Heritage Deli Review

Nestled on the bustling Jericho Turnpike in Smithtown, Heritage Deli has become a local favorite in just three years. Run by the dynamic duo of Celio and Fernando, this delicatessen is more than just a place to grab a sandwich; it’s a testament to the resilience, hard work, and passion that define small businesses on Long Island. Both owners bring over four decades of combined experience in the food industry, crafting a menu that delivers exceptional taste and value. With Celio’s mastery of deli classics and Fernando’s expertise in bagels and beyond, they’ve turned Heritage Deli into a haven for delicious, affordable food that reflects the rich deli traditions of New York.

Long Island delis have long been a cornerstone of the local culture. For decades, these establishments have served as meeting places and culinary landmarks, offering everything from towering sandwiches to hearty soups and, of course, the legendary “bacon egg and cheese on a roll salt pepper ketchup.” However, the deli business has faced significant challenges in recent years. Rising costs, the pandemic, and changing consumer habits have forced many to close their doors. Heritage Deli stands out as a beacon of hope amidst these challenges, thriving by sticking to what matters most: high-quality food, reasonable prices, and unmatched customer care.

Celio and Fernando’s story embodies this dedication. Celio, with 22 years of deli experience, has perfected the art of crafting sandwiches and sides that satisfy every palate. Meanwhile, Fernando brings 21 years of expertise in bagels and food preparation, ensuring every bite is as fresh and flavorful as it is memorable. Together, they’ve created a menu that caters to all tastes, whether you’re craving a hot chicken cutlet sandwich, a loaded burger, or a specialty wrap packed with fresh ingredients.

This article is the culmination of a year and a half of weekly visits, where every sandwich, soup, and side was sampled to provide a thorough review. From the savory pastrami of “The Long Islander” to the creative indulgence of “The Bull” burger, Heritage Deli delivers excellence with every bite. For locals and newcomers alike, this deli offers not just a meal but an experience—one rooted in tradition, flavor, and the welcoming spirit of Celio and Fernando. And we can’t forget to mention Evita, who is always there to greet you with a smile and is one of the most friendly delicatessen workers that I have ever come across. If you’re looking for the perfect example of why Long Island Delicatessens still matter, Heritage Deli is the place to start.

Our Favorite Three Specialty Heroes from Heritage Deli

The Italian

The Italian sandwich is easily one of my favorite choices on this menu, and for good reason. Packed with ham, capicola, salami, pepperoni, melted provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, oil, and vinegar on a fresh hero roll, every bite feels like a celebration of bold and vibrant flavors. The rich, savory meats—each with their unique spiced undertones—create a perfect balance when paired with the creamy melted provolone. The fresh crunch of lettuce, the juiciness of the tomato, and the slight tang of the onion add refreshing layers to the hearty fillings.

The oil and vinegar tie it all together, providing a tangy, slightly acidic finish that cuts through the richness of the meats and cheese, making the sandwich feel balanced and not overly heavy. The hero roll, soft on the inside with just the right amount of crust, holds all the flavors perfectly without overpowering them. It’s the kind of sandwich that leaves you craving another bite even after you’ve finished it. If you’re looking for a robust, flavorful, and satisfying meal, this Italian sandwich truly hits the mark. It feels like a trip to a classic deli in Italy, all in the palm of your hand!

The Long Islander

The Long Islander is the kind of sandwich that makes you reconsider ever paying outrageous prices for a “famous” New York City pastrami sandwich again. While those Manhattan institutions might charge upwards of $30 for their pastrami creations, the Long Islander delivers the same satisfaction—if not better—for just a fraction of the cost. At Heritage Deli, this sandwich is an unbeatable choice for pastrami lovers who want top-tier quality without breaking the bank.

Layered with tender, smoky pastrami, melted Swiss cheese, crisp coleslaw, and finished with a drizzle of tangy Russian dressing, all served on toasted bread, the Long Islander captures everything a great pastrami sandwich should be. The pastrami itself is flavorful and perfectly seasoned, with a melt-in-your-mouth texture that pairs flawlessly with the creamy Swiss and the refreshing crunch of the coleslaw. The toasted bread holds up beautifully, adding the ideal amount of crispness and warmth to every bite.

If there’s one spot we’d recommend to satisfy your craving for a pastrami sandwich, it’s right here at Heritage Deli. The Long Islander rivals those iconic New York deli options at a much more accessible price, all while delivering a sandwich that’s overflowing with flavor and personality. Whether you’re a die-hard pastrami fan or just looking for a new favorite, the Long Islander is a must-try and a perfect example of why Heritage Deli deserves recognition as a sandwich destination.

Where’s The Beef

“Where’s The Beef” is not just one of my favorite sandwiches; it’s easily my older son’s top pick as well. He never lets me skip it and always insists on ordering it whenever we’re here. This hero sandwich features grilled roast beef paired with melted mozzarella on perfectly toasted garlic bread, making it a hearty and indulgent meal. The roast beef is tender, juicy, and grilled to perfection, giving it a slightly smoky flavor that pairs beautifully with the creamy, gooey mozzarella cheese.

The garlic bread takes this sandwich to the next level, adding a rich, buttery crunch and just the right hint of garlic to complement the savory beef and cheese. Each bite feels like pure comfort, and it’s hard not to love the satisfying blend of flavors and textures. Whether it’s for lunch, dinner, or just a treat, “Where’s The Beef” has become a staple for us, and I can confidently say it’s one of the most irresistible options on the menu.

The Broadway Joe (Our 2nd Favorite)

It’s not just because I’m a Jets fan that this is one of my favorite sandwiches at Heritage Deli. They’ve also told me a few times that this is one of their most popular sandwiches, if not their most popular. I think they get kind of tired of me asking that question every time I go in there, but I can’t help it I’m a journalist. The Broadway Joe is a masterpiece for anyone who appreciates a perfectly crafted chicken cutlet sandwich. Heritage Deli starts with their signature fresh, piping-hot chicken cutlets, adding melted Swiss cheese and fresh tomato to balance the richness. This sandwich is simple yet elevated, with the creamy Swiss and juicy tomato complementing the crispiness of the cutlets beautifully. Every bite delivers that warm, freshly fried texture that makes it feel like it was made just for you—because it was! It’s a prime example of why Heritage Deli stands out in the chicken cutlet game.

It’s a burger that celebrates Long Island’s love for bold, creative flavors.

The Bull (Our 2nd Favorite)

You have to be from Smithtown—or at least have driven through it multiple times—to understand why this burger is called “The Bull.” As you’re leaving Smithtown from the east and heading west, you’ll pass the iconic Blue Bull statue at the corner of Route 25 and 25A. Additionally, both of Smithtown’s high school sports teams are called “The Bulls,” making this burger a tribute to local pride.

The Bull itself is a showstopper of a burger. Featuring a bacon cheeseburger topped with a perfectly cooked sunny-side-up egg, this burger is indulgence at its finest.

It feels like an upscale, portable version of the Caesar salad you might get at a high-end Italian restaurant. The chicken is always fresh, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, blending seamlessly with the creamy, tangy dressing and sharp parmesan. Wrapped snugly in your choice of a regular, whole wheat, or tomato wrap (the tomato wrap is a favorite for its subtle sweetness), it’s a lighter option compared to a big hero roll, but it still leaves you perfectly satisfied. It’s the kind of wrap you can enjoy on the go, offering all the freshness of a salad with the heartiness of a sandwich.

Christopher’s Wrap

The Christopher’s Wrap is a flavor explosion, featuring grilled chicken, fresh mozzarella, romaine lettuce, roasted red peppers, and a balsamic drizzle.
