Elaine's Avenue M Deli

New York has 2,468 delicatessens on file, and the gap between contact methods is wide: 2,309 list a phone number while 1,137 list a website. Counter service does not need a booking page, so the missing websites say less about the shop than they would in another category.

ZIP 10019 leads the count with 36; 11385 has 22; 10016 has 20. Where a deli has no website, the phone number and the address are the entire record we hold, which makes a call the only way to check hours before a trip. Anything marked Sponsored is a paid placement and carries the label. Own the counter? Claim the listing and set the hours yourself.
