A good place for a quick bite. Nothing fancy, but they are open early and have a good selection. Pre-work spot to fill the belly.

This is the place I’ve been looking for since I moved to the area. Everything is food as you could make at home, which is just what I wanted. I go here for breakfast regularly since the pricing is good and the food is filling. If you want to wow yourself, this probably isn’t what you are looking for. If you want somewhere you will likely keep coming back each week and would put into a regular rotation, then look no further. Family owned business, they make the food in front of you. If the wait time is too much for you, order ahead. I’ll continue to give this business my money, they deserve it.

My Son was not so happy with his roast beef hero. Wait time was okay. A little long for a quick hero nothing complicated. Price ehhhhh I guess its okay had the hero been up to my Son's standard of good.Parking: Prepare to possibly walk a little bit.

A fairly reasonable deli with all of the basics for an order to go or, if you choose, to sit at the basic tables inside.

Lived next door for a year (Reserve at Eisenhower apartments). LOVE this place and sad to leave it behind. Breakfast and lunch at an amazing price. Great vegetarian options. Slices of the MOST delicious chocolate cake (other flavors too, and pie, but I've only tried the chocolate!).Great to pop in when I need some eggs or milk or a banana.Can't get enough of this lovely spot. The staff are so friendly and efficient and cook delicious food.

Had a chicken, carrot, potato, and pea with orange sauce dish. Macaroni and broccoli salad. Reasonable price. Fresh and delicious no problems.

Great place to eat. Have been several times and all meals cooked to custom order. Great food. Great price!
Been here a number of times when visiting a friend that lives in a nearby apartment complex. I live in CT so I only visit for a few days as a mini vacation but I always look forward to Deli For the Belly. I've never been disappointed with their food and I'm always grateful that it is one of the more affordable places to eat in Alexandria. Even the cakes are delicious and I don't regret buying a slice. I highly recommend getting breakfast or lunch here. I'm going to be genuinely dejected when my friend moves in a few months :( and I only got to grab food there once this weekend :(

This is one of those hole in the wall places that you love and have as one of your regulars. Great service and really good food. They have several bakery options too and serve breakfast. Great find and I'll definitely be back!

Great food, reasonable prices, not a chain, and brilliant name. Pastrami was excellent. Like that you get your own drinks.
