50 Best Delis near Whitestone

“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.“

“My son and I went here after I did my research to find the best delis in Hell’s Kitchen, and this was consistently the top answer. We had limited time in NYC, so every place we visited had to count, and Sergimmo’s did not disappoint. I had a Caesar salad, while my son had a Pasta al Pomodoro e Basilico. Both were great, and so was the shop owner’s treatment of us, obviously not from around the area. Next time we’re in NYC, we’ll be back!“

“This deli has been around for over 40 years, maybe even 50. There were 3 sisters who each had a deli on Queens , and their German recipes lived on after they retired. (Though I admit one of the sisters Helga, of Expressway Deli off Bell Blvd and Horace Harding, but they have been gone 15 years now. Her potato salad would travel to visit family and friends 250 or more miles packed in Ice. )“

“After a long awaited trip to the store, it did NOT disappoint! I ordered The Casa, fresh mozzarella and burrata. Life may never be the same and I’ll be making more trips to the Bronx for the best cheese I’ve ever had!“

“My local spot for everything. The way Jason Chevo, Leo and the guys have made this not only a neighborhood staple, but a place that encourages all to come and converse, hang out etc. They have a special way of looking out for everyone in the neighborhood, from the young ones to the old. Every place should aspire to the be reaching for the bar that I feel like they’ve set“

“Great food, large portions and cheep“

“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.“

“It's always a great experience going in the the food is terrific 5 stars is an insult they need ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I'm going back tomorrow..

“Five stars for Good Neighbor Queens in the Falchi Building. Best cold brew in the area. This place is a vibe and I love it.“

“the best food and friendly spot ❤️“

“Forget bout everywhere else. Joe’s is the place to go. Mozzarella is the best - light airy milky and when you ask for unsalted you get unsalted. Only problem is that they run out of items if it’s later in the day. So go early.“

“My wife wanted to have my 50th birthday party catered, she was looking on City Island where we reside but the prices were out of control. I reminded her of Tinos, where we have in the past got 3 foot heroes and antipasto platters. We called and that was all she wrote! Delivery on time and the food was out of this world!! Anna hooked us up. We will be going with Tinos deli from now on. Thank you so much!!!! Everything was Amazing!!!!!!“

“Best deli in LIC! Never disappoints Always fresh!“

“I was working locally and decided to grab lunch from Wheeler Deli after reading the reviews. The deli is smaller and quaint but has a large case of Boars Head meats, salads, and desserts. I ordered an American Hero, sides of macaroni salad, and potato salad, and a piece of the banana bread. They got right to making my order and the wait time was less than 5 minutes. My sandwich was fresh, crisp, and delicious. The salads were creamy and had great flavor. The banana bread was outstanding; dense and sweet and flavorful. The total for food and a drink was less than $25 which was a great value. I’ll be back.“

“First time trying out , after seeing such great reviews and delicious pictures of the food, I was excited . I played it safe and got a BEC with avocado & it was sooo good! There was love in that sandwich and I tasted it . Super sweet and welcoming ladies , I can’t wait to go back and try something new“

“I wish you could put pictures because the picture of this Grand Slam that I got from there today. Yeah, it's where the million words huge will cut meat. Just everything about it.“

“I literally have been at this deli since they opened. I love them. They know their customers/remember their regulars. They are soooo nice and welcoming. It's a small deli but they got snacks for days ? I will literally go to them over any other deli.“

“Fresh food … always delicious. We ordered chicken parmesan for dinner. Everyone loved it. Chicken was moist and flavorful! Side of eggplant rollatini was perfect! Crowd favorite! Highly recommend!“

“Vegan food that makes love to your mouth! My first time having Jerked Seitan. OMG! Definitely worth getting with the avocado.“

“everything is great“

“Second time here and my sandwich was delicious. The deli guys do a great job and they sound happy working there. The owner pays attention to your order and chats with you in a friendly way . I will keep coming for my early sandwich at 6:45 am.“

“This deli functions and operates beautifully 😍 I love coming in here the employees are great from the deli guys to the counter guys THEY ARE ALL GREAT,NICE SERVICES AND NICE EXPERIENCE...“

“I come to this deli every day(Now Aarons Deli and Grill). The sandwiches are off the hook. The only thing better than the great food are the owners and people who work there. Just finished my favorite hero, the J train stop, Be sure to go try it.“

“Awesome service and delicious food. definitely 5 star Deli“

“What an awesome find! I was staying at a hotel nearby for one day. I was told about Sal’s deli and stopped in for breakfast and a coffee. Ended up getting a sandwich for later as well. Everything was delicious!
The staff is so friendly and made sure I was taken care of. I swear he put an entire pound of cold cuts on my sandwich! Lol
Sal’s deli is a hidden gem. I’ll be back every time I’m traveling through NY.“

“I've been coming from Orange County every week for the last 2 years to watch my grandsons a few days each week. We make it part of our day to take a walk and always stop in for a snack or a sandwhich. Sam and his wife are lovely, friendly people and always make a fuss over the babies. The store is immaculate and the Korean food is not to be missed. The Bulgogi hero is my favorite go to sandwhich....Highly recommend !“

“Places like this are why I say Long Island NY has the best food in the world. The staff looks and acts like they're focused on quality food and service. The deli itself is clean and organized. Get one of their sandwiches (I recommend corned beef) and for about 12 bucks you have a fine lunch or dinner.“

“Solid Queens NY style Bodega, with solid prices. They season their tomatoes. An oft overlooked game changer when it comes to sandwiches.

Their bagel lox was delicious, bagels had a chew but were still easy to eat, and the Chopped Cheese was exceptional.

Add in the exceptional service and friendly staff? Big reccommend on this place. Stop in and grab a bite to eat.“

“Basic deli, similar to a convenient store. Super friendly staff, fresh made EVERYTHING. Incredibly close to Yankee Stadium. Great place to stop for a quick sandwich before the games. They also serve a great selection of daily hot foods. Try the SPECIAL herbed oil.“

“Yeah, I'll definitely be back. The food is really good 👍. I am satisfied but not sluggish. They are so nice with awesome souls. I am super proud of them. My experience was pleasant, and my sister loved them. That's a plus. I see why they had me 😃 laughing. Videos and photos below prices fluctuate. Bless up.

“From the sandwiches to the smoothies; The fresh pan dulce that my son loves to the variety of Hispanic products in stock.. best deli in the area. Service is always quick and friendly & the music is always bumping. True community deli right here“

“I just got back from a trip to NYC and my brother-in-law treated us to dinner from The Halal Guys in Midtown and I knew it would be good since it was the only food cart with a block-long line after midnight. In fact I liked it so much I wanted to see if I could get something similar nearby... and I found it! I got the chicken and lamb over rice combo and while it wasn't quite the same it was still very good. The only difference is it didn't come with the pita bread and the white sauce tasted a bit different, but not bad. It also has more veggies so more "crunch" but next time I'm going to ask to leave them off (I just don't like the crunch...). I'm very happy to have a local option at a good price and generous portions. Thank you Sam's.“

“always friendly. everything delicious and fresh“

“Wonderful assortment of sandwiches... Great staff Highly recommend“

“I love this place, I've been going here ever since I was a kid and everything about it is perfect! The ambience, the employees, the locals, this is a New York Bagel place at heart. Not to mention, the bagels, pastries and cream cheeses are incredible. I've moved away and yet make an effort to come here every single time I come back!“

“We were staying at the nearby hotels. During a walk around the area found this deli. Wanted something for breakfast, so we went inside and got breakfast sandwiches. They were very good and the prices were very reasonable. Workers were very friendly. The deli also sells drink and household items.“

“Hey order the George salad tuna salad platter with tomatoes cucumbers red peppers and don't forget the banana peppers won't stop shop the best and the great city and you can add the potato sticks for that extra zears God bless you Joey and family we love you 40 years of loving“

“Great sandwiches staff very friendly“

“Excellent take out home cooked meal style food. I love and buy the salmon piece which is huge and is $8. I also get chicken cutlets for the kids. The cabbage and side items also look good but I just add at home a side and the meal is done. Also the coffee is my favorite in the neighborhood. Muffins melt in my mouth particularly the corn and chocolate chip. They should have more chocolate chip or maybe not bc I would buy and eat it more. There food is great home cooked style for a FAIR price. I’m so glad they are in my neighborhood.“

“B&B Deli is an absolute gem! The food is always fresh, the sandwiches are on point, and the service is quick and consistent. Whether you’re in the mood for breakfast or lunch, they’ve got something for everyone.

Huge shout-out to Hassan and Mina — they’re not only great at what they do, but they’ve got amazing personalities and will definitely make you laugh. It’s more than just grabbing food — it’s a good vibe every time you walk in.

Can’t stop by in person? They’re also available on DoorDash, so you can enjoy your favorites delivered right to your door. Highly recommend B&B Deli for top-notch service, great food.“

“il gusto siciliano a New York e non solo“

“Genuine old school Italian deli! This place is awesome, clean, and well organized. The staff is friendly and accommodating. We were going to split an Italian hero. My son said, "You better get another." Because he finished it! It was delicious! Can't wait to go back!“

“Great sandwiches. Good staff. Great hot food. But the prices are unaffordable and at this point as much as I love the food, I won't return ever. Ordered 2 heros. Philly cheese steak and a chicken cutlet hero fresh mutz. 1 order of lasagna about 5 inch square and a tiny rice pudding.
Total price 55 dollars.
Sigh. Smh.
Great store. Great food.
But like I said , absolutely unaffordable
Good things never last.
I won't return.“

“The owner is very friendly and kind. He ordered chicken and beef burrito. The ingredients are very rich, delicious and cheap. After the burrito is wrapped with the filling, it will be fried on a hot plate and it will be crispy. Taste. Best burritos I've had during my trip to the US!“

“Our go-to place every time we visit Long Island. While their sandwiches are great, I’ve gotta say that their sausage is fantastic- it’s a toss up between the hot Italian or the fennel sausage, both are made in house. Wish I had a place like this near where I live in New Jersey.“
