The Bodega Deli

Lots of choice. Delicious flavor. Nice interior space. Bar, tables. Wonderful Columbian Burger and Cuban Sandwich.

My hubby and I stopped in after looking up quick lunch spots in the area. We ordered two beef bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches and a chicken empanada. Our sandwiches were fresh, hot, and delicious. I appreciated that they were on Kaiser rolls and not sandwich bread. I ate half of the empanada and I don't really like chicken. If you're looking for a no frills, quick and easy sandwich shop, I'd give this place a try.

I paid for three sandwiches (cuban, egg bacon and cheese& chopped cheese) They didn't even toast the bread. The chopped cheese did not have seasoning. The Cuban sandwich didn't even have pickles or seasonings. I was expecting more because the other Reviews I guess I got The service was not the best as it said it was, lazy workers.

If you're looking for a good breakfast sandwich, this is the spot for you. Their NY-style "baconeggandcheese" (that's one word; don't ask me, I don't make the rules) or sausage egg and cheese are available on a bagel or a Kaiser roll. They definitely take me back to the bodegas of NYC, apt per this joint's name. The Hispanic woman behind the counter is also incredibly kind and thoughtful - her service is much appreciated!

Been going here for years shout out the owner she's an amazing and super kind individual and buisness is always great

I can't think of a worse first time experience. I walk in excited to try a new and local place. There is one customer eating at one table and children of an employee at another. There are no other customers so I walk up to the cashier and order two sandwiches and an empanada to go. I'm given my receipt with my order number. I watch as one person who ordered before me gets their order then another person who called their order in gets their order. No big deal. I start to wait. A couple walks in, orders empanadas, receives their empanadas and walks out. At this point it had been, it had been 15 minutes with ZERO customers in the place. Literally just me standing there. Another person walks in, asks me if I'm in line, I say nope I'm just waiting on my order that's taking a while. He proceeds to stand and wait for someone to take his order. I still wait and I watch an employee from the kitchen leave, go next door, and come back with food. I'm still waiting. The employee behind the register is just laughing and talking with his employees all while I'm waiting, plus another person waiting to order! The entire time I was in his line of sight. The employee saw me waiting and never asked me what my order was or if he could help me. Finally, I walk up to the register with my ticket and he asks what's your order number? I tell him my order number and he remarks oh it's been up here the whole time! I was pretty ticked off at this point. I didn't have earbuds in, I watched him call multiple order numbers but for whatever reason he decided not to call mine so I know he never called my order number. He just sat there and watched me wait plus another customer who was waiting to order. Again, there were no other customers in the place! Literally me and another customer waiting to be helped while this employee did nothing. I let him know it was my first time there and it is definitely my last. Pay attention to your customers!

I really love this place!! It's an Albemarle rd treasure that can easily go uncovered if you don't pay attention. I stumbled upon it a little over a year ago when I was looking for sandwich shops and they had just done their grand opening. I adore their breakfast bagels, and they are so affordable at only $5. The only other items I've tried are the Cuban sandwich, which was delectable and one of the few authentic Cubans that you can get around Charlotte. There is a perfect balance of flavors, and no flavor overtakes the other. The tres leches is fantastic also, and there is a very large helping. Check this place out! Coming back for the Philly and burger next time.

The service and food here is always amazing. I tell everyone I know about this place because I just happened to stumble across it one day and now I frequent for their breakfast sandwiches!! The people who work here are so genuine and kind. You can tell it's family owned and operated because everyone just treats you like family. I typically call ahead and swing by to pick it up so it's ready right away :) 10/10 Would recommend.

The service was very nice and quick but the cuban sandwich unfortunately didn't have much flavor

Walked in this place the other day to eat with my wife. My wife and I decided to eat in the restaurant/store. As we are eating the big/heavy set Hispanic dude with the fade (probably owner) that works in the kitchen, came out and was just leaning against the counter. After my wife and I finished eating we quickly left the store. She then told me after we left that the guy kept staring at her, which made her feel uncomfortable. I did notice my wife looking uncomfortable as we ate but I did not question it at the time.I don't know what type of business they trying to run here but I wont be spending my money here again. I mean I get why he was starring, my wife is beautiful, but I don't appreciate the lack of respect he has towards the customers. Everyone has the right to look, just don't make things obvious to the point it becomes disrespectful because you might catch the right one, one day.
