Bacon, eggs, and cheese is SO good! Will definitely be back! Easy to access from The Millennium Hotel!
Went to this spot several times in the last two weeks. Always friendly staff and the beer is ice cold in the refrigerator. Stays open relatively late.
Decent little bodega for a BEC sandwich (bacon, egg, cheese). Traditional style, thick cut bacon, served on a nice thick roll. Great spot for an on the go meal!
I have spent much time, and a fair few dollars, in desperation to find the best Deli in Manhattan. Thankfully, the thousands of steps and sleepless nights have not gone to waste. Just as I was about to give up all hope, I stumbled into 45 Deli and ordered the 'Reuben'. Believe me when I say, it doesn't get much better than this! If you're round the corner, down the street, or even in the same timezone, I would thoroughly recommend this deli.
Most mornings I can say that this is a solid spot for your best breakfast sandwiches for the area (this area has subpar deli breakfast sammies in general) at a decent price. The rolls are normally the best and for the most part, they cook the eggs just how you order them. There's only been a few times there's been errors and they've stopped allowing us to carry in the puppy while placing the order, overall I still have to give them a good review; I had a pastrami hero called the "Havana" last night and it was to die for at just under the $10 price point which is a good price for all the flavor they packed in there with delicious and super thin cut pickles, warm and juicy pastrami, sharp melted Swiss, and your standard spicy brown mustard all in a wonderfully, perfectly toted hero bread that was just to magical at 10:30 (so convenient to have this yummy deli here when I wanna pop out of bed and jump down the road and across the street to satisfy a quick craving)
A fantastic spot for sandwiches. I was actually somewhat apprehensive at first.. I don't normally order deli sandwiches and I never order tuna sandwiches, I don't know how long it's been sitting there, but damn it was really good. Just like how I remembered it. Also I ate it 5 hours after I picked it up at the deli. I was actually goin to eat it the next day but I was curious and took a bite really late and night. I normally eat dinner pretty late every night anyway. I ended up eating almost the entire roll, I gave some to L.. who doesn't love a good tuna sandwich. Chicken salad had a lil too much mayo for me, but L enjoyed it. He loved his Reuben sandwich. Everything we've tried has been great. The lady was really nice too. We were really late coming in to pick up the food. Good prices, especially for the city, much cleaner than your typical deli. Come in if you're in the area!
