I went there for the first time yesterday after seeing his Facebook video about his issues with internet trolls. First impressions walking in the door is the place is immaculately clean. I was helped immediately and ordered the Italian sausage and beef combo sandwich. While waiting I checked out their coolers and picked out a lemon Tiramisu. Once again, the coolers were spotlessly clean and organized. I took a peek into the bar area and it looks really nice, definitely something to try another day. I got my sandwich in a very reasonable time since it was made to order and of course, paid cash. Overall impression, the food was excellent, the gals working there were very nice, prices were reasonable considering the quality of the food. Highly recommended. read more

I was gonna stop in today for a sandwich and possibly some deli sides, but as I walked in, the owner was involved with two of his female employees, berating them for what I can only guess is not mopping the floor correctly. When he was done, the ladies walked over to me and asked what they could get me. I promptly told them "nothing,I don't appreciate the way the owner of this business was talking to his employees, he's a ja**off and wouldn't support someone like that." Upon walking out the door, the owner asked me who the f**k I thought I was. I told him "I WAS a customer". He then proceeded to follow me out door while cursing at me . His behavior and treatment of his employees was incredibly disturbing and completely uncalled for. I will never support a business owner like this. I hope his employees know that there are a lot more jobs and business owners who will treat them with dignity and respect. And if these employees were family members, well, that would be a whole other review. Response to the owners response I'm gonna take this as a threat and make a police report. Thank you for showing us all. read more

I came in here after breakfast, as there was quite a few items that I needed to make my Italian meatloaf and some pasta. I've recently moved to the area and was excited to find an Italian deli. They were open, so I came in there weren't any customers other than myself so I thought it would be a perfect time. However, I kept asking for the items that I needed pecorino cheese, ground veal, ground pork, ground sirloin, and the answer was the same. We're out of that, we're out of that too, we're out of that as well. I was dumbfounded. These are Italian staples. These aren't really hard to get items. Then I started looking at the prices and I was like wow this is really expensive like more expensive than downtown Chicago, which was insane to me. A woman walked in and asked to pick up her order And an older gentleman I assume was the owner was very gruff to her mind you this woman's order was well over $100 and he seemed like he couldn't even be bothered by it. She looked a little intimidated and a bit sad so after walking around the store And not really finding any thing that I wanted to purchase that they had I walked out. It's pretty close to my home so it's too bad that they are. Customer service is very lacking and that they didn't have any of the items that I wanted all in all is a complete waste of time and I'm still looking for a good Italian deli read more

Tony's Italian Deli is definitely worth a stop! The food and customer service were great. The food was a little expensive but authentic.

We ordered two Italian beef sandwiches and one "Wise Guy" sandwich. Very good sandwiches!

Today was my first visit and I will be back!! The meatball sub was amazing!! Cute little market with fresh and packaged items to purchase! Worth the drive from Illinois!!! Angie S. read more

The food was amazing! The cannolis are always delicious! Love this place! I'm from Chicago and i miss all the places we had this over there. So happy they are in NWI! read more

Food is great. Big new location. Never had an issue with their food. I definitely would try them again in the future

Come here all the time the food is amazing. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely keep coming back.

Food is great so is the service.the staff are kind and patient while you decide on what to order.i will definitely go back again.

What's not to like about this amazing Italian Deli? The Italian Beef was a great relief after the debacle of our previous attempt. Truly, these are awesome! The cannolis are homemade and simply amazing. The prosciutto, the olives, and selections of Italian cheeses are perfect. You're paying a premium, but it's directly from Italy and are far better than anything you'll find otherwise. The vodka sauce is now a staple in our kitchen. Oh!, and the gelato- about as authentic as you're going to get this side of the Atlantic. The only thing keeping this from 5 stars is that the sandwiches, while very very good, are a little steep. The Italian Beef just might be worth it. And check out everything else, there's simply too much to itemize. The most authentic Italian you can find. Trust me, I've been there a few times. read more

Ask for the spicy sauce sandwich made Tony's way! Wife loves the fresh turkey with red peppers.

This is my all-time favorite sandwich shop! A co-worker from work took me here and I absolutely love coming here. It feels like I am dining at an Italian bistro and they sell some cool Italian products such as cookies, pasta sauces, and pasta. The cases are filled with salads and meats. My favorite sandwich is Michael's Favorite, which has lettuce, tomato, oil, vinegar, Roast beef and Provolone cheese. I also like the Mama B, which has lettuce, tomato, oil, vinegar, Mortadella, Turkey, Genoa Salami, and Provolone cheese. read more

Nice place, friendly and accommodating staff We stopped here in hopes of grabbing a bite before Mid-Week service at Faith Church next door. We walked in 5 minutes from the place closing with expectations of being turned away. The staff welcomed us as we poured over the delectable display. Great tasting food, the only set back was the hoagie roll for my sandwich was hard. Attempting to eat it only resulted in tearing up my gums. I'll be sure to return read more

I'm going to echo Foodie B and the level of frustration that some others have mentioned. The owners attitude should be a little less "short" and more welcoming and thankful we want to support the establishment. We are in tough times for everyone involved and it's about to get even tougher. Are they expensive? yes. Can they be nicer? yes. Should we support small businesses and agree we need to keep what we have and get more non-chain restaurants in the area? yes. For that, I say three stars. We need to keep them in business....at least those that are nice to their customers. read more

Amazing ... Meat and Cheese tray was amazing. It was the star of the show. Going into Tony's place was a wonderful experience. It brought back some fond memories of my dad and I going to the Italian Store 30 years ago. I met Tony and his wife and they are super great people.Tony took the time out of his busy day to help me carry all the items to my truck. We are looking forward to Tony and his staff catering future work events. I'm fact we're have one coming up in a week. I can't say enough about Tony's place except that we can't wait to try everything.... Keep up the good work. read more

Expensive for mediocre deli goods. There's much better places that provide better quality and better specialties. Not worth it.

Great, authentic Italian deli... thus owner.. Tony takes tremendous pride in his homemade meatballs, meats, salads and do many more Italian specialties. There's not many quality independent food businesses in NWI but this place is a gem. I told Tony he needs to get the word out via Instagram! I appreciate good quality homemade food after being from Chicago and living in NYC. I'm not a fan of DQ, Subway or any other substandard fast food and that why I was so happy to come across this authentic deli with homemade sandwiches, soups, salads and an extensive selection of olive oils, sauces, breads, pastas, chocolate, Italian cookies,etc. What a great place to get a delicious sandwich, salad or take home pasta. I'll be back! And it's super clean, nice space to sit and eat in.. the owners really take pride in this deli read more

Yum. Yum. Yum. Get you a sub. Super Sub packed with meat. Add some biscotti for a sweet treat. Homemade pasta. Homemade sauce. Skip the olives and it's your loss. For real, the supersub on Turano is great and there are a lot of special italian treats. They have a specials board, so you might be able to pick up some house made chicken soup to go along with your sammich. You can also find the important 3 C's of delis: coffee, cookies, and cold-cuts. read more

Great food, great service. It doesn't get better than this. The only problem for me is that I can't afford all this greatness on a regular basis. I'll let you all decide for yourselves, but if price is no object, GO TO TONY'S ! read more

This place is a disappointment after disappointment. Overpriced mediocre items. Terrible business ethics and rude staff. I've tried to shop there numerous times but either they close early or the ovens are shut off. They cry on Facebook when the power goes out and they lose their freezers. Don't go here. Take 10 more minutes and head down saulk trail to dal santos where there is a respectable deli. read more

Delicious all their prepared Deli choices are prepared fresh daily. Using the best Italian foods. The most wonderful Italian and many imported groceries sold and many fresh Italian meats and cheese. read more

Made me a fire sandwich and the staff was so friendly. Actually helped me pick out what I didn't even know I wanted. Was so indecisive and they recommended me one of their signatures and I loved it! The place itself also acts as a little Italian grocery store. A whole bunch of homemade goods. read more

I was hungry for a GOOD Italian sub. Subway? Nope. Jimmy John's? Nope. Tony's Italian Deli? YEP. The "Super Sub" was just what the doctor ordered. Beautiful in every way. read more

Finally tried Tony's deli...wonderful addition to Dyer. The sandwiches are delish! We had the Italian and Tony's panini and a Mama B sandwich. While waiting for the paninis, Tony made a pizza and shared it with us! Loved the potato salad and sampled some of the largest olives I've ever seen! We'll definitely be back! read more

Finally a deli in Dyer that we can be proud of! The quality of the sandwiches, deli meat, sauces and oils is what you would expect from an authentic and upscale, yet reasonably priced deli. Their sandwiches are freshly made with just the right amount of meat that will leave you satisfied and wanting to visit again quickly. Their soup's are all freshly made daily with only the finest ingredients resulting in a soup better than your grandmother ever made. The cannoli's will have you sneaking back to the fridge for another one before your spouse or children beat you to it. Do yourself a favor and stop over! Note: I have no connection to this business in any way shape or form. This is just my honest opinion after a few visits over a few weeks. read more

My wife and I just stopped in for the first time this afternoon. One of the cleanest deli's I have ever been to - and Ive been to a few in my time. The Owner, Tony, was conversational and has a great story. We each had the 6in Wiseguy sandwhich - my only mistake was not getting the 12in. Everything was fresh, including the Turano bread. Also, do yourself a favor and splurge on the made-fresh-daily Cannoli; they make about 50 a day and always sell out, so grab a few. These guys opened late 2019 and endured the pandemic so get out and support this hidden gem of Dyer. read more

Great place for freshest Italian deli. The best meatball sandwich I ever had, soft bread, great sauce with tender meatballs. Definitely try this place if you want the best capicola and volpi salami. Pricing, I work for a food service industry and food prices of items, has skyrocketed. Some iems have increased up to 120%. Just like any food service business, they are keeping their prices leveled from the increases from their vendors. read more

Overpriced, overrated food. Small is too small and not worth the drive. D&D and Dal Santo's are way better!
