Delis near Kew Gardens

“If you know, you definitely know— this place is a neighborhood treasure where the bacon egg & cheese hits every single time.
Crispy bacon, soft roll, gooey cheese whether in a bagel or a bulkie—perfection in sandwich form.

But wait… plot twist: the real sleeper hit? Their Empanadas and Tacos!

Try the empanadas (trust me), and do not skip the fresh-made salsas. I could put that stuff on everything—and yes, I do, including my BEC. It’s that good. The chipotle one is out of this world!

✨ Highlights:
✔️ Legendary breakfast sandwiches
✔️ Salsas worth hoarding
✔️ Empanadas that taste like home
✔️ Always friendly, always fresh

This spot is everything a neighborhood deli should be—quick, cozy, consistent, and delicious. If you’re passing through Kew Gardens and don’t stop here, I’m judging a little 😁“

“Best Italian deli in NY hands down. End of story, no discussion. Get the Tonys special, get a panini, get the home cooked plates (chicken parm is amazing) , get anything... it is all amazing. The staff are the friendliest guys around and just hanging out there and listening to the convo's feels like you have been warped in to a Scorsese movie. Make sure to also try the frozen cappucino.“

“Great food, large portions and cheep“

“I ain’t from New York, so this sandwich shop was every bit what I figured the Big Apple’s all about. Alex had my order pegged soon as I strolled in—everything bagel sandwich, hot off the press. That bagel was fresh as a prairie mornin’, and the vibe in there? Just as lively. Even got to jaw a bit with his boy, which was a hoot.
Coffee was darn good, too!“

“Consistently excellent food - the quality of the ingredients used is unfailing and far higher than what I’ve come to expect from a sandwich shop. My favorite place to get sandwiches/wraps in the neighborhood.

I have been meaning to stop in for a drink and try their korean food in the speakeasy (so I can’t review to that portion of the menu but would expect greatness).“

“I love there chop cheese and really every sanwich but I hate ordering at night because the young guy with curly hair always has the phone on so that no calls go through. It's pretty annoying especially when you see there's no orders at that time. Overall love the business.“
