The Godfatha.
John P.

My friend and I decided to look for a new place for lunch and decided on Knickerbocker's Deli. The place was bustling during the lunch rush, but they were knocking out food to beat the band. The place had a relaxed feel to it with nice wooden tables all around. After ordering, we sat down and in under 10 minutes the food arrived. I had the "The Godfatha" sandwich. It has loads of pastrami, salami and pepper jack cheese with toppings really piled on. My friend ordered the "Mister Ed" sandwich, loaded with roast beef, grilled onions, portobello mushrooms, and provolone cheese. The sandwiches were incredibly generous. (see pictures below) and will definitely feed a large hungry person. Waste no time trying this delightful deli at your earliest. We give it to our highest rating.

The Godfatha, looks delicious, tastes better.

Okay, I might have just found my new favorite deli. Hear me out, I have a couple things to say about this place. First, I'm kicking myself that I didn't try this place sooner. I have probably drove by this area 5000 times the last few years. I have to admit, what stopped me was the poor commercial advertising and signage. "Must just be some small cafeteria in one of those corporate office looking buildings?" I would tell myself this every time I saw a tiny sign on the roundabout. Anyways, I workout at LIFETIME and something kept popping up on my local yelp feed. "Fine, I'll finally go check it out." After my workout I drove over to the relative area where I knew it was. I saw a tiny name on the standard boring signage out front. (Building Facing NorthWest) Parked in the guest lot and made my way to the back of the building. I would recommend parking in the back, but the lot was FULL. Not a far walk from the front door though. Second, their menu is HUGE! They have something for everyone: my picky kids, vegan, vegetarian, meat lovers, breakfast, coffee, burgers, hot and cold options. I bought two sandwiches to try and didn't "scratch the surface." I went in at 11am and it wasn't busy with the lunch rush yet, which I bet they most definitely have. I ordered The Godfatha, TO-GO, and it also came with a pickle, cookie, and a tasty Italian dipping dressing on the side. The sandwich was big and loaded with quality ingredients, I only ate half. Bread was thick and the perfect firmness. Now this next part will amaze you. I ate that half at 11am and it was fully loaded, minus the Italian dressing that comes on the side. I tried the other half 6 hours later having my reservations about it still being good. The sandwich was still excellent, no soggy bread corners or wilted veggies. That......does.....not.....happen with that type of sandwich. I got on yelp right away and wrote this. lol. 5 stars, I will be back with family.

The Godfatha and Reuben
Nate G.

We came to try out their pastrami offerings, including the Reuben and the Godfather. Both sandwiches were delicious. The Reuben had a perfect combo of ingredients, although I'd prefer less of the 1000 island dressing, which I'm sure they could accommodate next time. The godfather included other Italian deli meats as well and was a cold, fresh sandwich. Both delightful and a great option for pastrami lovers everywhere. All sandwiches come with a pickle and a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie. The cookie tasted better than I expected. The service was both friendly and prompt. We'll come back to try some other options.

Godfatha
Jared Y.

This was my first time eating at this location but I used to work in the research park near the UofU and I ate at that location regularly, so I was familiar with their menu. I got one of my favorite items, the Godfatha which is their souped up Italian sandwich. This sandwich is really great but there are two things that annoy me about it. The first is that I don't want to order it by actually saying "Godfatha" because I think my poor attempt at an Italian-American accent would embarrass everyone in the restaurant. Okay, now for the real one, they overstuff this thing and serve it basically open-faced. There is no way to eat this sandwich like a sandwich. Since Knickerbockers Deli are in business/office areas their primary clientele are professionals and office workers (but they still serve me despite the fact that I am neither) who are grabbing a bite to eat on their lunch. Who wants to spill a messy sandwich all over their shirt minutes before that all important post-lunch meeting? On this particular trip it seems like they picked out all the banana pepper butts (that's what I call the pieces with the stem on it) and put them on my sandwich. It would be nice if, as an employee is putting those on, they simply discarded those pieces because I assure you no one wants that part and anyone making a sandwich for their self would not use those pieces. The sandwich is extremely flavorful with top quality ingredients (minus the banana butts). Service is always very friendly. My one warning is that the messy food issue is not isolated to this one sandwich. Most of their more premium sandwiches and burgers seem to be made intentionally messy. Like you're gonna know you got the good stuff because you can see it right there on your shirt.

Club Sandwich

Work placed an order and I got the club sandwich. I wasn't expecting a lot. But the sandwich bread was soft and it was pretty stuffed! I saw the menu had a variety of hot and cooked sandwiches and tbh I will be back to try the other items

Lunch today at Knickerbockers Deli in South Jordan, Utah was outstanding! Really great sandwiches, generous portions, very nice service and great seating. My husband had the Godfatha and I had the Zucchini Philly. The sandwich came with a pickle and cookie! Both sandwiches were awesome! We definitely recommend!

Spinach veggie wrap with tomato basil soup. Cookie and a pickle.

This place is a little hidden gem It's a little hard to find, but they have plenty of signs directing you there thru the businesses. Staff is super friendly and nice. I had called three times in a row asking questions, and never got irritated, and was happy to answer any questions. Ordered the veggie wrap with a spinach tortilla. With a cup of tomato basil. Excellent. They even brought it curb side. Wish I would have had time to sit on their patio. Can't wait to return.

We came here for kind of a brunch on Father's Day. The wait wasn't too long and there was plenty of…read moreroom to sit and wait. From was I saw I feel like the restaurant was generally clean and in good shape. The menu has a lot of options in both sweet or savory breakfast foods. The pancakes and syrup were good. I had a Mediterranean omelet and it was massive, I was so shocked by the sheer size of it. It was good, I ordered thinking I like Mediterranean food in other situations so why not try it in an omelet. My husband enjoyed his food and my kids did too. It does take a bit more time than some other breakfast and their menu says that is due to items being made fresh so I can appreciate the effort to set expectations at a proper level. Our waitress did a great job and balanced checking in regularly without passing by too frequently.

A Solid Saturday Morning Stop Stumbled into this location…read morefor the first time on a Saturday morning and walked right in, which was a pleasant surprise. The crowd here feels very local, which I always take as a good sign. The vibe is casual and unpretentious. Staff was friendly, though not particularly attentive, something to keep in mind if you are in a hurry. Now, the pancakes. I went with the apple pancakes, and the moment they hit the table, the smell alone almost sold me. Warm cinnamon, sweet apple, the whole thing. They arrive as a generous stack and they are beautiful. That said, they are extremely sweet, more dessert than breakfast if I am being honest. If you have a serious sweet tooth, you will be in heaven. If you are like me and prefer something more balanced, just know what you are getting into. The menu description does not fully prepare you for the sugar level. Here is a tip: share a combo. Pairing the pancakes with eggs and bacon or sausage cuts through the sweetness and gives you a much more complete meal. I asked for crispy bacon and they nailed it, which honestly earns some serious points in my book. Portions are large and prices are fair for what you get. Best value is definitely in the combo options, even better if you share. The wait list is worth joining as you get close, just as a precaution on busier mornings. Three stars. A dependable, no-frills breakfast spot that does what it sets out to do. Not trying to reinvent the wheel, and it does not need to.
