Not what it used to be

by balihi

I hadn't been to New York Deli news for quite sometime, and decided to treat a friend to a real deli dinner. This was not the place to go. My corned beef sandwich was as dry as a piece of cardboard, and just as cold and tasteless. My friend ordered the matzo ball soup. The broth was okay, but the HUGE matzo ball has absolutely no flavor what-so-ever. It tasted like a large lump of dough put into a bowl of chicken broth. We were there at dinner time, around 6 o'clock, and the place was empty. I guess word has gotten around about how much this restaurant has changed. I know I won't be going back!

• Pros: Good pickles

i used to work here and the owners are complete jerks and could care less about anyone else but themselves. The wait stuff is very friendly depending on their mood that day. the food is was too over priced for a deli

Mixed Results!

by DenverDave

Buyer beware! The few times my wife and I have visited New York Deli News the food has been good. The service is a little mixed, we have had a great server and a couple bad servers. However, our last trip was a disappointment. We had decided to go for a mid-week dinner since we received a coupon in the mail for buy one get one free, but when it came time to pay the coupon was not honored. This is partly our fault so read the coupon very, very carefully. We went during the requested times, ordered the necessary drinks, but when it came time to pay it had to be in CASH, which was detailed on a separate part of the coupon. So our mid-week dinner that was going to be a unusual treat for us turned into a $35-40 dinner at a deli. We feel the coupon was misleading and the cashier didn't care at all. We asked if they had an ATM and she said somewhere across the street had one. It was a kind of gotcha, scenario!!! As small business owners my wife and I just were not impressed. I guess they were right when they say "Now Entering NY" at the entrance...they just don't care!

• Pros: Good Food
• Cons: Mixed Service, Misleading Coupons...
