Plaza Deli

this place is now closed!!! gonzo

Fat G. working the Government Center area, hopefully until tomorrow. It’s soo far away…
Anyways, because of the rain, and the inclination to try a new place, I went to Plaza Deli, which was across from the Suffolk County Courthouse.
They have outdoor seating, but also have tables on the left side when you enter. On the right is another section that you can order dishes and such, and in the middle is where you can get sandwiches and quick food.
I ordered a roast beef on a sub, and it was prepared fairly quickly. It was really bloody though — in fact there was more blood on my bread soaked though than mayo.
There was a slight line, and cleanliness isn’t the tops either, but it’s convenient.
Also, the bathroom is located in another building.

I love this place. The honey mustard chicken is to die for. I love being able to get a real meal instead of a sandwich. The meatloaf looks amaning and i cant wait to try it.

Just a little above average…
The employees are funny and nice, so that’s cool.
Ordered a bacon cheeseburger and fries hoping to kill a rockin hangover. Took about 10 – 15 mins to make (groan) and when I got back to my desk saw that they didn’t even put the bacon on. (DOUBLE GROAN!)
The thing was the size of my fist, too… wth? I ordered a large. Or at least I paid for a large…
The fries were pretty normal/​unimpressive. Throw some salt on em and dip em in ketchup and you can enjoy em.
Another time I got an italian sub and that was much more satisfying… but you can’t mess that up, right?
I dunno… there are better options in the area. TRUST!

Love, Love, Love them. Jerry is awesome. I order lunches for the firm and in a pinch they always have my back. No matter the size of the order and last minute, They work it out. They are expanding the menu and are serving pizza now. I had some and it was good. They hired a new VP of Marketing (Shannon Sweeney) Awe work on the menu and putting them out there. Love her too. They will give the competion a run for their money.

Changed my mind… They don’t deserve two stars. Plaza Deli is at least a 3 star deli. Their food is good enough, but the rest of the stuff below still stands.

The food, price, and staff are absolutely AMAZING! I love eating there whenever I’m in the city. I always leave feeling full and happy! It is definitely the best place to eat! LOVE IT!

I really want to give this place higher stars but I just can’t do it. The food is decent. I really like the BLT or the Tom/​Moz/​Basil sandwich but the chicken caesar salad was pretty bad. It was just never satisfying.
The reason it only gets 3 stars is that it is kind of expensive for the food it is. $ 9 for a sandwich and soda is expensive. Also the service is hit or miss. It can take a while to get your meal and one of the women who works the cash register is really slow. The other woman is able to get through her customers really fast but if you get stuck with the other woman it can take forever.

Rainy day in Boston. Went to order Delivery from these guys through seamlessweb. The delivery site had their delivery min incorrect but they delivered my breakfast anyway. GREAT WORK PLAZA DELI

They must think they have a good system here since they have not changed things in the years I have periodically gone here. However, things are flawed, very flawed. Today has pretty much reinforced why I don’t go here often.
I went during the lunch rush. So there was a decent line. There is little organization to keep the line moving from being ordered, carefully watching your order (and answer possible questions about it), to paying. They tell you to move along but they are constantly asking you questions. For example, they ran of our wheat today so they had to ask several people about which bread they would prefer instead. Luckily, I ordered my sandwich on a roll.
So I get shuffled on to pay. Big mistake. I should have stood my ground and watched the woman make the sandwich. There was a breakdown in the ordering process since a guy took the order, told it to the woman, who was making like 5 other sandwiches at the same time. So, understandable, she messes up my order. I did not order anything complicated. Nope… salami, provolone cheese, lettuce, oil and vinegar.
Once I got back to my office I realized that my sandwich was missing the oil and vinegar. That is the blue that ties the sandwich together!
They need to either take the order and make it themselves or write out orders to get things done correctly when passing it off to someone else. Marking the sandwich would also be helpful since the 2 women at the register actually hand out the sandwiches so they are just yelling out what the woman who makes the sandwiches say. My sandwich was almost given to a man who ordered ham on white. Luckily they realized a bread sandwich felt different than a roll sandwich.
Good luck to the people who give this place a try. Keep an eye on your sandwich!

I was 10 minutes early for jury duty, so I stopped here to get a bagel. I guess everyone else in there was a regular, because the servers knew what people wanted before they even ordered. However, since I wasn’t a regular, I was practically ignored, which I thought was very rude.
I ordered a toasted cinnamon raisin bagel with butter, and instead got a burnt cinnamon raisin bagel with enough cream cheese for three. I like supporting independently owned places, but Plaza Deli left me wishing that I’d found a Dunkin Donuts.

Considering I’ve worked upstairs from this place for a while, you figure I would at least get a smile once and a while. I understand sometimes people have bad days, but I didn’t know it was possible to be grumpy Monday thru Friday. I also particularly enjoy how the price for a sandwich will be substantially different the very next day; to this day, I have no idea how they price things out. Regardless, the food itself is more of a hit than a miss, pretty good if you need something quick.
