    It's been about a year since we have been to Deli George. The last time I was here I was really unimpressed with the apple gorgonzola salad. The apple slices were huge. There wasn't much in the lettuce department. For 14 bucks, there wasn't a lot of salad to it. My husband always gets the Boise Philly and they always do a good job. So, it's hard for me to say no when my husband wants to come here. We stopped in today for a late lunch. My husband ordered his normal. I decided to be different and ordered the black and blue brat. The picture they have on the brat in their menu looked so good so I had to get it. We grabbed a table and hung out till our food was ready. The food came out nice and hot. My husband's sandwich looked killer like always. Mine...... I wish I could have said the same. My brat came on a sandwich bun. It still looked good but I knew it was going to be a lot of breading to my brat. The brat as savory and peppery. It was good and had a good snap to it. It was a little hard to enjoy the brat since they drowned my bun with the ground mustard. It was really overwhelming. And for 2 bucks you can add sauerkraut. Don't bother adding it cause you barely get any. My husband's sandwich was good. The filet was tender and the cheese was nice and melty. Overall, it was an ok meal. I wish they would have told me about the bun being different. I would have ordered something else. I really want to like this place. They are local and I know the serve great did but I just haven't had that experience yet.

    Boise! came here on a snowy mushy friday around 1 pm and it wasn't too crowded. I was greeted by the cashier and the cozy vibe made me feel right at home. country music played on the speakers and i enjoyed all the local decor on the walls celebrating baseball teams and high school sports. I asked the cashier what he recommended and he said i should try the philly cheesesteak. I said that sounded great and sat at one of the booths. the food came out nice and hot and the cheesesteak came on this sort of garlic roll. it had provolone cheese, lettuce, steak and mayo. It was a solid sandwich but i have had better. I sort of wish it was a little more moist? or that it had a sauce? but it was still tasty. maybe could have had the bacon chicken ranch sandwich as an alternative not mad at all 3.5/5

    Full set up.

    So as you walk up to this cute little sandwich shop there is a Smoker just outside and it smells great! I did not opt for the Smoked Brisket however it looks great! There are several menu choices and the decisions are tough. These prices are higher than chain shops, and I feel like the meat portion was a bit small for a $20 sandwich. The flavor and freshness however stood up! The bread is fresh and tasty and the pickle bar is a great addition. Round out your meal with some gourmet chip selections and yes the Ice Tea is real Fresh!

    Great spot for a good tasting sandwich, I had the LAPD, which a pastrami with pickles and mustard on French roll. This is how LA does pastrami, the pastrami was tasty...I would've liked my sandwich to be a little more on the thicker side. LA pastrami sandwich are stacked and they're dipped in the au-jus. The Boise version wasn't bad at all. It's something I would have again. Service was great, and the music playing while I dined was jazzy and funky. Looking at the menu it appears there's a few more sandwiches I want to try. Next on my list is the Beef Dip. ***Flight Attendant approved***

    Friendly service, enjoyed the local Amber ale. Also the pickle bar. The pastrami sandwich was just a little drier on the bread -- and a little scarcer on the pastrami-- than I figured for $13.

    Another great sandwich! This time my husband and I split the Boise Cheese Steak - 5oz. filet mignon, provolone, grilled onions, mayo, and lettuce on a French roll. It was excellent! Steak was tender and juicy, bread was fresh and crispy and there was plenty of melted cheese. 5/5 once again.

    Not a wonderful sandwich at all. It looked pretty when given to me, but it was just got awkward fast, like a blind date. She's a sandwich, you like sandwiches and your friends thought you should be a perfect match. Instead you like sandwiches, and she's a sandwich but you find out she's from the wrong side of the tracks and hangs out with an unsavory crowd. Bread that's too hard, ham thats undesirable and cheap mayo. It was a match that just wasn't meant to be and soon you find yourself embarrassed to be seen with her in public. Like my first marriage; she looked good on the surface but in the end I found her just too shallow and expensive to want to maintain the relationship.

    Pilgrim's Pride. On stale slice whole grain bread. Very dry turkey, not a lot of cream cheese or cranberries.

    Absolutely not worth it!! Googled delis near by and looked at the prices online and this place was within the budget. Go in and order a pilgrim's pride which online a half sandwich was $8.49 and a full for $14.49. I tried to order the half sandwich but then they charged me for a whole. Either way the sandwich is completely over priced and incredibly dry and flavorless. You could make this sandwich for less and it would taste better especially based on what you get. The total was $15.68 and then they wanted a 20%-35% tip!!! So they are saying this sandwich should cost you $22.00, and it does not come with chips and a drink. So not worth it. Would not recommend this establishment. Better off going to a chain deli like Jimmy John's or Jersey Mike's. So disappointed and I feel like I wasted my hard earned money on this nasty tasting sandwich. Do not eat here!! Not worth it!

    I'm just a New York guy. My favorite movie is Taxi Driver. You get it. I have the credentials to tell you I know what a NY Style Ruben should taste like. And this one was great.

I just thought the name was very misleading and it would've been better to just call it a massaman curry sandwich. I really liked the spiced yam slices, but I felt like the peanut butter almost overpowered the yam sometimes. Could've been lighter on the PB. I ordered the combo meal which was supposed to be a 1/2 sandwich plus a side. If the sandwich portion I got was only a half, then the full size must be huge. I kind of suspect I got a full sandwich. I had the beet salad for my side. It was tasty and fresh, and also pretty sizeable. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic. The wait time for food was reasonable given that they seemed busy. The loft seating was nice.

He was very informative about where to go and places to check out in Boise. I ordered one of the local beers and their flagship meal, the Santa Maria Tri Tip Sandwich. As you can see by looking at the photos, the tri-tip was cooked to perfection. It had tomatoes, poblano, and chimichurri sauce on it to add to the flavors of the tri-tip. The bread consistency was great, not too soggy, and with a great crispy texture. I wish they had spread the tri-tip out more to make sure every bite was being celebrated. I also ordered the mac and cheese as the side per the instructions of the bartender, James. Let me say that was one of the best mac and cheeses that I have ever had. Truly amazing creamy texture and full of rich flavor. Everything melted in your mouth. Definitely worth it. I eventually ended up talking to a fellow bar sitter, and he ended up being the co-owner of the place, TJ. He also filled me in on the places to go and, most definitely, the places to travel to, to experience great beer. He was refreshing to talk to since most people don't have the passion for beer that we both represent. I would highly recommend this place for the staff that is there the solid pub style restaurant that they have created. Super easy and relaxed kinda of place.

Even the bun was soft yet held everything together perfectly, which is something a lot of places overlook. What really stood out was the attention to detail across the whole meal.

Inside has a lived-in, intimate feel, but it was pretty dark, so much that I wasn't sure they were actually open as I was opening the door. I had the French dip sandwich with a side of tomato basil soup. The sandwich was delicious and tasted homemade in the best way. The "meat" of the sandwich was seitan. I don't THINK it was a perfect meat replica (but I've never had a real French dip), but it was very flavourful. I loved the flavour and the thick cut of their bread, but it didn't have much structure and fell apart easily as I was eating which made the sandwich very messy. The tomato basil soup was a little different. It was slightly creamy but brothy and a little chunky - not a smooth puree. Again, it tasted great and was nice and light, which was a good contrast to the very rich sandwich. It was a little slow, especially considering they weren't that busy. I didn't really mind since I wasn't on a schedule, but this is something to be aware of - don't come here for a quick meal. Not cheap, but worth it for the quality.
