Wise Guys Deli - Smithfield — Restaurant in Smithfield

I'm a fan of subs and pizza, and have been curious about Wise Guys as I've been seeing locations opening nearby more and more frequently. I started wondering how good they might be. The answer? Perfectly adequate.

The location is a pretty basic set-up. It doesn't have much for character, but I was just stopping in for takeaway, so that didn't bother me much.

The menu is extensive with sandwiches with "fun" names related to gangsters and such. I really have a limit of finding sandwiches with "fun" names - it just gets frustrating to try to read the menu and sort what sandwich is what. Most sandwich places that do this whole "Named Sandwiches" thing have big, legible signs with descriptions. Here? It is easier to just grab a menu or better - know what you want before you walk in.

I ended up ordering the .38 Special - pastrami and hamburg with chipotle aoli, caramelized onions, and cheese - I think there was cheese.

The bread was nice and the sandwich filling was good, but it felt like there was something missing. I wanted some kind of balance in the sandwich or maybe just more filling.

Overall? It was okay. There are lots of good, local places for subs and pizza, and lots of them do what Wise Guys does either as well or better. The food isn't bad at all - it just didn't stand out from a crowd of similar food.

Would I go back?

If I was near a location that wasn't near another place with the same food and I wanted a sub? I'd probably stop in. I'm curious about their pizza...

But overall? Average, and there is nothing...

I was pleased by the greeting the woman that answered the phone was very nice when I went to pick up my order the gentleman that made the order was nice. However, once I left and I opened up my wrap, I had ordered a pastrami, Swiss and mustard sandwich. I also ordered a peppers in sausage wrap with provolone and a slice of cheesecake into drinks which came to almost $40. Which is fine because usually when you go to the Wise guys, the sandwiches are humongous. However, my rap was basically the rap not knows the first rap I’m going to take a picture and show it very disappointed. I will never go back again, because when I did call and Voice, my complaint, the gentleman Was like well. Every wise guys is different I understand every store is different independently owned. However, you have a structure of how these businesses run that’s like saying Dunkin’ Donuts makes all their coffees different. The pricing might be different but the product is the same as uniform horrible, horrible horrible I didn’t even let him finish. I was like thank you for your time. I will not be coming back and I meant that I did not if you want the food for the money you’re paying for it I suggest you go to one of...

Moving to Smithfield three years ago was a blessing in more ways than one. Among the many pleasant surprises was discovering our new favorite (etc) pizza destination - Wise Guys . This little gem has quickly become a cornerstone of our culinary indulgences, and trust me when I say, their offerings are worth every bite.
