The purpose of this review is not to hate or harm this store in any way, shape, or form. That being said, I hope you take this review as an informative review. Atmosphere: I'll say that this Deli looks like other recent Delis that have come up around Brooklyn. I mean, it looks kind of new from the outside and the inside. You can tell the difference between a sort of new Deli and an old one. Service: So, I don't really know who manages the store or if there is more than one manager, but a lady was there the day I went. She seemed like one of those impatient ladies. Nevertheless, that was a "don't judge a book by its cover" moment. I was trying to buy a sandwich with a low sodium protein for personal reasons. I kindly asked the lady if I could try a small piece of their regular turkey to see how salty it was before telling them to make the sandwich. She agreed, informed the guy about it, and made sure the guy made the sandwich the way I needed it to be. As you can see from the picture, it looks like a regular turkey sandwich. However, the service is what makes it different, and I really appreciate that. Food: I can only talk about the turkey sandwich I bought. It was a good sandwich. I wished there could've been more variety of vegetables to add to my sandwich, but I understand that they probably ran out of those vegetables. Other than the food at the grill, I guess you'll be able to find other things you'd usually see at a Deli store. Price: From what I remember, the price of the sandwich was pretty much the same most Delis have. It's not a head breaker. I'll say prices are decent.

I go to Firehouse all the time. Family-owned business, and they're very friendly. Owner has price-matched products that I've found a bit cheaper at nearby stores, which is a great way to build a loyal customer base, imo. He's even offered to bring in a specialty dog food for me to save me a couple bucks on what I pay elsewhere. Good people.

10/10 experience every time I come in. They always have what I need and Leila behind the counter is the sweetest lady ever. She’s very helpful and always puts a smile on my face. Very sad to be moving away from this store. The food is fantastic, there aren’t any bugs flying around, and it’s very clean inside. I’ve ordered over 100 sandwiches here over the last 2 years and they’ve always been great no matter what time it is. The old guy who makes the food late night is awesome too. Highly recommend this very well ran establishment. Any bad review must be from a generally angry person or they were having a bad day because I don’t have a single bad thing to say about this place or the people that work here. I’d have my wedding here if I could.

My phone died in Williamsburg and I was lost and they allowed me to plug my phone in to recharge a little bit, so I could at least use Uber. I am thankful for the people in this establishment for their kindness

At the grill it depends on who is making your sandwich. New young guy gets it wrong every time so i try to be very specific and explicit ordering “regular turkey NOT honey turkey” get home to open my sandwich and find its honey. This has happened multiple times. He was talking on his phone and watching tiktoks at the same time. Roommate asked for pickles, we watched him put jalepenos on instead. It shouldnt be this hard to get what you order.

Luis Rosado

Depends who's there. All I know is I'd really like to give a nice Will Smith slap to a certain register guy there. The old guy who makes the sandwiches is descent but you should definitely stay and watch your food being made.

They make it however they make it. "No meat" evidently means a lot of salt, wrong cheese and no condiments you ordered. ( ...🤔 Probably, a boomer run business.) Also charged 8 dollars for ice cream that is priced $3.49. They 100% don't care about your business as it's next to the foot patrol cop shop and a bus stop so always busy, these reviews mean nothing to them.

If I could give a worse review I would. I ordered a Caesar salad wrap and got chicken with honey mustard instead. Went in to ask them to remake it with the correct recipe and they just yelled at me and argued back, providing no solution. Never going back again, especially knowing about their unhygienic practices.

Unhygienic. As I’m writing this review my roommate is puking from a sub he got at this poopy deli (godfather sandwich). Avoid at all costs if you value your health.

Horrible service. The man behind the counter yelled at me “what do you want?? What do you want??” while I had been looking at the menu and had said “hi, one moment I’m just looking” and I’d love to say this is the first time but I live around the corner and this is every time.

Overcharged me for items multiple times but $3.50 for a stick of chapstick is insane!

Crooked business. No prices listed on anything, entirely determined by which cashier is working. Used to go here daily but they’ve tried to rip me off too many times. Go literally anywhere else in the area.

Pay attention to the unhygienic reviews because they lack food safety measures here, and I would not trust any food from this establishment. I ordered mozzarella sticks, and to my surprise when I got home and took a bite, they were spoiled. The cheese was rock hard and dark yellow, I don’t even want to know the level of spoilage that they were at. Now for incident 2, cause I knew I wouldn’t be trying food from here again, but decided to grab a coffee thinking that can’t go wrong… surprise surprise, there was a roach on the machine. I wouldn’t be surprised if they have mice either seeing as they keep their doors open often, in a clearly rodent infested neighborhood. If you’re serving spoiled dairy products, I can only imagine the meat is bad too. Save yourself from the stomach virus and eat elsewhere.

Do not go here. Especially at night. They will purposefully over charge when paying with card and give wildly incorrect cash change when they think you are not paying attention. They yell when confronted and are outright robbing people over unhygienic food. There are many other delis in the neighborhood that can accommodate Do not spend your money here.

I been here 3 times !! One time the deli OLD DUDE so disrespectful and yelling at me! Second time , me asking for a sandwich he yelled at me NOT ON THE MENU !! 3rd time he het got mad at me for asking mayo !! It’s always the same story

Got some sliced cheese. The owner appeared from behind the counter with greasy hands and asked me with a huge attitude, "What is this?!" I told him it was sliced cheddar and he said $4. I gave him my $5. He just disappeared behind the counter and yelled "Thank you!" without giving me the change! A lot of people around the neighborhood has complained about different problems every time they walk in. The male owner is usually very rude. They do have a good sandwich menu but I'm not going through the trouble to see these people again. There are other better places around the neighborhood.

I live across the street and used to love the people who worked here. Apparently they got new management, fired all the amazing workers, and hired new horrible ones. I never go here anymore considering the few times I have they have tried to over charge me in a sly way. I would ask prices on everything before buying, they charged me around $4 for a grilled cheese the other day. On top of that the main 2 guys that are always working there these days are off putting. Definitely would choose the deli on suydam and Wilson - good people and honest prices.

Unhygenic cooking station, weird employees (one of them asked to use my zelle for their own money transfer, "i can give you the cash" he said????????). The two closest options in terms of delis have nicer/less creepy employees and are way cleaner, go to either one of those instead.
