    Spicy Buffalo Chicken Wing Pizza
    Natalie C.

    Started our day off with coffee, which this place was a quick, convenient walk from the cabin we were staying at. Coffee and Lotus drinks were good, quick, and affordable. Locals are so sweet. Was greeted by the workers immediately and then also by a group of older gentleman having breakfast. Had ended our night with a pizza that sounded too good to pass up. It was delicious and also decent pricing. Tip: One lady told me that the medium & large pizza are basically the same amount of slices, ones just a little bigger, so incase you want to save a few bucks. Again the locals amazed me by asking about our puppy and chit-chatting. We've been to other small towns and some people are not as friendly to vacationers, so it made our trip wonderful. 10/10 recommend this little deli though for a quick bite or a quick drink. I think their sign said live music on Fridays as well, so pop by to see what's going on(:

    I suggest checking their hours - I was there on a Tuesday but it says it's closed on Yelp. Nitpicky wise, I was watching their video drink offerings while I waited and ordered a hibiscus gin and tonic. It was given to me in a cosmopolitan style glass, with no ice, instead of the glass in the photo (a normal highball glass) Tasty but very hard to pick up and got warm quickly. My sandwich took way longer to get than I expected, especially as I was the only customer at the time - I've worked on the sandwich/cold line at multiple restaurants in my day, so I don't think I'm out of line in having timeline expectations. I think part of it was while I ordered a cold sandwich (on purpose, toasty bread tends to cut the roof of my mouth up), they ended up toasting the bread as if it were a hot sandwich - and I assume the person didn't know the menu. I said I'd wanted regular/plain chips and I got maui onion, possibly that was the only option or it was that and salt and vinegar, I was a bit confused by that. While that wasn't optimal, the sandwich was extremely delicious, with ingredients evenly distributed (hey usually there's a big lump of meat in the middle and stuff is all over the place, so I really value this!) and the bread was in my top 5 of all the breads I have ever had a sandwich on in 50 years of being alive, going to culinary school, and being picky about where I eat. Wherever they get their rolls from is made of magic. I admit I don't have a ton of experience in places in smaller town counter service places where you bus your own table and tip before you've even gotten food. I felt awkward when I tried to make eye contact/body language in a drawn out way to say thanks to the employee 8 feet away on my way out to say thanks and it was great! but they were engaged in a personal conversation with a relative that had come in - and didn't look at me or acknowledge me at all as I left despite facing me and not really be able to miss me being there. I may be old fashioned, but a friendly greeting and a polite goodbye is my expectation when I'm the only customer in a place, regardless of what I tip. So basically I would eat there again - if I was local I'd make it a go to, but as a visitor to the city, I sure wouldn't tip 25% tip when ordering, after my experience for sure. I'd considered going back to get pizza for dinner due to pizza reviews, but felt too awkward after the impersonal experience. Long review but I have a lot of feelings about my money spent on food service. TL:DR Eat there at least once if you are in the area, because your taste buds will be happy, you can decide if your customer service experiences are good personally or not and you want to be a regular/how to tip.

    Reuben sandwich, salmon sammie and some chili
    Matt C.

    My wife and I decided to have our family time at a little cafe/deli called Union Square Deli. She is a frequent customer and has been since she was first pregnant, and had to drive by often to go to the doctor's appointments. I had never been, but since I'm a Yelp kind of person, I'm curious to try new places. The menu seemed unremarkable, like menus I have seen before. But a couple of things I will remember. It's not only a deli, but also has an ice cream area, and a whole separate section for bar/ alcohol area. Also, as you'll notice in the close-up picture, they seem to have what I consider dark rye bread which I find at very few places. My Reuben sandwich was extra yummy because it had thick dark rye bread, with what I consider a fair amount of meat, and tasted very good especially with some chili dolloped on top. Also for you people that have Celiac or are gluten free, my wife would approve, because they have gluten-free crust for the pizzas, and gluten-free bread which she had on her favorite sandwich the salmon sammie. The chili was also gluten-free approved.. For those looking for some ambiance, it seemed pretty low-key on a Saturday afternoon but I also noticed on their chalkboard they seem to have open mic night every Friday evening.. For those of you who like extra sauce, the waitress was very nice and she brought me some Tapatio and a bottle of ketchup:)

    Second time visiting and decided to try the veggie panini with a side snickerdoodle cookie. Starting out, service is quick and attentive. Very accommodating for substitutions and super friendly. Lovely little seating area with a cute little bar. Food came out quickly. And plenty of food it was. My panini was about twice the size I was expecting. Toasty with plenty of filling, I thought the honey mustard was a nice contrast of taste with the veggies and provolone I had them substitute for the Swiss. Took home the second half for a snack later. The snickerdoodle was good size and had a good amount of cinnamon sugar. The only change I wish was that it would be slightly warmed until a light crust developed. I am notoriously picky about my snickerdoodles as warm cookies were the main reason I showed up for high school. All in all, I would definitely recommend this deli. We'll be back soon.

    Chicken Caesar salad

    The steak sandwich was good. So was the Chicken Cesar salad. The Pizza was freshly made but adequate. There aren't any places near by at the same price point so you don't really have a choice.

    French dip
    Stephen W.

    We went here for dinner on a Saturday night and had a good experience. Located just minutes away from the Alderbrook resort. It's smallish and a fit for DDD--nothing fancy but making great homemade food. The pizza was excellent, crispy thin crust and generous toppings. I had a small veggie pie and the kid had a cheese pizza. Tons of fresh cheese. My veggie pie was one of the best I've had. The wife had a French Dip and loved it. Everything is cooked in the oven. I suspect we will return before our departure.

    Timberdoodl Timberdoodle Pizza
    Siamen M.

    Every time we visit this area, Union Square Deli is our must stop eatery. They have good coffee, good ice cream and great sandwiches. This time, we ordered pizza and sandwiches. We are staying in the near by hotel. Comparing to the hotel's restaurant price, this place is half the price and better food. I ordered the Timberdoodle pizza. Alfredo sauce with chicken and artichokes. But by accident, I got the Barge. Although that looks really good with loaded of ingredients. I don't eat pork, so I went back and got the right pizza. I was not disappointed. The flavor of the sauce is not overly salty. Most of the flavor is from the ingredients naturally. The dough is just right. Not too chewy. For $20 with a large pizza, I will come here again.

    Dill pickle pizza and fried artichoke hearts. Yes please. A fun unique selection of pizzas. Which…read moreis what we had. But the tapas selection was nice, wish we had more room to eat more. Nice attentive server and quiet feel. Nice on a sleepy Sunday for lunch. Wish I lived closer and not passing through. A worthy visit and hopefully will return.

    Our experience was a mix of frustration & disappointment. Pics of pizza looked delicious so we were…read moreexcited to try a newer place in Shelton. We were trying for a good 20+ mins to place an online order, the site was difficult to use... hubby gave up so I tried placing by phone, calling a couple times but just got voicemail, ugh. So then I attempt to place online, finally got done but was confusing. It stated certain pizzas etc had an "online discount" but when you go to pay there's no discount shown. So again I try and call, no luck. So I just go ahead and pay the charge which sounded a bit extreme then it asks you to include a TIP! At this point that seemed a joke but threw in $2 bucks more. Then I realize the confirmation says pickup the NEXT DAY!!! Again try calling and no answer. At some point I left a voicemail but hubby was upset seeing the added confusion and took off to go in person to deal with it. So he gets back with the 1 pizza (they are just one size and pics made it seem large enough for 2 people) plus we ordered a salad to share. $45!! He shows me the size of both and we realized this was probably a mistake. Sure enough the pizza (which he ordered extra crisp crust) was so paper thin yet crispy on top but still floppy bottom which I hate. It was a chicken Alfredo but you could barely detect the cream sauce, we added onions and couldn't see them nor could you tasted the chicken but maybe a few morsels. It looked like a plain round flatbread with some cheese and a touch of spinach and couple chunks of artichoke. Looked better than it tasted, I sadly had one piece. The salad $15! Yes it did have plenty of the toppings and overkill on onions ironically but we added pepperoni and it was just skimpy on top. The Italian dressing was oddly sweet. The salad just should have been bigger. The pizza was lacking everything and crust was also disappointing. I hate giving a poor review but we were upset from start to finish.
