Used to be good. It’s gotten so bad I don’t even ask for ketchup on a breakfast sandwich because they’ll mess up the entire sandwich. When told I would be credited for an entire sandwich they took off only a few dollars off my bill. Most recently I didn’t even ask for a toasted bagel and it was black on the bottom of the bagel not even edible. It’s sad to see what used to be such a great place turn into something so bad.

I want to thank Liz from SeaQua deli in Massapequa for all of her help, she was kind, friendly, funny and extremely helpful in planning what turned out to be a beautiful Memorial for my husband this weekend…at the last minute! I know he would have loved the Southern BBQ we threw for him. The food was so delicious…first time EVER I had no leftovers! They ate it all and the comments were fabulous! So thank you so much for making this an event that did my husband justice. I highly recommend Liz and SeaQua deli for any event!!!!

I love seaqua deli, but my order was very disappointing. I order from them often & don’t ever have complaints because their so good. I ordered a shaggy press sandwich asked for avocado where I was charged $1.50 to only get maybe a sliver slice of an avocado, not worth that extra charge at all!

Breakfast and lunch is hit or miss. They have messed up my orders enough times where it’s more than “on occasion”. The coffee selection is good, better than most delis. They have a salad stand, but ordering food there is more frustrating than it ought to be. Food is pricier than other comparable delis. Place looks nice and indoor seating is pretty good. Outdoor seating is available, weather permitting. Overall, they have a good selection of food, but the quality being so so, the frustration that happens often, and the priciness, is why it only gets 3 stars.

I never had a bad thing to say about them my whole lifetime of giving them business but the last 3 times I’ve ordered for delivery it has taken almost 2 hours and I live legitimately almost down the block. Everything that I ordered today was terrible my egg sandwich was ice cold the soup and potato salad were honestly two of the worst things I’ve ever eaten and it’s really sad. Hopefully you guys stop cutting corners because this is ridiculous I will not be ordering anytime in the near future if ever again.

This place makes the best home fries! Better then the diners and restaurants in many places I have been to, not just in new York, but all over. It's now my #1 place to get my egg whites and home fries Platter. Plus they have hot sauce packets that are all natural. Many places have hot sauce with food coloring in it.

We ordered the Hawaiian luau catering package for my sons first birthday. Everyone raved about the food! The person setting up the trays had everything needed making it a breeze for us. We will definitely be catering again from seaqua.

My husband is in love with this deli and usually gets lunch here while at work. Every once in awhile he will bring us back dinner and the food is always excellent. I'm eating one of their chopped salads now and I never thought I could get so excited over a salad. Its amazing.

Food is amazing!! Mike was so generous to donate to Good Samaritan Hospital for nurses week. Everyone loved it. Was such a comfort.
Thank you again, the sandwiches were amazing. The spinach and bow tie pasta is to die for.

My coworker and I got the same thing today for lunch, we don't mind paying a service fee or a delivery fee but when you charge me 1.75 extra for getting lettuce instead of bread and then get one piece of… lettuce around wrap and my coworker gets a head of lettuce there's a problem. if I am paying extra I expect it to be worth it.

Sequa is normally on top and everybody orders from there at my job / Little Village school, but they recently screwed up not only the placement day of our surprise breakfast for our boss so then they kindly… offered us a free meal for the next morning but then I received a STAPLE in my iced tea... if I didn’t see it floating at the top of my drink I possibly would of drank and choked on it. I’m very ashamed when me and my fellow co workers have been ordering from sequa for years
