    Very happy with both our sandwiches, and italian and a roast beef. The horseradish on the roast beef was not for the faint of heart. Indoor and outdoor seating, off the mail street. We do not like kettle chips but these barbeque ones had excellent dusting on them, "Dirty" brand

    Chicken salad on a croissant

    This is one of my favorite little DT WG spots. It's tucked away from all the hustle and bustle and has the cutest little courtyard to eat at on a nice day! The place is so homey and everyone is always so pleasant and patient (when I can't make up my mind because I want it all). My fave go to Sammy's are the Chicken Salad on a croissant and the Italian!! Whatever you choose to eat will be made with love and I'm pretty sure you'll be back to visit!

    Have been here twice, both on Sunday afternoons and it's usually pretty bustling! The first time I ordered the Italian sandwich and the perfect sandwich. Both delish, I thought the bread had a great crust to it and both weren't too dry. Ordered the pasta salad as a side and was unfortunately a bit disappointed, I think it has a lot of potential to be much better. I was surprised it was just cooked pasta tossed in balsamic glaze with minimal add ins (I can't remember if it was bell peppers or sun dried tomatoes?). The second time I ordered the chicken salad sandwich, yummy but felt like the portion was a bit small... or is it just cuz I finished it so quickly? Service is always friendly and it's nice that it's connected to Piccolo. Cute local deli. I'll be back!

    Nice little side street sandwich shop. Americana at its finest. Got a pressed turkey, bacon, tomato on Cuban bread along with a tomato bisque. Hibiscus tea was kind of sweet: I expected a more delicate flavor. Prices are reasonable and service is efficient.

    Cute little sandwich shop off the main drag in DT winter garden. Probably my favorite thing about this restaurant is the selection of bottled SAUCES that you can complement your sandwich with. We got the tuna and pastrami sandwiches, they were decent. There's a coffee shop on the other side of this restaurant which is a neat addition. Overall cool place with a laid back and quieter vibe.

    Pastrami on rye

    I really like a good deli sandwich for lunch once in a while so decided to stop in to the Deli Downtown, located down a small side street in downtown Winter Garden. The restaurant is pretty small, but it has plenty of outdoor seating under big umbrellas. They have a great selection of beer and wine if you're craving a libation with your lunch as well. I decided on the pastrami on rye and my fiancé got the toasted Italian on ciabatta. The pastrami had good flavor and was nicely packed in there but the sandwich itself needed a bit more mustard and more cheese as I could hardly taste any Swiss. The Italian had a nice dressing it was served with that gave the sandwich more flavor a and the ciabatta bread wasn't overly thick as I sometimes find. It could have used more meat though. While I will say the sandwiches were yummy, I wasn't blown away. They were good deli sandwiches but a bit overpriced. For as much as we paid I thought you could have gotten a bit more (or even a side) and they should have had a bit more of a wow factor.

    The Deli Downtown & Piccolo Coffee Co. ... B+ This quaint #deli in downtown Winter Garden is just a side-step off of Plant St and worth the adventure. The grey building dotted with bright pops of colorful umbrellas feels welcoming. This mostly #sandwich establishment offers standard deli-fair with homey side dishes and humongous cookies. They have partnered with Piccolo Coffee Co which has set up on the right side of the building. Piccolo offers unique and flavorful coffee options, accompanied by #yummy baked goods. Including a foot long biscotti. FOOD // I opted for the plant-based, BBQ pulled jack fruit sandwich that was topped with refreshingly acidic pickled purple cabbage. The texture of the pulled jack fruit was on point - even the meat eaters will appreciate. The BBQ sauce was tangy and the brioche bun stood up to the sauce. The portion was extremely generous! Do not wear white to come eat this sandwich - but do come try it. COFFEE // The coffee from Piccolo Coffee Co. has always been smooth and enjoyable. I went with an iced maple syrup #latte. They offer #milk alternatives such as almond or oat; and were very friendly! I'm going back for that foot-long chocolate biscotti. AMBIANCE // This sweet little deli offers ample outside seating with umbrellas for shade. Ordering is counter service and they offer beer and wine as well. This is not a fancy establishment. It's simple, unassuming and #cozy. There are a few counter seats, but majority of the indoor seating is found around Piccolo. If you haven't already, put The Deli Downtown into your lunch time rotation or stop in for your morning (or afternoon) #caffeine fix. ***Follow me on IG, FB as SALTED | A Foodie Review***

    Another 5 star lunch with the Deil Downtown. No surprises except for their pickled beets. Yeah! Not to acidic and not too sweet. Not too crunchy and not mushy! Shy of as awesome as a "beets thing" can get; you know? The toasted Italian on the Chibata bread again could have been toasted a but more (yet 100% my fault for not speaking up!! - LOL I should have reviewed my last review) but a great sandwich for sure.

    Exceptional sandwiches -- feels like a bite of Italy in Ocoee…read more Ispirazione Sandwich Shop is an absolute standout. We ordered the UFO sandwich, the veggie sandwich, and finished with a cannoli--and every single item delivered. The sandwiches were phenomenal. The bread is made to order and it shows: thin, chewy, and perfectly structured for a real sandwich (not soggy, not overbearing). Unique round discs that suited the food perfectly. The UFO sandwich was deeply satisfying - delicious meats, and I added green olive crema and swapped out provolone for stracciatella. The veggie sandwich wasn't an afterthought at all--fresh, flavorful, and genuinely filling. Every ingredient tasted delicious and fresh. The cannoli was spot-on: perfect flavor, just the right level of sweetness, and clearly made with quality ingredients. Not overly sugary, not heavy--just right. The location is also a big plus. It's in a newly built shopping center with really nice pond-side seating, which would be a great place to sit, relax, and actually enjoy the meal. On top of all that, the owners were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the prices are very fair for the quality you're getting. This is the kind of place you root for. If you love real sandwiches, fresh ingredients, and food made with pride, don't miss it. We'll absolutely be back.

I've been twice now, but I would be there all the time if I lived closer to Ocoee. It was a quick easy stop while I was on my way home from the Winter Garden area this weekend. They specialize in fresh baked Tigelle sandwiches which is an Italian flatbread. As someone who is watching my carb intake, I really like this thin, light bread. So far, I've tried the Bella Vita and the Picante (spicy) sandwiches. Both are amazing! They use super fresh Italian ingredients like soppressata, mozzarella, mortadella, prosciutto di parma, burrata, and pesto. The to-go packaging for their sandwiches is also on point. They have the cutest little yellow boxes and it's like unboxing a present. One of my absolute favorite things on the menu is their pistachio tiramisu dessert. It's probably one of the best desserts I've ever! I would drive here just for this alone. A MUST! The staff are all super friendly and happy to offer suggestions. Gabriel was so kind and I learned that he's actually from Italy. The cafe itself is small and cozy with some additional outdoor seating. You have to park on the backside of the building and walk around to the storefront. Highly recommended for great lunch spot or early dinner!

We got there on a Wednesday night around 5:30 and it was fairly steady, but there was still plenty of seating. They don't have many individual tables. A lot of their seating is open style seating so you could be at a table with multiple other people. They do have outdoor seating as well, but where the outdoor seating is located is also the side of sun sets on, so it definitely gets warm. I chose a pre-designed salad, the southwest salad. It's a mix of spring greens with corn kernels, black beans, tortilla strips, and a jalapeño avocado ranch dressing. I did opt to put chicken on mine so that does increase the price a little bit because you do have to pay for protein. Overall, the salad was really good very fresh and the chicken definitely tasted like it was cooked fresh as well. I will say the bathroom situation is a little odd as they are unisex bathrooms, but there are only two of them in the building. One of them each time I went up to try to use the restroom was consistently locked, so I'm not sure if it was out of order but it was locked each time I went up. On a busy day - having just two bathroom stalls seems like a design flaw. My biggest complaint is the parking situation. The small strip mall has not only this location but a coffee shop and a tea shop in it as well as a Pilates studio and the parking lot is just simply too small to support all of that business. I ended up parking on the side street because it was so much easier versus trying to fight to find a parking spot.

The ambiance alone makes this place worth visiting -- it's beautiful, warm, inviting, and incredibly photogenic. Every little corner feels thoughtfully put together, which makes it such a lovely place to sit, relax, and enjoy the moment. One thing I especially loved is that they decorate the café based on the season, and it was honestly so cute seeing all the Easter décor and festive little touches throughout the space. It made the whole café feel even more special and gave it such a whimsical, cheerful vibe. You can tell they really put effort into creating an experience and not just serving coffee. This place also holds a little extra meaning for us because we actually did a mini engagement photo session here with our friends just for fun, and it felt so fitting since we met on Coffee Meets Bagel. So being able to capture that sweet little full-circle moment in a café setting made it feel even more personal and memorable. It was such a cute and meaningful way to celebrate a piece of our story. Overall, Rosallie is the kind of place that's perfect for a cozy coffee date, catching up with a friend, taking cute photos, or just enjoying a peaceful little escape in Winter Garden.

Before I even got my food, I had a great interaction with Mercedes at the counter. She was genuinely friendly, easy to talk to, and didn't rush the moment, which set a really positive tone right away. I ordered a cheesesteak with everything on it, and when it came out, it was clear they don't cut corners here. The sandwich was fully loaded from one end to the other, with finely chopped steak that was juicy and well seasoned. The cheese was melted throughout instead of just sitting on top, so every bite had that same balanced flavor. Even with all the toppings, nothing felt overwhelming, and the bread held everything together without falling apart. It also came with fries, which were hot and crispy, and I paired everything with a peach Crush. That combination worked really well, especially with how rich the cheesesteak was.

The Vibe: From the outside, the shop is pretty unassuming, tucked into a strip mall--but that's often where the best deli spots are hiding. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted by a busy lunch rush and a fast-paced New York deli vibe, with staff cranking out sandwiches left and right. Always a good sign. What We Ordered: * Hot Rachel * Classic Italian * 1/2 lb pesto macaroni salad * 1/2 lb redskin potato salad We took everything home for lunch and... Every single thing was delicious. Sandwich Highlights: The Hot Rachel was exactly what you want from a deli sandwich--tender pastrami, melty Swiss, tangy slaw, and toasted rye all working together perfectly. Stacked high and full of flavor. My husband's Classic Italian was also fantastic, loaded with meats and that classic deli balance of flavors. Both deli salads were great, but the pesto macaroni salad was the standout--creamy, herby, and packed with flavor. We're honestly so excited to have discovered a great New York-style deli less than 10 minutes from our house. Safe to say we'll definitely be back soon to work our way through the rest of the menu. Pro tip: Don't skip the deli salads--grab one or two to share with your sandwich.
