Perfect!

There is no one word that can adequately describe the choice polish cuisine, the immaculate facilities and the truly glorious service at this quaint Greenpoint deli, so I will have to make one up: SCRUMTRULESCENT! Marias Deli is simply scrumtrulescent! Tip: Ask for Jan, who is probably hiding in the back kitchen. Hes known to share a vodka shot with willing patrons on the weekends.

Best sandwich on this side of the East River

You haven't experienced Greenpoint until you've experienced the sandwiches at Maria's Deli.

My personal favorite "The Oracle".

Tiny deli chock full of character

arias Deli is a family-owned and operated sole proprietorship. Maria's had her doors open for over a quarter of a century and she continues to provide only the best homemade polish and american delicacies for the denizen of Greenpoint as well as foreigners visiting the neighborhood she doesnt discriminate. Her daily fresh selections of soups, chicken cutlet, pork chops, baked chicken legs, stuffed cabbage, cheese blintzes, polish kielbasa, bigos (sauerkrout with ham and kielbasa), fasolka (lima bean specialty soup), flaczki (beef tripe), various salads (don't shy away from the vegetable salad), and gargatuan sandwiches make everyone feel as if they were transported to a remote area of Poland for a traditional, delectable lunch. Grab a Polish beer to go with your meal and say "Dzienkuje" to Maria who always serves her customers with a smile.

• Pros: Inexpensive, Large portions, Friendly service
