Delmonico - New York

Best buffet. I was even say it was a bit upscale as far as food choices go. It is a not pricey, but worth it.

Yo as far as a midtown deli goes in the city, this is what you’re looking for. It’s consistent, tasty and fast. Not sure what else you need. They’ll make you nervous when ordering but we love that. :

Good food, sus energy from the staff. I come here on occasion to pick up lunch. They have a variety of food items like cold sandwiches, hot sandwiches, wraps, taco bowls, quesadillas, salads, a hot bar (weight based) and more! Food is a bit pricey however it is usually a lot of food. I’ve tried a bit of everything and it’s all pretty good. Additionally you are able to take your food to go, or sit in the back where they have some tables and seating.. nothing special but still a good place to sit and enjoy your lunch. The staff however occasionally make me feel uncomfortable by winking at me, calling me different ‘pet names’ and making flirty comments.. telling me to ‘smile.’

We have used Delmonico several times for catering corporate meetings of various sizes and have been very happy with customer service, quality/quantity of the food, and presentation. With time sensitive deliveries—we especially appreciate how flexible they’ve been with customization, and their punctuality. Would definitely recommend them to others. As an aside—they are able to accommodate a number of dietary restrictions including gluten free, vegetarian, and dairy free. They may be able to do more on an as-needed basis, but these were the handful we specifically inquired after and had positive experiences with.

Christmas music, a friendly smile and greeting at the door, a helpful cook who offered suggestions on what to put in my omelette. Awesome experience and not at all what I expected when I walked into a midtown establishment right before a stressful meeting!
