This was our first time ordering from there. When I walked in and was standing in front of the cashier for at least a minute, (she was Packing an order and she didn’t say a word to me. Someone else walked up to pay his bill and she spoke to him asked if we’re together, he said no she looked at me. What do you want? I’m here to pick up an order she said, over there. Extremely extremely rude!!!!!

Love this Italian deli and with an old school Italian deli vibe. I’ve been going there for 25+years. They definitely remember the regulars

This place is great. Upon entering we were greeted and the lovely lady proceeded to give us multiple samples of her home cooked food. Everything was delicious which made it hard for us to choose what to get. Did not disappoint. The eggplant parmesan was delicious as were the meatballs and sausage and peppers. I highly recommend this place. The food was fantastic the service was great all at fair prices. Will definitely be going back.

Always good food, from sandwiches to lasagna, arancinis and a large selection of home made salads, cold food to hot. The staff is always friendly and calm – even when they gotta be frazzled on the inside ’cause it gets soo busy. The wait can be long at those busy times but I just go with it. My husband’s eyes light up when I tell him we’re having Rex’s for dinner (even though he’s paying).

The meatball sub wasn’t very special, tasted/ smelled old and it was colder than I would liked. Ordered another sub, the guy didn’t put gloves on at first and another worker had to remind him to wear gloves. I had heard great things, but the taste didn’t live up to the hype.

A very decorated Italian deli shop with some great options. I like the vibe & the service was great. I got the Italian sub, their muffuletta, and a cannoli. Their muffuletta was pretty amazing & I wish they made it available all the time; putting a little marinara sauce on top with a dash of oregano was a nice touch!

This is a traditional, old school Italian deli with variety of Foods. I ordered a meat lasagna and it was delicious. All foods are home made and the staff are really friendly. I suggest them to heat up the food well before serving, since my lasagna was not hot as it was supposed to be. The dining area is not too large but it’s in a good size though. Overall I recommend it to everyone.

Sceptical going in.. they’re Italian..Im a black male. Certain perceptions abound. When I went in..the sweet white haired lady at the counter was genuinely nice and accommodating, which made me glad I listened to a coworker at the hospital I work at who mentioned Rex’s. Eeeeeevrrything looked so good I wanted to eat it all!

My recent visit to Rex’s, Italian deli, left me feeling underwhelmed and dissatisfied. Unfortunately, my experience was overshadowed by the unwelcoming and unfriendly demeanor of both owners who were behind the counter.
