A great little Deli that opened about 2 months ago. Anthony and Jack are extremely nice and hard working. They do a great job to make sure their customers are happy. They even have a military discount.
I ordered the Pastrami Melt which was fabulous. My wife ordered the deli Ultimate, normally comes cold but they were nice enough to warm it up for her. She loved it and couldn’t finish the entire sandwich.
The atmosphere isn’t much but it is a deli.
We will definitely be eating here more.

We stopped in for an afternoon sandwich at Island Deli on Big Pine Key and were so glad we did.
We were greeted by a kind guy behind the counter who took our order and prepared everything fresh. The bread was stellar — truly makes the sandwich — and my partner loved his Reuben.
It’s definitely a hidden gem. No frills, just really fresh, well-made sandwiches. Prices are a little higher, but that’s to be expected for freshly made food in the beautiful Keys.
There isn’t a ton of seating, so plan to take your meal to-go — but it’s absolutely worth the stop.

Great selection of sandwiches from A Cuban, Philly. French dip and traditional. Also have salads and even some ice cream. I had the Italian and it was massive and great. Nice staff with great service and small indoor as well as outdoor seating. We will be back! Thank you Island Deli!

Stopped here on our way from Key West to Islamorada when my daughter asked for a Cuban sandwich. We split 2 sandwiches amongst the four of us as it was meant to be a snack and the owners told us they were large, but turned around a bought a third as soon as we tasted it. IT WAS THAT GOOD! The best Cuban I’ve had in a while– i had a feeling it would be once I smelled that pork. 🙂 Even better is the service– the owner has a heart of gold. Please support this place!! We’d definitely be regulars if we lived here.

The Island Deli is a real neighborhood gem! They offer delicious breakfasts which are perfect for starting the day. Their Italian subs are packed with flavor, and the variety of cold cuts is impressive—fresh, generous, and high quality. Don’t miss the hearty homemade beef vegetable soup, which is rich and comforting, Subs are made to order, portions are satisfying, and the food consistently hits the spot. Whether you’re grabbing a quick breakfast or a classic deli sandwich for lunch, this place never disappoints. Highly recommended!

Had a great Italian sandwich there, easily the best in the keys. Small takeout shop with a counter right off rt#1. Excellent flavor that’s super satisfying with great quality ingredients. Big sandwich that you can’t stop eating, leaves you full & happy. Price is not inexpensive but is fair and worth it; they would have cut back on the size and quality to make it cheaper and I’m hoping they never decide to do that. If you’re hungry and are craving a memorably delicious and filling sub, then go here.

This place is under new management and it shows. Tony who works the restaurant has one of the best attitudes I have seen in awhile. The chef makes homemade meatballs for the sandwich and the bread is always fresh. The breakfast sandwich is second to none in most of the keys for one reason, they are using real thick cut bacon and not some pre cooked junk. Highly recommend this place. If you think you know it from previous owner you do not. The options for seating in this review are bogus. It only lets you choose one. It is more of a pickup shop and take with but they do have indoor/ outdoor seating. 4 inside and 6 outside.
