This place does great sandwiches. Good prices, REALLY generous portion sizes, lots of other deli…read moreitems to get along with it. Also nice because most deli's in the area are Italian, so finding good Polish/Jewish/Russia/etc deli items are hard to find. If I want Pastrami, Sauerkrat, Corned Beef, etc, I go here. When talking about deli's in the Heights, Andrea Salumeria always sucks up all the oxygen, and for Italian stuff its hard to justify walking several extra blocks further for me to come to Podewitz instead, but this place is different enough from Andrea's that the two can really coexist in the market (and have been for years), and I find myself going to both depending on my specific craving. Podewitz also has a small grocery section for basic needs, a very large drink selection, and some wine/liquor, so its also a pretty convenient stop on your day-time errands.

I just ate out Sharon Stone…read more Now before you get all Basic Instinct on me with an ice pick and start yelling, "That old hag" let me just state that Sharon Stone is a sandwich. And what a sandwich it is: chicken on a French roll, with swiss cheese and sun-dried tomatoes, and all drizzled with extra virgin olive oil. Add a bag of chips and a pickle slice and you're good to go. And all this is $5.75. Awesome? Yes it is. Jealous? Yes you are. There is a huge sandwich board that hangs above the counter, and all the sandwiches are named after celebrities. You've got your Robert DeNiro, which consists of lots of Italian meats. You've got your Madonna, which consists of swiss cheese and turkey, I believe. And you've got your Denzel Washington, which is nothing but ham. From the outside it does look like your basic liquor store, because plastered on the windows are loads of pictures of beers, wines and liquers. But when you walk in, oh man oh man is it like nirvana. Now I'm from JC and there are a bunch of great, little Italian places around here, like Second Street Deli and Renata's. But when it comes to getting your food to go, and fresh food at that, I may have to put Podewitz at the top. The fact that I can get fresh sandwiches, rice pudding, egg salad, pasta, meatballs, stuffed shells AND a bottle of Jameson's puts it over the top. And the fact that I can have beauties like Oprah and Sharon Stone in my mouth for long periods of time.

I've driven past Latin American Deli & Grocery so many times and finally decided to stop in one…read moremorning. I'm so glad I did because this place did not disappoint. It's a traditional Latin grocery with an authentic breakfast counter that reminded me of the neighborhood spots I grew up visiting. I asked if they could make a breakfast sandwich that wasn't on the menu, and they happily made the "Boogie" for me: sausage, egg, cheese, hash browns, hot sauce, and butter on a toasted cinnamon raisin bagel. It was absolutely delicious, the portion was generous, and for under $10, the value was outstanding. The store also has plenty of seating, a coffee station, convenience items, drinks, ice cream, an ATM, lottery tickets, and a restroom. Everything tasted fresh, and the service was warm and welcoming. One of the cutest touches was seeing the owner's twin daughters helping at the register. After recently paying nearly $20 for a bagel elsewhere, this was a refreshing reminder that great food doesn't have to be expensive. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a delicious, authentic breakfast.

Inspired by Weehawken's Boogie Woogie Cafe's "SoBo" in Weehawken. Optionally, can sub cinnamon raisin for onion or everything #bagel depending on #breakfast or #lunch vibes, but think cinnamon raisin works better with coffee; everything works better with diet soda or green tea. Give it a try if you dare. #bodega #nyc

I haven't been there for awhile due to my getting older no more busses on the ave and my not having a car.

A couple days ago, I took a leap of faith and ordered "Pete's Special Tuna" sandwich. This is not an ordinary tuna sandwich. They open a fresh can of Italian Tono in olive oil and chop in seasoning, sweet peppers (I go half and half with sweet and spicy peppers) and lettuce. It's my favorite sandwich of the moment. Perhaps the best tuna sandwich I've ever had. If you're a tuna sandwich aficionado you MUST try this.

I tried the Taylor ham, Egg and Cheese and it was fresh, big and really good! I read in some reviews that the cheese is light on the sandwiches here, but I felt it was adequate enough. Just know that the sandwich isn't going to be dripping excess cheese when you pick it up. Cash is preferred. They do allow credit cards use, but have a sign that says $10.00 minimum. I'd advise anyone to do so because no single item is over $10! That bagel I described earlier was only $6! And customer service was a fun and helpful. Bottom line: anytime it's 7am (rarely), I'm driving nearby and haven't ate yet, I'm stopping here. No thoughts on their lunch menu, but I'm make the effort and stop by soon.
