The staff were patient with us. No issues at all. And the food is great. Clean. Can't ask for better than that. I'm sorry to hear the negative reviews.“

“Best deli in the area and even in these hard times theyve managed to keep my family fed, while still maintaining our safety, by offering curbside to go. Awesome food (gotta try their new soups!), awesome people, and just really appreciate them giving a little piece of normalcy during these trying times.“

“I want to give a shout out to Rocco and team at 3 Sons Deli. I went there late today to order food for the grieving family. He had fresh salads and a tray of sandwiches ready in 15 minutes. This deli is a true gem in our town.“

“I just ordered the Ballfield-Chicken Cutlet, Bacon, Melted Swiss, Onion Rings, Russian dressing on Garlic Hero , It was the best Hero I have had in a long time. It was packed with Cutlets and was so filling I ate half then a few hours later ate the other half. I will def go back for another order soon.“

So good in fact that we went back inside to thank the owner Muhammad for one of the best breakfast sandwiches we ever had and trust me we're professionals. If you're in the vicinity of Holbrook market and deli don't pass it by. Thanks again Holbrook Market and Deli.“

“Just moved near here from Brooklyn. Amazing fun staff. amazing menu selection... great atmosphere ... awesome tasting food. SLAM DUNK wow I'm picky but this is great. I'm literally in the parking lot eating and couldn't leave without raving about it.“

“Pumpernickels Deli is an absolute gem—a small, cute spot that’s impressively clean with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff, mostly younger folks, are delightful, efficient, and incredibly organized. They’re also so sweet when answering questions, making the experience feel personal and inviting.

On this visit, I ordered a simple bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, and it was perfect. Sometimes it’s the basics that say the most, and Pumpernickels delivered. I’m also seriously considering trying their catering next because everything I saw looked so fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared.

This place easily outshines Bagel Express down the street. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend stopping by—you won’t be disappointed!“

“I traveled all the way from the Bronx to try chicharron with yuca. And the second time around no matter the time I order it, it’s always delicious and freshly deep fried. The Tropical Market II have great selection of Dominican eats. If You’re feeling soup, sancocho, arroz, yellow, white or empanadas .. It don’t matter you have choices. Come and check it out. TM II is the place to order and definitely don’t forget your merengue soda.“

“We catered my son’s Graduation party and the food was absolutely delish! Good portions, kind friendly staff My only disappointment was that when the food was delivered the eggplant was not hot at all … just barely warm, however it was tasty even if it wasn’t hot!“

“Wonderful people. I was lost and needed directions. The owners not only helped with directions, but brought out fresh iced cold water and orange juice bottles and INSISTED that I take at least one.
Helpful kind and generous ...lovely people♡

Parking: In front of the store.
There were about 10 parking spaces that I noticed.“

“I have had the pleasure of being a Thrifty customer for 44 years.
The owners are my friends, my family.
I have always loved them, their store, their food and their beer!
Recently, they have again shown their kindness, generosity and care for those in their community.
They graciously donated food to a family who lost their child after a lifelong illness.
Please support this kind family with your business!“

“I had a suprise 60 th and the Garage was excellent. Everyone loved the food and of course the main guy Big Frank Thank you again for everything“

“Lake Grove Deli excels in every way. I have lived in LakeGrove for 59 years and it has always been the go to place for all ages. When my children came home from college, their 1st morning trip was there. Their breakfast specials are renowned. Their sandwich offerings superb. The Staff complete the ambiance. This is a “must stop” that should not be missed‼️“

“I've been getting my salads from Lake Deli for many years. I use to live in Medford now in Bohemia. It's over 45 minutes round trip but this is the only place that has the best salads I've tried other Delis. Just not the same. My sister loved them too whenever I went to Pennsylvania I had to bring 2 or more lbs.of potatoes“

“If you want the ideal experience for Spanish deli's, THIS IS IT! Without a doubt they make some of the best chicken sandwiches money can buy in this entire area. The food is always made directly in front of you, the staff is really helpful and supportive, and the prices for the items are great. Come by here if you want quality food, a nice atmosphere and something near the school.“

“I've been addicted to their homemade macaroni salad since the late '90's at the Middle Island store. The Selden store is the same. Don't know how they make it but it's honestly, the best I ever had. I've told them, PLEASE do not change the formula or i'd have to go to Macaroni Salad rehab. lol“

“Really good breakfast sandwiches here. My go to is egg and cheese on a roll. I would just like it if they would have a dairy free milk like oat or almond for the coffee. They also should make sure they clean the grill and use a side that is specifically for cooking eggs only, one time my sandwich tasted like bacon and I am vegetarian.“

“First time going here and was greeted by the owners, very accommodating and friendly. They have a great selection of food and reasonably priced. They also have a great selection of fresh juiced fruits/vegetables. I had the BBQ Korean meal and it was delicious! Will definitely be coming back!“

“This place is home to whoever comes here. The food is home to whoever tastes it. This place is whole heartedly the best place on the island. Everything in one. This place makes the spirit and the soul happy.

Kid-friendliness: Family.“

“Whenever it is takeout the food is DELICIOUS, even though the owners are Dominican, the cooks are from Hidalgo, Mexico and their Mexican food is top quality and good seasoning and the price is regular, it really is not that expensive for how delicious it is. this!!! ??, I RECOMMEND IT!!!“

“Their Hero sandwiches are delicious! I’m always looking for a good hero place in Suffolk county, this is one I’ll definitely visit again, I can’t wait to try their other items too! The Turkey club sandwich is the main one I recommend!“

“My family and I have been going to this place when they opened Los hermanos. We constantly go there almost daily to get what we need and the people are nice. They now serve hot food and we just got breakfast sandwiches and they were awesome. Always going back.“

“We worked with Douglas to cater our company picnic this past Saturday. He was absolutely phenomenal! The food was delicious and he was able to grill everything fresh for us at the park. We will definitely be recommending Douglas & Simply Devine to all of our friends and family. Thank you, Douglas!“

“I have never had fresher food at a deli for individual meals and even the catered food. Nor have I ever seen a deli look or smell cleaner- I guess that's the owners nursing background. I highly recommend the kale salad rice pudding, catered heroes, salads.... I've never had party Heroes catered with such large portions of side salads. Simply da best“

“Best Food and Best Service on Long Island hands down! Can’t wait to go back 🙌“

“Excellent food and lovely service, can’t recommend enough!!“

“This place is clearly a daily stop for the locals from the second you walk in, and we ourselves planned our visit the night before so we could be hungry and prepared. If you're going to be in the area, it's a great choice.

They offer a wide selection, all kinds of classics ranging from delicious pupusas to made-to-order egg sandwiches. They even have the Arizona "extreme performance" energy drinks, something I've been meaning to try but couldn't find locally!

We got four pupusas (immaculate!!), a sort of sausage and pepper pasta, and a side of frijoles molidos. Everything absolutely hit the mark, and we're definitely going to come back to try their other dishes.

The workers here are efficient, kind, and know what they're doing. They maintain a wonderful selection of both prepared food and products, so regardless of who you bring here to eat, they're bound to find something up their alley.

All in all, you should absolutely give this place a shot if you get the chance! At the very least, you'll leave full and satisfied. Literally, you can't go wrong with this one, and it's an awesome diamond to find nowadays.“

“I went in to this establishment this morning, as I entered I first noticed that the place was clean, then as I observed further, they definitely were organized by how much product was out thus emphasizes freshness, the front counter girl was very outgoing and had a personality to match, so far so good, I ordered a hungryman breakfast hero, a cup of coffee, and drinks. The order was handled in a timely manner, and the hungryman was actually the way a hungryman was supposed to me made, kudos to this establishment, not only was my breakfast made correctly and efficiently, I got the old tradition of service with a smile. Thank you guys! Definitely will be seeing me in the near future.“

“I never heard of Setauket Gourmet until a month ago. I've been back numerous times, and try something new each time. great selection, great specials, and all of their food is delicious.“

“If you are hungry for lunch have Georgie make you a hard salami on a kaiser roll or for breakfast have Peter make you a double egg,bacon on a roll with side home fries and you'll leave a happy man. Great staff, clean deli and good prices. What else can you ask for! Oh wait, and fantasic food. ;o)
PS. Have Ray make you his famous roast beef hero, melted mozz,brown gravy,on hero. Trust me, it's amazing!!!“

“We got a chicken cutlet 3ft hero and deli wraps platter for an office party and everyone was raving about them. super easy to order and they delivered. we're already talking about ordering from them again.“

“I always loved the food here, especially the banana pancakes with a side of scrambled eggs. The coffee and omelets are also terrific. Homefries are tasty too. I was very sad when Danny's Deli a.k.a. Carman Street deli left doordash! I hope so much you guys will return to doordash so I can order some more super yummy breakfasts!“

“Excellent selection of quality foods.Sandwiches and Eggs all day!!! Great homemade iced tea and brownies. It is immediately obvious upon entering why they've been open so long. Quality and cleanliness are paramount to a successful food service business and they know it. Delis come and go,but this place is staying. Practically a historical landmark.“

“Firehouse Deli is one of my go to stops every time I visit home. BEC on a roll w/salt & pepper/ketchup!“

“Pupusas of different varieties. I always have a hard time finding pirque chicken, I don't eat pork and here they make them. The Pupusas are of the best quality from various restaurants nearby. It is similar to the flower recipe but less peppers and that is how I prefer.

I have come here several times over the years and I am never disappointed. Always delicious. And the people cooking , the severs are always full of smiles 👌🏾“

“Love this spot we’ve been ordering takeout from here for a few years. They have great Dominican food and awesome chimis sandwiches. My favorite is the bandeja de $50 with pechurina (fried chicken strips), chuleta (fried pork chops), Tostones (plantains), fried batata and longaniza (Dominican sausage) its fire. The food is very consistent and always delicious. I recommend giving them time since they’re always very busy. That is why we always order takeout. ?

Parking: Parking is easy to find either in front of the store on the sides. There’s parking as well and there’s a supermarket across the street with a large parking lot.“

“The food is delicious, fresh, fresh cooked and healthy. Sandwiches on fresh bread, tomatoes,lettuce, cooked and prepared with love. Served with a smile.“

“I dont know if its their signature sandwich but my folks have been taking me to The Wunderbar for breakfast sandwiches for years. I always get 2 eggs over medium with bacon and cheese. They are very consistent, always delicious and use about a pound of bacon per sandwich. I look forward to it every time I visit.“
