First visit to this lovely Eastern European grocery store…read more I was here in my quest for good quality perogies in my area, Durham region. I usually go to the west side of GTA or Mississauga. Unfortunately, when I came here on Sat afternoon, there is no pierogis in the deli section and the variety of frozen perogies were quite limited. BUT, they have cold cuts and bacons that are from small farms not from the big name companies. The lady over the counter generously allowed me to sample them before making decision on which to buy. I am pleased to know that they have WAGENER'S Weisswurst that I like. So glad to know that I do not have to travel to Pusateri to get this. I was also sooooo pleased to find this smoked cheese. Please see the picture. Mild and slightly sweet taste with delicate aroma of smoke - the outside is crispy and I felt crisp in every bite. Addictive. Very nice customer service. On my next visit, I should try their sandwiches -they are popular for their sandwiches. I learned that pork schnitzel is made in the morning. I should come in the morning to get a fresh schnitzel sandwich!!!

I ordered on of their sandwiches. It was large and wet. Plenty of sauce. Tough to eat while driving. They have fridges around the cash where they sell the sausages they make. They were fine. Smokey and good size but a little over processed for my taste. You may like them. Enjoy

Had their veal sandwich.

Had to toss it. Im 15 mins from the store and not worth returning it. Would never go back

Awesome food, great service! We go often to load up on deli meat, especially the mortadella, and…read morethe crusty buns. Sometimes, I just want to go in and enjoy the smells of bread, spicy meats and their homemade tomato sauce on the pastas. Best in Whitby, no argument. This is a REAL deli.

I used to enjoy shopping here, until my Mother had a run in with a very rude butcher (younger guy…read morewith a beard). She is a senior and had a couple of questions and he was very condescending. She left feeling very embarrassed and I felt it was uncalled for. This happened awhile back and she is still uncomfortable going back to this store, so I am leaving a review in hopes that attitudes change. Staff has always been great, and the meat excellent. It's a shame his poor attitude had to ruin the experience for her. So much for the "friendly" neighborhood butcher.

These guys make a MIGHTY sandwich! Tried the meatball, chicken parm and steak sandwich. My…read morefavourite was the meatball sub for sure. All three sandwiches were HUGE!!! Great quality sandwich, loaded, that's for sure. The only reason I didn't give them a 5-star is that the flavour profile for these sandwiches wasn't what I was looking for. I've had better versions of these sandwiches elsewhere, but... no one builds such an impressive sandwich like Chicago Deli. You definitely need to go here!

I have been shopping there for years and will never by my meat from anywhere else. I love the small town, family run feel in an otherwise large faceless city. The selection is top notch, and the meat is always very fresh an ready for the BBQ. For the first time shopper park on the street, it is easier, and don't hesitate to ask questions from the staff, especially the owner, they all know their stuff and seem to love what they do. If you are ever in Oshawa this is a must stop. ENJOY
