Anthony’s Famous Gourmet Deli: Reviews & Ratings
love love love this deli. the food is always prepared quickly but neatly. the service is incredible, always friendly. the ambiance isn't a 5 star restaurant view but it's clean. and i think i met my future husband here so that's a plus.
Has this deli ever let me down? Never. They've been there for my lowest lows and highest highs. A warm custom made sandwich is there to comfort me at any hour. Tough day at the hospital? Anthony is there for me. Drunk and coming home at 4am? Anthony is there for me. Woke up hungry and in a rush? Anthony is there for me. They crush their rivals Tasty Picks in sandwich making and I want everyone in the area to understand that.
Gets better and better. Really good bodega for sandwiches and snacks. Definitely recommend.
BEST SANDWICH!!!! This was my first time ordering from here and I wasn't disappointed! This place knows how to make a mean sandwich. GREAT portions!!!!! The meat and produce is fresh! The bread was perfect, not too hard and not too soft. I love sandwiches and I've been to quite a few places around town and have been disappointed. Now that I've found this place, I'm a forever customer! I ordered the Italian. I highly recommend this place! You won't be disappointed. This place is a Diamond in the rough Bronx.
This is a store by the hospital and clinics. They are very popular because you can see that they have alot of options to make a great sandwich. They stay open late and the prices are great. They have plenty of drink options along with cakes and chips. They also make great smoothies and salads. When Im in this area I prefer to choose this place to grab a bite rather then the other options and there are plenty. That speaks volumes. So you want a good sandwich this is one spot to check out. After you pick one up, walk a couple blocks down and chill out in Van Cortlant Park to enjoy, if the weather's good.
I always like to be fair when writing these reviews and there are times I give places another shot. This is one of the times I'm glad I did. I've been sampling things here lately and each and every item I've ordered from here has been great. From the wraps to the heroes to the salads, it's been one fresh thing to another. This has become one of my go to spots whenever I'm in the area. As mentioned in the other review, they do have a wide range of drinks to select from as well as snacks/candy. Staff has been friendly. The only issue can be when it's overcrowded - there needs to be a system where the next person in line is actually next and not the person who cuts them off or can talk the loudest. It's not this place's fault really and more about the rudeness of customers, but there needs to be some order when there's chaotic times. So while there are plenty of similar options in the area, this has become a step above with freshness and taste. I will be coming here a lot more.
