Master Critic Review

Reggie's Deli & Cafe 8.1
Echo Park
Family-run deli tucked inside a Citibank building serving traditional New York-style sandwiches, wraps, and breakfast items with notably fast service. The bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel and California wrap draw consistent praise, along with their house-made chicken soup and smoothies made with fresh ingredients.
Must-Try Dishes: Bacon Egg & Cheese on Bagel, California Wrap, Chicken Soup

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal - it's counter service in a bank lobby better suited for casual meetups or grabbing food before an activity. Consider for a low-pressure coffee date only.
Can I get food quickly during a work break? Perfect for this - notably fast service even during lunch rush, order ready in 5-7 minutes typically. Ideal for tight schedules.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes - family-run spot welcomes kids, has smoothies and simple sandwiches children enjoy, plus the novelty of eating in a bank. No high chairs but plenty of seating.
Do they deliver or have takeout? Takeout available and encouraged given the setting - most customers grab and go. Check delivery apps for availability.
Best For
Better for: Authentic NYC deli experience with personal family service, consistently fast execution, and honest pricing. Beats chain sandwich shops on quality and warmth, better than trendy cafes when you want no-fuss reliable food.
Skip if: You want ambiance or a sit-down meal experience - this is purely functional eating in a bank lobby. Skip if you need full restaurant atmosphere or weekend hours.
