Delmonte-Smelson Jewelers - Uniondale (NY)

1 /5 Caitlin S: This business is an absolute scam. After over a decade of loyal patronage — my father spent thousands here on what we were led to believe were genuine diamonds and gold — we recently discovered that a “diamond” bracelet, costing several thousand dollars, is cubic zirconia. Not a single real stone. Photos of the jeweler they source from and then the Delmonte website of the bracelet included in this review. It’s infuriating, insulting, and downright fraudulent. Either this jeweler is completely incompetent or they’re deliberately deceiving long-time customers. Neither explanation is acceptable. If you’ve purchased anything from here in the past, I strongly urge you to get your pieces independently assessed. Do not give this business another dime. They don’t deserve it.

5 /5 Joshua Katz: Customer service is king at Delmonte-Smelson Jewelers. Made an appointment before coming in and told them what we were looking for. When we arrived they brought out a ton of options, all of them at incredibly reasonable prices. Brought out a more expensive chain but didnt try to push us into buying it. Let us make the best decision and leave with a great item for a great price. Phil is extremely friendly and will treat you like you are part of his family. Would definitely recommend them to all of my friends.

5 /5 William J Stevens V: The folks at Delmonte-Smelson have become dear friends through these challenging pandemic times. Looking back to October 2019 when I went in to buy my now wife an engagement ring, I was met with personalized, concierge-like care and attention. I had a great interaction with one of the employees Stephanie who helped me narrow down what style I was looking for, and then a one-on-one meeting with the owner Phil for a full education on diamond clarity, color, and pricepoint to find the absolute perfect stone for my soon to be-betrothed. She said yes, and we were off to planning a wedding! Despite all the craziness weve faced as a community, unknown hardships set unto small businesses as well, the Delmonte-Smelson team managed to come through in the midst of it all. Phil again helped find the perfect band for my wife, and (without my knowledge) the exact ring I wanted, too! They even custom ordered and rush delivered it to help us out. My wife and I cannot highly recommend these folks enough. The integrity with which they operate is outstanding. It can be intimidating going in to a jeweler knowing nothing of the industry, but I was met with warmth that put me at ease. I dont see myself going anywhere else for future anniversaries or family gifts.

5 /5 Joe Pawluk: I got my fiancees custom made engagement ring at Delmonte-Smelson and I couldnt be happier. They took a picture and made it into reality. Mike and his team were great, giving me a real education about what I was purchasing, and working with my ideas and budget. Great experience overall.
