Best sandwiches on Long Island. Specifically the Chicken Club W/fresh mozz and Cole slaw. People come here from all over the tri state area. Line out the door all the time. Call your order in for pickup.

I’ve been coming to My Hero Deli for years and was a huge fan of the previous owners, Dominic and Anthony. They created something really special, and I’m happy to say the new owners, Chris and his partner, have totally kept that spirit alive. They’re super hands-on and really care about the place. The food is just as amazing as ever actually, maybe even better. Everything is super fresh, the sandwiches are massive, and the prices are still really fair. The staff is great too, especially seeing familiar faces from back in the day who still know exactly how to make everything the way we all remember. The place has had a nice update, and the new kitchen setup is awesome. I think the old owners would definitely be proud of the improvements. Also love that they’re open seven days a week now n

★★★☆☆ 3.0 James Darmofal · Mar 2026

After hearing how great this place is I was disappointed after finally getting there. Ordered the all American w/ mayo. Why the would put oil and vinegar and mayo on the same sandwich is beside me. Roast beef in the sandwich was totally lacking any flavor. Also I don’t want to hear about how iceberg lettuce is $76 a case when a gentleman asked for a side of mustard and you were charging him $1 for it. 1 and done.

Well I used to come here 2/3 times a week and now no more besides it’s over priced and always getting my orders wrong WE HAD A Catastrophic experience with my wife and our sandwiches yesterday for us and the kids. Never in my life have I seen a bug that big walking on the deli meat! We had to be polite and then leave and go to rvc for lunch! Never will be back again as a regular super dissapointed with the way things have gone these past months . Many praise this place , I thought it was OK at first kind of like a step up from a subway or Quiznos - But now it’s off my list and friends and families also, do not recommend, never know how Old the food is your eating or what’s crawled on it

★★★★★ 5.0 Joseph Lanzarotta · Aug 2024

Finally after years of wanting to come here I finally did and I regret not visiting sooner! Had the fan favorite club sandwich with the works and WOW was it one of the best chicken sandwiches I’ve eaten! Chicken was cooked perfectly and nice and think and all the toppings went well together and a great bread they use! I see they now carry semolina and I need to try a sandwich on that as well and I love the old school feel to the place great potato salad as well prices I feel are very fare Cash only and cash only places are some of the best! Can’t wait to try different sandwiches and I’m excited they will be open on Sundays soon so I could visit more!!
