Elmsford, NY
This is the best deli I’ve ever been to. They have all the typical deli items plus lunch entrée specials that change every day. The BBQ outdoors on Friday’s in the summer. The food is always fresh and the staff is always friendly. Tons of space to sit inside or outside.

One of the only great delis in the Elmsford area. (Yes, I’m in the contingent that believes Frank’s is overpriced and VERY overrated).
Really friendly owner and happy employees, great food (nice deli sandwich lineup), and fair prices. They also feature an outdoor BBQ setup on Fridays beginning at the end of spring and throughout the summer, which is just brilliant. Reasonable prices and generous portions in terms of the BBQ, as you can see below.

Great Deli, in the area of Westchester, if you are in the mood of eating a good wrap, sandwich, soup or a good salad you just hit your place. I’ve eaten here tons and tons of times; I start to know about this place because my job loves to order from here. Everything I’ve had has been delicious and well made and fell so fresh. I also love to go the location itself, they have a good sitting area indoor and outdoor, the server is good, and they have a good selection for Breakfast and Lunch.
I will recommend you to order the «Carlitos Way» a chicken cutlet with thin slices of ham, melted cheddar cheese, red roasted peppers and mayonnaise you can have the option to have it on the roll, wrap or wedge.

Great deli with a wide selection of sandwich options, great breakfast options as well. Heard they do a BBQ when the weather gets warmer so we’re looking forward to that. Friendly staff, seating available outside and inside. All in all; great place to eat.

Great deli. Good size breakfast platters and sandwiches. Staff is friendly. Off beat deli and can be hard to find if you don’t know the area. It’s very easy to miss the road and you can’t see the deli from the main street. Price is a bit high but you get what you pay for.

Don’t get the hype here. Got a decent veggie wrap sandwich (apparently «grilled vegetables» = one type of vegetable, zucchini), they didn’t even heat it up, and got half a pound of the blandest fresh mozzarella I’ve ever had.

Unilocal disappointed me with this one. I was in the area and saw the good reviews so my brother and I stopped in for lunch. The menu looked good– I was excited to order a Carmela and my brother ordered a New Yorker. The first issue was the wait. The place was hardly full and we waited what seemed like an eternity for our sandwiches. When they were finally brought out the only way I could describe them is basic. Not a lot of meat and my bread was stale and hard. Anyone who thinks this is a good deli is probably pretty basic or has never been to a real italian deli.

My favorite deli in Westchester hands down
They make nice thick heroes, the service is great,
the prices are fair and the food tastes great.
Also the owner are hands on which makes the difference in this old school family style deli!

Really liked this place, other Unilocal reviews proved correct in almost every aspect. Tons of cops, check. Nice patio with lots of seating and young happy employees grilling burgers and stuff outside, check. Really pretty confusing to find/​park, check. Friendly owner, check. Had a Carmela sandwich which another Unilocaler had mentioned it was awesome, good quality meats and toppings, nice roll. Would
come back often if I lived anywhere near here.

In a word Fantastic!!!
I moved into the area 6 months ago from Manhattan. Would put this deli far above any I use to go to.
Friendly and welcoming: From the owner to the great people they have working there. ALL SUPER FRIENDLY!
Extensive menu with daily specials.
Friday BBQ’s in the summer, Friday night jam session (live music).
Worse thing I can say (selfishly) is, they are closed Sundays, so I can’t have a lazy Sunday breakfast delivery!
I would say they are certainly worth the trip or call for delivery…

I tried this place on the advice of a friend of a friend who insisted it would be «my kind of place». Man, was that ever good advice; I may love this place. It’s casual and lively and full of great characters. As one of the other reviewers mentioned, it also tends to be full of cops so if you’re not a fan of the police you may want to consider another alternative.
It’s a bit of a challenge to find; it’s on a one-​way street going in what feels like the wrong direction, and parking is challenging, at best, but, if you want a grinder (yeah, I’m from Rhode Island… it’s not a wedge (that’s when your underwear rides up) or a hoagie or a sub, it’s a grinder… dammit) that’s bigger than your head and made with high-​quality ingredients, this is your place.
I’ve even introduced my customer, who happens to be the reason I’m in the area in the first place, to Carmine’s and now he’s a fan. You probably will be, too. Try it!

I heard about this deli on Unilocal.I was nearby and decided to try and find it (a little tricky!). Right off the bat, I’ll tell you this place is frequented by local cops, so if seeing a bunch of guys with guns and badges freaks you out, don’t go here.
The joint is jumpin and it’s a nice day so lots of people sitting outside. I order one of their custom concoctions and grab a bag of chips and a bottle of water. The sammy, on a roll, was $ 7.50…not outrageous but not on the cheap side either.
There’s a drum kit set up inside but I have no idea if and when they have live music. They are only open until 4pm, so who knows.
Good enough to return to if I’m in the area, but not going out of my way to go.

Hard to find when you go by the Unilocal maps, but worth looking for this little gem! Its near Winthrop Ave., not near the country club. Wish we had a place like this near us in MA. Got the roast beef with coleslaw and Russian dressing. It was great! If anyone is passing by this area you need to stop by. They have a ton of creative sandwich options. Very friendly staff too. :)

Stopped in at Carmine’s while on a business trip and the Unilocal reviews didn’t let me down. I had the Carmela which was one hell of a sandwich. The usual Italian meats — prosciutto, soppresata, hot capicolla, provolone, lettuce, tomato, sweet peppers, oil & vinegar. Great flavor!

Very good food, a little pricey. But the quality of the food is usually solid.
I just wish their hours were later.

Carmine’s is the reason I love Unilocal.What a find/​gem. We were in Sleepy Hollow, NY playing tourist and wanted something interesting for lunch. Out comes the iPhone and in minutes Unilocal suggests Carmine’s Deli. We give up our parking spot and were off for a foodie adventure.
The space is an interesting mix with outdoor seating, inside seating that is a mix of mismatched tables and chairs, deli coolers and counter and a small bandstand. Fun! While I was there a string of regulars came in for lunch and to pick up to-​go orders.
The is vast; spanning breakfast, deli sandwiches, paninis, and wraps, BBQ, a specials board, soups and more.
The meatball parm sandwich is ver good. Fluffy meat balls lightly coated with tomato sauce and mozzarella on your choice of bread.
Wish I lived closer to explore the menu. Today I’d try a corned beef panini!
Yum!

Carmine’s is becoming my favorite lunch spot when I’m in Elmsford.
I’m still working my way through their menu, but I haven’t had a bad sandwich here yet. My favorite so far: the vegetarian – grilled zucchini and yellow squash w/​roasted red peppers, mozzarella, and balsamic.
If it’s a nice day out, they have a really nice patio and it’s excellent to sit outside and eat. They also seem to go by the honest system here if you’re eating in. After you eat, you go up to the register and tell them what you had. Not too many places do that anymore, which is nice.
Heads up: Debbie P is right about the address being wrong here. Carmine’s is on 7 Old Rd, Elmsford (NOT 7 Old Rd West). If you put 7 Old Rd W into your GPS, you’ll end up going through a golf course and then end up in someone’s driveway. Not fun.

Its a deli restaurant, and not fancy but its a really good one, plus charm of a local hangout. It has a pleasant patio by a park or eat inside.
ATTENTION: Unilocal has the address wrong and the owner says he can’t get them to correct it to SEVEN (7) Old Road. 5 Old road will lead you to a private residence.
Anyway…tons of deli sandwiches (my corned beef on Rye for $ 6.95 was excellent).
They also have breakfast and plate lunches. We also had a rare roast beef with mashed potatoes, gravy and wonderfully seasoned squash plate for $ 9.95. Honestly the plate was more than I should have eaten…3 quarters of a pound of beef or more… but I finished it anyway. Friendly staff and from the posters inside, occasional local type events such as all you can eat type meals. Worth a try.
