Cafe Plaza Deli

This place is for tourists. Don’t get the food from the hot/​cold food bar! They charge by weight, and my lunch cost $ 25! This place has a bit of a mean streak, they put up signs everywhere, don’t be holding drinks bought from outside. Toilets were a bit gross too.

This place has a lot of stuff: Pizza, a deli, Korean food, and something else that I forgot. The pizza is not the best, but the burger is good.

I go to school around the area. The breakfast is always hot and toasty. Great coffee.

Absolutely the wrost Ramen. It taste like cup of noodle with some red spices n mushrooms. I didn’t have time to go back and voice my complain. But avoid having what they call «Ramen» here.

This is my first time going to the Café Plaza Deli and I must say that I am surprised. I love korean food and didn’t think that there was any place around my work place (I work on broad street) that would serve korean food. I ordered the bulgogi over rice and it was delicious. I am definitely planning on going back. If you don’t just want korean food, i would suggest that eating from the buffet they also have which serves a variety of foods (fried chicken, rice, vegetables, fruit etc…)

Come here for the bulgogi over rice
I just come here for the Korean food. I’ve had the bulgogi bibimbap and the seafood bibimbap here, but I’m not a fan of the choice of vegetables. It’s too diced, julienned would be better and I hate raw lettuce in bibimbap. The seafood was good.
Spicy chicken over right was alright.
On the other hand, the bulgogi over rice is highly recommended.
The mouth watering meat came together well with the sautéed onions and peppers.

I’ll keep it short and savory, the opposite of my experience waiting 30 minutes to get ramen here. Ramen. Really.
The whole point of this trip was to pick up something quick to go, but the cooks lost my order. The best part is that it isn’t even my order being lost because I get that mistakes happen even in the best establishments. I’m here Unilocaling because the cashier was a jerk when I mentioned what happened.
This portly, lamenting, unsympathetic cashier did nothing to recognize the service issue and instead shrugged me off. Our conversation was over when his response was: «in the future you can just call in your order for pickup»

This place has everything from sandwiches to pizza and Korean food. I get a bagel and coffee here every morning and both are always good. I ordered a burger from here once and it was terrible, the meat was dry and overcooked. Their salad is usually fresh and worth trying. Stay away from the pizza, you can find better pizza in the area. The prices are on the expensive side, but its FiDi so that’s to be expected. Service is fast and the cashiers are friendly. Overall it gives you options, some are better than others. Its worth a try.

I came here to get a smoothie. It was a decent portion. The prices here are high though. A small banana and strawberry smoothie came out to $ 4.30. I guess it is FiDi, and most people have money to spend on the salad bar which is $ 7.99/lb. I saw breakfast meals as well as pizza, Korean meals, and even fried foods and rice.

This unimaginatively named establishment is located next to a DMV. They share a similarity utilitarian aesthetic and lack of reputation for good cuisine.
This place occupies the basement of a large office building. If you don’t work inside I doubt there would be a single reason to come. (I do.)
There’s an attempt to do all sorts of dishes here from American Chinese classics like sesame chicken and lo mien to a Korean bar with kimchi fried rice and bulgogi sets and even a pizza oven. None of it stands out, although some things are less offensive than others. The ramyun — the Korean version of ramen — isn’t bad, especially when ordered with an extra helping of the fiery sauce. Three chicken wings and a scoop of white rice makes a cheap, if not particularly nutrias lunch. The oatmeal is nice and rich, although I wish more toppings were included.
Never, ever order the pizza. Avoid the roast meats that sometimes appear on the steam table. Skip the pressed sandwiches. All of these can be had for better within three blocks.
This is a place of convenience and a captive audience. I just wish the recent renovation would have also brought with it a rethink and improvement of the food on offer.

If you work in the area and need a breakfast sandwich or lunch, Café Plaza Deli is solid. They will get you out the door quickly and the food is great. I come here for a breakfast sandwich almost every day and lunch once or twice per week.

OK folks, let’s be real here. It is a deli on Wall Street. There are going to be things that they do better than others. It is not going to be particularly innovative or fancy-​schmancy. It has counter-​service so don’t expect to get the white glove treatment. That said, however, most of the items are tasty, the prices are competitive, and, compared to a lot of Wall Street lunch staples, it is rarely terribly crowded. So if you need to pop in somewhere for a quick sandwich and coffee — you might as well do so here.

OK service and food.
Got the Korean bibimbap LOL. Weird they would have this in a deli in Wall Street! It was okay. The beef was good but they didn’t give too much. Whatever. It was like a last minute scramble to find food. I would stick to sandwiches.
OH! AND, you have to pay mother trucking 10 cents for a plastic cup and 75 cents for a cup and ice??? NYC Wall Street, you are ridiculous! :(thumbs down. I don’t know if all places are like that in NY, but that was just plain stupid. I won’t be drinking any ice or anything! –_​_​–

I was walking by here at 4:00 p.m. today and decided to have an early dinner from their salad bar (they also have a hot food bar, but by that time most of the choices were gone because they close at 5:00 p.m.). However, they had a very decent amount of salad-​type items (including pasta) and everything was tasty & fresh. The price was $ 6.99/pound. The young (female) cashier was very nice — and so were all of the guys working there, with the exception of one who was rather brusque.
This place has an «A» rating from the Health Department.

A Friend stopped by on his way for a haircut, said he was in a Deli what did I want. I told him to grab a Roast Beef & Swiss. When I opened the sandwich I was surprised, it was decently portioned, and even more surprised when I bit into it. It was really good. Don’t get me wrong it was no Rosario’s but it was a good healthy sandwich.
They use Boars Head which is always a plus, and they are competitively priced at $ 7 a sandwich (Competitive for Downtown NYC). They seem to never be that busy and they have a nice selection of Sandwiches, Buffet Items, and a sushi bar.
We went back today tried the Terrayaki Chicken Sandwich, Glad to say they are 2 for 2. Give em a shot much better than most of the Downtown Delis.

«NG» — No Good.
Rude. Poor, overpriced food. After three chances this place struck out for me. The first time, they were just straight up rude. Second time I was overcharged for the breakfast combo (even after pointing it out). But the final straw was the poor excuse for a burrito that was nearly 8 duckits. This thing was scrawny. I ordered the first one listed on the menu (w/​chicken and bacon). Asked the cook to put in avocado, and thank got that I did, b/​c without it, it would have been inedible.
There aren’t many places open around here on weekends, but avoid this place and take your $ 8 to Chipotle across the street instead.

This is another staple of the financial district. It’s close to my workplace, inexpensive, and offers variety. It’s easy to miss this place (Stephanie J and I affectionately refer to it as «the downstairs place» because it is, essentially, downstairs from street level), and maybe I’m shooting myself in the foot by reviewing it because it’s never crowded even at lunch, but I had to give Café Plaza Deli some love.
It’s kind of like the Variety Café’s little brother. There are many of the same food options (sandwiches, pasta, pizza, panini, salad bar, burgers) but it’s much smaller scale than Variety. I tend to choose CPD when I’m jonesing for a turkey burger — they’re really good and so are the fries that they make freshly for you. I haven’t had much else here save the occasional tuna sandwich, but I’m planning to try the vegetarian panini next time. The guys who make the sandwiches are all super nice — that helps. This place is pretty secluded and hard to find, but well worth the effort to get away from the throngs of bankers and tourists that clog up the more popular lunch venues.
