Went in for lunch yesterday. Ordered the ‘spicy crispy cutlet’. Turns out it was just a poorly cooked chicken cutlet drizzled in hot sauce. Gave me an upset stomach all night. Will never eat here again.

Been coming here for over a decade. Today was my last time. The guy who takes the grill orders must be suffering from memory loss because he's been getting my orders wrong or not putting them in at all. I wait 10 minutes only to find that they didn't even start the order. There was only me and 1 other person there this morning so there was zero reason why he is slacking. After he realized that he forgot my order, they tried to throw it together quickly giving me half cooked snotty eggs where the egg whites were still completely raw. Complete health hazard. This is the third or fourth time this has happened recently where he just didn't start my order as I order it and just has me standing there for 10-15 minutes like a dope. I made them remake the eggs. They gave me 2 tablespoons of potatoes with my order which is ridiculous as well. Good riddance.

Delicious food. I ordered fried spam, egg, and cheese on brioche bun. My boyfriend ordered a lox bagel. We enjoyed both!

reasonably priced, nice decor, delicious chicken soup (dark meat), and I felt welcomed ?

Elim Deli Cafe is a small place tucked away on Lexington Avenue. I would be reluctant to get food from Elim Deli for a long time, as it is not as aesthetically pleasing as other Delis, but I quickly learned that looks can be deceiving. After having been turned away from a breakfast food truck since there was no apple pay, my craving for an egg on a roll was at its peak. I finally came to Elim and I was eager to make the purchase. The egg on a roll with turkey bacon ** and cheese turned out to be only 6.50! Not only was it reasonably priced, it was also fairly tasty and a good portion size. The atmosphere is pretty standard for a deli in New York City -- narrow space, faint music, along with the hot and cold food bars. My sandwich was prepared in a relatively short period of time. The staff were nice and close to ensure I had napkins and condiments. :) I'll definitely be back for more breakfast sandwiches!

Delicious sandwiches served up fast. Reasonably priced for the city. Also lots of options I have not tried. A lot of egg sandwiches with spam for some reason. I get the #3 eggslut with no spam and it has always delivered.

Came in and order a regular cold sandwich and 2 drinks. Then he overcharges me for my items. This place is a money grab.??
