    FAST, CLEAN, FRIENDLY If you're in a rush order via phone for pick up. Sandwich was prepared properly. Lettuce and tomato were FRESH!!! Overall good place for a breakfast sandwich.

    Fantastic old school deli with best potato salad. Gotta try it to believe it. I also loved coffee

    Who wants to eat Yellow lettuce?

    This place is horrible and I can't believe how deceiving the ratings are Pros- the homemade turkey breast is delicious -Bob and the other older guys put in great effort and make very good iced coffee Cons- when the older guys don't work(WHICH SEEMS TO BE EVERY SINGLE AFTERNOON): - The iced coffee is terrible(light and sweet Iced coffee is always bitter and has an inch of sugar sitting at the bottom to crunch while you drink) - Very high prices for iced coffee(like $6?)and low quality sandwiches - Burnt my bread completely and still served it to me - Months later I gave them another try and received a pile of Yellow lettuce on my expensive sandwich - Ordered two of the same drink and received two completely different looking drinks Overall, other than walking in and confirming that you will be served by Bob or one of the other older guys; I would find a different deli

    Classic italian

    Great classic new york deli. If you have a craving for a cold cut sandwich, why go anywhere else. They also have large coolers of homemade teas and lemonades. Potato salad is a great side for your meal. They have a great selection of cold cuts. Anytime you have a craving stop by, the staff is friendly and helpful

    Can you spare some turkey on my $10 sandwich??

    This is my neighborhood deli and I keep going back 2x/yr in the hope of a decent experience. Yes, they have good potato salad, yes, they have good crumb cake, but so do ALL deli's. A good deli makes reliably good sandwiches that make your mouth water when you drive by. My experience is that the Douglaston deli sandwiches either have too much salt or are lacking in the ingredients (I now ask purposely for no salt). Today I ordered one of their 'special' sandwiches, a turkey with avocado, onion, lettuce, and tomato. Add in a bag of chips (2 items) and it was about $16!! Ok, a good sandwich is worth it. I get home open it up and I was so disappointed, very disappointed. Barely no turkey (1/4 inch at its thickest), avocado on each half of the sandwich was about three thumbnail size pieces!! And the roll was a bit stale and crusty. I was so angry, and threw half of it away, and then had to floss and brush my teeth to get the flavor out of my mouth. And also, all day since eating it I have had gas attacks. This place may have had its day, maybe the costs of ingredients and rents mean they have to over charge, OK, but why is the sandwich quality so poor and inconsistent?? Stay away from this place unless you need some milk, some twinkies, some potato salad, and some crumb cake, everything else you can get at the grocery store more cheaply and without the pain to your wallet and your gastrointestinal system. Please guys, your our neighborhood deli, where's the beef, where is the service, the quality control???

    Came here Saturday about 10min before they opened. There was no line and in fact, there was already…read morea solo customer eating inside. Even though they open at 11:30am, we were able to still be seated 10min beforehand. I guess they finished prepping early and were already ready for service. Within 30min of opening, people slowly trickled in. But even when we left, there was no line. So I would recommend to just go first thing in the morning. We ordered the kimchi mandoo, Dweji-gomtang (large), and the lard donkatsu. The kimchi mandoo was too spicy for me, but that's bcus I have a low tolerance for spice. My bf enjoyed it though, the skin was nice and thin. I really liked the Dweji-gomtang, it was so simple yet so comforting and it came with a lot of thin slices of meat. The donkatsu was good, but I thought the pork was a tad dry.

    We first discovered Okdongsik in Seoul, so my hubby was beyond excited when he found out they had…read morelocations in NYC. It definitely lived up to our memories, we ended up coming back twice in one week! Between our visits, we ordered the Dweji-Gomtang with extra pork, the Layoo Dweji-Gomtang with extra pork (spicy version), Kimchi Mandoo, Gabrisal Soyuk (pork collar meat), and the So-Bbol Gomtang (beef cheek, brisket, and tripe). Everything was delicious, but the standout for us was the pork collar meat. It was incredibly tender, flavorful, and an absolute must-order. The portions are just the right size, and the restaurant has a fast-casual feel, making it perfect for a quick meal without sacrificing quality. Our kids especially loved the original Dweji-Gomtang. After trying both versions, I personally prefer the original pork soup over the spicy Layoo version, although both were excellent. The complimentary kimchi deserves a special mention - it was fresh, flavorful, and the perfect accompaniment to the soups. The Kimchi Mandoo also had a nice spicy kick while still being packed with flavor. We noticed a lot of the guests were ordering the Lard Donkatsu, so that's definitely on our list for our next visit. Safe to say we'll be back again and again!

I like their food because it's simple, tasty, and comes out quickly. The Khong Rou Fan is comforting and flavorful, and the Niu Rou Mian is always a good choice when you want something warm and satisfying. The string beans were a nice light appetizer to start. It's kind of a semi-service place -- you order at the counter and clean up after yourself when you're done, so there's no need to leave a tip if you dine in. The cashier who took our order is always nice, friendly, and polite, which makes the experience pleasant. The place is also always clean, which I appreciate. Overall it's a good spot when you want a quick, easy meal without a long wait.

The good- plenty of meat in Lou Rou Fan, the texture of stinky tofu, the no tipping but bus your own tray business model. Friendliness of staff behind the ordering counter. The so-so: not enough fragrance in stinky tofu, the slightly soggy/oily pork chop, and lack of fragrance in Taiwanese sausage. The somewhat expensive price( our lunch costing $56 total). Will probably revisit another time to see how other dishes taste and see what price point it will result in.

When we got home, we realized that one of the soups for the beef noodles was missing, so we called and Mama Lee rectified the situation right away. She was extremely apologetic and states that due to the fridged weather, they were lower in staff and things got busy so a mistake was made. We did have to drive back to pick up the order, but customer service was excellent. We tried the beef noodle soup ($22), salt and pepper chicken ($22), Taiwanese pork chops ($22), sauté string beans ($22), 3 cup chicken ($22). The beef noodle soup was fantastic. Broth was savory, and portion size for the noodles and beef was enough for 2 people. The beef was thick, tender, and delicious. I did wish the noodles clung onto the soup more, but I just took a sip of soup between bites and was still satisfied. I thought the sauté string beans, and 3 cup chicken were fine. I could taste the wok hay. I wish the salt and pepper chicken had more salt and pepper flavor. We weren't a fan of the pork chops though. Overall, we would definitely come again for the beef noodle soup. We were informed that there is an additional 3% added on if you pay with card.
