New year, new tings.
And you already know I had to start 2026 the right way…. with food.
So for my first review of the year, I decided to try someplace brand new: Lux Deli in Port Lucaya. This cute little deli opened its doors just last month, and under new management, they completely refreshed the space, turning it into something that feels homey, comfy, and easy on the soul.
The soft yellow walls and décor makes you feel like you just stepped into your favorite auntie kitchen (the one where everything smell good and you already know you about to eat nice)!
Let’s Talk Menu: Their menu is small but mighty and I actually love that.
You’ve got:
- Breakfast classics like pancakes and omelettes
- Brunch favorites like avocado toast and quiche
- Then they slide right into lunch with sandwiches, paninis, salads, and soups
I enjoy menus like this because when it’s not overloaded, you can really taste the intention behind every item.
They also offer flavored waters and teas (like lemon water and honey tea) perfect if you not in the mood for anything too sweet.
When I arrived it wasn’t too busy, so I placed my order, sat down, and before I could even get comfortable…
Boom. Food out. Hot and ready.
Within 10 minutes or less.
That’s a big deal for me, because that makes Lux Deli a solid option for a quick work-lunch without stressing about your food coming when your lunch break almost done.
Given that I was still in the holiday spirit, I ordered the Turkey Cranberry Panini with a side of pasta salad, plus it came with chips and a honey tea.
And listen… The last time I had a really good panini was about two years ago but this one….
Delightful.
Real turkey breast, carved straight from the bird (not that store-bought deli meat nonsense) paired with cranberry, pepper jack cheese, and spicy mayo that set the whole thing off.
The pasta salad had more of an Italian-style spice profile, not your usual Bahamian creamy pasta salad, and the flavors blended perfectly with the kick from the panini.
The meal was filling, the service was smooth, and the entire bill (with the extra pasta salad and honey tea) only $20.
No complaints. None. This was truly a beautiful way to start 2026 — calm, comfy, positive energy all around.
If you’re in the Port Lucaya area and looking for something good, fresh, and satisfying, go check out Lux Deli.
They’re open Monday–Saturday, 9am–3pm.
And trust, next time I going for their special “Uncle Justin” sandwich, which everybody telling me is VERY good.
Stay tuned… this year already tasting nice.
