    Fried Mushrooms
    Lauren M.

    This deli is close to my office and it is the perfect place for a quick stop and a home cooked meal. The restaurant is family-owned and they are super nice to all the customers. The prices are so reasonable and you get a lot of bang for your buck. Today I had the Cuban pressed hot. You get a generous serving of meat and the bread tastes like it was baked this morning. We also had a chicken philly and the fried mushrooms and they were great!- just be careful cause they come out piping hot.

    The Office Ham, hot on rye
    Bo W.

    I came here for lunch on Monday, and liked it so much, I came back for lunch the very next day! Monday, I tried The Office Ham (toasted on rye), which is thin sliced baked deli ham, Swiss cheese, topped with lettuce, tomato, gourmet mustard, mayonnaise, and your choice of onion roll or rye. It was really delicious! Next time I shall ask for the melt. Today, we split The Million Dollar Round Table, The Wall Street Journal, and an order of cheese fries with bacon. All were really delicious! The Million Dollar Round Table is listed as a triple decker sandwich with ham, turkey, Swiss, lettuce, tomato, bacon, and mayo, served on pumpernickel bread. First off, it's a double decker, and even that is actually a little misleading, because the middle slice of pumpernickel only separates the lettuce, tomato, and bacon from the turkey and ham. That third slice is a little useless in my opinion, but it was still delicious. I heard someone order it without the middle slice of bread, and that's what I recommend. The pumpernickel they have is delicious, but that's just too much bread in comparison to the other ingredients. The Wall Street Journal is thin sliced roast beef, provolone, lettuce, tomato, and mild tangy BBQ sauce served on a hoagie roll. I'm not a huge fan of barbecue sauce, so this was not my favorite, yet still pretty good. Again, a little heavy on bread. The cheese fries with bacon were mediocre. The cheese is pumped out, similar to that of a gas station. In addition to the sides they can make in the kitchen, there is a potato chip rack. There are fountain drinks, as well as a drink cooler. The parking lot is tight, but there's reserved spots just for the deli. The dining area is clean, and the service is fast and friendly. Overall, it's a nice deli to get a good sandwich, at a decent price.

    Came here for a light breakfast before going grocery shopping and I'm sorry to say that I was very disappointed. The staff was not very friendly and the food looked like it came from the frozen food section and was just reheated. It was very cheep place where you get what you pay for.

    This is an ok place in my opinion, the portions are small. It's a bit pricy. But it not a bad place. Nothing out standing.

    I will ALWAYS say yes to going Wright's. The cakes and food are always amazing quality (you can…read moretell it's all in-house). Service is ALWAHS amazing. The staff is friendly, helpful and always with a smile. Their sandwiches are all customizable and I really want to try breakfast one day here. Anyone to everyone can find something to eat off the menu. Any special occasion I will always say yes to a cake from here. I've had it for my 21st Birthday (2019) and my college graduation (2020) so far. Their chocolate cake is my FAVORITE cake of all time, and their red velvet and alpine is not to be slept on. There's a lot of seating and parking available as well. It's bright and comfortable, perfect for coming with a large group as well.

    After hearing about Wright's Gourmet House for a while, I finally made my way over to see what all…read morethe hype was about. I stopped in for a quick breakfast and ordered The Yankee (pastrami, scrambled egg whites, and cheese on an English muffin), a side of breakfast potatoes, and one of their cream cheese brownies. The standout was easily the breakfast sandwich. The English muffin was one of the best I've ever had. Fresh, soft, and clearly made with care. It was also a bit larger than your typical English muffin, and honestly, the bread was so good that I found myself taking the pastrami out and eating it separately because I enjoyed the egg, cheese, and muffin combination that much. If you're someone who loves an English muffin breakfast sandwich, this is worth trying for the bread alone. The cream cheese brownie was also excellent. I would absolutely order that again. The only real letdown was the breakfast potatoes. They were just okay and could have been much crispier. They were already a little soggy even though I picked my food up as soon as it was ready and ate it immediately, so it wasn't a case of the food sitting around. Service was friendly, but I was surprised by how long the food took considering the restaurant wasn't particularly busy and there were plenty of open seats. Overall, I can definitely see why Wright's has been a Tampa staple for so long.

A fresh produce, meat, fish, sausage, pickled olives, section. You walk further down and Theres the grab and go food section. Then to the left you have wine and cheese. You go further in, and Theres a fancy cheese section. Unfortunately they don't give small amounts of cheeses and cut it for you. But you can buy some really good cheeses here. Then you go back to the very narrow hallway, and Theres a ton of coffee on the left. I just got into coffee and am a coffee snob. I noticed there was a "greasy" looking bean. Which just means it's well past its freshness. The price of bean actually isnt that bad. And they offer a lot of varieties. We bought two, Guatemala and organic Mexico. I wanted to try it out before writing this review. The Guatemala one was light, faint. The Mexico was a bit deeper flavor. I would recommend to management to better advertise the coffee bean so the product moves and stays fresh, or maybe move it to a different section where people can feel comfortable getting it. It gets so crowded in the hallway. I would leave the hallway was a grab and go area. You keep walking down and you have the coffee shop to the right, and a small bread stand to the left. Of course we got coffee. Theres a small area of seating to get coffee for there. Theres a big roaster to give the appearance that they roast their own coffee but I believe it's just for decoration. Fiancé got a cappuccino. It was okay. He normally doesn't get coffee with too much milk but the waitress said there was 3 shots of espresso in there. I would say it didn't taste like 3 shots. It taste like coffee with 90% milk. And it should be told to customers that a cappuccino there is more milk with coffee. I got the con panno. Which is espresso with whipped cream. I'm not sure if the whip cream they use is fresh, or if it's super sweetened, but my coffee was sweet. It was thick which I like but I didn't like whatever sweetener they used. But I'd probably order a macchiato if I ever came back so I could taste the coffee. On the other side of the coffee shop is the sandwiches and prepared food that you order. Sandwiches are HUGE. Fiancé had the #1 with all the fixings. It was nice but if you don't like soggy sandwiches, you can ask for no veggies. Which we would do next time. I had the 7, no sun-dried tomatoes and no veggies. It was so good. The mozzerella was very fresh! If you walk past that you have the dried cured meat, and down a hallway to the right you'll find dried pasta and fresh pasta. The fresh pasta looked so good. I wished we lived in the area so I could try. You head back the other way and pass the outdoor seating and Theres also a place for you to check out you grocery/sandwiches. Right next to that section you have the pantry area of canned fish, pickled things, olive oil. Then Theres the bread and pastry area. We only had time to see these and no time to see what other stores they had or walk around. But I'd definitely come back to check those out.

However, this is not the place to get a Reuben. Super thin, barely any meat or flavor. It is mostly eating bread. Avoid. Up next, I can't remember what the other sandwich was, but it was bad. I think it was a Cuban, but not sure. It was straight bread. Take a look at the pic. Now, the only above average food item I tried was the German potato salad. I would come back here only for that.

I typically order the chicken salad…read moreor a sandwich, and I also place large catering orders for my customers because they genuinely enjoy the food. Unfortunately, after my most recent experience, I won't be returning. I stopped in around 3:00 p.m. and was happy to see it wasn't busy. I went to the deli counter, waited for someone to serve me, ordered my chicken salad, grabbed a soda and chips, and headed to the open register. As I walked up, the cashier called another customer over ahead of me. I waited while he spent several minutes deciding whether to pay cash or by card because of the 4% card fee. I continued standing there with my three items, to the point that I actually set them down and debated walking out. Then, instead of helping me, the cashier motioned for an entire family to come to the registereven though I had been standing there waiting before they arrived. After that, she waved over another customer, and I had to wait while a mother and her two teenagers decided which desserts they wanted. Again, I stood there patiently. When it was finally my turn, there was no greeting, no "thank you for waiting," nothing. The first thing I was asked was, "Do you have a pickup order?" I said no. She then motioned for my chicken salad container, saying she needed it. I placed it on the scale and set my other items on the counter. The cashier then asked, "Are you okay?" I simply shook my head because, honestly, I wasn't. Instead of recognizing why I was frustrated, she continued talking, making comments, and escalating the interaction rather than simply ringing me up. At that point, I asked, "Do you want to argue? Do you want me to go back and forth with you?" I then asked who the manager was. She pointed to a woman beside her, who identified herself as the owner. I asked if she could ring me up instead. Even then, the cashier continued making comments. It was only after she continued engaging me that my voice became louder in response. Rather than addressing the repeated comments from her employee or asking what had happened, the owner immediately said, "Do not raise your voice at my employee." That response was disappointing. There was no concern for the customer experience, no apology for repeatedly being skipped in line, and no attempt to resolve the situation. There was also no acknowledgment that the interaction had been escalated by the cashier's continued remarks before I ever raised my voice. The irony is that I have spent a significant amount of money catering from Frankie's Deli over the years because my customers love the food. Good food will bring people in once. Great customer service keeps them coming back. Sadly, this experience ended that relationship for me. There are plenty of places with great food, but respect and customer service matter just as much. One final thought: this is Florida not NY. Hospitality goes a long way. The aggressive, dismissive attitude I experienced isn't what I expect when supporting a local business. I won't be back.
