently great. The food is fresh, flavorful, and always prepared just the way I like it. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Whether I’m grabbing a quick bite on the go or picking up something delicious for later, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend to anyone in the neighborhood looking for tasty, affordable deli classics with excellent service! 🍔🥪🥤“

“Delicious heroes made with care. Great service. Nice owners“

“I absolutely loved this place. I work nearby, so I always love going to this place. The owner is nice, and the food is pretty good. My only complaint is that I had Haitian Chicken over Rice, but the rice tasted unwashed ruining the dish (the chicken was still good). Other than that, I loved every other option. Especially the Italian sandwich. Plus, it's pretty affordable for lunch breaks ?“

“I stopped by this place by chance because I was hungry, and I’m really glad I did. The food was very good. While I can’t say for sure that everything on the menu is amazing, based on the appearance and the flavor of what I ordered, I’m confident that the rest of the food is delicious as well. The staff is very kind and attentive, and the portion size is generous and satisfying. I would definitely come back. 🙂🤝🏻“

“The soup , sandwich’s,the brownies and cheese omelets“

“Who is the best deli in Elmont and will continue to be the best deli“

“You guys did it again! I needed a lot of food for a welcome back teachers event and with only two days notice you guys delivered!!! Literally…food was delicious and delivered on time. The salads (macaroni, potato, Cole slaw) that came along with the order were on point! For reference we had the Marco Polo, siciliano, pork sliders, and the mini sandwiches ( one full tray of vegetarian) EVERYONE came over to us to say how delicious everything was. Thank you Moe and Mike and the Barino’s team!“

“always friendly. everything delicious and fresh“

“I went in for the first time 8/15/22 they were very nice to me I told them it was my first time in the store and that saw their reviews on a great sandwich and I told them I would like a Italian hero with a lot of meat they didn’t disappoint on that at the end I introduced myself as Ray and to let them know I just want to let you know who I am because I’ll be back again as a steady customer and Carlos introduced himself this place is heaven thanks for being nice appreciated the service.“

“Deli quetzal tiene comida rica es un lugar muy acogedor,el servicio es increíble son muy amables con los clientes.Tienen todo típico de comida centro americana,todos los platos son deliciosos.100% recomendable“

“Joe always exceeds expectations. I got a BLT on a wedge that was just phenominal. Some dingbat gave him a 1 star because he apparently used a microwave to heat something. EVERY deli does that. Joe always goes above and beyond to make any sandwich a masterpiece.“
