This lovely deli somehow survived the onslaught of dancers and dance parents that descended the last week of June 2022 for a dance Nationals competition. They worked hard and were extremely polite despite how many grill orders came in during lunchtime. The kids loved the ice cream and their freshly made to-go salads were great also. If you do not have a car they also offer a large selection of beer and wine in addition to snacks, bottled water and sundry items like Advil, Benadryl, etc. There is a nice outdoor seating area overlooking the active marina.

Really great breakfast. Extremely nice, engaging, employees. They address everyone by name and are very welcoming. They have a little market inside to stock up on anything you need for your stay or trip. The prices are lower than the hotels for basic necessities, or a quick bite. They're located right between the two Sheraton hotels along the Marina walkway.

The store feels like a mom and pop place. A bit older. They have a variety of packaged and deli food. It did take a bit longer for my breakfast items than I expected. Staff were nice.

Love this place. Have visited hundreds of times, especially for breakfast and lunch because we our sailboat slip is located on the dock out front.While it's not cheap, consistent with the location, the food quality is always excellent, well prepared with generous portions.I have 3 favorites for breakfast:. Oatmeal with raisins and nuts, watermelon and pineapple bowl (fresh!) and deviled egg sandwich.They close at six but we often bring our own wine and cheese and sit on the patio if we don't get there in time to have them prepare a cheese plate for us.

A great place for a great sandwich. Staying at the Hilton Harbor side and needed to find a place to eat. Went for a walk, found this place, had a cold sub and my wife had a hot sub and they were both fantastic!

I loved visiting this Deli! It saved me so much money and the food is really delicious! We were staying at the Sheraton Hotel and Marina and the only thing to eat over there was overpriced restaurant food. It was so nice to have this close by. The food is good, the portions are huge and the price is right for the area. You can easily share if you want. I highly recommend the breakfast burrito. So good! Also, you can't beat the view!

It was my first time visiting this deli and it was a solid spot. Great selection of sandwiches, drinks, some spirits, and snacks. Ideal if you need some food for a boat trip or just coming off the water. Even a casual bite just enjoying their patio on overlooking the water and boats. I’d for sure go back.

Simple, great view, nice people, solid food value. Beer/wine and soft drinks if you want

Yummy, fresh sandwiches. Big portions and pretty view!

Friendly and great service. Thank you.
