Absolutely delicious! The place itself is huge. Plenty of seating. It was well staffed and super clean. The lady who took my order at the counter was pleasant, as was every other staff member I interacted with. But the FOOD is where it's at! I had a raging hankering for a good pastrami sandwich and Wrights did not disappoint. Absolutely amazing. Also snagged a slice of peanut butter chocolate cake and not only was it delicious, but MASSIVE as well! Without a doubt will be back soon!!!

Much has already been said of Wright's Gourmet House - you can expect great food at reasonable prices. Portion-wise, I can tell you that I couldn't finish my sandwich, and I have a decent appetite. I had the Golden Gate, which was excellent. Great flavors and a unique twist with the homemade mustard sauce and their own peach chutney. My friend had the Monte Cristo, and he was surprised to find out that jelly wasn't included in the ingredients, but he still like it a lot. His standard fare is the Beef Martini. The deserts are decadent and expensive, but they're worth it. Expect to pay no less than $50 for a cake, $43 for a tray of 12 cupcakes and $14 for a loaf of banana bread, but they are guaranteed to be delicious. You will order at the counter and know when your order is ready by text message. The line was acceptable for prime time. I would pick out any deserts you want to take home while you're waiting.

An accidental but very happy find. As far as sandwich places go, if operational efficiency, cleanliness, and execution were an Olympic sport, this place would get more than their fair share of medals. If the sport were only about the cakes and desserts, they'd be gold in their category every time. Loved it. Uodate: Amended score. Several days later and we are still talking about the cakes. If that doesn't deserve a 5, what does? 2nd visit. Excellent. All three of us had the Cuban. The inside of the sandwich was outstanding, the bread I'm 50/50 on. The shrimp salad was one of the best I've ever eaten. Perfect blend of vegetables Ultra fresh tender shrimp in the perfect amount of mayonnaise.

Wright's Gourmet House offers an impressive selection of freshly baked goods, including cakes and cookies, as well as a variety of sandwiches and salads made daily with care. The quality of their offerings is evident in every bite, with flavors that are both rich and satisfying. Whether you're stopping by for a quick lunch or picking up a dessert for a special occasion, the freshness and attention to detail are consistently outstanding. However, it’s important to note that the high quality comes with a premium price tag. While the food is undoubtedly worth it for those seeking top-notch ingredients and preparation, budget-conscious diners may find the prices slightly steep. Overall, Wright's Gourmet House is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for freshly made, high-quality meals and baked goods. Just be prepared to pay a bit more for the exceptional experience.

Wright’s Deli in Tampa has become a favorite for our law office’s weekly luncheon, where we meet to discuss the latest updates in Florida partition law. The food is always fresh, the service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is perfect for professional gatherings. We also ordered a Mother’s Day cake from them—beautifully made and absolutely delicious. Whether you’re stopping by for lunch or picking up a special dessert, Wright’s Deli delivers every time!

Wright's is a fixture in the community because of great quality food, great service, and some iconic foods like the Turkey and Pecan Salad, Martini sandwich©, Golden Gate© with pork, bacon, cheese, dill pickle, and peach chutney. Today we shared the Golden Gate ©, and I savored the white bean chicken soup and Turkey and Pecan salad while my friend opted for 3 scoops of salad, coleslaw, broccoli and peanut, and shrimp pasta. What a way to enjoy Wright's grandma's secret recipes in an up-to-date fashion. It was too hard to select 1 of the 5 teas, so I chose to mix-and-match. Hummingbird cake, banana and pineapple with cream cheese frosting, another family recipe, comes in cake slices, whole cakes, or cupcakes piled high with frosting. They also cater and have a separate area for those who pre-order. best time to come to avoid lines is before 1130am or after 130pm. Wright's is always right! Accessible venue with free parking in front, street parking, and private lot with van access parking and adequate curb cuts.

Wrights Gourmet House has been open since April 20, 1963. They hired a German baker to create a special dough for them. The dough is in a circular shape, and they call it “Bucket Bread”. They still use this bread selling hundreds of sandwiches every day. Monday to Friday, they are open from 10 am to 5:30 pm, Saturday the hours are 10 am to 4pm, and they are closed Sunday and any major holidays. When deciding what we wanted to get for lunch, and I really was craving a sandwich. Usually when we go, the line is very long, but it moves fast. This time when we went there was only one person in front of us which filled us with joy because we were starving. The women working at the register could not have been more pleasant. We went up to order and I got the “Turkey Club” sandwich. I usually get it the way it comes but this time I asked them to toast the bread. We ordered two drinks, two bags of kettle cooked salt and vinegar chips, and coleslaw. Their POS system looks like it was the exact same from 50 years ago! But at the same time, super up to date because you receive a text for when your order is ready. They have freshly made iced teas like sweet tea, unsweet tea, mango tea etc. I went with a classic for me, an Arnold Palmer. They even have fresh mint and lemons to add to the tea. It is so unbelievably good. When you turn the corner there has to be at least 20 booths, 10 two person tables, and then they have a back room with much larger tables for bigger parties. But the place was full! We were definitely lucky to find a seat. You know a restaurant is going to be good when its full. Ten minutes go by, and we have already finished one bag of chips while waiting. The next sound we hear is the ping from the phone and our food is ready. The tray of food looked amazing. I grab my sandwich off the tray and immediately grab one section as if I have never seen food before. The bread was warm, and the ratio of the turkey, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and bacon was absolutely perfect, I could taste how fresh everything was. The turkey meat was shaved super thin (which I love), the tomato slices were so fresh and thin as well, the Swiss cheese was a little thicker than the average slice of cheese, but this was necessary because of how large the sandwich was. It was a triple decker meaning 3 slices of bread. I go in for the first bite. My taste buds go crazy. The sandwich flavors are amazing. I could taste everything inside separately; the flavor was like heaven on earth. The bread was warm but the goods inside were cold, it honestly was the most perfect turkey club I have ever had in the Tampa Bay area. I was only able to finish half the sandwich as it is huge! It was now time for the coleslaw. It was ok…. It had an acquired taste of what I thought was cinnamon. I would not get the coleslaw again especially for the price. I packaged up my other half of the sandwich and we headed out. I would recommend Wright's Gourmet Deli to my worst enemy! I truly believe everyone, and anyone should try Wright’s deli at some point. Whether you are looking for a cold deli sandwich or just a tasty treat, Wright's Gourmet says, “We’re only as good as our last sandwich”.

Great place for Deli sandwiches, salads, and cakes. The Cuban sandwich and shrimp salad was terrific. Self-service, great ambience, overall a great place for lunch. Pair it with their signature iced teas and cakes.

Wow, just wow! Whatever you do, make sure you go to Wright's Gourmet House. They do everything they do so well. The grilled cheese, plethora of other sandwich options, cakes and pies and fresh made teas are all to die for. Ordered- mango iced tea- it's funny how much of an impression this tea had on me. It was so so so good! I wish I lived nearby and could get this tea on a regular basis. It's unsweetened, but if you want it just a tad sweet (or more) I recommend that you mix in a little sweet tea. Turkey club- $15- this cold sandwich is filled to the brim with sliced turkey, lettuce, ripe tomato (it was beautifully red!), and thick cut bacon. It typically comes on pumpernickel but I opted for the Cuban bread and I was very happy with this decision. They put mayo and mustard on the bread and it also had jarlsberg cheese. Pumpkin pie- this was a very generous sized slice. It hit the spot! I would order this again for sure. As I said earlier, don't miss out on Wright's Gourmet House!

Saturday 9/14/2024 Found this spot while looking for the "best bakery in Tampa" and saw that they had carrot cake (my favorite cake) but they also had sandwiches. I got the Cuban sandwich $13.25 and a carrot cake slice $8.50. - the Cuban sandwich was okay but wasn't anything special or impressive as I've had many better. It could've benefited a lot more with a sauce like mayo or ranch. - The carrot cake was pretty good and it had ALOT of icing. I can't say it's the best I've had but it definitely ranks relatively high with comparison to all the various carrot cakes I've had. Overall, the carrot cake slice is valid for a visit but i can't say the same for the Cuban sandwich as it was underwhelming.

Wright's Gourmet House was the perfect spot for lunch and I am glad I finally got to visit. The line was pretty long, but went fast. You can also call ahead and order to avoid the line. Customer service was great. My order didn't take too long to get ready. I tried their Paris and Cuban sandwich - both great. I got a slice of their chocolate cake to go and it was amazing. I definitely want to come back to try more of their menu. Prices are reasonable as well. I highly recommend coming here if you are looking for a good lunch spot!

Newest Updated Review Oh how I love the coconut cake that I " use to " get at least once a week. However - sold to owners of Oxford Exchange... ingredients & overall quality/ quantity is slightly different. My go to sandwich here would be the beef martini on an onion roll toasted. The cakes are now way smaller in size. Price wise the cost of course has gone up. Why the 3 stars ? It's now present moment - just A-ok worthy of a 3 star overall experience. I'll cross my fingers to hope that taste doesn't go down... that's that !

This is a Tampa institution and I hope nothing changes with the new ownership. We always grab a slice of the yellow cake with chocolate icing and carrot cake when we stop here for a sandwich. I loved the old school dining room before the renovation, but I get why they updated it. Ordering and pre ordering is a breeze with the systems they have in place. Great for small orders as well as for catering. As for sandwiches, the BLT is consistently good. They have the best tomatoes ever. The golden gate is great for a salty sweet sandwich. The staff is always friendly and efficient. Great job done by all.

I was in Florida from Vegas and was flying out from Tampa, needed a quick bite and wanted a sandwich in close proximity to the airport. Looked on Yelp and found this gem. Oh my!! Everything from the service, the vibe and especially the food was Phenomenal! I had a grilled Reuben and my daughter had a ham and cheese, the Reuben was amazing!! Not fatty delicious all around, I also ordered potato salad, a slice of carrot cake and 6 cookies to go, so I could bring some cookies back to Vegas because everything was that good. Now I'm on a mission to find something at home that is comparable, but have been let down. They have a wide variety of baked goods, cookies, cakes and iced teas, plenty of space throughout the restaurant to sit, although it seems they most likely are always busy. If you're in the area, you should definitely try Wright's out!

What isn't there to like about Wrights?!?! The BEST cakes in town. Pricey but worth every penny. Gourmet sandwiches that won't disappoint. Wrights is THE deli spot in South Tampa. Very spacious inside; plenty of seating. Service is always friendly and efficient. If you have never tried Wrights Gourmet, what are you waiting for?

I first learned about Wright's after eating their cake at a work party. "I must eat this cake again", I said to myself. Before my son's birthday party, I took my wife to Wright's to taste-test a couple of slices. The actual space is huge and packed with customers. We ordered sandwiches and wow. Their sandwiches are even better than the cake! I go a turkey club, toasted. Two meals easy. A half sheet of the strawberry cake fed 20 adults with more than half the cake left over. I went back again for more sandwiches. This time I got a Bahama Baby, with pork, bacon, and peach chutney, grilled of course. Delicioso. A double-whammy, my top choice for sandwiches and cake in Tampa.

We've been trying to go to Wrights for the last couple of months, but every time we go it's been crowded. This time was still crowded but decided to stick through the line and I'm glad we did because the sandwich and service were spectacular. I ordered the New Yorker and it was delicious. The bread was crispy, the meat was tasty and the melty cheese, amazing. Overall a great meal. The deserts were equally as good and I highly recommend.

It was a great pleasure to visit this establishment based on a recommendation from a friend. I must say, it surpassed my expectations. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the customers in line were equally pleasant. The sandwiches were absolutely delicious, and the selection of cakes and other treats was truly impressive. I would definitely recommend it and will be visiting again when I return home.

Wright's is a Tampa staple. Family Birthday cake requests are typically from here. We had some family in town and needed to order a large order to provide lunch for everyone. We got a variety of different salads and sandwiches. The Rueben and tuna salad are my go to selections. Everything is always delicious. My all time favorite treat is the banana bread.

Yelp
Well ladies and gents, I think I may have found the best sandwich spot in the Tampa area. Let's start with the wonderful beef martini sando. It's one of the richest sandwiches I've had in quite some time. Beautifully toasted bread, garlic herb butter infused, the marinated mushrooms and of course the shaved beef. It's super buttery and Each bite is a contrast between crispy and soft. The cookie itself was very enjoyable and I really enjoyed the pecan bits inside. I think we can all agree nuts make cookies better. It's a softer cookie but still has a bit of crunch on the exterior. As for the service, I forget who was working but it was around closing time and the cashier couldn't have been any cooler. Overall the staff here are just well rounded people and I'd love to try more sandwiches.

This place is a definite visit whenever I'm in Tampa. The sandwiches and the cakes are amazing! The beef martini is my absolute favorite and the alpine cake is so good I'd go out of my way to get it! If you're in the area stop by for sure!

Went there for lunch. Was surprised at how large this place was. When you enter you see pass these refrigerator cases loaded with different kinds of cake slices and cup cakes. I noticed how long the line was to order and thought to myself that this is going to be a long time. To my astonishment the line went really fast and once we sat down it took less than 10 minutes for me to get the text that our order was ready. I ordered the Monte Cristo which was full of meat the sandwich is huge and full of meat. I will get 4 meals out of it. The cake slice is absolutely huge. The hummingbird cake is like a banana bread cake with cream cheese frosting. It was decadent. I will enjoy it for many days. I nice touch was that they had a table with bags and foil lined pouches for your leftovers.

Came here today while searching for a lunch place close to our location. This place has great reviews and truly we were not disappointed. The ordering was simple and the descriptions of each of the meals were perfect. We ordered the Reuben and the New Yorker. We added chips and tea both of which they had several options. I was only able to eat half my sandwich but that just gives me a snack a little later. I also picked up two heaven bars since several reviews said they were heavenly. At fifty dollars for two sandwich lunches it felt a little pricey but the quality of the food was excellent. I will totally come back when im on this side of town.

We stopped here for lunch recently and were amazed at the selection of salads and sandwiches they offered. You go to the counter to order and you can make any adjustments to your sandwich to fit your preferences. I got the New Yorker Grilled. It was absolutely fantastic and piled high with meat. Their orange spice iced tea was fantastic and I loved that they offered fresh mint that you could put in your tea along with lemon slices. They have booths or tables with chairs you can sit at and eat in a dining area off to the right of where you order. It was a great experience and I look forward to coming back and trying something new here.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I ordered a 9 inch red velvet cake and a variety of cupcakes for a baby shower. From the first contact over the phone to the delivery of the product, everything was perfectly and efficiently handled. I wish I had recorded the names of the women who handled my order and all my questions. They were both so professional and patient! The cake was beautifully decorated- exactly as I requested " something magically is brewing" in pink icing with pink booties. The red velvet cake was delicious and so moist. The variety of cupcakes were all so tasty, so moist! No a disappointing one among the bunch. I would highly recommend for your next gathering! Maybe pricier than Publix or Sam's but so worth it if you want to make a statement!

I've been a Wright's patron all of my life. I love their sandwiches and soup. What keeps me coming back is the warm, friendly service & family atmosphere. **They are actually closed on Sundays and most holidays specifically for family time.They have gourmet desserts, Hummingbird cake, Coconut cream pie & Quiche. The Tuna, garden or shrimp pasta salad are some of my Regulars. Brownies, banana bread, Pumpkin pies. Cuban coffee. Oh, and did I mention cake? :) St. Patty's Day is a good time to taste the corn beef meal they serve annually in ode to the holiday. They also serve Reuben sandwiches. Ever since the remodeling, I've titled Wrights a Deli-rant instead of a cafe. There's so much history built within the place...you can see paintings & photos along the walls of the dining section. Try them out if you're in the S. Dale Mabry area. And if you don't know what to choose take home the pastrami sandwich & a slice of cake. Front entrance parking, across the street parking & back parking lot (pretty good) *Easy lunch idea *Cleanliness

Recently visited this Tampa staple for the first time with some friends. I was confused walking in as to how and where to order, how to pick up and unfortunately my cashier was not very friendly or helpful. I chose the turkey salad sandwich and wasn't overly impressed. It's pricy for just a sandwich, no sides included - I paid around $16 for a drink and sandwich. The bread was good, the turkey salad was just ok. I had to add salt and pepper to give it some seasoning. I will say I liked the option of several flavors of tea to choose from. Apparently they are known for their cakes but I did not try any that day. Honestly probably won't return unless a group votes on it and I lose my vote.

Wright's is one of my favorite places to go in the Tampa Bay Area. Not only is the food phenomenal, but the encounters with staff are always pleasant and the ambiance makes you feel right at home. The fruit and veggies are always fresh. The desserts are also delicious. They have the best banana bread I've ever had! The cupcakes/cakes are moist and have the perfect amount of sweetness. My favorite sandwich is the turkey club without bacon. I always add extra veggies, which makes it even better. They also have a mustard that's a MUST HAVE on any sandwich. I definitely recommend trying this restaurant. You won't be disappointed!

I'm filing this under "What took my so long???" to come here? Wright's Gourmet House (at least according to it's written history) has been around Tampa for several decades and its basically a local staple. I have passed this place many, many times, but have always been too lazy to stop by. Well, I decided to change that last week with my first visit. Their menu is extensive. At ton of sandwiches, side salads, salads, and some brunchy items. And of course, the thing to real me in--CAKE!!! Cake slices, cupcakes, dessert bars, brownies, large cookies. I felt so overwhelmed with all the choices that I didn't know what to settle on. I went with some well known staples. Quiche, side pasta salad, and a cupcake. Their quiche Lorraine is HUGE, filling, and stuffed with a lot of ham. It makes a meal unto itself, which made me so grateful I only got 1/4 a cup of pasta salad (you order these side salads in a variety of sizes to suit your taste). The side salad of pesto pasta salad was tasty and included some veggies mixed in for an extra crunch. No for the cake, it was hard for me to choose, but I settled on Hawaiian Princess, which is pineapple cake with coconut icing, coconut flakes, and centered with more pineapple. I don't see pineapple cake very often in comparison to red velvet, vanilla, or chocolate, so Hawaiian Princess it is. It was juicy, refreshing, decadent, and sweet. It tasted what Florida would be if Florida had a taste--forget Hawaii. The interior is homey, somewhat classic with the booths, tables, and wall art depicting various settings, but not at all dated to me. There was ample seating and space for perusal and taking your order. With the menu being so extensive, its going to take several visits for me to get the gist of all Wright's has to offer, but nonetheless, I'm impressed with the expansive variety, and can't wait to sample more.

There's a reason there's always a long line at this spot. They have a great variety of sandwiches, cakes and other premade salads. I ordered the turkey pecan sandwich and it was tasty - they also give you several options to customize based on bread and toasting. The hummingbird cake was also delicious and unique flavor. You can buy cupcakes, cake slices or entire cakes. I would suggest ordering ahead or getting there early but definitely check it out!

I have known of this place for years......why did we wait so long to experience this awesome and tasty place? We ordered a Monte Cristo sandwich $13.25, a Turkey Chef Salad $14 and a slice of Hummingbird Cake $8.50. The sandwich is the size of two sandwiches. I ate 1/4 and I am taking the rest home....it's huge. This is THE Tastiest sandwich I remember eating. Even though the menu is huge, it will be difficult fir me to think about ordering another kind. The salad was a good dice and so fresh and tasty. We've never had Hummingbird Cake before and the best way I can describe it's majesty is that it's like a super moist and nutty banana bread with pineapple and a nice and not extremely sweet Cream cheese icing. The staff are all very nice and helpful. I never comment on restrooms because there is never anything remarkable to share....not the case here. Restrooms are multiple and unisex. Each one is a room unto itself. All seem to be handicap accessible and feature changing tables. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this wonderful restaurant and we cannot wait to return.

my wife went to theWright gourmet on a recommendation from work. We got this three tier vanilla cake with chocolate icing. It was so good and and I added some ice cream with that and it was heaven. I thought I was at my grandma's house back in Jersey having cake and ice cream and it right that's so many memories of Home. The chocolate icing was so creamy and delicious. The vanilla cake was moist and real good. I was a pick up so I'm not sure about the servants or ambience but some of the sandwiches I saw I know I'll be driving over there from Brandon to get a turkey sandwich on pumpernickel. If you make a apple pie deep dish apple pie and you pinch the crust, I'll be over there for that also I just imagine how good it will taste. You have a customer right now.

I have never felt so compelled to come write a review before until now. And just WOW! Wrights was absolutely amazing. I got the Beef Martini sandwich grilled and I can absolutely say it is one of the BEST dang sandwiches I have ever eaten, super unique and flavorful. Total perfection! I also got 7 different kinds of cupcakes and each one (yes I took a nibble of all) we phenomenal. My favorite was definitely the Hawaiian Princess. So moist, light and fresh! I can't believe I've lived in this area for over a year and never knew of this place. I will definitely be back...many many times!

We have been ordering the hummingbird cake every Christmas for 20 years give or take a few. This year, the cake was crazy stale. Very disappointed as was my family. Did not even finish whereas in the past, the cake would be even better the second or third day.

This place is a gem !!!! Came today due to the Facebook message on my feed. I had to come on my day off. My Cuban sandwich was so good !!! The turkey veggie soup was off the chain. The food here is impeccable. These hard working people here gives the good a great hometown feel and worth the price. It has a lot of people that travel from north Tampa, downtown Tampa, and Lutz area , because of their great reputation. I always come here, because my aunt says that the creme of the crop come here to eat, smooz, and do business while dining in. Great clean building, clean restrooms and the food is worth the trip. Thank the staff, before you leave.

The peppermint cake at Christmas deserves a five star all by itself. It is unbelievably rich and delicious and could feed a regiment. Also to get, the rum cake. In short, don't pass through Tampa during the holidays without making this stop.

I've been here twice and both times there has been a decently long line. I will say it is absolutely worth the wait though. After ordering we've gotten our food pretty quickly. The restaurant is a deli and it is very clean in there. Plenty of seating for everyone as well. The food is amazing, I had the Texan and it is a big sandwich, enough for 2 meals. The beef martini was delicious as well and I really liked the onion bread. Sorry for the picture of the already eaten coconut cake but it was delicious as well! One of the most moist delicious store bought cakes I've had.

Yelp
Last week we bought slices of Hummingbird and Hawaiian Princess cake in order to decide which whole cake we would order for my mom's 90th birthday cake. We chose Hawaiian Princess due to the coconut cake and cream cheese frosting but decided to request that coconut flakes be added to the frosting as it seemed to be missing something. Wright's was very accommodating and they wrote Happy Birthday Mom and included pretty roses along with sprinkles of coconut along the edges as part of the decoration. The cake was a hit with the 6 of us, with my mother stating it was the best she has had. Remember, 90 years old. She was a diplomat's wife and a New Yorker who is picky with her food so it was high praise from her! My brother, who lives in Sarasota, took a picture of the side of the cake box so he can place orders in the future. I assumed Wright's Gourmet would deliver a great cake, and as always, they didn't disappoint!

The best place in South Tampa for sandwiches, anything in the menu is fabulous! Service is great and people are happy to dine relaxed and to finish off with one of there great deserts! You're missing out on a Tampa established long time business. You won't be sorry that you headed there for lunch!

After an unsuccessful fishing trip, I stopped by here for some food. Note, it is incredibly busy here so be patient. It's a deli with counter service. They call you when your order is ready. I opted for the grilled monte cristo and it was excellent! The tomato bisque was very good too. It's a busy vibe here, so finding parking is hard. A good local deli. Recommended.

Finally tried this Tampa staple, and it was amazing! I got the New Yorker, a Reuben, a seventh wonder bar, and a gigantic slice of coconut cake-- all were DELISH~! The New Yorker was grilled perfectly, with a super buttery and crispy crust. The portion of meat was generous and moist, and I loved the light but tangy sauce. The desserts were wild, I thought the seventh wonder bar looked a bit small, but I was full after eating just half of it, it was sooo rich and decadent. If you're a crazy coconut fan, do try it. The cake was the opposite, really light and airy, and the cream was super soft and wonderful! If you're a closeted coconut fan, try this one. Overall, I had a really filling and delicious meal here. The biggest highlight for me was honestly the service. I was not expecting it to be so spacious inside, so it was a bit overwhelming trying to figure out what to do first, but the staff were really nice and welcoming. The attention to detail I think really makes this place stand out, when you order to go or get the cake slices that are already wrapped up, they all come with plastic plates. There's giant menus on the walls as well as paper ones you can grab by the door, incredible, ready-made desserts are everywhere you look, and everything was so neat and clean. There's even chairs in front of the counter to sit on while you wait for your food! It was just a very pleasant experience being here. If you're visiting Tampa, or live here and still haven't checked this place out somehow, do come by!

Now I see what the fuss is all about! My husband and I have been wondering why this place stays busy and went in for lunch today. Walking in, you instantly smell the freshness of the bread and desserts. We ordered the tuna salad sandwich (on pumpernickel toasted) and the Monte Cristo (pressed on white). Both were delicious, and appreciated the sandwich cut into 4 manageable pieces. Our go to sandwich shop is usually Gulf Coast Sourdough in Seminole Heights, but this is much closer, just as good and more variety. Great lunch spot!

Had lunch here on Wednesday, place is big with counter orders and pickup. We went with a pastrami sandwich and a turkey sandwich. the bread was fresh and the meat very tasty. their deserts looked great but we stayed away from them. Staff was very nice and the place was very clean.

Yum!! I wish I lived in Tampa so I could visit here all the time. My friend ordered breakfast and lunch catering for her wedding day. They arrived on time and the breakfast was heated! The quiche was creamy made with a handmade crust. It was perfectly cooked and all of the bridesmaids were raving about the flavor. I fell in love with the Lorraine but the Florentine was amazing too! The fruit platter came with a dipping sauce. It tasted like a strawberry cream cheese whip; absolutely delicious! The lunch was just as good! The sandwiches had a lot of flavor and some even had dressing on top. The bread was fresh and melted in your mouth. I was so impressed with the quality of catering. I wish they had a bakery in south Florida that was this good! I'm dying to go back and would highly recommend ordering for your next party.

Brought my son and roommate for a quick lunch. The sandwiches are super tasty especially when toasted. We ordered the Paris Sandwich and the Beef martini. Both sandwiches were very tasty! Inside is a modern style deli. You place your order and get a table then wait for a text when your order is ready. It's quick no nonsense but tasty!

Excellent deli! Corned beef is lean and sliced thin.. the rye bread was so fresh and the jarlsberg cheese was perfect. To top it off the best deli salads potato salad with dill and broccoli salad with peanut s. It is typical deli service which is great a typical deli experience. Love this place!!!!

Best. Sandwiches. Ever!!!! My family and I went here for the first time and it was incredible! We ordered the Brie and Turkey sandwich, roast beef sandwich and Cuban. All three were mouthwatering! The staff was so friendly and accommodating. We got there 5 minutes before closing and they encouraged us to take our time and enjoy our food. Can't wait to go back!!!

If your in the Tampa area and is looking for a delicious deli/bakery this is the spot!! Wow I was blown away by how busy the Wrights was but I was definitely determined to finally try them and the wait way totally worth it!! As your looking at the menu you can look around and see all the beautiful baked good while enjoying the smell of sandwiches being pressed and delicious soups being stirred! This place is all yumm. I got the Cuban and also a slice of carrot cake which I couldn't have been more happy with. My husband club sandwich had an issue which was just a miscommunication and they happily replaced it for us which made this place way more enjoyable, it was a little hard finding seating but on a slower day there's no problem. These sandwhiches are bigger than your average joe and the meats and cheeses are of great quality, your won't get a dry sandwich. The grilled cheese is so ooey gooey Definitely a worth it trip

WoW !! Drove by saw people coming out with bags.. looked it up in Yelp and here I am writing a review. Sandwiches, breads, potato salads, sweets and much more!! I was taken aback when I walked through the doors. It's the deli house you're not expecting inside. Very bright and sweet smelling place. It has outside and inside seating for you to sit with your pet or enjoy a wonderful Florida day. Service was fast and filled with friendly smiles. We had a chicken salad and a turkey sandwich. Everything tasted fresh and so tasty! The cakes were soooo huge!! Couldn't resist and had a large slice. I'll be sure to take pictures next time.. f
