Old Fashioned Italian Deli

We had the Italian beef with peppers and hot pastrami sandwiches on our first visit. Both were excellent! We tired the pizza and thought it was good too. The thing that captivated me about this place was the people working here were generally nice and good people. At one point, a blind couple came in to order and the person that was making the sandwiches came up to them talked them across any obstacles, explained the menu, and even helped them get drinks and walk them out the door. I thought that was a very nice thing to do! Can’t wait to try more sandwiches. Such a huge variety of sandwiches, should be have something for everyone.

Great Italian deli, many hot and cold sandwiches to choose from. I’ll keep this on my list of sandwich shops to visit.
The folks working are awesome, very engaging
Huge supporters of the military (and Marilyn Monroe)

I’ve come here a few times because it’s in my area. The décor is very strange but the people are friendly and the food is pretty good. I need to try a few more things but the bread is very good.
Try to bring cash because there was a .50 charge for using my credit card.

Amazingly tasty Hot Beef Sandwich! The pasta salad was good too. Don’t let the outside look scare you away!

Place is small with lots of character. Could use a facelift and a deep cleaning both inside and out but the food is amazing! You walk in and the Italian aroma fills the air. They have tons of options too! You can also buy meat by the pound to take home. I highly recommend the pizza very delish and will be returning in the future.

A taste of exquisite Italian deli, with a patriotic American flare. Great little joint to get some «authentic» deli in your belly. I’ll be coming back for sure!

Love this place. Lunch is always great. Ton’s of sandwiches and lots of great meats. It’s been in Littleton for 30 years. The owners are very friendly and always glad to see you. I always recommend this play to friends and family.

Wow! A real New York deli in Colorado. Being from the east coast this is amazing. The God Father sub is crazy good. No wonder why they have been serving up great food for 30 years. Nice work guys.

Hello, my name is Jenn B. and I love bread and I love sandwiches. It’s been hard the past month and half while I have been working on cutting out carbohydrates from my diet (easier than I thought). On a recent Saturday I was willing to splurge on a sandwich and was looking for a great one. It’s not often I end up in Littleton however some car maintenance brought us to the neighborhood and made me think of the Old Fashioned Italian Deli that I’ve had bookmarked for some time.
I never went inside, so my opinion is strictly based on the sandwich only. The bread is the consistency of a bagel, it was tough and doughy and not at all what I was looking for when ordering a sandwich. All the ingredients sounded good but what I got was three inches of meat and cheese between two slices of doughy bread. More is not always better. At some point it becomes a salty disaster which is exactly what I got.
The only good thing I can say is that the sides of pasta salad were above average. The ratio of vinegar and oil was perfect and the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente (yum).
For a place that offers a full page of sandwich options I was hoping for more. Extremely disappointed I wasted my carbs on a bad sandwich.

I discovered this place when I first here (5 years) and recently went back to get an Italian hoagie sandwich. I have to say the cold cuts are always perfectly cut and the bread certainly ties it all together. This isn’t one of your pretentious sandwich places as it is «good old fashioned» hoagie sandwiches (most commonly started by many Italian families back east). The prep time could take a little while so don’t be in a rush if you go. If you are from New Jersey or New York, you will even appreciate this place more!

Best sandwiches around! Their meats, cheeses, everything tastes excellent. Their pizzas are awesome too. I really dig the vibe and atmosphere in the deli, always have good tunes going as well.

It’s disguised as a mom and pop shop but they serve lots of different meats and cheeses on the calzones and pizzas. They make their own bread and if you order pizza by the slice– you get large portions. Their corned beef is awesome!

This is the perfect hole in the wall deli! I read through the reviews and the negative ones are complete jokes. I’ve been coming here for years. Parking is never a problem, the place is always clean and hospitable. This is a place you would come to just hang out and put your feet up. The pizza is the best in the area. Big slices. The sandwiches are amazing and the bread is homemade. The owners are super nice and their mom’s homemade cheese cake is to die for! Damn! Now I’m hungry!

Why did it take me so long to come here??? You feel like you are in a Sopranos episode that was hijacked by Marilyn Monroe, you will understand when you go. This place is straight up old school. Big portions of good food are what you get whether it be a giant tasty sandwich or huge plate of pasta. I have not had their pizza yet but it looks good too as do their calzones. The place is pretty unassuming in what looks to be a half deserted strip mall but don’t let the outside keep you from coming in, the sandwiches I have had are as good as you would get in a deli in Chicago or New York. If you find yourself in Littleton around lunchtime do yourself a favor and come here. I’m a fan just wish I lived closer!

Moved from CT/​MA and was so very pleased to find this gem. Great sandwiches and atmosphere.
Lots of character, just like home.

The corned beef and pastrami sandwiches are excellent! My daughter loved the pizza by the slice. Are real Jen of a deli!

I love this place! They use traditional hoagie rolls and fill them to the gills with meat, cheese and veggies, and douse them in dressing. If you grew up back east and have been having a hard time finding that old-​school traditional Jersey style «hoagie,» then this is the place for you!
Their pizzas are awesome as well!

Parking is tough due to the restaurant in the same strip mall, but the hassle is worth the wait. Had the hot pastrami today and it did not disappoint! The place lives up to it’s name as ‘Old Fashioned’. Sandwich board on the back wall behind the long counter describes all the yummy options. A Sinatra song or something similar playing in the back ground along with the old school motif makes you feel as you have gone back in time.
Don’t pass this place up if you are craving a real deli experience. Do yourself a favor and skip the $ 5 foot long.

This place is true to its name. You could expect to see Michael Corleone come out of the back to put a hit on a corrupt police captain. While the service isn’t fast food quick, the quality isn’t fast food crappy.
I had the Capo di Capo and it was tops in my estimation. I had to go and it was still hot and tasty upon my arrival at my office 5 miles away. If you can eat in, I’m sure it adds to the overall quality.
Next time I’ll buy a slice and see how they are with their pies.
They make a sandwich you can’t refuse.

Great family owned deli. Everything is made fresh daily including the bread. Large selection of sandwiches, salads, pizzas, calzones, and much more. True a family oriented business. I will most definitely add to my must visit list of restaurants when I go home for a visit.
