In search of a really good deli....

Simply Alisha's Avatar
I'm looking for a really good deli. The few years I have been here, I have had no luck finding one.

Besides the chains (Subway, Jasons, etc....) are there any other options?

I just want a really good sandwich. I would really like a mom and pop kind of place. Flexible on location.

Any suggestions?

Like Carl said, The Little Deli is top notch. They also serve great pizza. Tony will take care of you.

Closest decent deli is Kenny and Ziggys in Houston. Pity.

Now that you have had a sandwich, try the pizza!

Ohhh, you meant white bread and mayonnaise deli, not New York style deli.

Never mind!

Try Subway.

Well the owner is from New York and makes New York style pizza which I will try next time for sure. The slices looked really good.

I had roast beef and cheddar on sourdough, I also went into the IGA grocery store. It smelled like an old school grocery store not bad or anything there is just a smell. I bought some Shasta grape soda and had a great lunch.

Over the last few years, there's been a few movies filmed there due to the 50's look.
Last time they had a camera crew in a balloon tethered to the ground, brought out the whole neighborhood to gawk. It's a cool area.

Have you seen the dominos pizza commercial with someone named charlie thames? I saw the shooting of the commercial at the front counter and the Little Deli was still open for business! I kid you not!!

Little Deli is hard to beat. if you don't get pizza, the club sandwich is enough for two, and the cakes are amazing (and I do not have a sweet tooth). A whole pizza is just the best though, I gotta say. Mmmmm.
