I’m calling this one Scenes From 3G’s because, in the end, I didn’t actually eat here.
I sat down at a table with ten people. I ordered food. I waited. And then I didn’t eat.
3G’s Gourmet Deli is one of those South Florida Jewish delis with a vast, boilerplate menu and a loyal, mostly elderly clientele. If this were a place that actually cooked most of what it serves, this review would read very differently. But it doesn’t — and it’s not trying to hide that fact.
This is a deli built almost entirely on commercial sourcing, primarily from Carnegie, a brand licensed to an Upstate New York–area deli manufacturer (Old World Provisions) whose products dominate Jewish delis, bagel joints, and luncheonettes across South Florida. Pastrami. Corned beef. Chicken soup. Matzo ball soup. Cheesecake. Blintzes. Mustards. Condiments. It’s all there, and it’s all Carnegie.
Many delis use Carnegie products. 3G’s simply commits to the bit.
A closer look at the deli case reveals Sy Ginsberg / EW Grobbel provisions as well — most of them removed from cryovac packaging, just enough to give the impression that something happened between factory and plate. It didn’t.
Here’s what I ordered: a BLT on toasted wheat. The rye — the only thing I actually tasted, along with the pickles — is the familiar “let’s toast it because it’s naturally mushy” variety.
We arrived at 5:30 PM. It took about 15 minutes for the group to order. My sandwich arrived roughly 40 minutes later.
It was cold. Not lukewarm. Not cooling. Cold toast. Cold bacon.
I flagged the waitress and told her the sandwich was cold. She replied, calmly and without irony, that it’s always cold.
That ended the experiment.
I had it taken back, declined to order anything else, said goodbye to the rest of the table, and left. I don’t believe in suffering in silence, and I wasn’t going to wait another 40 minutes for a hamburger just to confirm what was already obvious.
The photos tell the story better than words ever could. This is not a kitchen expressing craft. It’s a showroom of industrial consistency — a place where the supply chain is the cuisine.
And for what it’s worth, the restaurant was absolutely slammed when I walked out at 6:30 PM, leaving nine other people behind. So no, none of this criticism actually matters. The people who go here love it. If you enjoy commercially produced Jewish deli food, sourced from a small handful of major suppliers and delivered with total predictability, you’ll probably be very happy here.
I wasn’t.
I went out for sushi.

Came a second time and I have to say – they deserve a star. The service was better this time and the wait wasn’t so long. Actually, the manager was sweet and kept coming over to ensure we had everything in order. The food was good! We ordered the same thing from last time because its not something we get in the west coast, corned beef sandos with coleslaw and matzo ball soup. We also got beer battered onion rings which were new on the menu – came out hot and fresh, would recommend

Visiting during dinner can be a hit-or-miss, especially if you’re not prepared for a wait. We arrived as a party of four and experienced a 25-30 minute wait for a table, which was surprising given that many seats were open. It seemed like we had a new server who took a while to take our order. I noticed that a table seated after us received their pickles and bread right away, while we had to wait quite a bit longer for ours. The ambiance was that of a typical deli!
Additionally, the busboys appeared quite eager to assist that particular waitress, which might explain the faster service they received—she likely tips them well to help manage her tables (just a tip for the servers). Unfortunately, our food took longer than expected to arrive, and although the sandwiches were tasty, the fries were served cold.
On a positive note, the corned beef was delicious and Matzo ball soup good! However, the slow service and the cold fries made for a disappointing experience overall. I’d rate 3Gs at a solid 3.5/5. Here’s hoping for improvement on my next visit!

I know the local elders enjoy it here, but the staff is out of control.
Came in around 4pm to an almost empty restaurant. Told them we were in a rush. They refused to seat my mother until I came in from the car.
After sitting down, we were completely ignored. Asked the host to get our server, he acted like we didn’t exist. When the server finally came over, she started yelling at us.
Food came out fast. Everything else was unacceptable. Rude, hostile staff.

Went to dinner here last night and the place was packed. Shoutout to Estelle, the hostess, as people were yelling and behaving poorly. She was so composed, kind and patient – I don’t think I would have handled the chaos as well as she did. Once she got us seated we had a delicious meal as always. Love 3G’s… it never disappoints. Thanks to all the staff but especially Estelle … people need to remember kindness and patience …. Especially in Florida at the height of the season.

The sandwiches were good – sizeable for the price, good quality, and fresh, tasty rye bread. Would eat here again in a heartbeat.
As many have noted: the service here is excellent, better than any other dine-in delicatessen I’ve experienced.

The very last thing this deli needs is another review on the food. So I am not writing this review for potential diners. I am writing it with the hope that management will read it and take it to heart.
I ate there today. I have been eating here regularly during the winter months for the last 10 years. I have eaten here 50-75 time. I love it here, but some things must be said.
The pea soup is lousy. It’s a lumpy mess of corn starch. It is the only thing either myself or my wife have ever sent back to the kitchen. Otherwise, we are always well fed with quality food, and well served by both the wait staff and the bussers.
Besides sending back a bowl of soup today, I witnessed something that should NEVER happen in a restaurant, no matter who your clientele is, how old they are or how busy you are. You CANNOT have a hostess who screams or talks rudely to your guests. It was disturbing. She walked around with a scowl on her face, and spoke with disgust on her tongue. I don’t care if she owns the place, it is unacceptable behavior. It was cold today… there was the usual lineup, and like myself many of the guests are hard of hearing. PATIENCE! We all want to be seated, and she could care less whether we were or weren’t.
Lastly, you have a great and successful restaurant. You have to give something back. The carpets are disgusting. The bathrooms are tired. The wood on the walls is marked and scarred. The place needs a face-lift. It needs it badly. Not a single thing has been done during the 10 years I have been loyal to you.
10 years ago it would have been 5 stars for all categories. Now I can say that the place is tired and worn… No bad words about the food. No bad words about the service. Just get rid of the miserable hostess… clean the place up. Fix up the hostess counter so it won’t be as congested, and treat ALL of your clients politely.
I hope this doesn’t fall on deaf ears.
And thank you for not serving bottomless soft drinks. There are many people I know that won’t eat here because of that. If you did and they did, the lineups would be worse!

New York old fashion deli that is always busy. The only problem when you go there for breakfast is it looks like an assisted living facility. A very old crowd that must live in King’s Point or the other senior developments. They have a very large and diverse menu.
I tried the Spanish Omelet, 4 eggs with Fresh Salsa, mushrooms, grilled onions, pep-pers, black olives and cheddar cheese. Choice of bagel or toast. Couldn’t finish it.
My wife ordered the avocado toast, toast or bagel topped with avocado and tomato
Both comes a choice of a side, home fries, French fries, potato pancake, grits, oatmeal, or tomato

Took my son in law to 3G’s as I used to come here all the time with my mom when she lived on Atlantic and Jog . We came from Tampa to take his daughter back home for winter break as she was in college. He absolutely raved about the food and I did too ! It felt like old times ! The waitress was wonderful and all the bread , pickles and food they gave us was terrific ! Wish they were in Tampa because we have no New York delis like this!

Went here on a trip to Florida with my grandparents. Overall great experience. Only complaint is that portion are triple what is necessary (and I’m a good eater). However, their corned beef was outstanding. I’ve had many great memories in this place.
