I am not a fan of Delis, but Tasty Picks is in a league of its own. Given the area where this is located, makes this definitely 5 stars. Most urban areas I have lived in or visited don't have places with this selection. Any of us who have lived in quite urban areas knows the selection of Fried Chicken spots/ Liquour stores vs Healthy food options is like 10 to 1 lol
What makes place so great? Location, Price, service or Well take a look at the pics and here's a breakdown.
You can just about have them make any type of sandwich for you with almost any type of toppings, dressings, maybe bread( didn't check the bread options). I mean it beats mickey Ds, Dunkin, blimpies, and your 50 fried chicken spots.
You can any type of smoothie with fresh fruits and vegetables. They even have weigh protein, chia seeds, and other supplements if you wanna add them in.
Fresh deserts lol. I mean that is a bad thing ,but it's a nice option to have. 🙂
The way everything is displayed here is great. Everything kind of pops, especially the smoothie section where they have the Vegtables and fruits it's so Vibrant.
The staff here are friendly and welcoming. There is a reason why this place gets packed and I definitely would say this is cleanest option in the area.
The salad here is really good, fresh greens, big portions, variety of toppings and dressings. Nice prices too.
As someone who works at the Montefiore Hospital right across the street, I am glad I finally discovered this place!
Great prices for great/simple food!
I got the chicken and lamb combo over rice for just $6 and it was delicious.
I recommend asking for extra white sauce. I would also CAUTIOUSLY recommend asking for extra red sauce. The red sauce was surprisingly spicy! and i'm pretty good at spicy foods. So… when i got the double red sauce.. my mouth was pleasantly on fire, but still bearable. If you can't take the heat, don't risk it.
their rice was a bit wet and I didn't like their white sauce as much when compared to The Halal Guys. but this is so far the best chicken/lamb and rice in the bronx i've found!
they also have a great selection of other foods as well.
the inside is also very pristine (unlike most other corner food shops / food trucks like these)
I'll be back!
Great little deli across from the hospital. Very cramped, but the food, smoothies, and juices are very good. I had the lamb gyro with a touch of hot sauce. The pita was toasted and warm with a salty (but not too salty) bite to it. The meat was really good as well- loved the white sauce and the spices it was seasoned with. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the chunks of cucumber… I might go without them next time. My fiancé got the heart attack (lol what a name for a sandwich). Fried chicken, curly fries, "pink sauce"… The works haha. It was pretty great I have to say.
The berry smoothie was really good- the fruit is very fresh and the smoothie was blended really well. There was even some left over and they have us the extra in a little cup!
I got their green juice. I've never had one before so I thought I'd try some veggies in my drink. This one had apples, lemon, ginger, kale, spinach, and parsley. It was sour from the lemon but it tasted really fresh… I just realized that maybe green juices aren't necessarily my cup of tea haha.
Lots of good snacks there too! Great place to have so easily accessible to the hospital.
Er…ok?
I came here after a walk through Van Cortlandt Park since I had been craving juice or a smoothie for ages. It came up on my trusty Yelp app. The reviews were stellar and I was expecting something great!
It was… alright.
To me, Tasty Picks is not all that different from any other deli, especially around the hospitals in Norwood. Something like this would be nice on the other side of the Bronx where the closest thing we have to smoothies or salads is the overpriced Panera.
I ordered a smoothie, I forgot what it was called. It tasted okay. It was also really small for the price of $3.99.
If you work at the hospital this is cool beans but it's defintely not worth a trip. You can get similar smoothies at Samcity down by the D train.
