Grand Central Deli

This place should be called Grand Larceny! It’s overpriced sandwiches are dried out and very sloppy. The staff is less than attentive and discourteous. It’s only busy because there is no where else to go on that side of town. You’re better off making a PB&J on stale bread and chunky peanut butter then going here.

Don’t ask for veggie cream cheese at this place. They won’t tell you they don’t have it. Instead, you’re going to open your bagel and see a blob of plain cream cheese in the center of the bagel (bagels have hole in the center if you recall) and what I can only describe as finely chopped SALAD thrown into the center of it! For the life of me I can’t think of why anyone would think this was a good idea. I asked for an everything bagel veggie cream cheese, onion and tomato. (Your basic NY bagel minus the lox.) this order alone took 2 people (TWO!) to enter into their computer and about 3 minutes to do so after repeating myself several times! I actually SAW the woman drop the salad onto the bagel and though NO! That can’t possibly be my order. So I didn’t say anything. Obviously I’m annoyed. This hasn’t been my first crappy encounter here, but this is the most recent. I won’t be wasting my time at this dump again.

Happy New Year. I went to a party last night. And I had a very enjoyable time with very good food thank you very much for your macaroni salad your sliders your potato salad and everything else you can you send everything was amazingly delicious can’t wait to get to the store

Omelettes that are out if this world! Healthy egg white omelet filled with fresh veggies and alpine lace Swiss, accompanied by thick crunchy toast and a potato/​onion/​pepper mix that was hard to resist. The portions were so generous we had a tough time finishing! Nice selection of coffees. I had the donut blend. Very good. The cases are filled with delicious looking lunch and dinner items too. Wish it were closer to home!

The place is clean and the breakfast is ok. but I was disapointed when I ordered a chicken wrap. There was hardly any chicken in it, and it was dried out and very thin. it should have been called a lettuce wrap. Its also way overpriced, they are charging manhattan prices and not delivering the quality of a real deal nyc deli… GO TO A & S in Jefferson Valley!!!

The good: food is fresh, inside is very clean. Every employee I’ve met was nice.
The bad: the portion size of the food for what you pay for is tiny.
My experience: I order a turkey and cheese sandwich on a hero. I purchased nothing else with the order and I was charged over $ 10.00 for it. (The amount of turkey on the sandwich wasn’t even a lot!) any other deli I have been to would charge about 7.00 for what I had. Other places who charge about the same as GCM give you a mountain of cold cuts that makes the sandwich big enough for left overs.
Where does a place like this in upstate New York ‘somers’ get off charging Manhattan prices for food? I have been here on a few other occasions and have had the same buyers remorse after going up to the register.
I wonder if the owners seem to care about customers and maintaining a business or how many extra penny’s they put in their pockets.

We recently got catering from GCD for a family party. It was a big order and we were very pleased– the food was delicious, fresh, piping hot; the order was accurate and ready on time. We got a lot of food for the money. I certainly would get catering from here again and would recommend it to anyone.

I’ve always enjoyed the food here. For the most part the folks who work here are nice. However there’s one woman who work here who needs a major attuned adjustment. She’s a Spanish woman who always makes it seem like she’s doing me a favor taking my order. She’s nasty and condescending. Just today I ordered a sandwich and when another worker told her they were out of one of the ingredients, she looked at me and told her not to worry about it. As if it didn’t matter. They need to think about how this worker represents the establishment as am now thinking of taking my money elsewhere.
I’ll still give it 3 stars since the food is always fresh and well prepared.

Okay Unilocal,I could have sworn I wrote a review for GCD… Where is it?!
This is my absolute favorite Deli. They have so many amazingly delicious sandwiches. My personal favorite are the Chicken Supreme and the Eggplant Supreme. (Chicken or Eggplant with fresh mozzarella, roasted peppers and balsamic glaze). Incredible.

The Latin staff is terrible they always have a bad attitude towards the customer except if your Latin!

I’ve driven by 1000 times but have never had occasion to stop in. Today I did and I will certainly be back. Great Iced Coffee. Everyone behind the counter was super-​nice and helpful. And all of the food looked and smelled delicious and the salads, especially, looked great… not like those iceberg lettuce and one tomato kind you see at most delis. I will absolutely be back.
