Bayside Delicatessen

Disgusting.  I just returned with a tuna sandwich that I had eaten half of before I stopped dead, went to the kitchen window and had my fear confirmed - there was a quarter sized petri dish-like dark green mold on one end of it.  I returned to get my money back, which they gladly gave me.  But made an excuse that the girl who made my sandwich is supposed to check the bread before she uses it.  CHECK for mold?  Either the bread's expired or it's not.  And this bread was clearly 7-10 days past expiration to get that kind of growth on it.  I asked her if they check their expiration dates and she didn't respond.  I'm so nauseas right now I want to throw up.  My husband's hot sandwich was ice cold and my daughter's BLT was a mess with all the bacon dumped on one side.  We had stopped coming here about a year ago even though it's the closest deli to our house (1/4 mile) because the sandwiches were just never that good.  We now go to either Swan Deli or TJ's Hero Shop.  All I can say is, we would not recommend this place to anyone but the Board of Health.  Gross!  Really.  Petri dish gross.

The people, the coffee, the egg sandwiches:) the bagels, the atmosphere (aka, the "vibe," or "scene") & the pricesnice:)) They are the BEST at Bayside. Always sad to have to leave the area knowing I can't get my Bayside Delicatessen fix!! Can you have crushes on people just cause of the food they serve?? :))

Great sandwich for the price, staff was friendly. Can't really ask for anything more.
