So glad their new location is open! The other location they have up the road in SoHo is standing room only where you literally have to wiggle in between everyone grabbing their lunch. Thankfully the new Broadway store has plenty more space to move around, and even has a seating area up on the 2nd floor.
In terms of what sets Gourmet Garage apart, it's the soup bar. About a dozen different types of soup that seem to rotate daily, all a notch above what you will find in most other delis. My favorite is the turkey chili, with the chicken pot pie soup a close second. There's also a good chicken and sausage jambalaya that occasionally makes its way into the rotation that is quite good.
Only thing I don't like about this location is their sandwiches, the deli meat is sliced way too thick on all the sandwiches I've ever gotten there.
I came in here to warm up after standing outside Casey Neistat's office hoping that he would come out..I was frozen. From roaming the store, they seem to be packed with goodies. Lots of fresh food and premade daily food. They had cheese samples and of course I helped myself to it. The prices were a bit on the higher end but what do you expect, it's in the city and on Broadway. They had a lot of organic and healthy swag.
I work not too far away so today I took a stroll down Broadway and see that this place is open! Apparently they have been open for a month now. Nice to have a grocery store in this area.
It was a bit chilly today, so I opted for soup. But out of the 10 or so options, most had some sort of meat in it or cooked in chicken broth. I ended up getting a small pasta e fagioli and it cost me over $5. Soup was lukewarm and didn't really warm my innards at all, but luckily the sun was out really bright, so I did warm up sitting out in the park.
Much of the items in this store are overpriced and not everything is healthy. I think though this place will get a lot of traffic as it is in a good location, but I think I will pass on most lunch days as there are other great options in the area that don't cost an arm and a leg.
So glad it's finally open!! They have a convenient seating space in the back part of the store – you have to go up the stairs in the back left of the store. Delicious sushi, very fresh.
