Turkey veggie sandwich
Matthew R.

The food is very fresh and well prepared. Portions aren't huge, but a good price. Bread appears to be freshly baked onsite. Staff is very friendly and pleasant. I had the turkey veggie which was very good. Desserts are good.

Well made simple sandwiches, paired with fantastic desert bars. Homemade, quality sandwich bread and sub bread around a set of standard sandwich fillings. Think Subway, but much fresher bread and ingredients. For example, the egg salad sandwich was wonderfully light. You can choose from Magic Sauce or Secret Sauce, both subtly good. But if you go, you have to pair your sandwich with a bar. The carmel bars are a must. When you reach for a desert bar after Christmas dinner, what you hope for is a bar as good as the Grinder Deli's caramel bar. You're usually disappointed by the bar after Christmas, but the bar at Grinders will leave you smiling all afternoon.

One of the few places in Austin that actually lives up to the hype. This place is great! The sandwiches are fresh and taste incredible. The secret sauce is very good. I always get the grinder sub and double the meat. The only reason this deli does not get five stars is no debit, all cash or check. Lame. Other than that and the long wait which I don't mind, awesome place to get lunch!

Stopped in with a couple friends for lunch. We all got the grinder and were not disappointed. Fresh, soft homemade bread was great.

Sue is so sweet. It was my first time here and loved it. Be sure to get the "secret sauce". Oh and finish it off with a Carmel Bar.

Great joint! Quick, friendly service for lunch (no dinner served). No-nonsense menu. You MUST try the Carmel Bars!

Amazing!!! Such tasty sandwiches & salad for lunch. We had the Granny - turkey with sliced Granny…read moreSmith apples on sourdough hoagie - and the Portside - thinly sliced chicken breast with avocado, lettuce & tomatoes on sourdough sandwich bread - with a side of broccoli salad (traditional Iowa potluck!). And a huge triple chocolate hot mess caramel fudge brownie. Food you would make for yourself, but you're on vacation! Staff is so welcoming & efficient. Don't be intimidated by the long line - enjoy chatting with those around you. A definite return visit is called for.

This place has been open for about 25 years and I wish I had known it when I lived in the area. We…read morestopped through and ordered four sandwiches and a couple salads. All was made to order and the service was good. Definitely a local place. LOTS of great options in the menu and was difficult to decide. I had the chance to taste each of the four sandwiches and all were good - but only one of them was amazing. The other three were still very good and unique... but not as over the top as the The Dill (I think it was). I would easily recommend this place and plan to go back the next time I'm in town. In addition, this isn't a sit down place - you will need to leave with your drop What I could tell. There were some tables in the alley... but the lake is a close walk for a good view while eating. Finding this place was a pleasant surprise. Support local!
