V & S Italian Deli 2621 North Federal Highway, Boca Raton, FL 33431

"A place so great I can’t drive past it when I’m in the area, it’s a guaranteed stop. Italian combo on their seeded Italian crispy bread is the best sandwich south of New York itself (and even then…)! Been going here for almost twenty years and it’s great to see the same faces, this is a tightly run family business that runs like a well oiled machine. If you order takeout online or over the phone, be prepared to call 45-60 minutes in advance. Otherwise, walk ins are pretty simple. Always worth the wait, literally at any cost. They also have a wide array of hot foods and can also cater events. Vinny and Sal started something beautiful in 1985 and we’re so glad to see it part of the Boca cuisine all these years later."

"Patronized this place for very first time today as I was craving a pastrami sand. Absolutely….hands down….the best pastrami I have ever had down here. Waited a bit (as you usually will on a Sunday). Worth the wait!!! I also had a Chef Salad and added chicken salad and fresh Mozzarella. Soooooo reasonable! I thought the price was a mistake at first. Will be back very soon.."

"This is the real deal if you like Italian Hero Subs. They also have take away meals, salads, soup, and deserts. I had the Chicken Fontina with lightly coated fried chicken cutlets not greasy at all, and the cheese was lightly placed on providing my taste buds with an amazing flavor. My brother in-law had Chicken Cutlet Florentine equally good. These were both hot subs. My sister had a cold Roast Beef sub. All three were plentiful and delicious we savored each bite! If I lived near this place I would definitely eat here once or twice a week...yes it was that good! The only downside is only having three small tables outside. So best to plan ahead for take away orders."

"This deli has it all: hot subs, cold subs, desserts, chilled prepared foods, and side dishes. It’s a classic feeling spot with handwritten special signs and a good touch of character. I tried their V&S Special sub and it was excellent. The meat was flavorful and all the toppings played well together. The bread was fresh and the sub was huge. They have a lot of topping options and customization routes such as different bread types, different cheeses, and a slew of preset sandwich options. My husband tried one of their hot subs and said it was also good. He got a black and white cookie which was perfectly cakey. There are a few outdoor two-top tables but this seems to be mainly a takeout spot. It’s a classic deli with so many things to offer."
