Shortstop Deli - Ithaca

My favorite vegetarian sandwich line, ever. 5 years ago moved to California, but had to leave the way to take a bite while visiting NY because it is so good!

Seems to be a must-visit if you?re in town, so stopped by for a bagel. The sandwiches looked fantastic and according to all the other reviews are a must try. The bagel was great and the cream cheese delicious. No place to sit inside so be ready to take out. Service was fast and friendly.

Best subs and cheesesteaks in Ithaca by a country mile. Really good bread quality and sandwich ingredients, and huge portions. Beautiful neon signs, hacky convenience store-items, and the ceiling dripping into a bucket set the ambiance to your gastronomic romp. It really doesn't even get close so there's no second place, but I guess that stand in Wegmans can get an honorable third mention. Definitely don't get the tater tots tho, but why would you at a sub store?

This would have been a easy 5 star rating if the customer service was better. I went to place my order and the young lady with tattoos on wrist is the one who took my order. I explained to her I wanted my sub ran through the belt oven twice. She began to talk over me and Tell me I get it you want it toasted extra crispy . Well I was the only person in line important to know , my sub came out and I requested again please run it twice , she said if she ran it twice it burn so she folded the sub and stuck it in for the third time while baby sitting it ........ see where I'm going with this ? That belt oven bakes food while be ran through the oven . My point is prioritize your time in the restaurant business. Imagineif you were busy . I've been in restaurants since I was 12 busting tables and doing dishes. I'm been a sous chef and a assistant chef for over 10 years in fine dining restaurants. But people's pride and the fact that cooking is becoming less and less of a skill because of machines is the reason I got out and run my own business with animals. People need to listen to what the customer wants and be open to suggestions. It's unbelievable how people don't even do that any more. On a positive not the sub was good. And I will stop bye again. I just wanted to post this complaint so it can be handled differently next time. No worries still the best sub and bank for buck in Ithaca.

We were visiting from Cleveland for the holiday weekend. After a Hike by the Ithaca Falls, we discovered this great looking deli shop. It was beyond amazing and delicious! Everything is made fresh in front of you. Their sandwiches are huge, filling and stuffed with toppings. You definitely get your money?s worth. Their chili is also phenomenal. I highly recommend this deli stop to anyone local and visiting. The staff is the nicest group of people. Very friendly, polite and helpful. Thank you for a great experience :
