    In a time when we can order everything online and have it delivered to our front doors, this place is a breath of fresh air and step into the days when knowing your customers was something every small business owner knew.

    The imported foods from Italy are supreme. The seafood salad is full of flavor. It's my weekly place to stop for sausage and lunch meats.

    LOVE this place. And the staff too.

    Six years ago my wife and I moved to St. John from Bridgeport Chicago.  Over the years I’ve told my wife that the area needs an Italian deli (disclosure: were not Italian). I randomly stopped at Tony’s (on a Saturday) while driving by their location, ordered a few sammys to-go that were GREAT.


    I’ve been back a few times now and they don’t seem to ever disappoint.  The sammy’s, staff, cleanliness, Tony are all A+.  Check em out!

    We stopped in for sandwiches and were pleasantly surprised with the homemade Italian pastas and sauces!  We bought the stuffed shells and goat cheese ravioli. Yum Yum Yum!  The Vodka sauce is out of this world!!!  Can’t wait to try the Other two sauces we bought- Roasted Artichoke and Nonna’s Gravy!


    Great selection of cheeses, meats and cannolis!!!  Looking forward to Tony’s Wine Cellar!


    BTW- the sandwiches were fantastic!  Meatball sub was best I’ve ever had!

    Finally made it in to Tony’s for the first time. Every worker in there was super nice and the deli itself is one of the cleanest places I’ve been in in a long time!! I got the diavolo panini and a bunch of other meat and cheeses and everything is as good as it gets! I also had my 2 year old son with me and Tony came right up to him and gave him a cookie And talked to him while we waited. I really hope Tony’s remains in our community for years to come and I highly recommend it!!

    I absolutely love this place, I have tried everyone of the sandwiches here and can never decide which one I love the best they are all so good. The staff here are amazing and friendly. I ordered 10 lbs of sausage back at Christmas time and it was an absolute favorite.  I can only wish tony and the staff nothing but the best of luck with their business and I will be a forever customer

    Work at the school nearby. Stopped in for lunch and grabbed an antipasto salad. It was AMAZING. Fresh mozzarella, true pepperoni, grape tomatoes, kalamata olives and homemade Italian dressing, it was to die for. The staff was extremely friendly, and you can tell they truly care about forming relationships with their customers. I will spread the good word and definitely return.

    Great atmosphere and even greater food! We got paninis and salads. While we were in there, Tony was making a pizza and shared it with us for free. Tony’s pizza was delicious! They have a great selection of meats, cheeses, and take-home pastas. 10/10 would recommend stopping in for a bite to eat or to grab stuff to make for dinner. And you never know, maybe Tony will share his pizza with you!

    Finally a deli in Dyer that we can be proud of!


    The quality of the sandwiches, deli meat, sauces and oils is what you would expect from an authentic and upscale, yet reasonably priced deli.


    Their sandwiches are freshly made with just the right amount of meat that will leave you satisfied and wanting to visit again quickly.


    Their soup's are all freshly made daily with only the finest ingredients resulting in a soup better than your grandmother ever made.


    The cannoli's will have you sneaking back to the fridge for another one before your spouse or children beat you to it.


    Do yourself a favor and stop over!


    Note: I have no connection to this business in any way shape or form. This is just my honest opinion after a few visits over a few weeks.

    WOW !!!!  what a nice place.  From the time I stepped foot into Tony's Deli  I heard the great sound of music and  seen all the nice products  I knew this was a place for me. Felt so very welcomed by all the staff. Once I came around the aisle and in front of the deli counter wanted a little of everything.  Counter was very well stocked.  Purchased a few subs (great) Italian sausage (delicious) pepperoni, potatoes salad and of course had to try the fresh cannoli's for dessert. I am certain this will be a regular stop for me. Wishing Tony's Italian Deli the best and keep up the good work.  Customers will be back for the excellent product/service.

    Tonys deli and his crew is the real deal. I ordered  2 charcuterie platters and my friends and family loved it. I also got some specialty items like garlic olive oil, red pepper olive oil and cookies. Amazing! Everything is so clean and so fresh if you want a NWI Italian experience then don't go far go to Tony's and you will be so happy by far.


    Thank you so much Tony you made us a great Father's day BBQ.

    I was so very excited when this place opened! I love the fact that it is family owned, and when you walk into the store it is clean as a whistle. I tried my first sandwich, and it was excellent, but I thought it could have used a little more meat and cheese. I will most definately be back, and eager to try more. Great place and friendly staff!
