I found some spicy truffle chips I hadn't tried before. Ordered my usual, the hot pastrami on rye with deli mustard. Yum! The wait is never very long with 3 people or 20 people in line; they have lots of people behind the counter. Once your order is ready, you step to the register to pay and you on your way.

The place is a hole in the wall, authentic, old school, small deli without any frills. We loved…read morewatching the interaction with the locals - moving away from St. Louis has me missing that aspect of the community. After we ordered coffee, they looked at us and told us it would be 5-10 minutes. They had no milk and were out of creamer. Again, authentic to the community - you should order black coffee here & not past 8:30z As we sat & I realized, I leaned in and said, did you realize it's almost 11:00? Honestly, neither of us realized until after we sat down that the breakfast rush was long over and they were essentially brewing a pot just for us. They were very nice & accommodated but, boy did I feel bad once it dawned on me. Enjoyed both our bagel & knish.

We chose this sandwich shop because they're a well-known small business in STL, and whenever we…read morehost visitors from out of town for luncheons we always try to support local restaurants so they can get a true taste of St. Louis. Since this place is such a staple, we figured we had to give it a try. The place was absolutely packed, which clearly shows it's a local favorite. Even with how busy they were, our pickup order was ready on time -- actually before the scheduled pickup since I arrived about five minutes early. The atmosphere definitely had that classic local sandwich shack vibe and seemed like it would make a great casual lunch spot for almost any occasion. Unfortunately, the food itself just didn't live up to the reputation for us. We ordered the hot salami sandwiches, which they're known for, but they were extremely greasy and the only flavors that really stood out were mustard and grease. We expected a lot more flavor and balance considering it's their specialty item. We also placed a large luncheon order of 10 sandwiches. Everyone was satisfied overall and the food was decent enough, but nothing really stood out or made us excited to come back. We personally prefer Adriana's for both flavor and overall quality. One of the biggest disappointments was that none of the sandwiches had cheese on them, even though we paid an extra $2 per sandwich for the garlic cheese bread upgrade. That was frustrating considering the additional charge. Honestly, I'm guessing we may have just caught them on an off day because it's obvious this spot has a loyal following. We still appreciate supporting local STL businesses and can understand why so many people love it -- it just wasn't quite the experience we were expecting.

My husband got the Enzo Gorlomi - an Italian sub. Bro, that saaaauceee was killer. I haaaate driving past Forest Park, but this is worth it!

My sandwich was so big that I ate it over lunch, dinner, and lunch again the next day! There was so much pastrami in DH's sammy that he had some leftover for breakfast as well. The pastrami was was exceptionally nuanced, and this place will def be our go to from now on.

The meat was mostly small pieces (instead of slices), which was a little disappointing, but it tasted great and would highly recommend it. The bad: The rye bread soaked up sandwich juices and was very soggy. Couldn't pick it up at all and ended up eating it with a fork. Will be back, but only to eat in.

And that's ok. It's like a really big deli or corner store. Size is great. Most of the St. Louis staple snacks are available. Some frozen pizza I thought about buying and then changed my mind. Plenty of candy. A good selection of Calypso flavored lemonade. I think I bought peach on my visit this 3/14 Day. Maybe one day I'll be in a sandwich mood and I'll have a LeGrand's something or other.

First, I love that this is a locally family owned and run Busines. We tried the Zach and the Meatball sandwich. The Zach was packed with turkey, cheese and pesto. The Meatball sandwich is honestly one of the Top 10 Meatball sandwiches in STL! It truly highlights the famous Vitale Sauce/Gravy recipe! One bit and you can feel the love and the time and effort it takes to simmer all day. Definitely will return soon!!

Not a lot of menu items, but they absolutely nailed it. I ordered the Pete with the recommendation of Mike. Man I must say that was an amazing sandwich and it was just how I like it.

We chatted and she showed us what they have besides sandwiches and even gifted us a loaf of bread. Wish I didn't live so far but I will definitely come back if in the area and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great sandwich.
