I have been visiting Chompie's for several years and their meals are consistent, abundant, and exceptional.

• Pros: HUGE variety
• Cons: Hard to park sometimes

Nostalgic bread

by timerider

I live in Prescott,AZ for now and all I know of Chompies is their bread.

I used to eat Miltons but not any more! I can't get enough of the Jewish rye and the multigrain! Swiss cheese, pastrami or even chicken with mustard on Jewish rye takes me back to my childhood in Philly around the 50's! Love those seeds!

Anyway, "It's Da Best"!!

Amazing deli, Especially recommend the pastrami

by NateBenj

So many great options it's hard to order because they are all so good. The service is great, but the food is what makes this deli a great place. The deli sandwiches have the meat piled high like you get at the Carnegie in NYC and leave you full and satisfied. The western sliders are also one of my favorites.

• Pros: Great Food
• Cons: Price

Wonderful breads. Great pastrami, brisket, corned beef, etc.

by szaman

The staff is friendly and great and, boy, do these guys really know their sandwiches!! I think they bake the bread that they use for the sandwiches because the rye tasted like it was straight out of the oven. It was absolutely delicious. I had the Brooklyner which is a triple decker sandwich with Pastrami, Brisket and Corned Beef and I went back like 4 nights in a row because I got addicted. Its humongous so be forewarned. These guys definitely don't skimp you on portions! I'm an observant Muslim and I broke my Ramadan fasts in the evenings at this place. We all got a kick out of a religious Muslim breaking his Ramadan fasts at a Jewish deli :) Peace in the Middle East right here at Chompie's! Seriously though, you will certainly LOVE this place.

• Pros: Staff is friendly and food is delicious!
• Cons: Gets super busy at lunch and evenings which can cause waits.

Pick out a baker's dozen of some of the best New York-style bagels in town.

In Short
Originally a bagel bakery and small-scale deli, this huge kosher-style operation now offers three squares a day in giant-size portions. Breakfast lovers go ga-ga for the omelettes, served with home fries and a freshly baked bagel, while lunch and dinner diners are equally happy with mile-high deli sandwiches stacked with corned beef, pastrami, or brisket (or any one of a zillion combinations) on fresh breads such as challah and marble rye.

This bagel-bakery is a must when craving a schmear of the Big Apple.

In Short
All locations offer the same menu, but to get that over-the-top sense of food, food and more food, like a traditional N.Y. deli, visit the Shea or Greenway locations, where the bakery display cases are jammed with whole cakes, cookies, muffins, danish, rugelach, Napoleons and eclairs. Besides the usual Jewish deli specialties such as mile-high pastrami sandwiches, knishes, blintzes and chopped liver, don't be surprised to find nachos, teriyaki chicken or a "taste of 'bama" (chicken-fried steak with Southern-style country gravy).

good matzo ball soup though too salty.

by cadcts

Breakfast "french toast" dry, maple syrup cold. Coffee weak but hot, cornbeef hash with potatoes and eggs: do not order. Food portions were overwhelming.

Brooklyn Bridge

by captaindback

Oy! This is NOT the vanilla Phoenix Chompies I visited a dozen years ago. Several things bowled me over here. First, the mature Jewish clientele. (I hope I can get by saying that since I grew up a nice gentile boy -what happened? never you mind! - in Sheepshead Bay). Anyway, you walk thru the door, you're halfway to Bensonhurst.

Second, bakery case much bigger than Karsh's. Cant vouch for anything yet except the chocolate eclairs, but the case looked amazing.

The pastrami makes, as they say, a very nice sandwich and the missus thoroughly enjoyed her kosher combo plate. My 11 year old baptised bubbala settled for his usual turkey sandwich. Goyishe kup. Heck, I was so giddy, I even ordered an egg creme!

• Pros: Brooklynesque, full deli, huge bakery selection
