I came to pick up my weekly order from Ben's Wheatley Plaza and was met with an unexpected surprise - they have completely transformed their facility into a wildlife sanctuary for endangered species! I couldn't believe my eyes and ears and immediately converted my order to dine-in. Most notably was the African Ceiling Bird, a rare species whose chirp is as beautiful as they are elusive. You may have difficulty spotting them though, as they only account for about 13% of the facility's offerings. Don't be remiss if you miss them though, as their chirps can be heard as far as the parking lot! BRAVO, Ben's! Gestures like this are what keep us coming back. If you're on the fence, there's no competition to the Pastrami on Rye nor the famous and elusive African Ceiling Bird!

Really good food but stingy with their mustard. We order here couple of times a month while at work. Best meats in town and what is super good with their meats? Their MUSTARD! It’s a little spicy and addictive! But they are really stingy with it. We do over a $100 order and if we don’t buy extra mustard they only give you ONE small container of mustard for 4x sandwiches, a knish, 3x hot dogs and some appetizers, Ridiculous! Our boss got a sandwich to go so we just gave him the one container and used Gulden’s in the frig. We’ll gladly pay more we just didnt know we had to. I called them a couple of weeks ago to see if this was normal which they apologized and said we should have gotten more and they just did it again today… Also the people at work have mixed feelings about their se

The large restaurant is located in Greenvale(Long Island), New York. It is in the Wheatley Plaza shopping mall. They prepare kosher deli cuisine. Soups, salads, appetizers, entrees, platters, beverages and desserts are available. I ordered the corned beef sandwich which consisted of a generous portion of meat. The matzo ball soup was tasty with a firm matzo ball. The square knishes were fresh. The food was well-prepared. Friendly and helpful staff.

As a 28-year restaurant and food service veteran I cannot say enough good things about this specific location! Everything from the service,the cleanliness and camaraderie between the staff is nothing short of amazing. This is truly how all food establishments should be run. As much as I enjoy the other Ben's locations throughout Long Island this is one of my favorites by far.

Old stand by...a version of the Jewish deli that used to exist in every neighborhood at one time but are disappearing. The quality is uneven but the range of foods is remarkable and old favorites that aren't available elsewhere can be found here. The waiter brings you to your table carrying bowls of pickles and cole slaw to nosh. Dr. Browns soda is on the menu and the pastrami... well, it's better than pastrami you get from the supermarket but lacks the smokey bark and juniper sweetness of the very best of its kind. Nonetheless, there is something for everyone here and most of it is at least good. Hats off for trying to keep the tradition alive.
