They have all your basic, essential products(chips, cleaning stuff, drinks and smoking products). This bodega has a large hot food selection. They have a grill and makes lots of sandwiches. The specialize in Spanish Sandwiches. They also have empanadas which I have had and recommend. This place is a little different, in a good way. They have all types of drinks from beers to teas to soda and yes more beer. Cheaper than CVS!!! MOM and DAD kinda feel.

This is a bodega on steroids. Rather than filling their space with lots of crap you can get anywhere, Roma focuses on Latin American fare and does a great job. The entire length of the store is set up for preparing food. In addition to a full deli(with great Latin-inspired sandwich combos), they have all kinds of hot prepared foods — roast chicken, pork, plantains, chicken cutlets, etc. If you aren’t adventurous enough for ethnic food, they make one of the best bacon, egg and cheese rolls I’ve had in Astoria. Beware the semi-long lines when the Rikers officers and contractor folk that inhabit Astoria Heights are grabbing breakfast or lunch. but Roma is definitely worth a stop for a good meal on the go.

Looking for a great place to grab breakfast, or lunch before you go to work? If you are in the neighborhood then you couldn’t ask for a better spot than Roma Deli. With their long hours Roma Deli serves authentic hispanic deli food as well as traditional American dishes. Be cautious of the long line if you find yourself there in the morning, but don’t despair the food is worth the wait. Dishes to keep in mind are their bacon egg and cheese, and chicken cutlet heroes.
