Why do I keep doing this to myself? I came here to grab a sandwich and use the TMobile buy one get…read moreone free offer. I had no idea there was a location so close to me. The order had to be placed online for pickup. I tried earlier, but the store showed as a corporate location for some reason. After a bit of research, I found out it was an actual store. I parked, placed my order from the car, and made sure to customize it because I do not eat pork. I added extra tomatoes and left out ham. I also ordered one for my son. The pickup time was about fifteen to twenty minutes later. I went inside to let them know I had just placed an order. The store was empty except for staff. A young woman greeted me and said she was working on the sandwiches. I waited, spoke briefly with another employee, and looked around. Soon, my order was ready. The young woman told me the sandwich with extra tomatoes was on top. I thought she might also mention no ham, but she did not. I checked the bag before leaving, opened the one she pointed out, and thought it looked right. I tied the bag back up and left. At home, I planned to give one sandwich to my son and save mine for lunch the next day. I was a little hungry and decided to take a bite. Before I did, I checked again because both sandwiches looked exactly the same. That is when I saw they both had ham. I was upset. I checked the time, saw the store was still open, and called. The phone rang for a long time, but someone finally answered. I explained what happened. He asked if I had the receipt, but there was none in the bag. I gave him my name, and he found my receipt still in the store. He read it out loud and said it only showed extra tomatoes, not no ham. I checked my account and saw he was right. Somehow, the no ham request had not saved. I told him I was confused because I was sure I had deselected ham. He said it was not their fault and they could not fix it. I asked to speak to the manager. He talked to someone in another language and came back saying the manager said the same thing. They would make a new sandwich if I paid again. That was disappointing. The manager refused to get on the phone and I was "oh welled". I thought this could be a regular spot since it is so close and clean inside. But maybe it is for the best. The food is not great for me anyway. I do not know what went wrong with the order. I even tried to recreate it, but the promo code seemed to affect the options although it did allow for customization. Maybe it was meant to be. Yes, maybe the mistake was on my end. But I know I tried to remove the ham. Either way, I do not need processed meat in my life. I will take this as a win. Will I go back? No, and that is okay. The food is not good for me anyway. Also, what was I doing eating a sandwich after 8 anyway? Get it together ma'am! A star for the store being clean, the young lady being pleasant, and the quickness I received my order.

Upon entering, you walk into a full service, but small, market specializing in Italian grocery items. The ambiance was homey, perfect for a small neighborhood specialty grocery.

They also have pizza kits to take home to make your own and pasta and other food items prepared and ready to go in the refrigerated section. The pizza counter is located in the rear of the store.

Scittino's has seating to enjoy your pizza in store or outside. Our order was ready in no time. We opted to take ours to go. The pizza was fresh with a great yeasty crust.

I visited Taneytown Deli in June 2026. I called them my office after looking at the website because…read moreI had a question about the chicken sandwich that they had listed on their menu online. I asked the lady who answered the phone if the menu item "Chicken filet w/french fries" on the overstuffed sandwiches section of the menu was a fried filet or if it was a grilled filet. There is another chicken filet w/ pepper jack cheese listed below that menu item. I asked if I could get the chicken filet with french fries and I asked her to confirm that it comes with french fries. She said that it doesn't and began to lose patience. I explained to her that I see a menu item that says a "chicken filet with french fries" so I wanted to know what that was. She clarified again that the sandwich comes alone and you have to order the fry separate. I was okay with that, however, I was confused because it is listed as "Chicken filet w/ french fries" on the website. I could tell by this time she was annoyed by the tone and her voice and I was about to say okay just give me the french fries and the sandwich. I was working so I really just wanted to be able to pick up something really quick and come back and eat while I continue to work. However things changed when she said do you want it or not?. I was taking a back but I composed myself and I said Well ma'am I'm just trying to understand what the sandwich is on your menu that comes with fries. She said again that doesn't come with fries it's separate. I still wasn't understanding or accepting it because it says on the menu chicken fillet with french fries by this time she was really annoyed and she put the phone down but didn't tell me she was leaving the phone I could just hear her taking orders in the background I was so appalled, I just sat there and listened because I could not believe it. When she came back to the phone she asked me if I wanted to order or not. Overall this was a horrible interaction in this review is way too long so I'll try to sum it up. The woman was disrespectful. However, I went over to the restaurant anyway hoping that we can gain some understanding because perhaps there was a language barrier or something. Unfortunately, her disrespect of me escalated as she began yelling at me and I had to repeatedly tell her to lower her voice when she is speaking to me. While I was there she had the realization that she was wrong. She at first try to argue with me as she did on the phone but then she realized that I was referring to the menu that they have on their website which is incorrect. I explained to her that it is not my problem that HER website is wrong. She went on to say that I should have told her that I was looking at the menu online. If I am not in front of you, you should assume that I'm looking at your menu on your website. Especially, if I'm asking questions about your menu you should know that I'm not a regular and I do not know your menu that's why I'm asking you questions. Why is it on me to tell you that I'm looking at your menu online? You mean you shouldn't be wrong. I have never been treated that way at any restaurant ever in my 40 something years of living. She is rude and she will never get another penny from me. Take a look at the menu yourself. Two months later, it's still wrong. Listed as Chicken Filet and fries under overstuffed sandwiches. https://taneytowndelicatonsville.com/overstuffed-sandwiches/ Note: It is my picture featured at the top of this yelp profile.

Ordering over the phone is quick and easy. When you order a bahn mi sandwich, they ask if you want the veggies on the sandwich or on the side. If you're eating it right away, I would get the veggies on it, but if you're waiting a bit or transporting the food, I would grab it on the side. All their banh mi comes with (pork?) pate, so if you don't like the taste, make sure to ask for no pate! They also come with jalepenos, so if you're not a spice person, don't forget to ask for no jalepenos. In general, the meat in the banh mi is SUPER flavorful. The sandwiches come with a side of sauce, but the pate and whatever other spread they put on the sandwich is enough that you don't even need the sauce. I've also tried their classic summer rolls, which are really good! Not too much lettuce and the peanut sauce is very delicious. Love this spot for a quick and authentic Vietnamese meal!

Fresh and well-flavored. This became the perfect light "salad" that we had left out of our sandwiches. A great find, just off US-40 Baltimore National Pike in Catonsville MD.

**Disappointing Experience at This Location**…read more I normally enjoy Toastique, although I've noticed this particular location isn't nearly as friendly or welcoming as other Toastique locations I've visited. Recently, I ordered my usual Salmon Toast and was disappointed to discover that the cucumbers were clearly not fresh. When I lifted the salmon and greens to cut into the toast, the cucumber slices were almost transparent and looked anything but fresh. I brought it back and explained that I was happy to have it remade, but if they didn't have fresh cucumbers, I would prefer a refund. They ultimately remade the toast without cucumbers. Before leaving, I checked my bag and noticed there were NO cucumbers. When I asked why there were no cucumbers, there really wasn't an explanation. Apparently, someone eventually found some fresh, crispy cucumber slices and put them in a small to-go container for me to add to my **$16 single slice of toast myself.** That just felt like an odd way to resolve the issue. Another frustration is that this location never asks or reminds me about the Toastique rewards program. I visit fairly often because this location is in my neighborhood, yet I didn't even know they had a rewards program until I visited another Toastique location and was asked about it. Had I known, I could have accumulated quite a few rewards by now. I still enjoy Toastique, but this location could definitely improve when it comes to friendliness, attention to detail, and making customers aware of the rewards program.
