Great sandwiches and BEST iced tea!

My husband and I recently moved to the neighborhood and found Kojak's on a recent evening for dinner. We both got sandwiches (the club and reuben), and although the bread was not the usual rye for the reuben, it was excellent. Everything was super fresh and delicious. The absolute best part was the iced tea - they have the REAL shaved ice and fresh brewed tea. You can also bring your own wine if you want, which we will probably do next time. Cute place, great food - it was hard to find their website, but it is kojakscafe.*com. We'll be back to try entrees!

Please check what is in your food!

My husband and me used to go at least twice a week, but not anymore. One day I ordered enchiladas to go and found three pieces of glass (the size of 1/4 aspirin each), and I swallowed one of them!. I went to the restaurant to show them the remaining 2 pieces and they told me that I made everythihg up while they were pulling the container out from my hands trying to keep it. The cashier called to the owner and he did not want to speak to me. The only think that I wanted was an apology and my money back, but I got nothing, just humilliation and a phone call from their insurance next day.

Sandwiches are great but TERRIBLE service!

I have run into Kojak's a lot to pick up lunch since it's close to my office, and everything I've eaten there has been great but there is one lady who is SO RUDE it's ridiculous. She snatches the money/credit card out of my hand when I pay, acts exasperated if you speak to her, doesn't return a smile and doesn't say "thank you" or "have a nice day" or "enjoy your lunch" or anything nice at all. Once I went and she was arguing with another member of the staff right at the cash register in front of the lunchtime rush, and the volume escalated to such a degree that I thought there was going to be a fistfight. IMO they have the best falafel sandwich in town but I doubt that getting the sandwich is worth putting up with the bad attitude. I guess they think they can get away with being so ugly b/c the food is far better than other shops in the neighborhood.

Very Good

This is a great place to grab a quick bite for lunch, take-out, or the casual sit down dinner. The sandwiches are great, especially the Monterrey Chicken Sandwich. The daily specials are generous in proportion and are reasonable priced. They also offer a wide variety of drinks, chips and desserts. There is also plenty of seating. It generally takes under 10 minutes from the time you order to the time you get your food. The only con I see with this restaurant is that it is not open on Saturdays or Sundays.

Terrible service, good food.

I go there regularly out of necessity as I live right by it. Each time, the service has been terrible. The people there are not at all courteous, especially this one particular lady who is amazingly rude every time for no apparent reason. The food is not bad, its fairly good--but the service just puts a huge damper on the experience. They really don't know how to run a restaurant business. Its sheer luck that they've been around for as long as they have. I guess their food is good enough for the likes of me to put up with it. Don't bother asking for any modifications to your food, the lady will get mad and act as if you just called her names. Also, don't be there in the last hour of their operation, they'll be ruder than before and even shut the lights out on you while talking about you right in your presence !
Its to the point that I am never going back anytime soon, I've taken this nonsense for over a year now. If they treat their regulars like this, I wonder how they are to people who just stop by. Virtually, every other person who I know has gone there, has some story about how mean/rude the staff has been.

KOJAKS Deli and Fine Foods a great place for Reasonable tasty dinners too.

Kojacks is a great choice for sandwiches and plate specials for lunch and they serve a
great selection of dinner entrees until 8PM M-F. They also have breakfast. Mark and
Katherine are your hosts and the staff is willing to make modifications and substitutions.

People think it is Greek but it is a fine cafe and very worthwhile.

My favorites are the shrimp and crab cakes, tilapia, mexican enchilada with chicken and
a cheese you would not expect to find. Pastas, Roasted Chicken and all Chicken entrees
are very good.

One of the top lunch choices is grilled chicken club you can pay to add avocado, the mozzerella
cheese is melted with bacon lettuce and tomato. I like Chicken salad and all are good.

They some Greek Humas and other healty choices and a wide selection of beverages. Wine and
beer are available, check if you can bring your own for set ups.

They are baking in house PITA CHIPS and other choices of cakes cookies and breakfast /coffee cakes.

The reviewer above sounds like a tough customer who is trying to get something additional nothing or
very demanding.

At dinner they serve your plate, lunch you usually pick up yourself with an electronic signal.

As of this writing kids eat free on Friday nights. An Undiscovered gem of place for dinner.

Excellent food

LIving within a few blocks, I've been here several times and always had excellent food and service. I only wish the ambience was better and they hadn't removed the wall of wine bottles which was very pretty. The chicken enchiladas are superb, and the Mediterranean plate very tasty. And the pastries are excellent.

Good food, nice people

Don't know where those guys went where they got such bad service 'cause it wasn't Kojak's. The food is good, everything is fresh, and the staff is nice.
