    a sub sandwich cut in half
    Anna K.

    I'm new to the food scene in Danbury. I was craving an italian sub and found Lou's Deli, which is located right near me. I went during lunch time and there was a good amount of people waiting but the line moved fast. I got a bag of chips and a italian combo on a sub and the total came out to about $12. The sandwich was about 12" in size and filled with deli meat. For the size of the sandwich, I felt like it was an amazing deal. I couldn't finish the whole thing in one seating, had to save the rest of next day.

    I wish I lived closer to Lou's! I was in the office three days this week. I knew I wanted to have lunch out at Lou's. My lasagna soup when I saw this on their menu board I thought to myself wait, what? Amazing! I love lasagna and on a cold day this soup is just what I needed. Then my cuban panini - the amount of the pulled pork was overflowing! I love pickles and then the spicy mustard a must have. Lou's has so much to offer. Give them a taste / try.

    Lou and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. The food has always been delicious in my opinion, I usually get a chicken cutlet or an Italian. Great spot for a good sandwich.

    Lou's is exactly what I needed. On a trip from NY to Connecticut, I typed in deli into yelp and Lou's came up. It did not disappoint. I ordered the Italian combo and a meatball sub and both were excellent. They were also HUGE. I took a picture next to a giant can of Arizona iced tea so you can see how big these sandwiches/subs are. You get your money's worth. I would definitely come back here.

    Absolutely amazingly crafted sandwiches and great ingredients. Definitely check it out.

    Authentic NY Italian Deli, I haven't found anything in the area that comes close. Fantastic selection of prepared foods, pasta and sandwiches. Delightful staff as well.

    Best broccoli rabe egg and mozzarella ever!

    Lou's is has the best subs in the entire area. No sub comes close. Huge fresh rolls, and a gargantuan amount of meat and cheese.

    Butcher's Best Market - Roasted beef and Swiss on hard roll

    I stopped by during my travels looking for a sandwich and just loved the whole set up of the place…read more There is a butcher area for all kinds of meats, all looked fresh and of great quality. Customers were coming in to pick up their meat orders. The deli area offers a variety of cold and hot sandwiches, salads, sides. Great selection. I ordered a roast beef and Swiss on a hard roll, with coleslaw and horseradish sauce. It was fantastic! The meat was flavorful and plentiful and that homemade slaw added a great little kick. They also have baked breads and goodies. I left with a sourdough bread and a choc chip cookie. There are some tables outside to eat. They also sell unwashed, unrefrigerated chicken eggs from a local farm. So great! I did buy these, but somehow they didn't make it into my bag which I did not discover until I got home, but other than that, service was super friendly and helpful. So refreshing to have quality customer service. The store is well organized, nicely decorated, and extremely clean. I recommend a stop in and I will make a point to return as soon as possible.

    This is the best place in town to get really high-quality meat. Steve and John can be found there…read morejust about every day and they are two of the nicest people in town. They care about the town, community and the quality of meat they provide. The prices might be a little bit higher than what you would find at a local grocery store, but I promise you it's worth the money. They make everything in-house from bacon, breakfast sausage, steak tips, and they have the best pork chops around. When I have people over for dinner this is almost always where I will go to pick up what I need for dinner.

    Minas Carne is an authentic Brazilian barbeque restaurant and delicatessen that opened in Danbury,…read moreConnecticut in 1997. It was founded by the Reyes Family of restaurateurs, which includes Luis, Juan & Richard. The Reyes Family immigrated to the United States from the Dominican Republic in 1990. The first eatery they opened in 1991 was Amigo's Deli & Carniceria, which is still going strong today. In 1997, the family opened Minas Carne, which features authentic Brazilian BBQ and traditional sides served in a fast-casual environment. It quickly became a popular staple in Danbury. In 2020, the Reyes Family opened Mariposa Taqueria. It closed in 2026, but the Reyes Family plan to turn it into a second location for Minas Carne which will open soon. I have eaten at Minas Carne numerous times over the years. The restaurant is 400 feet away from Western Connecticut State University's Midtown Campus, and it has long been a popular food option for WestConn students. I myself attended WestConn for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. Recently I was in Danbury to see a concert, so I decided to stop by Minas Carne for some dinner beforehand. Everything is buffet style here and the line moves quickly. I grabbed a platter and loaded up on some sides such as "White Rice", "Yellow Rice", "Brown Beans", "Meat & Bean Stew", "Fried Chicken", "Beef Stew", and "Seasoned Plantains". Then I headed to the star of the show: the brick-oven charcoal barbeque pit. I asked for a little bit of "Pork Tenderloin" as well as some "Linguiça". Everything was delicious! There's a reason why I've been coming back here again and again for over 20 years. If you're looking for an authentic Brazilian BBQ experience then I highly recommend Minas Carne!

    Mina's has great garlic steak and chicken wings, and I love their yellow rice and collard greens…read more But today's visit felt like I was ripped off. I loaded up the container with rice and collard greens, got 3 chicken wings and garlic steak, and paid $41. It was 2.7 lbs charged at $14.05. But the posted prices were $10.99/lb for combo and $14.49 for meat only. How do they determine pricing? Obviously, it looks like I got only all meat in the photo, but it's sitting on top of rice and collard greens, which, by the way, the rice is very heavy since I got a lot of it. I think that's just a bit deceptive when a restaurant does that kind of crap to their customers. I saw one review from years ago that they do arbitrarily change pricing when they think you got more meat on your plate. That's just plain wrong.
