Reviews Summary
Geno's Italian Deli is celebrated for its incredibly generous portions of fresh, delicious food and authentic Italian flavors, making it a local gem. Diners rave about the massive sandwiches, pizzas, and especially the value of the huge, affordable desserts. While the food is consistently praised, a few reviews mention potential inconsistencies in bread texture and thinness of meat fillings, with some experiencing slow service during peak times. However, the friendly staff and overall quality make it a highly recommended spot.
"You can tell a sandwich shop is excellent when there are almost no seats and a line almost out the door. The portions are LARGE - the hot dogs are served on sub rolls! We heard other customers exclaim at the size of the food as well. The menu is so large that I don't know how they keep track of all the options they have. I recommend looking at the menu online before going because two of the four walls are menu options! Next time we're going to make sure we save room for coffee 🤣"

"Ohh my goodness, this was a pleasant surprise. First the staff is friendly and welcoming. Food is amazingly fresh and service was what you would expect in a classic NY deli. The flavors of my Jr. classic Italian sub was perfect I added jalapeños and sriracha mayo and a side of side of pickles and olives. So delicious my Italian husband had classic turkey club and antipasto salad. We are both very pleased to have finally make it in on time as they close at 2. They have amazing menus and selection. If you leave this place still hungry that’s on you. This little place is exceptional."
