Napoleon Deli

A friend who grew up in Midwest City often talked about Napoleon Deli, but who wants to drive there from downtown OKC sandwich. Then one of our chefs mentioned they were one of the few places that knew how to use mortadella properly. Funny enough, I found myself nearby a couple weeks later and decided to give it a try. From perusing the menu on their website, I had intended to order the Country French with mortadella, ham and cheese. When I went in, I found they also have an Italian that adds salami and mild peperoncini so I orders a large. Oh my gosh, it's good. I'm not going to say it's the best sandwich I've ever had, but it's really darned good. I loved the bread; smooth browned top with a good flavor and nice chewiness. I stopped by again a few days later and got two Italians (one for me and one for a friend) and a half Country French (also pretty great). The next Italian I get, I may see if they can hold the mayo and Napoleon sauce, and add a little oil and vinegar just to vary things up a bit. Don't make my mistake and thing it's not worth the drive. It very definitely is.

So I decided to stop on a recommendation of a friend. I looked over their menu they have listed here on Yelp and decided the prices were pretty decent. When I got there and walked in one of the ladies said she would be right there and she was. After looking at the menu inside the sandwich was 3.50 higher than listed on their menu here. I ordered the Italian sub with everything. It only took a few minutes and another lady called my name and put the sandwich on the counter. No thank you or your welcome when I said thank you. When I got home and opened it up it was a good size but the lettuce was old, soggy and browning in some areas. I found a piece or two of onion and a couple of pickle slices and tomato. Pretty scarce with the meat as well. There was so much sauce on it tht it was dripping everywhere. The bread was decent. Personally I won't be back. Not what I was expecting especially after reading a few reviews.

I don't know what the employees get such a bad rap. Just left there everyone was polite and as usual the sandwich was still the best in the state. Highly recommend.

The overall taste of the sandwiches is pretty good, but it is very expensive for the amount that you receive. The meat was scarce and did not even create a layer that covered more than 75% of the bread face. The lettuce and tomatoes were very light. The toppings did not go to the end of the sandwich bread which leaves you mostly eating very expensive bread rather than a sandwich. The staff was not overly welcoming or friendly and acted annoyed when asked to replace the syrup for the soft drinks. I left thinking "I should have gone to Jersey Mike's".

The bread is the only reason. This is double meat, extra sauce. Used to be good. If you have to raise prices to put the right amount of meat in there, this is the time. You can call it a Biden.

Love to support local businesses so tried out Napoleon for lunch. It's very clean but seemed to do more carryout business than dine in. The sandwiches were bland, bread was tough, very little meat on the sandwiches. Hate to say it, but Subway is a better offering. They did have a couple of hot entrees so if we go back it would be to try a hot entrees.

Love Napoleons! The Emperor sandwich is my favorite. Everything they make is fresh and just absolutely amazing! Keep up the great service and quality!

The sandwiches have gotten consistently worse and more expensive over the years. My sandwich today was especially disappointing: the bread was bordering stale, the meat was thin and the dressing was light. The service was not memorable, but it was good - the sandwich came out fast and the cashier was pleasant and didn't pressure me into tipping (a rarity, these days). But the ambience was boring and generic: If you ignore the sign saying "Napoleon" and the accompanying poster of the little general (both of which feel out of place in the otherwise "bland Christian), you might think you were in a particularly cheap dollar store - the chairs and tables are low quality plastic, the walls are mostly white with various Bible quotes strewn about, and the unfinished ceiling and exposed duct work give the impression that you're in a large shed. I can sadly no longer recommend this place which was one my favorite Midwest City eatery.

Sandwiches are great. Customer service is awful. The dressing they put on their sandwiches is the best part. Don't expect a smile or friendly greeting when coming in though.

Wear gloves when handling customers food Every sandwhich was made with gloveless hands wont be returning
