River Street Deli

If you are looking for real authentic food from New York Bronx this is the place to come. The Rubin sandwich is the real deal and owner has the personality too. He might seem rough around the edges but nice as can be once you get to know him. I had the egg salad sandwich this time with hummus. They do have gluten free bread and options to for celiac disease. I would highly recommend experiencing this restaurant if your visiting or along time local. Tell them I sent you.

Anything you order out of this place will be amazing. My husband ordered one of the day’s special, Brooklyn style Brisket sandwich (hot beef with homemade slaw). It was definitely one of the best meat sandwiches I’ve ever tried. I went for the veggie panini on focaccia which was loaded with (I think) roasted veggies. Also good. This place is always busy during lunch hour, but service is always quick. Highly recommended.

Deli isn’t much to look at, but it is definitely worth the stop. Ordered the egg salad and a build your own sandwich. Both were very good! The people working were both very friendly and accommodating. The location by the park is also a big plus. Would definitely stop again.
