    Greek salad, add ranch
    Scott S.

    Where to start. I was so impressed with this place. The vibe is so old school cozy pizzeria with the food to match. I started with a Greek salad which was crisp and fresh. I then had the small McKenna pizza which is porter peat pizza I've ever had! What a wonderful place. The staff was crazy nice and I just loved everything about it. It'll be a "always" when I'm in Memphis.

    Delicious!!! Flavorful! Crispy it checks all the yummy boxes!!

    The pizza was delicious and flavorful! The service was good, and the ambiance was quiet. I love it! It's a must-repeat on my list!

    Greek salad

    Service is great!! Super nice team. Always welcoming and hospitable. I ordered a sub to accompany my salad, but ate it and forgot to take a photo. But I will definitely come back and we'll share more images! The Greek salad is "chef kiss" delicious!! There's something special in that Italian dressing that just makes it taste even better. All the vegetables are fresh and crisp. I love the downtown location. You must visit!

    As a pizza expert I know a thing or two cause I've seen a thing or two. They do a lot of things right at little Italy. Great char love a crispy slice. Flavor is pretty decent. I'll go 8/10 decent slice

    Grandma's pizza was very burned.

    We ordered delivery during our visit to Memphis. What a disappointment. We ordered 2 pizzas. Both were burned. We ordered a sub also burned. The pesto pasta was bland and they forgot the chicken.

    Medium half cheese, half mushroom. Delicious!

    If you're a fan of NY style pie, this place is legit! Great crust, great sauce, everything was portioned perfectly, delicious! I stopped in for a late lunch and loved it. Will return.

    We always stop here on our way through Memphis. We have always loved it. They have changed owners and it's not the same. Not planning to go back.

    Anytime I'm anywhere near Hardtimes Deli, I have to stop in for what I consider the best Turkey…read moreBacon Ranch sub in the city. The combination of freshly baked bread, smoked turkey, pickled avocado, and crispy bacon creates an incredible flavor in every bite. The atmosphere is just as enjoyable as the food. With its laid-back vibe and cozy seating, it's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. Today, I paired my sandwich with Jalapeño Ranch Sea Salt chips, and to top it all off, I grabbed a Jarritos Pineapple soda--the perfect drink to complement an already amazing lunch. If you're looking for a delicious sandwich and a welcoming place to unwind, Hardtimes Deli is definitely worth a visit.

    This place is fantastic. I have gotten sandwiches here a few times and they never disappoint. They…read moreare packed full of meat and toppings and many of the sandwiches put a unique spin on classics. The staff are always super welcoming. The only downside is the price, as spending ~$20 on a sandwich is never fun, but it seems like that's just about everywhere these days. However, if you're not that hungry, these sandwiches can be stretched to 2 meals to keep the cost down. A few of my favorites are the Turkey Bacon Ranch and the SSS Chopped Cheese. THEY ALSO HAVE CANNED GATORADE. IYKYK Being able to pop over to Slowdown Dry Goods next door while you wait for your food is a big plus. They always have some cool stuff to check out while you wait.

    I took a pic of our sandwiches, potato salad and kimchi to send to my son in Dallas to brag that Memphis finally has a real Deli!
