Interesting place to check out. We stopped in on a Sunday at lunchtime. The place was reasonably busy, but we sat quickly, and our server came right over. You get 2 choices from the salad/pickle bar with your meal. They came out on a small plate, which was quite full. The server recommended the lamb stew because they don't have it too often. We ordered the stew, and when the server checked in to see how we liked it, we let her know there wasn't much lamb. So, she took it away and came back with another serving containing more lamb. Nice touch. The food and atmosphere are nice and the service was great. We'll be back again to check out more items off the menu. read more

I thought sure I'd leave this place a 5-star rating, and then again, not sure why I'm not leaving it 2-star. I'm rarely a complainer. However, my server was very slow, as other tables around us were seated several minutes after us and received their orders several minutes before us. Our order was Matza Ball soup and a pastrami sandwich. Nothing strange for a Jewish Deli at lunchtime. I asked the waitress if they are backed up? Anyway, the Matza Ball soup finally came out barely warm. We started to send it back but we were hungry. The sandwich was good. We asked for a piece of carrot cake to go. For us, it had twice as much icing as needed and needed walnuts or something added. We love Jewish delis and will try this place again. But if next time is like this time, it'll be our last time. read more

Oh my goodness! This restaurant has been on my "Places to Eat" list! Mr. Bill, the host was so nice immediately upon entering! Our waitress was Dorris, she was awesome! Helped us make decisions on what to eat. I got the Monday special: Spaghetti with garlic bread, a side (huge) house salad, and a couple items from the pickle bar (a must, my favorite was the pasta salad). My boyfriend got the buffalo chicken sandwich with a side on onion rings. Finished off with a slice of the chocolate silk pie! The vibe of the restaurant was nice and clean. Overall a 10/10 experience and I can't wait to go back because their menu is huge! read more

Big menu, many options, great bakery items, bar, service has always been outstanding. The menu will give just about anyone many options from hot dogs, to sandwiches to ethnic specialties to burgers. We've been going for many years. Before Covid-19 they had a serve yourself pickles, olives, salad type items bar but now you pick two and a server brings them to your table. You'll always find something you've not had before because their menu is full of options. read more

Don't sleep on the DB PICKLES BAKERY! They had sooo much to choose from! I will definitely be back for any pastries and cakes! Service was excellent too! There's not many places in Florida you can get a high quality cannoli cream cheesecake! This was excellent! Not overwhelmingly sweet! The cannoli crunch pieces in the middle were still crunchy on the second day! I look forward to trying more from here! read more

Nice, homey diner. The Italian Bakery is off the chain. A whole assortment of cakes, confections, and cookies. See my photos. We had a huge cheesesteak and split it. It came with a side we chose fries and also got a whirl at pickle bar. Server gets it for you which is fine. I had sweet and sour pickles and hubby had 3 bean salad. Yummy and huge. Dessert to go. Full bar open at 10:30 AM. BUSY Place. A + I recommend this diner eatery. Go Pickles! read more

This place was super cute. Menu was a bit large but overall easy to understand. The cucumber/onion pickle salad was my favorite and I took a jar Togo. Potatoes pancakes are a definite recommendation as well. Will deff come back again when in the area. I also have to give a huge shout out to my server (I think his name was Michael.. younger with dark short hair) he was excellent and his hospitality was above and beyond. Not just with us but all of the guests. He is deff an asset. Thanks again! read more

The plain pastrami was delicious!!!.I Loved this sandwich with the marble rye bread. Mush! Delicioso! I haven't had a sandwich in a long time--nevertheless a pastrami sandwich. Also, I must mention the star of this order as I could not avoid the cannoli at the window--as it called my name. I must say that cannoli was scrumptious-just so, that I purposely went back the next day and went back just for the cannoli. Service was not the best at both occasion. As the people up front were not attentive, or friendly for that matter---perhaps they were busy, but idc cuz the cannoli was slamming! When you go there's lots of sweets but the cannoli caught my eye and it called me out! Lol #sweetooth read more

I went here for the first time several days ago but forgot my review... I enjoyed my visit very much. Nice atmosphere and very friendly employees. Place is very clean as well. I had a BLT with macaroni salad.. Both where very good and my GF had stuffed cabbage and mashed potatoes which I had to sample and both were also very good. Everything came together nicely during my visit which is why I'm giving it five stars. BTW yes they have a pickle bar and a regular bar as well besides being a family restaurant. I recommend this establishment read more

Long time customer. For many months we have noticed the amount of food seems to be less and less, especially in the sandwiches. Tonight, the waitress did not get the order right and the croissant looked smashed, pressed maybe even old. We will be giving this restaurant a break! read more

Sad to see a place go downhill. Very poor service for a Saturday night. Usual top-notch hostess was missing. Substitute host no longer up to such a job. Waiter evidently went on break as soon as he took my order. Did not offer a selection from the pickle bar. Another server Finally brought my food. Waiter eventually showed back up. Never apologized for his absence. Food was good. But didn't stay for dessert. This was on 5/17/24. read more

One of our favorite restaurants. The food is always fantastic and huge portions!! Service is excellent too! We go there often

DB Pickles is, at least in my opinion, the best Jewish-style deli in central Florida. It is located on Nova Road in Ormond Beach (which is in the Daytona Beach area) and offers a lot of great items that you can find in the traditional deli restaurants up in the northeast, though a few items are safely absent, such as a potato knish. If you never had a potato knish, I would recommend if you ever seen one, order it. Think mashed potatoes wrapped in dough. I grew up having knishes with spicy brown mustard. Truly a bit of heaven here on earth. I ordered a Reuben and upgraded to the onion rings. This is a fantastic sandwich and has been my go-to here for years. Honestly, I cannot recall if I ever had anything else here. Maybe some day I will try their New Jersey-style ripper, which is an all-beef hot dog deep fried, but this Reuben is truly fantastic. DB Pickles brings me back to my homestate of New Jersey with every meal. It is definitely a great place to get a taste of the northeast down here in sunny Florida. If you find yourself in the Daytona Beach area, I definitely recommend seeking this place out. read more

There's so much going on here I admit my expectations were set extremely high after watching an episode of Triple D yesterday (Guy wasn't here but he was doing a similar type restaurant in a different city), I was really hungry for a pastrami and / or corned beef sandwich so when I opened the menu and saw the "Full Kosher Kombo" I was sold. A pound of fresh pastrami and corned beef on rye - well it definitely wasn't love at first bite, actually it was a big disappointment I should of asked if it was house made so it's on me, I was imagining house prepared hand sliced meats, I think boar's head deli slice luncheon meats would compete well, anyway all was not lost on this visit. Our server Sabrina was an exceptional server she was attentive enough and ensured we had everything we needed, the kind of server you hope you get. We started with a few items from the pickle bar - half-sours, dills and bread and butter pickles these were absolutely delicious and a great pairing with any meal - we also ordered the "today's special" a ginormous Indiana Style Pork Tenderloin Sandwich this was the real deal ( the size of this tenderloin was unbelievable) it was not only a giant version of this epic sandwich from the mid-west it was hand-breaded and cooked to perfection. I quickly abandoned my sandwich for a portion of this gigantic slice of tenderizer pork, forget the bread it was a meal all by itself. The restaurant was very clean and organized the entire staff was friendly and professional and the prices are very reasonable - the bakery counter was impressive as well, although we didn't par-take in any of the sweets on display I was tempted (maybe next time). Our original intention when planning to dine here was for a late breakfast - there was a sign on the door upon arriving stating breakfast service ends at 11:00 AM on the weekends and totally eliminated on weekdays (I suspect staffing issues could be the reason since there are "hiring signs" on practically every business in town (thanks to the ongoing government incentives not to work but that's another failed plan). I love supporting local businesses and I understand every experience can't be exceptional unfortunately, I definitely plan to return for one of their infamous breakfast omelettes... read more

Stopped in to satisfy my sweet tooth and I remembered all the great baked goods I saw in their showcase. Purchased several items for the household to share, spent quite a bit on them (but oh well, it's what you do on vacation) and will NEVER do it again! Cakes tasted like box mix quality, black and white cookies had baking soda balls in them, which is disgusting to bite into, and you could tell that things were far from fresh. Stick to the sandwiches at this restaurant. read more

Always a favorite, kids eat free Sundays with a paying adult.

Went here for the first time with my family. If you enjoy deli's this is a great place. It goes beyond sandwiches! I had the Cuban. The half was a perfect portion. I ordered potato salad with it, but after getting something from the pickle bar and the sandwich I could only eat about half the potato salad. The kids plates were $5.99 and could have fed an adult. My husband got corned beef and cabbage. It was huge!!! The taste was great! Because it was my birthday we ordered a dessert! I ordered a cannoli which was beyond delicious. The only down side is, it was incredibly hot in there. They needed to turn up the air desperately. At 80 degrees outside it was cooler. read more

I was hungry for a ruben sandwich. One of those cravings. Db pickles came up on the search. This is a deli and bakery. Right when you get in is the bakery display cases Assorted cookies in one. Cakes and pastries in another. And it all looked wonderful. Omg they have a pickle bar. I am in heaven. 2 bowls of assorted items from the pickle bar with my Ruben. My ruben came out hot and stuffed. Definitely a "sink" sandwich. Tasty and very good. Sides you could get are potato salad, Pasta salad, Cole slaw. Or get onion rings or fries for an up charge. With a trip to the pickle bar. Candyce got the Philadelphia. Shaved prime rib sandwich on a hogie bun. With sweet potato fries. It is a great restaurant with quite a selection on the menu. read more

Used to be one of our families favorites. We have been going since the month they opened and always sang its praises, but NO more. We had family in town and they wanted to visit the restaurant they remembered from their last visit, however things have certainly changed. Never got past the hostess station, we had called for 2 days letting them know we had 9 people coming in and were told we might have to wait 20 minutes or so which would have been fine. When we got there the hostess didn't want to deal with us so she said she would get the manager, "you are his problem!" Soon an angry greasy balding man stormed out of the kitchen and said he wouldn't seat us. I shot back not reaching his bad and rude attitude mentioning the owner, and asked about Pete the owner he was insulting and rude and screamed through the restaurant "Pete's cancer is back and he's dying." I got so upset I left and my wife told me he said he was the CEO and CFO and he wanted us to leave. NOTHING could get us back to this careening downhill rudely staffed and unmanaged restaurant.

Not the first time we ate lunch here, and definitely not going to be the last time. Food is phenomenal and serving size is also very robust. The service was pretty awesome as well. Our server, Shannon has a real great personality and very attentive. When we were there, it was a little bit of a late lunch, and the place was pretty crowded. It reminds me of an old New York style kosher deli. When you pass that awesome Bakery counter you already have your mind set on dessert lol read more

We went for the Tuesday special, prime rib. I have had prime rib this on this vacation at 4 different locations. This one was the worst. It was very grissly and fatty. Three of us had it and all the same. But the service was great, a very good waitress. Do not plan to return. We should have sent it all back! read more

My family and I ate there last week and it was amazing. Our waitress, Sabrina, was perfect. I had the Classico, it was one of the best subs I ever had, my daughter had corned beef, it was a huge portion. She took a lot home. Everything was great. Can't wait to go back again and will be telling everyone how good it was. Thanks. read more

Wanted to eat here. Hostess had zero sense of urgency to help 4 parties waiting for tables. Answered phone several times before assisting customers standing directly in front of her waiting for eye contact. We sat a bar after confirming it was available for full service including food. Waited 10 minutes and no one ever came to bar area. Would have liked to have talked to a manager before I walked out disappointed, but if there was one in the restaurant they definitely weren't visible. read more

The strawberry & Walnut salad is one of my favorite menu items. We have not had any bad experiences - the servers are all courteous and accommodating.

They recently added a little pub area that is usually bustling with people too... read more

Here's how DB Pickles stacked up 10 Pts. Okay let me just start with saying after talking to the owner who came to our table everything they make is prepared on site from a real Scratch Kitchen. Nothing is pre-made/ pre-processed or frozen. The quality of the food the taste of each and every item it is revealed. Oh you must try the broccoli salad I hate broccoli and I bought a pound to go that's how good it is I very rarely give a 10 out of 10 and this place deserves every point. How much did I mention the service was perfect All My Yelps breakdown like this; 2.5 pts =Service, 2.5 pts =Clean 2.5 pts =Food, 2.5 pts =Swagg Grand total= 10 points read more

I've been here before when the pickle bar was still open, let's just say things have changed. Now you can order one item from the pickle bar and you get charged for anything else. This would be fine with me but now the macaroni salad tastes so bad I wouldn't eat it for free, my mom said the pickles were fine. I'm not sure about the bean salad if they changed up that recipe too but the best thing about this place was the pickle bar and now it's doesn't taste the same. I got the pastrami on a Kaiser roll it, I can't say it was bad but it wasn't good. I have no idea how you can screw up pastrami to make things worse they brought my fries out late and they tasted like saw dust, my moms words not mine and she speaks broken English. She got the burger and she said it was fine. No one asked how our food was. By the time the waitress got back to our table with a refill on our sodas I had been waving my credit in the air. All the other staff saw me and finally some other waitress came over and offered us boxes. It wasn't busy in there and several servers were just standing around. That being said the bakery still looked good with all the beautiful cakes & cookies and they have expanded the bar area. The sesame seed cookies & the rainbow cookies we were looking for weren't in the cookie case and no one bothered to walk up to the counter to help us while we were standing in-front of it. It seems like the service and the food have all gone down hill. This is such a shame because it really was a special place. I hope they can bring it back up to where it was and make the food flavorful again. The hostess was really friendly & nice. The bathroom was clean. If you see my picture and previous pics from other customers you can see that our food looks nothing like anybody else's food like it was from an entirely different restaurant. read more
