Is Deli-icious closed?

They were closed when I drove by over the weekend, then on President's Day, and again yesterday (Tuesday); I walked by this morning, and the coolers inside are all empty.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were, they'd had a massive decline in quality when they underwent new ownership. They went from being one of my favorites (continuing from the days when they were Nick's Roast Beef) to Never Order Under Any Circumstances.

On a brighter note, for those who were dismayed when City Slicker changed their pizza recipe, they've gone back to the original!

When did that change happen?

Maybe two years ago? Or are you asking about the City Slicker pizza?

Was asking about Deli-Icious. Thanks! That does explain the last experience I had there.

When did City Slicker change their pizza recipe back? I'm glad to hear they have.

They did? Hooray! As of when? I ordered from them some time fairly recently and got the same not-the-old-crust crust.

I think about a week ago? I got a calzone this past weekend and it was original-style.

Their quality has been extremely spotty -- some days they're terrific, other days they get everything wrong. The days where things were wrong were more frequent than the terrific ones, though. I'd given up on even attempting ordering delivery, knowing that it'd inevitably be at least an hour late. The crew making sandwiches was completely different than usual when I last went in to pick up food (about three weeks ago).

Deli-icious's sign is blacked out and the windows are papered over.   The paper on the door says CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS.

And as of mid-day Saturday, one of the windows had been smashed in.

I guess someone was desperate for one last Honeycomb Hideout melt.

I just noticed that their page on Yelp now has a notice stating:
Deli-icious is temporarily closed. Scheduled to reopen on May 1, 2017.
