    Tad's has been on the "try it" list for quite some time. I've heard rave reviews from locals and friends about it so when we needed a lunch to take with us kayaking yesterday around Rudee inlet, this was the day! Super friendly and easygoing staff inside. Lots of delicious sandwiches and wraps on the menu and you can make something of your own. I saw a ton of their sandwiches I'd love to come back and try. We chose to get the VB which was turkey, cheese, tomato and lettuce with bacon an house sauce (mayo, mustard, garlic, etc.) and it was SOoooo good! Loved it. Tasted great after a couple hours of kayaking. They make it fresh to order but do have some pastas and other things to take to go as well as delicious cookies (choc chip and red velvet) to throw in a bag. Or you can eat inside in the charming little dining area off to the right of the register. Plenty of sides to supplement as well as a bunch of flavors of chips - like 8-9 chips.

    Turkey sandwich

    So, so good. Super fresh meat, bread is soft and service is friendly and fast. I had the cold turkey sandwich and husband had egg salad, both were fabulous. The menu is full of options, both hot and cold. Plenty of seating if you want to stay and eat. We will be back!!

    Was told by a co-worker to check this place out... Decided to all go check it out was so good they decided to join us and check it out lol We all had different sandwiches(refer to pictures) and we all throughly enjoyed them all definitely will be back for round 2. The only complaint we had was the Au-ju was a bit on the bland side other than that perfection. 4/5 4/5

    Beach Decor!
    Daniel M.

    Stopped by on a Friday in April 2023, kinda busy and folks behind the counter seemed a bit overwhelmed. Slow, but whatever I have converted to "beach time" so stay cool! Ordered the "Combo" and the lady behind the Counter says what kind? I didn't say, "the only one on the menu" since that would have been rude. So I read the menu back to her and what is included on the sandwich. Also ordered the Walnut, Cranberry and Feta Garden Salad with Grilled Chicken Fajita Strips. Tad's was out of a couple of the dressing options? Salad was okay, but the chicken did not impress as something they whipped up in-house. Still like Tad's but not a Five-Star Visit either service or food wise!

    This is my go-to spot heading to or leaving the water. Sandwiches are one of my favorite beach foods. You can visit Tad's in in your swimsuit + cover up and not feel out of place ordering at the counter. They have a small lot with 6 dedicated parking spaces which is convenient. They have a large menu so there is something for everyone whether you're wanting a hot or cold sandwich. My go to is the Italian, but every time I look at their massive menu I tell myself that I'll branch out "next time." Solid, consistent, sandwiches. For COVID times they do have their dining room open limited capacity. They also have a small patio area. I have been getting it to go though. Staff were wearing masks and gloves.

    10th Street Wrap

    I found this place when I was out at Dam Neck for training and I was craving a deli sandwich. I tried a few of their sandwiches, my favorite has to be the 10th street wrap with a few substitutions. Cucumber instead of avocado, house dressing instead of honey mustard really elevates this wrap IMO. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu though. The staff is what sets this place apart. I'm only able to make it down every couple of weeks, but the ladies who work behind the counter remember my order every single time. That's the kind of service I had growing up in a small town, having that same experience here is like a little slice of home. This is my favorite spot to grab a bite to eat, I highly recommend making the trip down no matter where you're at.

    Amazing sandwiches!!!! My new to go spot for deli sandwiches. Tried the Reuben & Sailor sandwiches and we weren't disappointed. Happy Customers on a Monday afternoon.

    Turkey club with avocado and white American cheese. Red skin potato salad and coleslaw
    Bradley C.

    Bradley Cooper loves Tad's Deli i really worked up a fat appetite this morning with a 6 mile rollerblade at the VA beach oceanfront. i sat on the beach in the sun after in order to soak up the vitamin D and I said out loud to a close friend of mine, "you know what would fuck? a good sandwich." i looked up delis within walking distance and Tad's popped up. i said, "this is it. we're going to Tad's." i ordered a turkey club sandwich with avocado and white American cheese on sourdough. i opted out of the third slice of bread which is in the middle of most Tad's sandwiches. for sides i ordered the red skin potato salad and coleslaw. i am now one of the most satisfied customers of Tad's Deli. the sandwich was beautifully made; a lot of love and care went into making that sandwich. the ingredients were so fresh, so flavorful. it was a triumph. the sides left me speechless. the potato salad was perfect and well seasoned. the coleslaw wasn't overly dressed, it wasn't soggy and you could enjoy it. i washed it down with a diet Dr. Pepper because it's beach season, i'm no fool. 5 out of 5 Bradleys

    Tad's ROCKS! It is super delicious and a family favorite. No trip to Virginia Beach is complete without a trip or two to Tad's. My fav is the smoked Mahi Mahi.
