“Top notch deli with great service and amazing classics. The Chopped Cheese is some of the best I’ve ever had, well seasoned beef, cheese perfectly melted in, I could barely take the photos I did without almost eating it all. Definitely recommend this deli if you’re craving a great deli sandwich made by some genuine, hard working guys with an eye for taste and quality!”

“the staff went out of their way to source us stamps on a sunday, going to collect them from elsewhere! very friendly and excellent magazine selection. thank you for ensuring our postcards make it home :)”
“Fantastic experience at this smoke shop! The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making my visit a delight. They were more than happy to assist me in finding the perfect products that suited my needs. Moreover, the prices were very reasonable, providing excellent value for the quality items they offer. I'll definitely be returning and recommending this shop to friends. A five-star rating well-deserved!”
“This might technically be the second location of this miniature Japanese Supermarket chain in NYC, but it's easily the best of the two. One of the main reasons why is that, unlike the other location, they have one very distinct option that is not available on East 59th. That would be Omusubi Gonbei, a delicious onigiri/omusubi/rice ball (or should I say jelly-filled donuts) chain from Japan. Otherwise, there is the typical Brooklyn Ramen joint found in both spots, and a nice, wide selection of drinks, snacks, ingredients, and other things. They have a few more options from Osakana as well, an excellent sushi/sashimi place, with its main location being in the East Village. I slightly prefer the prices at a couple of other Japanese supermarket chains, but they have a nice selection that I find to be always well-stocked. The staff is friendly and helpful, also.”
“Amazing service, amazing food. Great atmosphere. Go grocery shopping + get some good solid food at a good price! Sandwiches, salads, pizzas, hot meals. Anything you may be craving”
“The BEST place for anything Greek and or Mediterranean and beyond. Huge Olive, Cheese and Cold Cut selection with honest pricing as well as fresh goods!! I love me some bastrouma! They ALWAYS have it fresh and tasty, get it with lipos on it yum! They also have tons of specialty items!”
“I ordered the 3 piece fried chicken,cole slaw and biscuits.Overall the food was ok.The chicken wasn't the juiciest and didn't have much flavor.The coating was fried dark but little to no flavor. The biscuits were ok but I didn't see option for butter or honey.The slaw was basic.”
“Prince is a very good boy (cat) and his store is the best! Clean, nice staff, lots of stuff are available and if you are there definitely pet Prince because he deserves it 😤”
“Store is the best In The City With Good Quality Food, good service also clean floors as soon as they can ,but busy at 12pm since lunch time but that’s where the best food comes! Come Shop Here! I recommend!”
“Love this place affordable rice balls and great boba, I got a Salmon teriyaki and eel onigri but the eel was labeled and stocked incorrectly instead it was a spicy shrimp onigri, just be careful with labeling”
“Had the most delightful experience here with Drew. He’s so perfect and kind, I’d give him my first born if I could. Heart of gold, smiles like a , I think I’m in love. THANK YOU DREW.”
“We stopped by on a rainy day after walking over from the Museum of American History, and my friend’s daughter needed to change her wet top. We asked if we could use their bathroom, and the staff didn’t hesitate for a second — they were incredibly kind, welcoming, and understanding. Such a small act of generosity really made our day. Thank you for the warmth and hospitality!”
“This is my second time here and I was pleasantly surprised the first time. I didn’t know what to expect, but I found the environment to be comfortable and the food to be very solid as well!”
“As a busy mom, i rely on our local Wonder restaurant. It’s easy to order, there’s so much variety, and it really helps on those days that get away from me!”

“I recently visited Slovak Czech Varieties, and it offered a simple yet authentic introduction to Slovak and Czech comfort food in Long Island City. The establishment has a casual, almost deli-style atmosphere that reflects its focus on traditional Central European foods rather than a formal dining experience. The space feels modest and practical, allowing the attention to remain on the dishes themselves and the cultural heritage they represent. The menu features a variety of classic Slovak and Czech specialties, many of which emphasize hearty ingredients and comforting preparation methods. Items such as sausages, dumplings, cabbage dishes, and traditional soups reflect the rustic style of Central European cooking. These foods are designed to be filling and satisfying, often combining savory meats with starch-based accompaniments that balance the plate. One of the highlights of the visit was the variety of traditional products available. In addition to prepared meals, the shop often carries specialty items that reflect Slovak and Czech culinary traditions. This adds a cultural dimension to the experience, allowing visitors to explore ingredients and dishes that are not commonly found in mainstream restaurants. The flavors across the dishes leaned toward the savory and comforting side, with seasoning based on garlic, paprika, herbs, and slow-cooked meats. These elements are hallmarks of the cuisine and help create meals that feel both rustic and authentic. The portions were generous and designed to reflect the home-style nature of the cooking. Service during the visit was friendly and straightforward. Staff members maintained a welcoming attitude and were happy to explain items for diners unfamiliar with Slovak or Czech cuisine. This kind of interaction helps create a comfortable environment for those exploring the cuisine for the first time. The overall atmosphere reflects the character of a cultural food shop where authenticity and tradition are prioritized over elaborate presentation. It is the type of place where visitors can experience genuine Central European flavors in a relaxed setting. Overall, Slovak Czech Varieties offers a meaningful and authentic glimpse into Slovak and Czech culinary traditions. While it operates more like a deli or specialty shop than a full restaurant, it succeeds in delivering traditional flavors and preserving cultural food traditions within New York City.”
“Been going here for thirty years, good selection on real foods and decent prices. Service has always been wonderful even despite most of them only speaking Spanish. Theres always someone there to translate.”

“This is the pharmacy you’ve been dreaming of, with the best customer service. They call your medication is ready and will even call you to remind you to pick it up. They always have medications in-stock. They work hard to get customers the best price. I suffered a couple of years going to the local chain pharmacy. They were good people, but they never had medication in stock and sent reminders for pick ups when meds weren’t ready or available. I’d heard about how great Liberty was, but I was hesitant because they are closed on Saturdays. The convenience and care I’ve received from the people at the registers, the pharm techs, and the pharmacist himself is so valuable that I’d still go to this pharmacy if they were closed two days per week.”
“Food: Tacos and the consomé were fantastic!! The pineapple salsa was perfectly spicy and sweet!! I will say for birria tacos, it was quite expensive but I guess that's what I get for craving tacos in NYC...for reference I got two tacos with cheese with consomé and my total came out to around $20!! Absurd, LA would never do my wallet dirty like that!! Anyway, it was still really good and it curbed my craving so 10/10!! Service: There is very very little seating inside so definitely when it's busy it best to take it to go but I enjoy eating tacos on the spot while they're still hot. Our food came out fairly slow but nothing outrageous and would definitely recommend if you're in the area but don't go out of your way for it!”
“Good food,good store I recommend it although that tall lady that be there in the morning serving the food could get a little out of character over little misunderstanding and gives attitude but beside her food be bussing breakfast and lunch they stay on point super good”
“Very well stocked bodega store. Lots of healthy energy drinks like bloom, Yerba Mate and others. Deli is amazing and is a must stop for a sausage bacon egg and cheese on a roll!”
“Great variety of items, very friendly owner. definitely recommend. Don't forget to check the meat section as owner is also a butcher and you can get a lot of fresh meat options.”
“This is the go to Bodega everyone in the area should be going to. Can always count on this deli for a quick meal if I'm on the go, or common things needed for home . Very friendly , great food and fast service. I'd give it an extra star if I could.”
