      Friendly service....Delicious food...Easy to reach location...Reasonable prices...

      Many people go there specifically for their eggplant and chicken parm ~ so call and order ahead!

      Enough said?

      Great local deli!

      John's Deli has been a fixture in Windsor Terrace for more years that I can remember. I stopped in to grab a sandwich and I was disappointed. I ordered an Italian Combo, and I took it to go. This was the classic case of quantity, not quality. There was nothing remarkable about it, it had way too many roasted peppers, and way too much vinegar. I sorry, but I will not be back!

      Friendly staff. Great food. Egg sandwiches come with two eggs. Coffee has a wide variety of milk options. Matt and Nick were of great help.

      Cozy spot with consistently delicious sandwiches!

      Was waiting for my kids to finish at the photo store and I was hungry. Saw John's Dei across the street and ordered a ham, Swiss, turkey sandwich with lettuce tomato and Mayo.

      Usually, a lot of places mess up on this simple sandwich but not John's deli. Good portion of meats for the price.

      Guy working behind counter very friendly and nice. Great neighborhood spot.

      Ham, Swiss, turkey with lettuce, tomato and Mayo.

      I eat here whenever I can- beef or chicken stew, meatloaf, lasagna, breakfast sandwiches, bagels (try the pumpernickel. Trust me!), coffee & soft drinks from the cooler- it's all good!
      I have been known to/rumored to/accused of planning my work schedule around the menu. Seriously.
      Excellent customer service. Incredible food. It's a win-win!

      These guys are seriously the best. Great sandwiches and bagels and their prepared foods are delicious too. They kept Windsor Terrace stocked up when the pandemic was at its height, so all us KWT folks appreciate that more than their awesome food. The lads are all super nice too, proper old school NY vibe.

      John's Deli Is the neighborhood go to for any small time groceries, like milk or bagels if you don't want to run to the supermarket. I apartment/cat sat in the neighborhood so John's Deli was easy go to for me

      Glad we explored John's Deli, wanted really good roast beef, not boars head, but the kind that is made in house. John's had it and it was excellent!! We got a pound of the roast beef to take back to Pennsylvania and had them make a sandwich for us to take to Dyker Heights for the lights. I had a lot of special requests on the sandwich and all were satisfied without any fuss. 100% EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE A+++++++++++++. Will make this our go to place when traveling from PA for good roast beef, sandwiches, bagels and bread!!!

      Great local deli, with fresh bagels from La Bagel Delight. Seriously one of the cleanest, most orderly delis I've ever set foot in. Friendly staff, too.
