The problem with The Celery Stalk isn't the food, its the owner. He is the rudest proprietor i have ever encountered and i will never step foot in that place again. I am stunned by the way he treats people. Unfriendly and obnoxiously abrupt. There are plenty of other places to spend my money. He won't see another penny.
Review Source:Went here today for lunch and had a very pleasant experience.wife and I both had the 1/2 sandwich and cup of soup most yelpers recommend. i had a half bologna(very fresh) and the chicken and rice soup. wife had the tuna salad and the chicken and rice. soup was out of this world good.... for $5 this is a steal! its a little awkward ordering..especially for first timers....but we got the knack of it pretty quickly. owner/cash register man must have been on good behavior today. said "thank you" and wished me a good day. nice enough spot....you won't want to linger long....but for a quick and delicious lunch..at very decent prices....its a winner.
Review Source:Not one of those places you will have the meal of your life, but for a cheap and tasty lunch I will recommend this place. Â The $5 special for half a sandwich and soup is a steal, it would be tough to make a meal for that cost. Â The sandwiches are handmade in the back and you can tell the soup is fresh. Â I ordered a pastrami on rye and a chicken and rice. Â I have been told the chicken and rice soup is their best and I would recommend that to anybody, everything has good flavor, nothing drowns out the mediocrity of most soups.
Review Source:My review is based on their grinders only.
I had a large Italian grinder and was really disappointed. The quality of the meat lead me to believe that this is just generic pre-sliced Sysco meat that comes in a bag. The bread was nothing special. All in all this was the same grinder you'd get at your average street corner pizzeria.
Go to Frigo's for a REAL Italian grinder.
This is one of my favorite deli's EVER. The food quality is excellent. The help is fast and with one notable exception always friendly. The soup Nazi comparisons are apt, but honestly, only if you make a point of complaining. (He's always been nice to me, but I make a point to be prepared for my transaction, and say please and thank you.)
The veggie sub is without a doubt the BEST veggie sub I have ever had in my life. Mushrooms, peppers, pickles, cukes, lettuce, tomato, everything.... The chocolate chip cookies are second only to my girlfriends cookies. (This is saying a lot, honestly.) While I have never had meat there, the omnivores I know that have eaten her corroborate the other reviews here.
Next time I am going to have to try the egg salad...
They do a lot of take out, and you can call ahead.
Oh. CASH ONLY. keep that in mind before you go to pay (There are signs up all over, and an ATM in the corner.) And they are only open Monday through Friday until 5.
If I were rating solely on the food, this would probably inch up to 5 stars. Â The egg salad is TO DIE FOR. Â It's creamy, well seasoned with herbs, and fresh. Â As others have mentioned, this is a really basic place with picnic tables for seating, and is cash only. Â The owner typically mans the cash register and unfortunately this is the reason I deducted a star. Â He is seriously curt, and comparisons to the Soup Nazi are apt. Â He makes me so nervous I haven't been in there in awhile. Â So, fellow timid Yelpers, approach the register with cash in hand and your wits about you!
Review Source:This place is delicious and cheap.
I got a rare roast beef sandwich on a watercress roll and my wife got a ham and cheese. The meat is sliced to order so you know it is fresh, not to mention they pile it on. We also shared a bowl of bean and ham soup that was hearty, flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The place was pretty packed, and it's obvious from the no frills vibe that people come here for the food. I went around 1:30 on a Thursday and there was maybe 2 tables open in the whole place. Maybe the locals are trying to keep it a secret and that is why there is only 1 review. For the quality and freshness of ingredients, not to mention the prices this place is definitely worth checking out.
Another thing worth mentioning is they only take cash so bring some or prepare to pay $2 to use the ATM inside the place. That being said my wife and I ate for $12.37 so it doesn't take much for you to leave happy. My only complaint about the place is they are only open Mon-Fri 9am-4pm so it can be hard for people with full time work to check the place out. So if you call in sick, or get a holiday off give this place a shot you won't be disappointed.
