The line is usually out the door during the lunch rush, but don't worry...they'll get you through quick! Well-staffed with people that are excited to see you and excited to make you something delightful! Sandwiches (warm or cold) and salads are the name of the game! Choose your line, order it up as is or custom, and grab your soda/chips to make it a meal and you are set! On my latest visit, I had the Old Fashioned, which was perfect! Made a few swaps including a french roll, no tomatoes, add pickles! Perfect lunch size, great value, and quality ingredients! There's a reason people will wait in line for this spot! I can't recommend it enough!

I've been coming here for over 10 years, even before the ownership changed, so this review is disappointing for me to write. Unfortunately, this is now the second time my order has been messed up. I specifically ordered four toasted bagels, and not a single one was toasted. What makes this even more frustrating is that I live 40 minutes away and make the drive because I've always loved this place. I understand being busy, but repeatedly getting such a simple order wrong feels careless and inadequate, especially when customers are waiting so long and paying premium prices. It's very disheartening because after the last mistake, I told myself I probably wouldn't come back, yet I gave it another chance because of the loyalty I've had to this business for years. I truly hope they slow down enough to pay attention to quality and accuracy again, because long-time customers notice the difference. Not happy at all

Since it's become such a popular spot in Minneapolis, don't be surprised to see lines out the door on weekends -- getting there early is definitely the move.

I also really enjoyed the Ukrainian meatball with butter noodles and tomato cream sauce. Something about that combo is dreamy! The meatball is tender and the sauce is just the perfect balance of creamy and tomato-y. The restaurant side has a cafeteria-style setup. There's also a deli with so many meats, bread, snacks, and condiments. Service was fantastic and everyone was friendly. There's a small parking lot for use while shopping there but it can definitely fill up.

As always, I got the meatball with the tomato cream sauce; that sauce is the best!!!! We also got the pierogis but they weren't as good as usual, I think they were over fried and dry, and just didn't taste like I remember. Overall, I love this spot and the Eastern European comfort food they serve.

After hearing good things, I had to come check this place out for myself!…read more This is located in an unassuming building. I had to really look to see it was located on the corner in what looked like a business building. There is plenty of free parking. The service here was sweet and personable. There was an adorable African American woman working who was simply the sweetest! I wish we would have gotten her name! Excellent service from her!! We got a sandwich and a wrap! Both were done very well for being something so basic. My turkey bacon and ranch wrap was fresh! I would happily get this again! The drink options are in a can, not fountain and you can find plenty of chip options, included baked for my calorie counting friends! The seating is limited, so plenty of people took their meals to go like a Subway. There is also a small selection of sweet treats as well, but those will be for another trip! I would say if you are in the mood for a basic wrap, salad or sandwich done WELL, this is your place. No frills just done well!

I moved into the area about a half year ago and have passed this spot more times than I can count…read more I finally stopped in and was curious about their ultimate cheesesteak. I love myself a cheesesteak and I wanted to see if this would be a new favorite I'd enjoy wearing out. They loaded this sandwich with onions, green peppers, and mushrooms. They added some of their pasta sauce on the bottom as well. The sandwich was good, but I thought it needed a bit more flavoring/spices. The bread was some of the softest I've experienced though and the cheese was a good amount. The combo was paired with a pickle spear and a bag of potato chips. This may sound strange, but can potato chips steal the show? Because they did. Super crunch and salty. Yum-O! I tried their coleslaw too and it seemed like to sat there awhile. It was tasteless and I ended up throwing the pint out. I will say the staff here are very friendly and helped me decide on some sandwiches and gave me an honest review of their favorites and least favorites. I appreciate that. I'm sure those chips will bring me back in the future and I'll be open to trying another sandwich.

Finally visited Marinos Deli for a quick sandwich at lunch after I read a story about this…read moremom-and-pop business in NE Minneapolis. Conveniently located off Johnson NE (free parking on the street), this local restaurant serves up some good hoagies, sub-marino sandwiches (see what I did there?), pasta, and other Italian food. It's a unique restaurant because it's kind of like a deli and fast casual restaurant with a few tables inside, but when I arrived shortly after 1 pm, it was pretty empty. Overall, the service was great, it's a family-owned place and the mother and daughter were working and were very pleasant. The place smells terrific, if you like Italian food and good sauces. While the decor is a step-back in time, I really enjoyed the taxidermy walleyes which is a true reflection of being a Minnesota business. The sandwich I selected was good, came with a small bag of chips, and wasn't too pricey - the prices are actually pretty good, but the only thing I would say is the sizes aren't huge. I recommend Marinos if you are in the neighborhood and definitely want to try the pasta and meat ravioli next time!

I walked in and was greeted and 2 gentleman helped me as I was going to order 4 pounds of brisket and then after telling them what I wanted to do they recommended a chuck roast and that was exactly correct! I definitely mixed up the meat I needed to get but they helped. The prices were fantastic and they had such an assortment of meats to get their selection looked great! I definitely will be coming here again as I love supporting local and quality was fantastic! I'll leave you guys with a video of the chuck roast as it came out so tender and almost falling apart! Great quality meat and great customer service!
