Toojays is an Orlando staple. It's not the best food in the world, but it is perfect for a lazy Sunday lunch. The turkey ruben is fabulous. I always try to get it with turkey pastrami and fries. If you like honey mustard then be sure to try Toojays' HM, it is wonderful. I also love the matzo ball soup and the tuna salad. On the weekends the place always has a line between 12- 2pm, but the line usually moves pretty fast. The service is fast and attentive. read more

The service is absolutely terrible. The front counter folks are either rude or don't even acknowledge your existence. It's my recommendation to drive the additional few miles to the TooJay's Ocoee location. They are light years above the Colonial location in service, atmosphere and professionalism. If people are having A bad day, they should just call out of work, not take it out on the customers. read more

TooJay's reminds me a lot of the diners in NY on a weekend morning. Lots of...how do I put this delicately...21+++ customers who are all too happy to sit in their booth for hours on end and read the paper. If I weren't so impatient, I wouldn't mind, but I want to sit and eat, too. Despite the long lines on the weekends, TooJays has good food and GREAT desserts. The service is usually excellent (which could potentially be because I went to college with 3/4 of the staff), and you can get breakfast, lunch, or dinner items at pretty much any time. TooJay's is also one of the few restaurants that deliver to our office, which is great for group lunches and business meetings. While I can't guarantee all the locations offer that as an option, the Sanford/Longwood restaurant definitely does. One final note: If you're a New Yorker, this is one of the very few places in town you can get a knish. It might not be the best knish you've ever had, but it's the only one I've found in Orlando so far! read more

Ordered the dill chicken salad and sweet potato fries. Gotta say, the sandwich was pretty subpar. There were fatty bits in the chicken and it was pretty bland. My fries were served to me almost burnt and they over corrected in the re-cook. The second time they were too under. Service was just OK. My waiter was nice but didn't immediately tell me what the specials were, the soup of the day and made no mention of the new small plates. After I finished my sandwich he brought the check over and I had to say, "could I order dessert?" It's almost like he was trying to rush me out. The chocolate cheese delight cake was the most enjoyable part of my dining. Wouldn't say it was great, but it was good. read more

I was only there for 10 minutes so my surrogate father can feed me their delicious banana cake before he takes me to the airport for my flight. Fast service and really good banana chocolate cake, saw so many other desserts that I have to try next time. read more

TooJay’s Deli * Bakery * Restaurant - Banana cream chocolate cake! Was yummy! - Delis Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I want to love this place so much. Their black and white cookies are awesome, their desserts are pretty amazing, but I have had great difficulties finding the right entree to suit my deli cravings at Toojay's. I have been here many, many times. I used to always get the salad with chicken, bacon, eggs, etc.--the largest salad ever served. And while I always enjoyed it, every time, without fail, I was sick within an hour and debilitated for the rest of the day. The traditional Jewish fare is great if you are looking for a fix--latkes, whitefish, knish--but the sandwiches did not impress me. Maybe I will keep trying... read more

My boyfriend and I ate here with a group. We are both vegans and our server was vegan. They made our wraps with cheese, so we sent them back. Then when we got the next ones, one of them had pieces of BACON in them! It was my wrap and not only am I vegan but I have been kosher my entire life. This place is DANGEROUS. If you have food allergies and need accommodations, they will literally KILL you because of how careless they are in the kitchen. TooJay's? More like BOOjay's. read more

Gotta say, I really enjoyed their focaccia sandwich with grilled turkey, tabbouleh, cheese and hummus. YUMMY! There was enough for two meals there but much as I tried I couldn't stop eating. Also tried their tollhouse cookie- another winner. Big chuncks of nuts and chocolate baked into a wonderful brownie. Finished my meal feeling royally STUFFED! read more

Turkey Ruben with Onion Rings. Coffee. Always good food at thus location. Service, well not always. Love the Bakery section. read more

This used to be our place to go after Church on Sunday. Today we were quickly seated and handed menus. After 12 minutes, we are still sitting there with no wait staff to say "I'll be right with you". The dining area was not busy at all with several open tables. As usual we are seated in a far back corner of the restaurant near the soft drink station. Wait staff made eye contact but ignored us. We got up and left never to return at the 12-minute mark. Last time we were at TooJay's for Sunday brunch we ordered Matzo Ball soup (me) and french onion soup for my companion for starters. I also ordered open-faced egg salad platter, he ordered the usual white fish salad. The french onion sup was out in a couple of minutes with an assurance my soup would be forthcoming. Shortly afterwards, out came the salads but no sign of my soup. I asked the waiter about my soup and he copped an attitude and said "Oh, well, I can take it off your bill." This place has gone down hill over the last year. We used to enjoy the experience but now, the poor attitude, no one cares and the service is exceptionally slow. The presentation of the bill comes at a rapid-pace! I would suggest their attitude is "give them the bill early, so they can get the @#$ out of here and another table seated so I can make more $$ on tips. read more

Friendly service. Good food. Came here on a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't too busy and I was greeted as soon as I entered and asked if I was dining in or placing an order to go. I opted for the latter and ordered the hot pastrami on wheat with a seasonal fruit cup. The pastrami was delicious and not too fatty. The fruit was fresh and tasty. Sometimes melons can be a bit bland if they aren't ripened enough. I sat outside at one of several tables. The weather was great for this. All and all...good experience! read more

Too Jay's has firmly entrenched itself into my "remember to ask for a box because the servings are ridiculous" list of food establishments.

I asked for a large basket of tripple crunchy fries: what I rec'd is twelve fresh fries....not well done. A bunch of trashed leftover fries from previous orders thrown in as if I wouldn't notice greasy uneatable trash. If this is the cook's idea of pleasing a guest.......well, this is a cook with the skills and mindset of a gready spoon. Shame on you Jay and Jay....and local management. Most of the fries have large black rot spots......am i expected to quality control my fries? That's the customer's job? Wow. read more

Horrible staff that creates such a negative and horrible environment for their customers. No greeting and short with everyone - every time I have gone. So not going back. They bring people down poor management especially the skinny white guy up front. read more

Toojay's is a very good lunch stop. Enjoy the food, but the service??? The Colonial Drive location has better service than the Sand Lake shop, but... Very much enjoy the Turkey and Chopped Liver on Rye. There is an ongoing family debate about the authenticity of the rye, but authentic or not, I like the crust and thickness of the slices and think it is a very good sandwich bread. The kids meals are always a hit. Not sure what it is about the kids mac & cheese but my son, who is two will eat two orders if we let him. Have also had the greek wrap, but if you are at a deli and can take a break from watching your cholesterol, go for one of the traditional sandwiches. Also enjoy the Rugalach, but wow is it pricey! Instead of sheltering your money in gold, try Rugalach! $14 a pound? It's a Cookie! Anyway... good eats, despite the service. Enjoy. read more

Two words: Banana Dream. If you've never had this TooJay's delicacy, you owe it to yourself to head to the nearest location of this NY-ish style deli and grab a slice. It's a banana-flavored layer cake (think banana bread) with a banana cream and caramel filling, covered in dark chocolate frosting and topped with walnuts. It is the perfect cake. Even if you hate bananas, you will go bananas for this cake (puns!). In addition to cakes and pastries, TooJay's serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. I recommend any of the chicken salads - all quite tasty. read more

We enjoy eating here. The food is well prepared and tasty, and if you watch what you order, it can be healthy. That said, today we ordered the Loaded Latkes. We both like latkes, but these were broken up, fried, and covered with cheese, bacon and sour cream (not exactly kosher). Unhealthy on any diet, but OMG delicious! read more

Pleasant breakfast. We were seated immediately after walking past the tempting displays of baked goods. While there was remodeling in progress after hours, the restaurant was clean with no impact on customers. They have a wide range of standard deli offerings. We decided to order corned beef hash with eggs, a mini potato pancake an English muffin and a sesame bagel. The hash was standard fare - doubtful it's made fresh here. The eggs were perfectly over medium - something I rarely find - bravo. And the English muffins were fine with jelly from the table packets. The interesting offering was the potato pancake - which I hesitate to call mini - since it was larger than any other item we ordered. It came with applesauce & sour cream and was excellent. Overall - this was a good breakfast at a reasonable price - we'll be back. read more

TooJay’s Deli * Bakery * Restaurant - Nice place - remodeling, but making it work without disrupting customers' experience. - Delis Near Me - Orlando, Florida

TooJay's is one of my consistent "go-to" places. The quality of the food and the service is always wonderful. It's as close to Katz Deli that I've found in Florida. read more

The pastrami is the best in Orlando. This is pretty close to eating a sandwich in NY as Orlando has. The sandwiches are good portions, and many to choose from. I've been there many times but only tried: 1) Pastrami - A 2) Salami Genoa - B+ 3) Liverwurst - A 4) Smoked Salmon - A 5) Matzo Ball - B+ 6) Dessert - B+ The coffee is OK, better than IHOP. Service is hit or miss. They have some new servers recently that are excellent. read more

I love this place, because they always remember what I drink in the morning and the food is delicious! read more

TooJay’s Deli * Bakery * Restaurant - Yummy oj! - Delis Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I give this place a straight 5-Star. I've been here many times and I NEVER leave unsatisfied Excellent place !!...Their breakfasts are unique and their Deli and pastry is to die for. Highly recommend it ! read more

GREAT place to eat!! Everything is delicious I have had from there. You should definitely try the matzoh ball soup, it's totally worth it.

Every time we go to Orlando we have to eat here. Service and food are always good. Everything on the menu has been to our satisfaction and we have tried a large sampling of it. The deserts are amazing as well. It is always clean. A tip would be to check for off times and avoid Sunday's after church. read more

This place has nice Irish cream cheesecake. Nice and fluffy. I would return for it! Don't get Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray Soda though, tastes AWFUL! I told the staff and they were kind enough to change it out free of charge for a cream soda which was much better. The seating is comfortable for the booths. That atmosphere is nice but mainly geared towards an older generation. I feel that the patrons from Piccadilly migrated to here since Piccadilly left the mall. Staff is very nice, prices are a little high but worth the quality of food. read more

Ordered two sandwiches to go, at the counter at 8:30. My order was finally proffered after 40 minutes of waiting! And they still got it wrong. Over priced and way slow. My advice, order at least an hour in advance and check your order before you leave. read more

Best service we've had in a long time. We don't come to TooJay's often but we would come back just to be served by Jasmine, she was on top of it, and so caring, sweet and just genuinely so so nice. Five stars across the board read more

I was not that big of a fan of their food. Their service was okay not really horrible but no one really wowed me. Our server was nice and when we asked for help she was always available and quick to serve. But I felt the chicken salad was subpar the challah was Bland and the loaded latkes, though really good, could better organize itself in terms of its sour cream. read more

We are NEVER disappointed when we go to TwoJays. I had a Roast Beef on Rye and my husband had tongue on challah with a side of chicken livers and we also had fries and coleslaw. It was so delicious. Though we did not have dessert this visit when we went other times I had the Bananna Dream cake which is to die for and my hubby gets the killer cake which iz killer good. We go to this deli whenever we bump o to one and highly recommend to all. read more

My daughter text us decided this is her favorite place for an after school dinner. I think it's because of the pudding and cookie, but's she asked me to give it the highest rating you can in an app. She is only 7 and I didn't even know she knew yoU could do that. Thanks TooJays, from. My side you give great service for a guy with Two little ones. read more

As much as I normally enjoy too Jays the staff at this location has driven me to never step foot into another one ever again . I've come here to place to go orders on multiple occasions only to be completely ignored . On one occasion there were literally three people behind the counter , one of which that looked as if they were in leadership , and not one person could be bothered to greet me while I stood there for 3 minutes while they carried on a conversation between them. No "welcome " , no "be right with you" , nothing just ignored me until finally one of them asked If I was picking up or needed to place an order . Meanwhile the other, who I could only assume was in leadership as he was dressed differently and seemed to be logging something in a notebook , finished what he was doing and just walked away without acknowledging me either . Yet and still I returned only to have a similar experience . I placed my order took a stroll to a store close by and return for my pick up. Again upon arrival someone behind the counter looks me dead in the face as I enter and just walks away without acknowledging me AT ALL. Don't care how good the food is poor customer service, will guarantee I never give this location another dime. read more

TooJay's is consistently fresh and delicious. I always order salads from them for work, and the portion is so huge that it makes lunch for two days! While the ambiance isn't necessarily date night material, TooJay's is a great lunch spot that I continue to frequent because of the great value and consistency in delivering a fresh, yummy salad. I rotate between the Cobb Salad, the Chopped Salad, and the Chef Salad. All amazing! read more

I have memories of being 7 years old and my mom making my dad stop at Toojays in Palm Beach Gardens on the way back from Miami to get some chop liver, balck and white cookies and loafs of there rye bread to give to there friends. I have so many favorites here but if I had to narrow it down to 3 it would have to be the matzo ball soup, black and white cookies and banana dream cake. For dinner there chicken marsala and lasagna are really good. For breakfast you have to get there lox and bagel and corn-beef hash. A tip is if you are dinning with someone else who likes lox order the platter over the bagel sandwich and then just order an extra bagel the platter has plenty enough salmon for two bagels. Also if you have never had a Dr. Brown Soda you have to try one. All and all Toojays is no New York deli but definitely the closest thing you will find in Orlando. read more

Love coming here. Food and service are consistently good. I got a cup of vegetable soup and half tuna salad sandwich. The black and white cookies are a hit with the kids. Servers are super friendly and attentive. Great spot to catch up with someone over a meal. read more

Toooooo overpriced! 1/2 sandwich for $10.00! Eventhou I got a salad I wasn't aware of this! I thought it was going to be a full sandwich and the salad I thought It was a bargain! Completely wrong!!!! Feels like I'm back in New York!! The only positive is that The gentleman who helped me was very kind read more

Had to ask for bread, got four small pieces of rye bread and wasn't offered any more bread. The Matzo Ball soup and salad served before the entrees were good. The Baked Cod Almondine was Okay. I can't eat rice & the only thing our server would substitute for rice was potato... mashed, roasted, or a potato pancake. We finally comprised on a double serving of vegetables which she said was "broccoli & carrots". I didn't expect two giant hunks of broccoli swimming in a plate of fish juice (no carrots). Very unappetizing... It looked like they cut a head of broccoli into eighths and threw 2 hunks on a plate of fish juice. The Garlic Herb Crusted Cod was excellent! (no fish juice) Our server was preoccupied every time she came to our table. We waited a very long time after finishing our meals for her to return to the table. The busser cleaned off the table and we still sat and waited... She finally showed up and we ordered dessert, then waited a long time again for the Mini Napoleon & Éclair combo to arrive. We ordered three Mini Éclair's and one Mini Napoleon. Then someone else delivered the desserts & it was wrong (one Mini Éclair and three Mini Napoleons) so rather than just leave the desserts and bring an additional Éclair, he took everything away... and we were waiting again... read more

Due to Covid-19 I got the Turkey Avocado sandwich to go, and I was thrilled because the description sounded so good. The presentation was really nice, and I did not love the taste, but more importantly I was appalled by the avocado. It was so unripe that it was literally crunchy! My bf literally asked me what was crunchy in my sandwich when I took a bite...He hates avocados and knows nothing about how they are prepared or the correct ripeness, and even he was confused by this. The food and service last time I ate there (a couple years ago) was wayyy better, so its safe to say I was super disappointed by this experience. read more

Great Service and great food every time! Sunday mornings are always crowded but we were seated pretty quickly and the manager actually stopped by a few times as well to make sure we were being taken care of! It always impresses me to see a manager on the floor when a place is busy! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch on my way to a meeting. I ordered a ham and and swiss on rye to-go. It took about seven minutes to me made and I was happy I had ample time to enjoy it before my meeting. Highly recommended if shopping in the Colonial Plaza. read more

Cannot be thankful enough for the kindness received by Sean, the manager here in this location. He went out of his way to accommodate our family after my Mother's funeral. There were 28 of us and when I ate here the week before I spoke with him to see if there would be any possibility of serving such a large group and he said he would "make it happen". And he did just as he promised! My family enjoyed each of their meals with no complaints and the service was excellent. Sean made certain we were taken care of, stopping by often to check in with me. I didn't get a chance to thank him at the end, so here is a note to let everyone know the kindness shared with our family in a time of need. Thanks Sean and to all of you at Toojay's! read more
