A spectacular little Italian sandwich shop. Great place to go sip some wine and relax. Delicious sandwiches, and the service is impeccable.

Stopped by A Deli for the first time today and I am so glad I did. There was a very friendly gentleman behind the counter who greeted me immediately upon entering. I ordered an 8in Crazy Italian. While I waited I looked at the selection of italian food and wines. This place is awesome and the sandwiches, even better. I didn't think to take a picture because I devoured it so quickly. Will definitely be back!

OK, before I start. I'm a deli guy. No, I'm not Jewish or even from NY. I just frigging love subs, heros, whatever you wanna call em. So let's dig in. I had high hopes for this place. It's 12 mins away. Let's start with the website and menu. Perfection. Best deli website I've seen perhaps ever, under Katz's. The pictures give a good idea what the assembled product will be. Choices made and off you go. Order online or in person.
So I walked in on a Sunday. Place wasn't busy at all. Its authentic deli shop, which also sells wine. Sorta odd really. It's a bit cramp on walkability in the store. Limited seating while waiting.
Order 5 items. I tend to go all out on a new joint I visit. I wanna find the best.
Ordered Super Big A. 17 bucks mind you so my expectations was high. In one word. Eh. Next ordered Hot Pastrami, 8 inch. It was good, no real complaints. Portions however seemed a bit stingy. 12 bucks for this. Next Jersey Boy 12 bucks. - I did so being it's close to the Italian but with peppers which some what saved the sandwich. Next Bacon Double Cheddar cheesesteak. Picture looks good, but result was extremely disappointing. Missing ingredients, portion size was perhaps 2 sheets of steak'ums. You know what I'm talking about. And this thing was 12 bucks? I was left feeling jipped.
Perhaps it was the day. It was Sunday midday. So thought I'd try it again. Well sadly... It wasn't the day or the staff. Unsatisfying results. To which I know they could do better if they tried. Just due to your in Fairfax, step it up and represent. There's another deli off rt 29 which serves better product. In Herdon - "The Deli" still reins top dawg in my book. In Manassas, A-Deli is my goto. Super Big A, Chicken Bacon Ranch!
Sadly I won't be returning. It's over priced and at best satisfactory. To be perfectly straight forward... It's the same feeling when you goto McD and order the Big Mac. The size of the burger isn't even close to what you used to get years ago, and charged a more expensive price. You know what I'm talking about and if not... You obviously missed out.
Kid-friendliness: Would say no. Kids could be a problem due to limited space and wine bottles on display.

We had a Jersey boy and eggplant parm hoagie.
Their bread is perfect for this style sandwich. Meats and veg are good quality and fresh. Definitely adding this to my work lunch rotation.

Got the italian stallion sub and it was very good! Fresh ingredients and was made within minutes. the bread was amazing. I also tried the cannoli which was tasty. You can also order lunch meat to go which i thought was nice. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for a good meal!!

Came here for the amazing cannolis, kept coming back for the wonderful service. Grabbing food to-go while living plastic-free isn’t always an easy thing, but the owner is incredibly friendly and always happy to wrap everything we order in paper!

poorly managed, you should find better help.
cant you hire better a manager?
We really enjoy the food here and like the people. However, we like to order online and have a very difficult time getting them to follow the instructions. For example, if you ask for peppers you rarely get them. If you do get the peppers, there are usually only 1 or 2 peppers. I think we would eat here more if it wasn’t such a struggle to get them to read the requests.
They offer some good Italian wines!

Hands down the best sandwich in NoVA, possibly all of Virginia. Go check it out, you won’t regret it!
