Fantastic little nook of a spot in midtown. Staff was incredibly friendly and the Italian sandwich was delicious. One of those places you won’t forget. 5 Star 👍

Absolute legend. Such a nice guy and amazing pastrami sandwich. I come to this place whenever I come to new york. When you eat the pastrami sandwich it feels like an artistic experience. Incredible mix of flavors.

This place is such a find!! My family and I just wanted some good, well priced sandwiches, and we feel like we struck gold with Shamas Deli! The owner was so kind, and the sandwiches are top notch. Every time we make the trip up from Atlanta, we will be sure to stop by!

Sooo good! I had the chicken salad and Italian hero sandwich! Everything was made fresh and with love! I was treated like family upon the second I stepped into the place. Half of the sandwich will fill you up and save the rest for later. This is a must have when you come to NY!

One of the best sandwiches in the city! I've been coming to this place for over 6 years and never disappoints!
Super unique experience in midtown. One quality pastrami sandwich that was decently priced and had good amounts of meat in it. I asked the owner to make it the way he likes and it was delicious. The space is tiny! Only enough room for about 2 people to stand. It was also a little hidden away right next to the parking garage. Seriously recommend.
