Shapiro's Deli & Cafeteria

Useful? -1

I went here with some of my friends a while back. sure , sure, they give a lot of food, but if it's a lot of food that's not tasty or at a good quality (or in my case, very dry), what good is that food? Eating is a pleasure, but when the food is something much less than pleasurable, then well eating is more like a job trying to clear the plate so you hope that you get your money's worth (which it is so not your money's worth). One word that's on the top of my list of complaints of food quality: Dry. I must say that I'm not a fan of their cheesecake either. My say on this would be: Go somewhere else. If you're hungry and you want not so appetizing food, then this is your place. Me? I like quality food- so count me out. I'll be looking to something better.

Reading the reviews, I must say I agree with the majourity of them. The food is indeed fresh and tastey (every morsel). The line can be long, but that only tells you how busy this place is, how much the people like it and how much they're willing to go through to get some of this food for lunch or something. The wait is quite worth it. The owner does interact with you (very briefly- he's very busy) when he gets the chance. The cashier is very thoughtful to your wants and needs and will substitute certain things and subtract certain things and add on certain things. You do have a choice. Lovely. The bill fits the quality and portion and all is well. did I mention that their salad bar is fresh? Good Eats.
