4 Best 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 😁“

“We had a great time at the deli today. The fresh ingredients were really impressive. We especially loved all the artisanal cheeses and cured meats. The sandwiches were huge and super flavorful. We totally recommend this place for a satisfying and yummy meal.“

“My wife and I live in the neighbourhood. I stopped in with her for the first time yesterday. Picked up lamb over rice to go. We walked three blocks to our apartment. The food was still hot. All items were fresh. The portion was generous. This is the best lamb over rice I've had since moving back to New York two years ago. The establishment is clean, bright, attractive, and well-stocked. I will be stopping in here some more this week to explore the options and to develop a repertoire of favorite items to buy.“

“My friends, staff and I have been to this place and that a friend and I ordered a protein shake which included peanut butter, soy milk, and many others. The drink was wonderful and tasty. The service was wonderful, and the atmosphere was many people waiting in line to order or to pay.“
