The sandwiches are unheard of, they have a vast variety of subs for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I had a chicken cutlet with prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, and vodka sauce on a garlic hero. Very delicious and very, very filling. They don't skimp on the subs. It's $15 plus you get a mouth full and then you save the other half and fill on that later. Your choice. I tried to eat the entire sub but two bites out of the second half. I can't go no more; I can't go no more. The service is awesome and the cashier is very personable with stories and laughs. The other customers are very respectful and courteous. If I ever need to do a catering event, this is most definitely the place I will use. They know what they are doing here. I was stuffed, but not too much to... Inspire more, Yelp more! read more

I went to Tulip Deli on two separate occasions and had two completely different experiences -- one decent, one terrible. The first time I went (on a Friday evening), I ordered a Greek salad and had a good experience. The worker was polite, asked if I was okay with all the ingredients, and made sure I got what I wanted -- no chicken, dressing on the side, etc. He even chopped the salad for me without me asking, which I appreciated. The salad was pretty good, just heavy on the olives, but overall I left satisfied enough to come back a second time. The salad was listed as $13.99, but I was charged $15.82 -- which felt overpriced for what it was, but I let it slide since the portion was large. Then I went back on Sunday, and it was a completely different story. Two different workers were there, neither greeted me or said hello. I told them I wanted a Greek salad with no olives and no chicken. One of them immediately went to add chicken, and when I reminded him "no chicken, no olives," he said the olives were already in there. The other worker said, "It comes with olives," and they didn't bother to make it right. When I got my salad, it was barely 20% lettuce and mostly huge chunks of tomato and onion -- not chopped, not tossed, and not at all like the first one I had. It was honestly frustrating and disappointing, especially after paying over $15 again. I decided to call and let the owner know -- not to get a refund, just to share my experience. Instead of listening, he cut me off mid-sentence and talked over me, saying, "Lady, I rang you up -- that's how we make our salads." He went on about how he's been there 40 years and no one has ever complained, and basically dismissed everything I was saying. When I finally got a chance to speak, I explained that I only called because I had two completely different experiences within two days. He eventually said he'd "make sure his workers ask customers if they want it chopped," but in a very sarcastic, passive way. The way I was spoken to on the phone was rude and unprofessional. I've lived in this area for over 25 years, and this was my first time trying Tulip Deli -- and unfortunately, it'll also be my last. Maybe others have had better experiences, but for me, between the inconsistent food quality, overpriced salad, and dismissive customer service, I can't recommend this place. read more

Maybe I am out of the loop since I very rarely buy sandwiches. But $9.00 bucks for an egg salad sandwich on whole wheat. Did the price of eggs skyrocket again? The sandwich was good, but they need to do a better job keeping the egg shells out read more

So for Admin day my supervisor ordered a medium ceaser salad and for$40 this is what they call a salad it just had lettuce not even enough cheese just sprinkle on top. Never would recommend for that kind of money! 1st time and last time ordering here and never will recommend.. very upset with cost all were shocked. read more

Got a small container of chicken soup, and I mean small. Should have been the most $3.50. I was charged $7.11! I told the manager, where does he got the balls to charge that? He said it was home made! This place is not looking to make a profit, they wanna rape people. If there in business to lose customers, they're doing a good job of it! STAY AWAY!!!!!! read more

I've been going to Tulip Caterers for the last few years & it's been a great experience every time we go. From the food to the workers, the food is always fresh & the workers always kind. Yesterday we had an order for breakfast delivered to my home, & it was the best breakfast we had outside of me cooking it myself. The wonderful & sweet lady on the other end taking my order to whomever made all the sandwiches did an amazing job! I don't know if Vinny or Tommy who made them, but they were fantastic!! They are all so kind to me & my family, & Vinny & his family are always so inviting! With our Bacon egg & cheese sandwiches we ordered their ice cold homemade Ice tea and their lemonade, & they were amazing as well! We have ordered dinner there as well but yesterday's breakfast compare's to any Diner, Restaurant or IHOP you may know! Vinny is a great guy with a wonderful neighborhood Buisness , willing to do the best for you & your family! I ordered Home fries from them as well & my only issue with them was, I didn't order a larger container! They too were great! I love the onions & peppers with real cut potatoes! So flavorful!! So till next time, whether it's Hot Coffee & Eggs or a Deli Sandwich & their meatloaf & mashed potatoes. You can trust Vinny & his team to take care of you & yours.. A bunch of nice people working hard to serve you the best they can. It doesn't get better than that, when everything you taste is amazing! Thanks Vinny, see you soon brother, Rudy read more

This place is okay. But their prices are a little over the top. 1 munchie and a regular ham and cheese on a hero with two Arizona cans cost us $32. The munchie was good, but the ham and cheese was subpar. I have ordered heroes from here before, and there is inconsistency in the way the heroes are made. Coupled with the over the top pricing and subpar hero I got, this is last time I will come here. read more

Vinny and his staff at Tulips are wonderful. They make our corporate BBQ so easy. Our corporation order the Fire Island BBQ package and had the team come BBQ for us. Vinny and his team (Bruce and Bill) came to our venue, set up everything, provided everything down to the paper goods. Its great to have should a well-rounded catering services. Will definitely be using them again for future events read more

We are from out of town, and everywhere we went- had to be walking distance. Tulip caterers and deli caught our eye and we searched their site/yelp to see what was good. We ordered 2 hero's, the Rizzuto, and Joe the lawyer. Both were incredible! We ordered the Pompeii panini, and it was also very very good. The Greek salad with chicken was ok: a little too much dressing, and not enough dill/onion/olives (black used although kalamata would be better) we ordered 2 kids meals, and I thought they would be similar to their "famous" honey mustard chicken tenders they advertise- no. They were very pre-packaged chicken nuggets that were fine- but sort of a let down. We ordered a side of their slaw, and I'm not a slaw person- it was really good. Finally, a small seafood bisque. I would have given 5 stars, but the salad, the chicken nuggets, and then... the bisque. They use imitation crab in it, and it was just eh. I wasn't excited one bit by that- and didn't really see any seafood that I recognized; in example, no shrimp, or real crab, or other fish I could name. I didn't even finish it. The people working were kind. I don't know if they offer a half hero; however just be aware- they are huge. One hero can easily feed 2-3 depending on how hungry a person is. Overall, I still recommend it for those in the area. read more

IF I COULD GIVE 7 Stars I would, I really really wood. Where do I begin, it's 4 pm and I'm driving to an Equipment store for some merch, when Tulip catches my eye. Im not sure what exactly drew me to say "let's check this place out" Omg best decision in terms of food. I did not know that the deli I'm about to walk into is going to be my favorite. The music, the staff and the aromas were so soothing and relaxing. I ordered the Mr.G hero and it was to Die for, perfect amount of chicken cutlet to bread with fresh mozzarella, lettuce and eggplant sprayed with balsamic. Top it off with some chicken vegetable soup which tasted so fresh, and lastly can't not have their eye appealing Egg salad topped with some black pepper. TO THE MAN WHO OWNS THE SPOT, you got a RETURNING CUSTOMER till I can't eat no more. Absolutely love every bit of it, can't wait till my friend Samantha tries this spot read more

Super nice people, clean! Very nice owner.. would def recommend.. catering soon, can't wait..

​ tulip Deli relies on their repute and image to swindle, deceive and gouge the consumer . One pre-made sandwich , Italian sandwich on a day-old roll and a small cream of broccoli soup , $19.95 . Go there and find out for yourself I implore you . One final comment . Try that seafood bisque and find out the scarcity of seafood and taste of slimy overcooked Taste of imitation crab . That's the truth you better believe it believe it don't believe the hype don't get brainwashed . I wish them all the success though . But I Won't Get Fooled Again neither should you read more

Love their "Grab and Go" section, I often come in and grab a sandwich, so easy!! Sandwiches are fresh and their a variety to choose from. I stop in, and in 2-3 min I'm back in my car. Love the convenience read more

I ordered a pizza burger over the phone medium well and requested the bun and sauce on the side. I made the request because I enjoy the food there but it's a 30 minute ride home and I didn't want it soggy. When I picked it up I felt like they didn't start it yet 20 minutes later. Then it came out with the bun on it and soaked in sauce. Vincent was kind enough to give me another bun. Then I returned home and re heated it in my air fryer. Took one bite and it was raw inside. I called to let Vincent know and simply asked that he remember me for next time for a sandwich. He said it doesn't work that way and asked me to send him a picture of the raw burger I already threw in the trash. Not polite at all. Believe me folks this guy is a cheap SOB. I own my own business for 25 years I'm not trying to hustle a deli for a free sandwich. I told him to GFH and I'm. Ever going back read more

I highly recommend using Tulip Caterers for your next party! My entire experience with them was excellent. Vinny was so helpful when discussing packages. Everything was easy. Day of the party Kevin arrived on time and set up the grill and took care of everything. Our guests raved about the food and experience. My parent's 50th anniversary party was a success and Tulip Caterers was one of the reasons why. I can't thank them enough! read more

Tulip Caterers did a beautiful job catering Hors d'oeuvres after my mom's Memorial Service. The food was plentiful and delicious and beautifully presented. It was a very hard day for me, but one thing i didn't have on my mind was the food. Thanks Tulip Caterers for doing a great job. read more

Tulip Deli Vinnie and crew provide the best service combined with the most delicious food. This past weekend they catered my company fishing trip, Mr G heros Italian and American as well as Multiple cold cut platters that were laid out perfectly. They take such consideration as to your event. Vin made up little condiment cups instead of large ones as he knew we were going to be on a boat. Everything worked out so well, just could have used more fish, but no reflection on Tulip. The following day Vinnie and crew provided a few hot trays and salad for my sons birthday party, again our guests could not say enough about the food. Thanks again for everything. read more

Had to order my corned beef and cabbage this st. Patrick's day. I couldn't make it myself. Tulip had an amazing corned beef and cabbage meal. And the Irish soda bread was delicious as well. I probably won't make it ever again I'll just order from them. read more

Outstanding cuisine and exceptional service! Vinny made organizing a co-worker's retirement party a seamless experience.

We anticipate collaborating with them again for future events! read more

Solid deli, everything you'd expect, but they get 5 stars from me simply for having the best cole slaw you'll find. Sounds like a crazy thing to leave a review about but I've gone in here many times to simply get Cole slaw to have as a side for meals I've made at home read more

Been a regular customer of Tulips for a good 10 years now - ever since moving into the area - it's been a short walk to & fro. On the several occasions Mr G supplied our catering needs it has hit the mark on all occasions. The last turn was a pre prom party & all the plater was ravaged by the guests - no left overs for my canine pal, Mr McGee - he was pretty upset by that. Headed back to Tulips this week for a graduation party - order in confidence read more

A Big Thank You to Vinny and his dedicated staff on providing breakfast for the morning of our daughters wedding. Not only did they deliver and set up, they delivered on personal service.

Vinny and his team did a wonderful job catering my daughter's 1st birthday BBQ at home. Everything tasted great and was put out super quick. The staff was on time, friendly, and accommodating.

Vinny and his team at Tulip Caterers did an amazing job catering my daughter's at-home Bridal Shower in July. Had to order everything over the phone and Vinny spent so much time with all of the ordering and details. Vinny was so understanding about everything having to be individually wrapped due to Covid-19 precautions. Delivery by Dino was on time and professional. The food itself was delicious and plentiful. A delicious platter of wraps, plus numerous large entree salads, small Greek and Caesar salads, macaroni salads, potato salads, and fruit salads. All of the guests loved the food and felt very secure with the individual packaging. I was so glad that I decided on Tulip Caterers to cater this special event. Would definitely recommend them to family and friends. read more

I hosted a teacher/staff appreciation breakfast for a school. First off Tulip delivered the food exactly at the time that I needed it which was for 7:15am. They not only supplied me with the trays, sternos and racks they set everything up for me. The food was delicious, the menu was amazing getting a little of everything from bagels, croissants, fruit to coffee and juice. He included everything from paper goods, utensils, napkins, cups to butter, jelly cream cheese. Each and every teacher/staff couldn't thank me enough for the food but they couldn't stop saying how delicious everything was. Going forward I would definitely use Tulip. read more

We had our child's communion party catered for about 45 people. Vinny was so helpful in guiding our food choices to make sure we covered all our bases, and all were happily fed. Delivery was on time, and we didn't have to worry about a thing (plates, utensils, napkins). The eggplant rollatini was a huge hit, and all the food was delicious. Thank you so much for making our party a huge success! read more

I hate giving bad reviews but I get deli lunch pretty frequently as a construction worker. I've been eyeing this deli for a while, looks good from the outside which is usually a good indication. After some careful review I decide to get the Spiros hero. Chicken cutlet, mozzarella, hot peppers, bacon, vodka sauce. Because honestly who doesn't like a sandwich with vodka sauce on it. He makes the entire sandwich and then tells me oh we don't have vodka sauce. Are you kidding me? I don't want to substitute with anything but reluctantly substitute it with marinara sauce which I'm not fond of since this is taking forever. So I get to the register and go to pay and it rings up with a drink and chips as $53 and change. Obviously a mistake. But then the register doesn't work so now we're just doing math in our heads. Nobody told me that I was going to have to do math at this deli, but apparently I don't have to because the cashiers A savant...At this point I just want to get out of here. Now I've already waited a while and waited for the register so I'm on my way back to my job site eating in the car because lunch breaks don't last forever. So I'm still fairly juiced about the sandwich because I'm starving. Now I bite into it and it seems weird. Oh I know, there's no Hot peppers on here. 0-3 so far. Now I eat more, turns out that there's no bacon on the sandwich either. So my chicken cutlet, bacon, mozzarella, vodka sauce, hot pepper sandwich is now just chicken Parm. Seems like I should've gotten charge for chicken Parm, but it's not chicken Parm. There's cheddar cheese on this. Sick. At least I can put the potato chips on to balance it out I suppose. What a monumentally disappointing sandwich, experience and deli. Drive down Franklin Avenue a little bit if you want something good you can go to Harvest. I gave an extra star because he took a dollar off my sandwich for no vodka sauce. read more

Tulip Caterers are AMAZING. It's Easter Sunday 12pm I completely forgot to place my order. I just called its 12:08 right now and they were able to accommodate.
