50 Best Delis near Whitestone

“I’ve been coming here since I was 10 years old, 24 years to be exact now, place gets better and better. Very home feel to the shop. A real staple in the community. Lovely family. If you want quality Italian food in Queens/NYC this is where you come to.“

“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!“

“Lenny’s is my favorite deli in Whitestone! The service and food are excellent! Highly recommend! Shout out to Lisa, who is like a sunshine whenever you walk in! She greets you with a warm smile, is very friendly and such a nice person!“

“I went out for lunch and found it to be a good choice. The food had excellent flavor, with well-seasoned dishes, and the service was swift, ensuring I was served promptly. This spot will definitely become a new favorite for our lunch breaks. I highly recommend trying the potato salad, which is creamy and flavorful, and the pernil (slow-roasted pork shoulder) that is tender and juicy.“

“Cherry Valley Deli & Grill in Whitestone is a true gem! After visiting several times, I can say their insanely large selection of heroes and sandwiches is unmatched. They’ve got all the classics plus some wild, creative combinations that somehow all work—and taste amazing. From the Con Ed hero to the FDNY, everything has been spot-on, and the best part is they’ll let you customize your order just how you like it. Always a delicious experience!“

“It was my first time trying cristina because most of the places were closed due to the blizzard and they were busy so I did had to wait a while. The sandwiches we ordered were really good, the portion was fulfilling.There was just one cashier girl handling calls back to back running back and forth but the wait was worth it in this weather.Will come back for sure.“

“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!“

“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.“

“The loaded fries are delicious. I know it looks crazy but this really hits the spot- they’re like hamburger fries. They are so generous with how much they make for you- I won’t have to worry about meals for a while. The good people here will make sure you eat well. SO GOOD!“

“Awesome italian deli with great bread and sandwhiches. They also have a small hot table w prepared foods and a small section of imported Italian goods and mets memorabilia. They own the bakery next door and I saw someone who ordered some amazing looking french toast and bacon egg n cheese on foccacia. They have a garden patio with seating and a fountain that you can sit at and enjoy. The garden area reminds me of my grandparents and elderly relatives. Love how the painted mural has the Bari mentioned.“

“Great food, large portions and cheep“

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

“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.“

“Always enjoy coming to this deli. Always being one of those late customers, coming in around 1-2am or close to when they closing. Always greeted, friendly guys working here, and the food. Even if I order the same thing as usual. Always the best! Will continue to come here and plus with more selection of snacks and treats. Don’t forget the cat. Yall should definitely give it a visit too!! ‼️💯“

“the best food and friendly spot ❤️“

“I’ve visited Gorkha Deli & Cafe multiple times, and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh, delicious, and made with care. My favorite is the chopped chicken sandwich, and the fries are amazing too. The staff are friendly and welcoming, which makes every visit a great experience. Definitely one of my favorite local spots!“

“Not too long ago I switched to this deli because my other deli was letting me down. Ever since I’ve been coming to here it never disappoints the food is always good. The service is very good very understanding, fast, nice. The store is very clean and you can find what you’re looking for very easily.“

“The staff is always welcoming and eager to please. their sandwiches are awesome and the prices are reasonable. Highly recommended. PS: They also cater to please!“

“everything is great“

“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 !“

“Got a bacon egg and cheese saltpepperhotsauce on a roll and a large coffee for $7 before tax.

Sandwich was fine, nothing exceptional, light bacon, but it was $5 so no complaints. She put a lot of hot sauce which I like, some might not.

I asked how much it would be to add a hash brown and they said $3 extra. For a hash brown? Maybe they thought a side of hash browns or something idk but 3 bucks for a fried potato patty was kind of insane to me so I obviously skipped it.

Also, the coffee had so much milk. I asked for “just a little little bit of milk” while holding up my pinched fingers as I always do, and this coffee is creamy my dude.

While waiting for my order, an older Italian man came in and asked for a small coffee, and he said “please not too much milk just small milk” and the guy said ok but the Italian man said again, kind of intensely, please not too much milk. At the time I didn’t think anything of it, I was kinda like chill pops I think he heard you, but after sipping my coffee in the car I think the dude just puts way too much milk in the coffee and I get where Nonno is coming from.

Anyway random bodega I hit while passing through and needed a quick breakfast.

Cheap decent no real complaints. Would rather the coffee have been black tho.“

“I’ve been to Bombom a few times now and it’s always a great experience. I recently got two sandwiches from here and they were really good, made just right. The cashier is always friendly and welcoming, which makes a big difference. They also carry a variety of snacks, and they’re happy to accommodate special requests as best they can. Overall, it’s a solid local deli with good food and great service. Highly recommend! They also have a Cat she’s awesome and friendly .“

“I agree with everything you said there’s a really delicious wherever you eaten there and even service and everything God bless them“

“I’ve lived in the community since 2007 and this deli is hands down the best in the neighborhood. The selection is always on point, from snacks and drinks to those random household items you suddenly need at the worst time. Now at 30, I can honestly say there’s no other deli I trust or go to for food. Consistently reliable, well-stocked, and a staple in the community.“

“It may look like an ordinary deli, but their food is top-notch. Got me a plate with eggplant parm, rice, pasta alla vodka, stuffed chicken, Brussels sprouts . Everything was delicious.

For Jacky, who left a one-star review -

TGTG clearly states that not all stores provide bags and utensils.“

“I was making sauce with my tomato harvest and wanted some quality suasages to pair with it so stopped in. The homemade sausages were fantastic! The standard grocery store will always have a place, but honestly its places like this that add character to a neighborhood and make cooking a meal an exciting adventure! Highly recommend!“

“This place is amazing to say the least! Just celebrated my daughter's 1st bday party and entrusted Chris Super Deli with the catering and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The Customer service was great, the price was awesome, and the food was perfect! So much food half the party took to go plates. How'd I get so lucky to find these guys? Will definitely be using their catering services again. 5 STARS and well deserved!“

“Good is always freshly made and in a timely manner. Place is very clean and the owners and other staff are very friendly. If you are ever in the area I would highly suggest stopping by for a bite to eat!!!“

“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!“

“I’m new to the Neighbourhood, but I just found my new spot. Tommy’s deli Is a nice convenient and well Established. The owner Angela was very nice very respectful and the way she ran her business and the entire presentation is a five out of five. It’s A+. She’s a great individual.
More so I had a dilemma and I just casually run it up with her, A stranger that just met while she was making me a sandwich
She gave me amazing advice and she made me feel a whole lot better About myself
The drinks and the food that I ordered from the place were delicious and I will find myself going there again.“

“This place is absolutely wonderful..I mean everything about it... it's like you really are a kid in a candy store... it's like you want a little bit of everything.....the quality & flavors never disappoint.... their recipes must be priceless...the staff is amazing and caring...the place is spotless... you'll see for yourself...I wish them a great many, many years of good luck and success 😊“

“Burger Baby by Wonder absolutely exceeded my expectations! I had the truffle burger, and it was incredible perfectly cooked, so juicy, and packed with flavor. You can really tell they use quality ingredients. Wonder also has cookies that were just as amazing. My son absolutely loved them and couldn’t stop talking about how good they were. It’s definitely a place we’ll be coming back to.
I highly recommend Burger Baby“

“My first time at Wonder was exceptional. Was recommended it by a friend has no idea what I was walking into. Food was exceptional - I got the Tejas Barbecue brisket meal. The place was clean, people were kind. First time here and I’ll definitely bb back.“

“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!“

“The food here is very good and reasonably priced. It’s clean, bright, and has lots of menu options to choose from with new specials ask the time. The workers are very friendly and make the trip there enjoyable. Highly recommend this deli!“

“Excellent tuna! Service was really friendly.“

“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.“

“I bought a slice of cheesecake and a slice of apple pie, and I honestly wouldn’t recommend them to anyone who’s currently on a diet.

The moment I left the deli, I decided to take just one bite of the cheesecake. Well… that plan failed immediately. I couldn’t stop eating it. Then I thought I’d try just one bite of the apple pie too. I took a bite, put it back in the bag, and within seconds I was reaching for it again. Before I knew it, I was walking down the street happily eating the entire slice.

So, if you’re trying to stick to a diet, consider this your warning! But if you’re looking for delicious Polish desserts, definitely stop by, support this local business, and treat yourself. Everything was absolutely worth it.“

“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!!!!!!“

“yum yum....nom nom.... two tries. two salads. both awesome. i'll be back again and again :)))“

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

“Had a fantastic meal here and was genuinely impressed by the attention to detail throughout the experience. The menu offers a great selection, making it difficult to choose just one dish. I went with the Salmon Poke Bowl, and it exceeded expectations. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the flavors complemented each other perfectly, and the portion size was generous without feeling heavy. Every element felt carefully prepared, highlighting the quality of the ingredients. A spot that's well worth visiting, and I'll definitely be back.“

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

“My first time at Wonder was exceptional. Was recommended it by a friend has no idea what I was walking into. Food was exceptional - I got the Tejas Barbecue brisket meal. The place was clean, people were kind. First time here and I’ll definitely bb back.“

“Catered this weekend - Italian Chicken Cutlet Supreme was awesome. Fresh and delicious. Stuffed cherry peppers were a hit. Salads were amazing but Mediterranean salad was my favorite. Pecan ring with whipped cream was gone in minutes. Thank you Mark (and Milton) for a delicious afternoon remembering my dad with family.“

“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.“

“mmmm so good the good is ????????“
