Right next to Tasti D-Lite (go afterwards for desert; yay!), this is a great place to come for quasi-fresh 'salad' bar/deli stuff. I say 'quasi' fresh, because these deli places always leave something to be desired in that category (and are always pretty greasy/oily, etc).. This place though has a nice variety and their stuff actually *does* look reasonably fresh compared to other similar locations (e.g., le basket, on broadway). One great item that they have, which others don't, is fresh sushi, with a great sign next to it, saying, 'don't take the fish out of the sushi. We're watching you.' Plus, "Space Market" is a cool name. Go for the NYU student discount. :)

Their prices may be a bit high, but Space Market is one of the most notable delis in all of NYC. Their selection of quality products is astounding. They offer one of the largest selections of hot food of any deli or grocery store nearby. Plus, they have great Sushi (at least for a deli). Avoid lunch time on a weekday though, it's totally overwhelmed by all the NYU students.
