Derby Deli — Restaurant in Springfield

I love the Derby Deli! The menu has a variety of items, the portions have always been great, and I love having the option to order wine at the counter. The wine selection is what's available in the kiosk, but they add a level of hospitality by bringing the wine to you at the table rather than you having to risk losing a coveted table by getting the glass yourself.

I've only ever ordered one of their massive salads, but I've visited with friends and every one of their orders looked amazing.

Once when the front dining room was full during a packed lunch rush, we were invited to sit at a table in a back room and it was such a fun experience the atmosphere added a level of enjoyment and it was quieter so we were really able to enjoy our conversation.

I especially love that I have never once felt rushed. I feel like I'm back in Europe when we get to draw out a leisurely lunch.

P.S., If you don't order a piece of cake to enjoy in house, order it to go and enjoy it on your couch later. You will...

Food was excellent. Very rude, arrogant wait staff. The cashier taking food orders barked at people to line up single file against the wall, then accused me of taking extra chips. I had to remind him they came with my orders. When my granddaughter asked for a to-go box they barked at her to go back to her table. Had to go to the liquor counter for a bag for our to go boxes and the owner stood in front of one of the employees until she moved for him. When I asked for a bag I was told “I don’t have one.” No attempt to get me one. The Reuben was good. Kids pizza was nasty. I won’t give them my hard earned cash again. Sorry…your rudeness lost my business. Attitude makes a big difference. I recommend a little humility. Won’t spend my money or time on people who don’t appreciate my business and think I’m privileged to be in...

Over priced food&wine but not bad taste definitely a weird/hostile vibe that should not be for a wine spot- seemed to be an altercation before I went in. The workers are saying don’t let this man back in, once i heard that i was kinda scared and took my food to go…. After I went across the street to change outta my work attire because i am on the road to Kansas City- i see the owner (i assume) taking pictures of me changing!! Felt very uncomfortable (again) so i asked him if he did driving by and he said no (which is weird because i saw him lol) i think they were a little on edge from the instance before…. Hope this doesn’t happen to...
