Sindy’s Deli & Carryout

Sindy’s Deli & Carryout is a small little Korean-​owned deli, tucked away in an area with a hodge-​podge mix of random businesses. They offer breakfast sandwiches & platters, hot/​cold sandwiches, wraps, and desserts. I tried their Philly Cheese Steak, and upgraded to a combo (which cam with crinkle-​cut fries and a soda). The cheesesteak itself was okay, but pretty bland — there wasn’t much seasoning on the steak itself. There were a good amount of fried onions, though, which was nice. I did appreciate the crinkle-​cut fries, as they were freshly-​fried and crispy (these also needed your own personal dashings of the salt/​pepper). We went there during the lunch rush, and there were many people doing carry-​outs, but there are a few tables to sit and enjoy your food.

After a long rough week it is so refreshing to start off my Friday with a good breakfast complimented with great coffee. I wish more people knew about this place.

I’ve only been to Sindy’s once, but it was so good I had to post. I ordered the chicken tender wrap lunch combo ($ 7.99 for the wrap, fries, fountain drink). The wrap was much larger than expected, fresh and delicious. The fries were also fresh and just salty enough. Service was wonderful and quick. Only gripe is that they have Pepsi products for the fountain. I ordered takeout, but there are several tables and there were a number of people eating in during my visit. Place is certainly no frills, but its clean, tasty, and affordable.

SIndy’s is in a weird location — I definitely drove past it the first time I went. Its small and no frills, the prices are pretty cheap and they have a great breakfast. I loved my omelet, good home fries (very hard to find) and the pancakes were nice and fluffy too. I love in the area, but work elsewhere so I’ve only had it on a few special occasions when I’m home on a weekday. This makes me SAD! Howard County is seriously lacking good breakfast spots and this would be the perfect greasy spoon for a Saturday or Sunday breakfast, but alas they are only open on weekends for the Columbia corporate folks.

I’ve never had a meal I didn’t enjoy from Sindy’s! The food is always fresh and hot, and the staff is very polite and quick (although I would recommend calling ahead during lunch as they tend to get busy). They have several ‘value’ menu items where you can get a meal, side, and drink for about $ 7 which is incredible. Often several people from my office will order lunch together from Sindy’s and no one has been disappointed yet :)

Definitely a fan of Sindy’s! Anything I get here is always so good! Always fast and efficient (I do recommend calling ahead). Food is always hot, and the staff is always friendly. Best cheesesteak in Columbia I think, Yum! Both breakfast and lunch are so tasty! Home fries and a breakfast sandwich can’t go wrong with that. The pancakes are also so fluffy! Best Deli in Columbia my opinion! They also have good lunch combo’s served with a sandwich of choice and it comes with fries and a drink!!! So filling.

I’m not gonna lie. The way they chose to spell it ‘Sindy’ and not Cindy bothers the Hell outta me. Who is this Sindy character anyways? I’d like to meet her.
The food tastes excellent and my favorite sandwich right now is the italian cold cut even if they DO go a litttle skimp on the topping ESPECIALLY when you’re paying close to 9 dollars for a combo and 7 dollars for the sandwich alone (combo=fries/drink/sammy). You know they’re skimping on the topping when you realize how much longer it takes you to finish the fries than it does the actual sandwich) So, yes it’s a little pricey, but the ingredients are always served fresh and the sandwich is very quickly and neatly prepared. The fries are yum too. The resturant is very clean. As soon as I walk through the door somebody literally BOLTS to the register to ring me up… chill out. you’ll get my money just relax a second lol.
PS: 5 dollar minimum on credit card
Highly Recommended.

I just noticed on how many Korean owned Delis there are in Howard County. Like 10… Okay maybe not 10 but there are a good amount in a 10 mile radius.
Each of them have their signature entrees and slightly different foods that separates themselves from others.
Going to 3 or 4 deli’s recently, I decided to try this place out today before going to work.
I just came here an hour ago and had their Meat Lovers Platter which comes with potatoes, bacon, sausage, scrapple, buttered toast, ham, and 2 eggs, cooked to your liking. It sounds a lot right? Yes, it’s a lot. I’m a big guy and I can eat pounds of food in one sitting, but this was a lot and I actually got a little full from eating this platter. But then I also ordered their cheesesteak sub which comes with fries and a drink all for like 6 or 7 bucks??? Now they don’t give you as much meat compared to other places, but in this case, more meat doesn’t mean it’s better. In this case, less meat means balance of flavors partying in your mouth. Pause.
The fries were freshly cooked, probably why my food came out a little longer than expected (10 minutes?) but they were good with the right amount of salt. Not too salty and not too bland!
When I came in, I opened the door for some gentlemen that’s from the firehouse. There were 4 of them and then had 2 older ladies in front of them, and 1 younger lady in front of the older ladies. Pretty long line but it went fast and depending on what you order, you’ll get your food in just a couple minutes.
I love scrapple, the fact that it’s a hit or miss each time you bite into it. One bit would be delicious and the next might be the part you eat the livery and irony part. Scrapple originally came from Maryland too!
Not every deli, in fact most deli’s don’t have scrapple. This place does. And it does it right. The prices go well with the portions and the service is very friendly. Korean owned local joint.
Will I be back? Of course!

Good place to get breakfast and lunch.

We order from them all the time at work. Always good, quick and even drops off boxes of «thank you» desserts!
