I had a great experience at New York City Deli. I ordered a turkey sandwich, and it was excellent. They make it really easy to fully customize your sandwich, which I appreciate, and they use high-quality Boar's Head meats--you can definitely taste the difference. My wife got the Italian which is her staple lunch selection. She really enjoyed her sandwich and a 1/2 was plenty for her. Portion-wise, it was perfect for me. I'm not someone who needs huge servings, and the sandwich was just the right size--honestly, it worked well as a half sandwich for lunch across two days. For a couple bucks more, you can get extra meat Which we did not do. Great quality, flexible options, and a practical portion size. I'll definitely be back. read more

New York City Deli - Menu - Delis Near Me - Bourbonnais, Illinois

Great sandwiches. The roll are nice and soft leaving you to enjoy the meat better. The selection of meat is endless. The ambiance is not great but better great food than plants and doodads all around. The staff was very helpful..this was the first time there and the owner stopped and chatted..what a nice guy who seems to really care about providing the best deli experience. We will definitely be back the next time in the area. read more

Well, it looks like the new owners changed the whole system around before you used to get two deli meats and two cheeses at a foot-long submarine bread but now the new owners took over and you only get one deli meat, one cheese, a smaller submarine bread and they jacked up the prices to almost $15 a sandwich. Very sad. You should go back to what the original owner had provided for the customers read more

Stopped in on the way to Chicago for lunch. The food was delicious . The bread was soft and fresh and the Italian sub amazing. The white turkey chili was light and flavorful. I highly recommend. read more

I ordered the Big New Yorker which was supposed to be corned beef and pastrami. When I get home, 40 minutes away, I got an NYC Special which is roast beef and turkey. They had it marked correctly on their order checklist but made the wrong sandwich. The toppings on it obviously were for the wrong sandwich too, which made it less appetizing. They need to get their sandwiches straight. read more

Top notch ingredients. Sandwiches are always fresh and made as ordered. My favorites are the Italian or the Cajun turkey. Orders always done in a timely fashion! How highly recommended of your looking for a fresh sandwich! read more

Perfectly made sandwiches! Fresh. Fresh, fresh ingredients!! Employees behind the counter were incredibly kind & helpful for newcomers .

Hey this place has good meat for all sandwiches choice of breads and and sides Great service Just a tiny little building but ambiance is great for a sandwich shop read more

Nice front counter . Lots of options of meat and cheeses. Enjoyed the NYC special, was a great sandwich.

My wife went in around lunch time to pick up lunch. She let me know it's a really cute inside spot with an area to sit and eat. We got the Super Ham Delight and everything and a side of potato salad. Amazing. Tasty. It was packed, cut and presented beautifully. I have had plenty of deli sandwiches from NYC and this was comparable, especially in the middle of Illinois. It was warm when it got to me, the meat is stuffed and piled, pickle crisp! I loved the way they wrapped it up and cut it perfectly. My wife had the pastrami on a roll and it was so flavorful and perfect. She had just cheese and a pickle and it was a great lunch. The potato salad is SO good, it doesn't have a ton of flair, it is thin hand cut potatoes with dressing, and honestly it doesn't need anything else. I can't wait to try more of their tasty goods!! read more

Stopped by to pick up some sandwiches to bring to Kankakee River State Park. The people working there were friendly and everyone was wearing masks. We ordered a reuben, italian and a pasta salad. The sandwiches were big and the ingredients were fresh. I prefer my deli meat cut a little thinner, but that's just my preference. Decent spot for a freshly made deli sandwich. read more

Sandwiches were good, but they are nothing special. It doesn't live up to what I was expecting. There are other chain sandwich shops that have better sandwiches. That being said, I'd come back, but it wouldn't be my first choice. read more

I needed to stop for gas and I missed lunch so I jumped on Yelp to see what's around and NYC deli showed up, it's probably a chain that I have never seen but I'm going over because what if it's not and I don't know. The place is next to a gas station in a small strip mall that is so easy to miss. Well if it is a chain it's done very well with real deli cases, stainless slicer and they only serve Boars Head meat and cheeses, no Subway fake meat here. Right off the bat I liked the quality meats and cheeses from one company so now I'm thinking this might not be a chain and it's not, it's the only one they tell me. Some reviews say you can buy the meats in the store and make your own but that's just not true because by the time you buy the breads, cheeses, meats, condiments etc the sandwich would be $20 when you are done, no one buys carl budding garbage meats to make subway at home. The place has a small seating area with small tables and chairs and at 2 ish pm it was full. They did a great job at recreating an old school deli with two slanted cold cases displaying the meats, pickles, sides, cheeses and good looking sweet treats. I like the menu because it has dedicated sandwiches or a list of the meats and cheeses to create your own. After you choice the basic sandwich i.e. meats you have total control over the out come, size, hot or cold, cheese, breads, toppings and spreads so if you don't like what you got it's your fault. The options are endless so you could eat here once a week for a year and never have the same sandwich. Everything sounded good but I settled on the Big New Yorker not knowing that I had to build it so I had the white roll, pastrami, corn beef, Swiss, mayo, red onion, lettuce, tomato, thick pickles served cold style. There is some kind of tasty crack like sprinkle that finishes off the sandwich that's just completes the sandwich. My first bit was like wow this is pretty good, nice quality meats, soft fresh roll, fresh toppings, pickles more like cucumbers so not over powering and secret seasoning just playing well together. My first thought was this is reminding me of the picnic basket in Wauwatosa Wi which serves top quality sandwiches that no chain can touch. Overall this place is doing sandwiches to a higher degree than any chain so if your in the area or fortunate live in the area stop by and get one. I knew it was too good to be a chain after my first tasting and I will probably never be in the area again to get another one, what a dam shame because they make a point of putting out great product and it shows. read more

New York City Deli - The Classic Club... so good. - Delis Near Me - Bourbonnais, Illinois

Good stuff, pastrami sandwich, yum! Tater salad, you, but more old world than your typical blaazee' drive thru. Yum. Overall 4/5 for the three t's .. $ vs size ratio not so much the NY size you'd expect. All boars head meats so, good but not dynamic. Stop here again? Extremely likely! If you eat outside, understand that convent rd is emergency boulevard..... getting off 57 may be easy but getting back on requires navigational understanding, either maps or electronic services. read more

The staff is friendly, and they make a mean sandwich. Pretty good pricing for how much food you're getting

A little expensive but worth it! Food is excellent! Owners are great people and we love the caramel apple grapes!!!

I've been here a few times in the last couple of weeks. The staff is very friendly. All the sandwiches are huge and unbelievably good! Great chip selection. Very good fresh desserts. When I'm in the mood for a good lunch I can only think about this place. I can't even think about going back to the chain places. Not sure how I did it for so many years. Check this place out. You can't go wrong. I'm looking forward to buying all my deli meats for home here also. Thanks for everything New York City Deli Kevin read more

Service is usually very quick and the food is excellent. Quality ingredients you won't see at the chain style sandwich shops.

The spicy chicken was so good, it was . Place is clean, the workers were nice and really down to Earth. I can't wait to go back and try their different sandwiches. They carry all boats head meat which superior quality. read more

Delicous. Boars head meats are the best. I just love that they use this brand. Reccomend

Good place, just not my style. Very different sub than expected, but I enjoy other chains more.

A really good little sandwich place that's incredibly easy to miss because of its small, out of the way location. Prices may be *just* a hair shy of reaching Subway standards but the taste is unbelievably satisfying and the location is cozy, not to mention never too busy. Saw this listed on here as the best restaurant in all of Bradley, and while it's far from that it's still undoubtedly one of the better ones I've been to. read more

Good, quality healthy sandwiches here with Boar's Head products. The small place is clean. One little suggestion that might improve the sandwiches is to also toast/heat the bread for the hot sandwiches (customer can pick hot or cold) and not just the meat portion. read more
