The counter

Nothing sits pre-sliced

Ham, turkey, roast beef, pastrami, salami — all Boar’s Head, all cut when you order it. Thin, thick or shaved is your call, and we’ll hand you a slice to check.

The kitchen

Salads made here, by the pound

Pasta, tuna, eggplant & mozzarella, chicken & peppers, three bean, cole slaw. Made in the back, priced by the pound, usually gone by the afternoon.

The trays

Italian, the way this block eats

Chicken parm, eggplant parm, sausage and peppers, and party heroes built to feed a room. Call it in the day before and it’s ready when you are.

Since 1988

The block never stopped calling it Geronimo’s

Anthony DiGirolamo — Geronimo to everyone on Philip Avenue — opened this deli in 1988 and ran it for nearly thirty years. He’s gone, the sign came down for a while, and people kept giving directions by it anyway. So we put it back up.
