New York Deli II

I used to go here when I was younger, but then stopped because apparently they only make enough bagels to last till 9am? That blows my mind btw! I decided to give them another try today for lunch and it was ok but ($$$).I asked the owner what’s popular and he responded with what kind of meat I like… Ok? Guess I should’ve asked what’s the local favorite/​top seller, maybe? He didn’t seem to have much patience for simple questions. Anyways, this bums me out being I’m from up north and remember the deli’s up there being the best in the country! In my opinion. Tips from a business owner– smile when a customer walks up, thank the customer, and lastly don’t keep a outside trash can in your place of business. When I left I checked on, Unilocal just to see if I was the only one that felt that way and I see I’m def not. It’s a shame that some businesses just don’t see a good thing that’s right in front of them. It’s the little things that matter. Hope they actually start reading their reviews before it’s too late. Best of luck!

WARNING! Let’s just add to the shitty service and attitude of this bunch of trash. Food is horrible. (My friend got to eat his sandwich while I argued with the owner about my sandwich.)Can’t make a sandwich for their lives. Trashy owners and worker who put their hands all in your food and then argue with you when you complain about it. Stay far away from this whole in the wall cockroach infested shit place. Didn’t even get to eat there as I was cursed out by the owner for asking for my refund when they put their hands in my food. Doesn’t even deserve the one star that I’m forced to give –10stars

Dirty, place bathrooms filthy no soap men’s room cleaning buckets nasty black mop. Doors blinds floor dirty nasty. Nice owner friendly. No business, tables all need cleaned. Have a outside residential garbage can in side.

Poor service, overpriced, poor sandwich and very low style and poor cup of coffee!
Thanks but no thanks. Good bye for ever.

Employees are arguing in the background. Really obnoxious. Wish I had got my meal to go.

The Deli has great bagels WHEN they have them. I do not understand how a bagel place can run out of bagels consistently before 9am. They pride themselves on getting authentic bagels from NY, yet they really should focus on learning how to make a bagel so they can provide bagels to their customers.

Wonderful deli and very enduring local restaurant, wonderful Boars Head meats, and incredibly attractive prices… if you want to get away from the corporate style restaurant, this is it! Open early for breakfast too! Owner is loyal to the customers and employees, some of worked there a decade… hands on for sure and that makes for a great experience… wishing NY Deli a wonderful US Open surge!!!

I happen to absolutely love this place! I’ve been coming here for 5+ years and now that I am working just around the corner I make it a point to come once a week to get my fix. NY Deli slices their meat (which is the absolute best: Boar’s Head) fresh to order. I’ve tried multiple items off of the menu and have never been disappointed. Favorites include the Villager and the NY Club. The staff is super friendly to me, however that might be because I come in so much. Reasonably priced — especially for Boar’s Head. They are consistent and delicious and most definitely one of my favorite sandwich places in town!

I ate here while visiting my family. This place has no resemblance to a deli found in the NY area. Sandwiches are really cheap and not worth the price. I agree with «Mark T.», the cold cuts are no better than what you would find in a grocery store.
The potato salad was terrible with the potatoes not being cooked all the way – rather «crunchy». I went to complain about it and this lady manager comes running out of the kitchen screaming and yelling and created quite a scene. She actually followed us out into the parking lot in a rage. Never experienced this type of behavior.
The place is not very clean and needs to be closed for cleaning and an complete overhaul. I actually got a splinter from the fraying wood on one of the tables!
I might try this place, again, on my next trip to Pinehurst. Maybe they will make positive changes for the better. Maybe they could take a trip to NYC and observe hat is going on and duplicate it!
Right now, my advise is: DON’T GO!

Never disappointed in the quality. It’s simple and the staff is always pleasant and efficient. It’s just a tad over priced in my opinion. Great little lunch spot though.

I ate here one lunch while visiting Pinehurst. We went there during peak lunch –around noon, and though it was a bit busy, they were very efficient in getting their food out.
This is a café style restaurant so soon as you walk in you are ordering. Like I just said, the staff was pretty efficient so you better know what you want when you walk in –they didn’t seem to have too much patients for people who wanted to read their menu.
I ordered a deli-​style roast beef sandwich with a side of chips. The sandwich was regular grocery store deli meat with a nice fresh roll. There were no bells and whistles with this sandwich and it was no more than what I could have made at home.
The restaurant itself was a bit seedy looking –both inside and out. The walls, floor and even tables had a very greasy, grungy feel to them so I tried not to think about what the kitchen area was like. Just as probably could have been expected, the bathrooms were no more cleanly than the restaurant itself :)
I’d say the prices were pretty expensive for a lunch, especially considering what we got: two sandwiches, drinks and chips. It cost about $ 20 for the both of us –none of which goes to the cleaning crew…
The next time I’m in Pinehurst I probably won’t be visiting this place –though there really didn’t seem to be too many choices in the town.

This is my crave lunch place. Its fast, and amazing. Just like mom makes them, but WAY more to choose from. Comes with an authentic NY accent. Perfect for lunch on the go. It is family owned so you see the same people every time and by now they know my order by heart! Awesomeness!

NY deli fare is good.
I originally gave NY Deli 4 stars before I had a chance to eat at Lil Dinos. Hate to say it, but better sandwiches can be had just across the street at Lil Dino’s.
