    Recently renovated!
    Gabriella D.

    Hands down one of my favorite places to frequent. It's great because they are always pleasant, and I'm there pretty regularly (okay, yeah, daily basis). I come here so much I don't even check in anymore, but if I did, you would say 1,289 check-ins and I would look like a weirdo, and you would wonder why is she here so much!? The location is perfect because it's in front of the closest train on the block, so I can always grab something if I'm on the go. If you know anything about me, I am a fan of healthy food. Well, they have successfully accomplished that. I believe they have looked at the demographics of the neighborhood, so they have specialty foods for Asians and Middle Easterns. There's a deli which is super popular with teens after school, but it's also ideal for commuters to regularly get their coffee/herbal tea or whatever quick breakfast they are going to get on the way to the train. I have seen plenty of other regulars there who see me so often we feel like we know each other without even knowing each other's names lol. It seems as if it was recently renovated to include a chandelier, new floors and possibly other updates such as a well lit sign on the outside. In short, they take care of their customers, they take care of this place, and they are in tuned to what people want and they do their best to give it to them. I can imagine that they are a neighborhood staple here to stay.

    Chopped Cheese

    First chopped cheese I ever had and it was delicious! The way the hamburger grease melded together with the bread, cheese and ketchup was incredible!

    Chicken w rice n salad. Real good.

    Never been here but my mother raves about this place. So I finally gave them a try. Family owned n operated. 2nd time ordering from here through delivery, spoke with owner extremely polite, food is great even with jus only ordering from here twice. Delivery does take a bit because food is made when order so I'm definitely willing to wait. So far I've tried, Chipotle chicken w lettuce tomato n cheddar cheese. Chicken over rice w salad n my niece's had there chopped cheese sandwich which they love, they also have diff pastries huge, donuts was able to eat half n save the other half for later. Will be trying more from there menu.

    They serve decent food at an affordable price. Their chop cheese is good but too oil(the grease makes it take but I doubt you'll feel good after a chop cheese hero), nice blend of mayo and ketchup sauce, also there should be more cheese for something called chopped cheese I would want it to be a little cheesier , the rice platters is good, has carrots,cucumber,tomatoes and peppers as the salad. I didn't like the burgers.

    can't miss it

    There's a number of tiny bodegas in Bay Ridge now which add a hot grill/sandwich counter to their business as Sakmans has done. But Sakmans surely is one to marvel at. The variety of dishes coming out of this pint-sized corner business is astonishing. Enormous menu. I'm not lying when I assure you I've had a winner with every meal I've ordered. In particular, the 'cheeseburger deluxe' is just bang-on. Recently, craving a burger I went to McDonald's and McDonald's is so horrible these days I almost barfed it right back up. I truly felt as if I was eating garbage. I should've come here instead. The cheeseburger you get here tastes how McDonald's used to taste, many years ago. Big, meaty, sloppy, slidey, moist, hot. A real treat! And you can order fries, curly fries, curly Spanish fries, or onion rings on the side. The o-rings here are the way that Burger King *used to* make their onion rings. Service is always courteous, prices cheap, and the place is always bustling. Its just grand to see a humble little joint doing a 5-star job in the area that warms a man's heart--fast, hot food. Hurrah!

I waited for about 45 minutes, while waiting I picked up my chips and a white peach ginger ale. I also talked to the girl in front and she explained that you can get your sandwhich on a hero or roll. I ordered a chopped honey turkey with onions, pickles, lettuce and mayo. The guy who made my sandwich was soo friendly and patient. I just put my trust in him to hook it up lol. He also asked if I wanted to add the chips and I did. Overall my sandwhich was better the next day after it firmed up. The flavor was good but the texture was soft, mushy and just not what I want in a turkey sandwhich. It ran me about 12.00 and it was worth the experience.

The original name was called laurose and tuna salad chopping has been happening for over four decades. My fort green family really know what it is. My cousin and I stopped by yesterday and picked up a couple of heroes. I had to get my beef salami and 3 pepper colby jack cheese, extra mayo, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles, on a whole wheat hero (10.99) . Much love to a family staple for years. Definitely a place for you to pick up a sandwich that won't break the bank.

If that's not the most Brooklyn thing ever, I don't know what is. Same sandwiches, different blessing. Everybody says order the pastrami, so I listened like a grown man should. Pastrami on rye with spicy mustard absolutely slapped. Smoky, juicy, perfectly stacked, and messy enough to ruin your shirt with honor. Then came the beef brisket on rye with a cup of au jus for dipping... and brother, that dip should be studied by scientists. Pure perfection. Washed everything down with a Dr. Brown's root beer like it was 1957. No fake trendy nonsense. No deconstructed sandwiches. Just old-school deli greatness that punches you directly in the soul. Great food doesn't care where you come from -- it just brings everybody to the same table. That's New York. That's Brooklyn.

I went with two friends so were able to try three different sandwiches and to be honest, they were all just alright. The food: Roast Pork Special- Fried Eggplant, Provolone, Broccoli Rob- The texture of the pork came off a bit dry, the eggplant was good but kinda gets lost in the sandwich so if I literally had it on it's own I would have appreciated it more but who eats fried eggplant by itself? The rob was nice it added a nice crunch but didn't offer that much flavor. Giuseppe Special- Eggplant parm, meatballs, melted mozzarella. I couldn't get over how soggy the bread was. It was like wet paper towel to me. Soggy bread and everything kinda tasting the same made it underwhelming. Nicky Special- It just tasted like salad in between bread. There was so much veg, that was the main thing I remember in that sandwich.
