Bread and Butter
“Finally, there is a seating area upstairs, which always has open seats, and a few grocery in the back.”
“Haven't tried to order grocery items yet (say a carton of fresh strawberries) but I wouldn't be surprised if they let you throw those in too!”
“They've been having this ongoing lunch promotion where you get a large salad with unlimited toppings and small soup for just about $8.”

Huge deli / salad bar with seating upstairs. I got a sandwich named "The Little Italian" which had mozzarella and prosciutto among other ingredients. It was quite good and I liked that the size wasn't super large.
They have hot / cold sandwiches, a salad bar, udon a bunch of other sections. It can be overwhelming.
Lines are a bit unorganized, so you do have to be somewhat pushy to get your order in.
I have a Meetup group, and had Meetups here every other Sunday given it has a lot of space, but the last time I visited the men making my french toast were extremely rude to me, talked about me in Spanish when I was right there (not knowing I can understand them), and laughed at me. I decided I will be taking my loyal business elsewhere. Burn me once and you're done. Sorry, Bread and Butter on Park South, but you're on my black list.
I love bread and butter and so does my co-workers. It's our go to spot when we are hungry and need to order delivery or pick up. The selections are great from pasta, salad, sandwiches to soups and korean and japanese food and a salad bar of a variety of food. I know plenty of deli's around offer the same type of selections but the food is delicious here and always on point. Breakfast is one of my favorites here and the cooks are amazing!
What I wouldn't recommend here is getting fruits from the salad bar because it's always so expensive for me.
The lines can be long but it's quick.
I came in once, it was great.
I decided to come back, and it was good.
Then I tried again, and it was good-ish.
One again, and it was okay.
Then okay, okay, and bad, and bad and goodish and…sigh.
New job, new office location, new strategic lunch decisions. Bread and butter is a few blocks down from where I work, and it was very helpful to be able to be indecisive about what I wanted for lunch AND be able to make a decision between a variety of foods all while remaining in the same building.
My old office had a place like this on the ground floor, so the hot bar, sandwiches, salads…very familiar. However, there is a line between familiarity and consistency that varies far too much to make this my solid, go-to lunch place.
The hot bar looks good if you get there when it gets out, but for a 1:37pm lunch, i've seen what it looks like picked over, and suddenly the price per pound doesn't seem as worth it.
I've had a few really good sandwiches – both grilled chicken and one of the specialty roast beef ones. I've also had some bad sandwiches – and they were the same ones. What you order vs. what you get varies, likely dependent on a variety of factors; who is making it, crowds, what time it is, etc.
Sometimes I get exactly what I ask for, sometimes the guys go on autopilot and replace mustard with mayo, forget the lettuce, etc. Since the counters are so high, I can't really see what they are doing, otherwise I would correct them. Once I get to my office, it's a little late.
My breaking point was my roast beef sandwich turned lettuce sandwich with one single slice of roast beef on it. I was really hungry and it did not satisfy.
When it's good it's very good, and when it's not, it's frustrating. I don't want to consistently police my food prep, so while i'm not a daily patron, I know that I need to pay attention when I do come in.
On a separate note, the prices (sandwiches, breakfast food, coffee) are reasonable, and the coffee (iced hazelnut) is really refreshing. I'd say the hot bar is fair game if you get there early, there are better places to get a salad for $10, and as long as you pay attention you'll likely get a pretty good sandwich.
For many many years, this was my go-to spot in the area for hot buffet food. Very nice selection with friendly employees.
I've had nearly everything here, from the sandwiches to the sushi and the buffet food and have nothing bad to say. There's more than enough comfy seating upstairs.
It can get pretty busy around lunch time obviously, so plan accordingly.
This place literally has it all and is great if you are in a rush and don't feel like spending an outrageous amount of money on a quick bite to eat. I got two slices of pizza for under $5 and in under 5 minutes. Huge salad bar for those feeling healthier than this .
They offer a wide variety from a hot food line to pastries, sandwiches, salad bar and even sushi. They'll have something to satisfy any craving. The food overall is good. I wouldn't say great, its still a deli. The price is reasonable considering its Park Avenue. I normally spend anywhere from $9 to $12 on a filling meal. The spacious upper seating level is an added plus. A great lunch option for affordability and variety.
Ok for a quick bite when you're in the neighborhood. I was overwhelmed by the choices. I had a muffin and coffee. I sat at a counter by the window. After I made my food selection I was confused about who to pay. Like I said the place is overwhelmingly large!
I took a walk around both floors just to see the selections. They have a grocery in one section.
I didn't feel comfortable here. I doubt I'll be back.
