A diner from Morrisville, NC

Speaking as someone who grew up in and around delis of all kinds, I was pleased to see a 'real' NY deli near my work. But what it calls itself, and what it really is, are two different things.
On my first visit, I had the misfortune of ordering a 'steak bomb'. And it was a HUGE mistake. I worked my way through college as a grill cook, and I was disappointed to see them using canned mushrooms and peppers, and pre-cooked onions for the steaks. All of this, when combined with the oil that was used to cook the frozen portions of steaks, and grill the bread, turned the sandwich into nothing more than a tasteless ball of mush. There was no flavor, and it was just horrible.
On my sencond (and last) visit, I had a 'suprimo wrap. WHile it was nice looking, the eggplant was barely there, and was, again, greasy.
Pass on this place. It has the New York name, but does not back it up with the food.

I stopped here for lunch one day, and was shocked at what I saw. Grill items are kept in a bus pan next to the grill. With no refrigeration, and the heat from the grill, it is not safe. Employees were handling food with NO covering on their hands. One was coughing all over the place, and making sandwiches.
I admit, some of the items are good - the crumb cake), but most are overrated, and way overpriced. For all of the 'homemade' talk, you can tell that so much comes from food service. Frozen 'homemade' brownies and cookies. Frozen 'NY' bagels. I do not care where they are shipped from, REAL NY bagels are NOT frozen.
Speaking as someone who LOVES deli food, this one is a pass. The only 'NY flair' is the one that reminds me of the Manhatten streetcorner hot dog cart. And the cleanliness level matches.
Dirty floors, dried meat on slicers. In a word....

WOW!! What an amazing place to eat! The owners, Frank and Tom, are both incredibly friendly and always make me feel welcome! The food was unbelievable, and I have no idea how some of these people could say it wasn't! I try to go every week and order something different, and I've yet to be disappointed!

Took my daugher to lunch today at the Morrisville Deli. Every time I go, we try something different. My new favorite is the Sicilian Panini. My daughter had the Steak Bomb, real steak, not just slices of meat, fresh homemade mozzarella, made to order and delicious. Can't wait to go back with more friends and try something else off their menu!

My co workers took me here for my birthday today and it was absolutely fantastic. I had a roasted red pepper wrap that was out of this world.The menu selection is huge and everything was fresh and delicious. The cappuccino cheese cake was the best. I see why my co workers have been raving about this place. It will be a regular stop for me from now on.

As an employee of this establishment, I read the single one star review posted and literally laughed out loud. The reviewer makes sweeping statements on our food and couldn't be farther from the truth. Trust all the five star reviews, because this is the best place around.

This place is awesome. I heard about this place from some friends and recently visited the deli and all I can say is "AWESOME" The Menu of sandwiches are incredible and the price is right. They have Boars' head coldcuts and they roast their own fresh turkeys and roast beef everyday. What a fresh change to all the chain food crap that is out there...I have been back several times and am I am hooked....try it, you will too!

Overpriced canned food. After rave reviews I was surprised to find that the steak sandwiches are made with canned mushrooms, canned peppers and a greasy meat comparable to 'Steak-ems' If the owners are really from New York shame on them for serving a sandwich that originated in the north in such a disgraceful manner.

Best place for lunch in the Triangle. The menu was perfect, the food was perfect, and the people were great. I will eat here as often as I can, and tell all my friends. The owners are from New York and both owned deli's there. WOW!

Just found this place by chance this morning on the way to play golf with some friends. We were just looking for something fast but when we walked in and saw the they make eggs on the grill we ended up staying for an hour!! The breakfast was great and the bagels are the best around. Come to find out they get the dough shipped from the Bronx NY and baked them on premises. I just found my new favorite place to eat!!

Good food but kind of expensive. Side portions are small.

Great place with very nice people. True Deli sandwiches with lots and lots of meat, not like the other joints who count how many slices to add. The condiments make the sandwiches even better!! The Turkey sandwich with cranberries, smoked bacon, etc is AWESOME!!!

The food here is always fresh, and reminds me of the classic northeastern deli that I grew up with, they even have Boar's Head meats! There is so much variety on the menu that there is almost definitely something to accommodate anyone's taste...if not, the deli staff is more than happy to make you a customized sandwich, wrap or panini. They also serve breakfast (egg sandwiches made-to-order, french toast, homemade home fries). It's delicious! My family and I are excited to welcome The Morrisville Deli to the neighborhood!
