M.H. Fruit Corporation

Overall solid corner store. Love that they have fresh produce and a generally diverse range of foods. This is our go to for all the right reasons. The $ 10 card min can be a little annoying, but that’s my only complaint. It seems clean and I don’t think I’ve ever seen it closed!

Boarshead meats on the sandwiches, pretty good prices.
Really nice people working the counter.
Amazing selection of fresh fruit for good prices.
Hard to go wrong.

Just got back from here and couldn’t remember the name; finally searched for it via Unilocal and was surprised to see the mild rating, so I decided to pop my reviewer cherry and add my positive review.
I love this place! Though sometimes they don’t have what I want, they have enough selection to satisfy and it’s open 24 hours and far cheaper in price from the other 24-​hour deli around the corner on Spring and Thompson.
The people are nice (especially the nighttime guy who counts ONE MILLION DOLLA! and sometimes throws in freebies!), fair, and efficient.
I live just around the corner and have stumbled into this store on many a drunken night, and I have especially used it as an emergency option when I’m sick and don’t have enough energy to trek to a full-​on grocery store.
The prices are high, but if you’re aiming for convenience over cost, it’s a fair trade-​off.

This place is overpriced. Unfortunate because they have the best beer selection in the area I keep coming back. However to get the best price you need to be ready and willing to argue for it.
I am cool with that on an initial selection or two. However if I frequent you often and your prices fluctuate several dollars than I suspect that I am probably being taken advantage of.

FIve stars for what it is. The place has everything you’d expect a corner store to have. They actually don’t particularly lack in anything so that’s about as good as it gets. I work near by sometimes I’ll come for their deli if I want a simple deli sandwich. No complaints there either.
The real delight of the store is the old Asian man that sometimes works the register. He has a great sense of humor and jokes with the customers. But not in an annoying way. If I give him cash he counts my change very enthusiastically ONE — TWO — THREE — FOUR MILLION DOLLAR! One time I came in a little upset probably because some high heels woman was walking too slow in front of me with her rat on a leash in tow. He must have noticed because he hands me a candy and says CHOCOLATE? I ask how much and he goes FIFTY MILLION DOLLAR. But he really gave it to me for free and I was happy.

One of the better delis in the immediate SoHo area. While M.H. Fruit Corporation (catchy name!) lacks some of the assortment of other delis in the area (i.e. D&D, etc.), the sandwiches are fresh /​tasty and the prices are generally fair.
