Seating Area at Jae's Deli
Mark K.

We took lunch at this deli while visiting a partner company. They took us here because the day was busy and it was in the same complex as their office. This is clearly one of those establishments set up to primarily cater to the clientele in or around their little business campus. It opens for breakfast, closes by 3:30 PM and is not open on weekends. So the hours give a clue with regard to its target market. It was starting to get busy when we walked in. The exterior appearance fit into the development of which it was a part. The interior was relatively plain in appearance but it was clean. There was only limited seating available and we were fortunate to find a couple of free tables at which the six of us could sit. It took good timing as we got our food when a couple of other parties were leaving. The menu was what you would expect of a deli. As one would anticipate, it was a walk-up-and-order format. The person waiting on us behind the counter was polite and efficient. I had the Power Salad with Grilled Chicken. It was actually a solidly good salad. My colleagues also all seemed satisfied with their choices. The prices were reasonable as most items were under $10. Overall, for what it is, this place is a pretty good choice for lunch if you happen to be in the area. It is nothing elegant but you can get some basic choices that are common midday fare. The atmosphere is pretty utilitarian as most of the patrons come within walking distance for a quick noon break. The prices seem quite reasonable so it is a decent bargain. I think it would be well described as a convenient choice for a quick in-and-out meal that won't be memorable. However, at the same time, it won't leave you hungry and won't break the bank.

Cheese Steak Combo $7.99 + Tax

Very clean and lots of seating! Very busy during lunch hour however they were preparing each order very quickly and it was arriving hot and fresh! When I walked inside 2 ladies were at cash register taking customers orders and 3 ladies plus a man were preparing and cooking orders! I believe this deli owned by nice asian people! My 8" Philly Cheese Steak Sub Combo was $7.99 plus Tax ($8.46 after Tax) which is very reasonable for the quality of their sandwich and amount of Fries and Medium sized fountain drink! I will come back to try other foods they have on their menu!

Bmore Judgemental ..

So I hate to be the Debbi downer of Columbia's business park, but I would say that the food quality of Jae's deli is average at best. Their breakfast sandwiches appear to use the absolute cheapest ingredients that are available. It's almost as if they searched for the cheapest bread they could find. The reason why everyone is so excited about this place, isn't because of the quality or the service, it's simply because they exist. If you feel like abusing your arteries before 9:00 am on a Friday to make yourself feel incrementally better about your life, Jae's exists. If you're swamped with meetings all day and can't afford to take more than a 15 minute lunch break, Jae's exists. What bothers me about this establishment is that they take full advantage of their small monopoly. Having no competition in the immediate area has resulted in an uninspired menu that takes every single shortcut possible. Instead of taking pride in the food they are serving their community, Jae's has opted to sling greasy, mediocre food at it's guests.. but hey, at least they do it with a smile and at least they exist.

Place is a zero. Quality of the food is atrocious. It feels like you are eating prison food. The prices are ridiculous. Stay away.

Stumbled upon this place while looking for a deli shop. It was easy to find but you can tell it…read moregets busy. The place is a good size but on the smaller side. They have a variety of sandwiches, salads and soups. As well as pastries and glass bottled drinks. Staff were friendly and helped me decide which sandwich to choose since it was my first time there. I went with the Picante Chicken sandwich which has a good amount of heat from their house made picante sauce, tasted delicious and the bread was soft and fresh. I also got the potato salad as a side. The portion is small but a great sample size for me to determine if I want a bigger size next time, which I will get a bigger size my next visit. Overrall, great first sandwich, awesome service. Also saw alot of people come pick up their order. Can't wait to go back!

My understanding is that all of the baked goods are made from scratch fresh daily in the restaurant. So the breads are great. The various sandwiches and other lunchtime mains are fantastic. Service is great -- the staff is always polite and happy. Definitely not quiet but not loud at all. It is very small with limited and tight tables. Buddy and I sat outside today to eat, surprisingly. It's mid-winter.

I picked it up on my way home from the airport, and had to wait over 20 minutes for the wrap to be made. However, it was very good. I wish it had more chicken, but the Caesar flavor was amazing and tasty. The homemade sweet potato chips were the star of the show. Both salty and sweet, and something I would definitely go back for. The wrap was gigantic and was perfectly fine to eat a couple days later. Inside the shop, it was small but I would definitely consider eating there in the future.

Hubby and I had Nashville style burgers, the kids had burgers and grilled cheese sandwiches. The kid meals come with a side and a dish. For the adult meals it's only the sandwich. We ordered a side of home made chips and they were crispy and delicious. The sandwiches were really good! The table next to us ordered the chicken wrap and that looked amazing!! I'll be sure to order that next time. The place was pretty full and there were a lot of people coming and going picking up orders to go. Not a lot of tables inside, and a few outside.

Turn the phone off, extend the online ordering ETA and catch up the orders of those standing there in person. The young lady at the counter was calm and collected and appeared to be unfairly inundated with the work load. I placed my order via the Eataliano website and it advised of 30-40 min wait. Arrived and there did not seem to be an organized approach. Ended up waiting a total of 1:10min for 1 crab pizza, 1 calamari. The calamari appeared to be promising however, it was rubbery and the amount of marinara was very short (order extra). 2.5-3.0 on the calamari. Maybe being served hot off the press makes a difference. (Unsure of if tickets were coming up in rhythm). Crab pizza was tasty and could stand to have another whole crab on it. For the amount of crab, I would say it was a VERY expensive small pizza. 3.0 It was a Saturday late afternoon and it was busy for sure. I would give this place another try but perhaps get the timing down to being able to snag the limited seating. Have a snack and pack your patience. Not a total bomb but, management needs figure out how to expedite the kitchen making it more efficient. Too expensive for mediocre.

Been here quite a few times over the years. Wasn't greeted by one of the staff members when I…read morewalked in, but one of the owners came out and took my order, and greeted me so i wasn't too bothered. This place is spacious and clean. Bigger than most deli's I've encountered. My steak and cheese omelette came out really fast, which was nice, I'd give it a solid 6. The home fries were decent as well. Nothing was overwhelmingly good but it wasn't bad either. It kinda was one of those was what it was meals from a corner deli with a really large menu. Overall, I enjoyed myself & would continue to come back when I'm in the mood for something pretty good.

The size of the sandwich is fine as far as normal sandwiches go, but it's small for a cheese steak. There wasn't much meat in there and it was a bit bland. The bites with cheese had the most flavor. I didn't dislike it; it was just okay. The fries were good and fresh. I don't really go for the battered fries, but if you like that batter you'll love these. They were definitely hot and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. They were really kind. I'd made an order online that they didn't notice, so they started on my sandwich as soon as they realized their mistake. I was waiting less than 10 minutes; there was no one else in the store, so I got all of their attention.
