    My father started taking me here when I was a kid and now I stop in every time I am in the city. Not often enough. This is the deli to go to if you want an authentic experience. Real NYC deli food with great service. It may look outdated but don't let that stop you. This will be the food you talk about 10 years from now. Just grab a sandwich and taste what made NY food famous. Don't forget to grab a black and white cookie, my absolute favorite growing up.

    "The Godfather" -- almost too much meat to fit the bread
    Christopher B.

    Have been ordering here at work and man, these guys don't get enough credit for making a great and filling sandwich! Having the pleasure of dining here has made the "return-to-office" something to look forward to. The Godfather ("Prosciutto, cappicola, pepperoni, Provolone, lettuce, tomato, roasted pepper on hero") is definitely my go-to, made fresh to order and sizeable for its price: I've eaten half for lunch and taken the other home for dinner. A delicious meal at a decent price.

    Old school deli with reasonable pricing, friendly staff & eat in seating. I came for lunch & was very happy. Can get a bit busy during lunch time. I think it's a pretty nice spot to grab lunch or a breakfast sandwich. Try the salad bar, it's super fresh & delicious!

    Godfather Gourmet Sandwich
    Ryan F.

    Quick lunch at All American Deli. Despite struggling through the menu, ended up with a decent sandwich. Recommend you come in prepared because the menu is large and difficult to make out from the counter. Quality: Ended up ordering the Godfather Gourmet Sandwich. Proscuitto, cappicola, pepperoni, provolone, lettuce, tomato, and roasted peppers all on a hero. The meat was solid, the bread was a bit stale. I could have used some sauce or at least more oil and vinegar, which may have been an option I did not see on the menu. A place where some customization is needed, so look up the menu before you visit. Quantity: Large sandwich with a good deal of deli meat piled on. Value: $9.00 for the Godfather Gourmet Sandwich. Ambiance: All American Deli is located in the FiDi of Manhattan. A surprisingly large store, they have a massive deli counter in the back and a good sized seating area up front. It has a very old school vibe, one that may need a bit of modernization to increase traffic. Crowd: Surprised to find it empty during weekday lunch hour. Service: Struggled to see the menu, so just asked for the most popular item. Glad they picked the sandwich they did, but lose points for no one at the register when I was looking to pay. Parking: Parking is not a good option.

    Quick, efficient deli. They make great breakfast sandwiches- my favorite is whole wheat, 2 egg whites, cheese and ham. They get your order right, and they make your order quick. The minimum for credit card is $5. For lunch, they have a good variety of sandwiches, and its pretty crowded.

    Food was just ok, never went back during my trip and its overly priced in my opinion. I'd try other diners before going back here myself.

    This is a cozy place for italian sandwiches. Expect a crowd during lunch time and seats fill out…read morequickly. They have an extensive menu so be ready for some tough choices. We got the limonata and mandarino to drink and the la toscana and la paradiso for our sandwiches. They are massive so prepare for leftovers. La Toscana- The foccacia is soft and fluffy. You get savory salame toacano, pecorino, and truffle honey that ties the flavors together. La Laradiso- The mortadella is tasty and given in generous amounts. The stracciatella, pistachio cream, and pistachio bits add a depth of flavor and texture. Limonata and Mandarino- This was sweet, fruity, and refreshing. Hits the spot after walking around all morning. Love the vintagr can designs! Great experience overall!

    Someone order a Hot Italian? Here I am…read more The legendary Florentine sandwich shop achieved global fame by earning some of the highest praise in food journalism for its massive, fresh-baked schiacciata sandwiches. Google their name and "best" and get hundreds of hits, but the majors who crowned them "best sandwich" title include Saveur Magazine, the big one touted by the family; Eater NY, ranking La Paradiso the most elite Italian sandwich outside of Italy; Las Vegas Weekly, who crowned them "Home of the world's best sandwiches"; TripAdvisor, for whom the Italian original is the most reviewed eatery with a near perfect rating; and The Infatuation NYC guides who promise the execution of the crispy, airy schiacciata bread completely justifies the hype. All 17 options looked amazing, so I spoke to a regular in line, telling her I couldn't decide between "La Paradiso", the most praised (even though she informed me "mortadella is just bolonie" or the Hot Italian, which was more my style. So, I did what any gluttonous American would do and I got both. And a Diet Coke, of course. La Paradiso has thinly sliced bolonie for a savory base, with creamy shredded stacciatella cheese, with sweet but earthy pistachio cream, and a sprinkle of toasted pistachio for texture (that I didn't detect). It was good, but I will likely fuggedaboutit. The Hot Italian had thin, lean turkey, spicy and smoky spreadable Calabrian pork sausage, a balancing provolone, calabrian chili honey, and peppery arugula (that they claim adds crunch that I didn't detect). Were they life-changing? No. But I rank Paradiso a 8.8 and Hot Italian a 10. And because everyone is hard-working and everything is so freshly prepared and cut, it's a class act. They should seriously make a sign that says, "Can't decide? Get two!" and then give me free sandwiches on my yearly trips for the idea.

    Last day in New York back the end of March, found us looking for a place to get warm and grab some…read morefood while doing our last exploring dash through Times Square. We ducked here to grab some nourishment before I became to hangry. Ordering takes place at the counter then grab a table. I had a 1/2 bowl of their "famous chicken soup" and 1/2 pastrami sandwich. Had good flavor and was enough to warm me up on this brisk morning. My niece did a bagel, and after trying all week she finally got one exactly how she wanted it made. We ate and chilled for a bit, no plans for the day other than making it to the airport to go home. Was able to people watch and catch up without feeling rushed to leave. Saw locals come through, so you know it is a place worth stopping. The staff were nice and even apologized for not being able to give me the soup I wanted in a half order. Though things can often get overlooked and passed by in the hustle and bustle of the city...stop in and relax while you grab a bite to eat.

    Date of visit: April 14, 2026…read more Our friend wanted to go to a real New York deli during her first trip to the city and this is the one in the vicinity of Times Square and our evening show that was the highest rated according to my fellow Yelpers, but I am not quite sure why based on our experience. Things did start out great, with Boudjema being very friendly and helpful as we placed our order. And once we got seated, we were able to fully appreciate the vibe, both in the primarily 70s playlist, but also the mirror and brass touches across the restaurant. Food-wise, however, there were some definite opportunities. My Roasted Turkey sandwich did come on quite possibly the best rye bread I have ever had, warm and flavorful. But while the gravy was also good, the turkey was cold. This odd temperature mismatch made it hard to appreciate the generous portion of meat on the sandwich. We also ordered some tater tots and those were quite good. While it definitely could have been worse--and I've had worse in New York City--this also could have been so much better.
