    Not bad I have not been here for a while and I remember the sandwiches being a little bit bigger…read moreback in the day. this occasion I came in on a Saturday around lunchtime and it was pretty packed. The line was so long. I could barely get in the door. The line also moved very slowly. Once I finally made it to the counter, I placed my order. Just ordered three corn beef sandwiches on rye with Swiss and spicy mustard. I wanted to have them grilled so it took a little bit longer for them to be prepared. Once I was done there, I headed over to the cash register area. I grabbed a couple of bags of chips to go along with the sandwiches. I wanted to get a regular iced tea out of their refrigerator area. Unfortunately, the only kind they had was peach tea so even though it's not what I really wanted, I still got one. I decided to dine in to have my sandwich fresh and hot. Overall, the flavor was good. Was not piled high with corn beef like I've had at other places, but it was still pretty good.

    Nope! This place…read moreused to be a gem. I would visit the downtown location for breakfast and lunch. I've been visiting this location for breakfast exclusively. No more! I visited on 4.28.2026 for breakfast. I ordered a side of breakfast potatoes, bacon, scrapple. The breakfast potatoes tasted like the old lukewarm potatoes you get from a hotel lobby. Six bucks!! The bacon was ok. Just ok. The scrapple was good. The hot tea (Lipton Tea Bag)... chef's kiss!! I'm good on this place. I had a great run w them for many years.

    Finding the restaurant itself was easy, but parking was another story -- the one‑way street and…read moresmall lot made it a challenge. When we walked in, the cashier immediately asked whether we were dining in or taking out. We chose to dine in. We ordered the roast beef sandwich and the pastrami sandwich, along with potato pancakes. They brought out a full assortment of pickles and pickled vegetables. Unfortunately, they only offer one diet option: Dr Pepper Zero, no other diet sodas from the fountain or in bottles. The potato pancakes were a disappointment -- mostly batter with very little shredded potato. The pickled vegetables also lacked flavor and didn't really taste pickled. Our table wasn't cleared at any point during the meal, and the waiter stood nearby waiting for us to finish, which felt a bit uncomfortable. The desserts looked amazing, but we were too full to try them. We also couldn't take anything to go since we had plans for the rest of the day and didn't want it sitting in the car. Next time, we'll come back specifically to try the desserts.

    I am from Philadelphia and grew up on AUTHENTIC NYC style Jewish Delis. I moved to B'more in 2015…read moreand was shocked how lacking the Deli scene was; especially considering it's Jewish population. When Essen FIRST opened I was relieved...finally a solid Deli. However, as you know it slowly deteriorated until I stopped patronizing it. I was initially happy to see it changed ownership. Reading the reviews however, it seems it is continuing to be SUBPAR! The Management apologies are scripted(cut & paste) for goodness sakes!! I think I'll pass! Fortunately, when I go back home periodically, I have several solid authentic options.

    There used to be several Santonis markets around Baltimore. I think this is the last remaining…read morelocation, and the only one I can remember visiting. Though my grandmother used to love and shop at the long closed dundalk location, so I grew up with Santoni's. Oddly enough, if I look out my apartment window, I can see the building where the dundalk store once resided. We needed a pie, because it was pi day. In the past, Jeremy and I have visited much larger, chain grocery stores on pi day, we've come up empty-handed. Santoni's did not disappoint. We got a gorgeous lemon meringue pie, and it was discounted several dollars, which made it all the sweeter. The store is small, but clean with an air about it that suggests that the owners are proud of it. They should be.

    Come for the made-to-order deli counter; it's worth traveling out of your way. If you order in…read moreadvance, you do not have to wait. If you are waiting, browse the aisles for excellent made-on-premises baked goods and a variety of pantry staples different and more upscale than found in conventional grocery stores. There is no place to sit down and eat; maybe Santoni's missing a bet through this decision? Yes, Santoni's will separate you from your money (an Oatmeal canister is double the cost found in a full-sized grocery), but you will be happy with anything they make here from scratch, and your stomach will be too. In the past they also have done a top-notch job with catering orders. If you are ordering an office lunch, look no further!
