An absolute elite deli shop! This spot has been on my radar for a while, and I finally had the chance to drop in on a Friday afternoon. The first sign of a top-tier deli: a long line paired with fast service. The crew behind the counter was hustling to get everyone their subs in a timely manner, and I was extremely happy with the service. For the sandwich, I went with the classic cold Italian sub, and it is easily in my top three of all time. After driving back to the San Fernando Valley--about a 40-minute trek with traffic--the bread was still firm and not soggy at all. The sub was bursting with flavor from the oil and honey mustard, and the pickles added a great touch of crunch. It paired perfectly with my all-time favorite Miss Vickie's Jalapeño chips. Overall, an easy 10/10. I will definitely be back whenever I'm in the area! read more

Mike's Deli is a LA classic. I've lived here all my life and this was my first ever visit. This deli absolutely lives up to the hype! Expect a line when you arrive but the staff moves pretty quickly. You order at the counter and once your order is ready you pay upon pick up along with any items you picked up from the store. They had plenty of drink and chips options as well as desserts! It's take out only, so there is no area to sit and dine in. I am sensitive to gluten so I opted for one of their salads. The man taking my order recommended the Boss Salad and I went with that with a Cesar dressing. It was fire! The chicken was abundant and the "boss sauce" they used on it was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. The portion size is huge! This could be 2 or 3 servings for sure. Overall, my experience was great and I will absolutely be back! read more

Glad to see this classic still standing strong! Very nostalgic, I used to come here after school and get sammiches for dinner. The service was flawless. The ambiance is that of a deli meets a corner store/bodega. Hella options from the proteins, cheeses, sides and drinks. read more

I've been to Mike's once before and my experience was great previously. Even this current time the food was great and very tasty, however this was an unforgivable experience as in today's boss chicken salad I found a literal metal nail in my food. I discovered it after having bit down on something hard in which I immediately knew was not anything edible. Thankfully I didn't bite down hard enough to cause any injury. Their food's great, but this was unexplainable. read more

I love the lettuce wraps at Mikes. Been eating at Mikes in between the downtown and slauson location for probably almost 10 years now. The combinations are endless and the meats are fantastic. The lettuce wraps are HUGE and so filling. I love the crunch of the lettuce. They're well wrapped and don't fall apart. They hold up like a regular sandwich. Mikes is a classic for a reason! read more

I wish this location delivered. The place is clean, and the staff is friendly. I ordered the Chicken Salad sandwich on Squaw bread. It's not the typical Chicken Salad sandwich; the chicken is chopped rather than shredded. The sandwich was good, but not what I expected. Next time, I will get the tuna. read more

I've been on an epic search for an East Coast-style deli. After living in NYC and moving back to Los Angeles, I've learned that LA folks are not exactly big sandwich people. Most establishments offer limited bread or toasting options, a single sad mustard, minimal spicy peppers, and are stingy with the meat. Enter Mike's Deli, where I finally found a true NYC bodega turkey and Swiss (my go-to); this sandwich is thicc in all the right ways. It's definitely more grab-and-go ambiance as there is no seating, but it's practical and the service was great. My sandwich was less than $14, lower than the average I've found in LA. The parking lot is unfortunately pretty small, so I sometimes park on the east side of the Home Depot lot and walk over... but don't tell anyone I said that. read more

I ordered a club sandwich with no bacon and Johnny proceeded to argue with me about it instead of apologizing he first tried to correct me and say it didn't come with it then said my sandwich did have bacon. Also ordered the mail man w regular mustard they still put honey mustard and made no apologies and threw the sandwich down. I would have been fine with my money back the cook was mad he had to remake it and tried to tell me both half's had bacon. Made no apologies for not putting regular mustard on the mail man sandwich. I will NEVER COME BACK HERE 0 stars read more

The food is good but it's pricey. Then after charging me almost $18 they shorted me a penny. The cashier said we are short on change so your change is shorted a penny. I was too embarrassed to argue. read more

Not surprised this place is always slammed with business, and has a very high review score. Came here frequently when worked nearby years ago, and just revisited recently - the quality and value is just superb. I got a Sweet Thing - Cold sandwich with honey turkey and honey ham, and a few veggie modifications on french bread. Large, delicious and satisfying; enjoyed it over the course of two meals. Also got some curly fries with buffalo sauce/toppings which were a little bit soggy but the sauce was so good, I didn't care. When I came here regularly, the salads were reliably fresh and delicious, with generous topping portions. It's worth the parking battle. Props to the highly efficient team for consistently creating deliciousness! read more

Mike's Deli - My belly very happy!!! - Delis Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been coming here for years. I've only ordered their sandwiches, but I'm sure the other food is just as tasty. The parking lot sucks for the amount of traffic they receive, but the food is food enough to find a park, walk down the street a little bit and make it happen. Staff are always friendly and attentive. Even though they can get crowded, they have a good amount of staff and do their best to get you out of there as quickly as they can. This is a pick up only joint. No seating inside. Huge variety of food items, snacks, chips, beverages, whatever you desire. While the cost of everything is up, I appreciate that they still give you a good amount of meat on your sandwich. Sandwiches have consistently been a 10/10 for me! read more

Mike's Deli - Classic Club - Delis Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Just came here for the first time but it won't be my last. This deli is surprisingly much bigger than I thought. Their selection of chips and drinks rivals that of any 711 or convenience store. The staff here are friendly and incredibly hardworking, especially Miette and Mike himself. Miette, you have such a genuinely positive and helpful attitude. The sandwiches are piled high with Boar's Head meat, which is what you want in a deli sandwich. So much so that some of it fell out when I was eating. YUM. Parking can be challenging and I may park at the nearby park up the street and walk down. Come say hi to Mike and watch him doing what he loves. read more

It's been awhile since my last visit here and I must say Mike's Deli still reigns has the best deli around! The sandwiches and burgers are huge, and the sides are spot on with portions often large enough to share. I have not had onion rings in years and recently tried them here. They were light, crisp, and not greasy, just the way onion rings should be. I haven't tried the loaded fries yet, but I've seen what they look like. If you can afford the calories I say eat your heart out. There are endless beverage, chip, and dessert options, it's insane. With so much inventory I'm always amazed at how they manage to keep the store so neat and organized. There are no empty spaces on the shelves, everything is always fully stocked. On my recent visit I placed an order online for pickup and even the website is appealing. You can build your own burger or hot/cold sandwich if you don't want the menu options and they have this easy, detailed check list of toppings, condiments, sauces, etc. for your to pick and choose whatever your tastebuds desire, there is something for every taste palate and they have excellent vegetarian sandwiches as well. As for the pastries, I try so hard to look the other way when I'm in the deli, but I always end up grabbing a sweet treat, like the Oreo cheesecake. They have cake slices, mini pies, bananas pudding, cookies, you name it. Lastly, The employees are always super nice, like literally, the customer service here is the absolute best. They always greet customers with a warm welcome, they are patient with orders, calm when the deli is crowded, and they go above and beyond to provide a great experience. I hope they get paid well because they deserve it. read more

Nice sandwich shop (they also have fried chicken and wings) tucked away in a strip mall. The sandwiches are stacked. My favorite is the Zu Zu. It's got some heat. No seating and there can be lines so order ahead. There's also limited parking. But the place is worth it. read more

Everyone in my  family is a foodie, we appreciate good food and we seek out places that have quality products and good customer service. We were in Hollywood for hubby's dental appointment, since it was lunchtime by the time hubby finished, we had to find a place to eat. After searching online, my daughter picked Mike's Deli. The first thing I noticed when we pulled into the parking lot was the sign for Board's Head products; my heart skipped a beat! I am a HUGE fan of Boar's Head meats and cheeses, they are always dependable for the excellent quality of their products. (Boar's Head Brand was established in the New York City area in 1905). Since this was our first time, and we were having a difficult time choosing from the tempting offerings, we relied heavily on the staff to help us. The woman taking our order was fantastic! She knew the menu inside and out. She gave us options and encouraged us to make additions and substitutions to fit our tastes. Hubby had the #1- Bold Cajun Turkey, Pepper Jack Cheese on Squaw with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, jalapenos, honey mustard & mayonnaise. Avocado optional I had the Smoked BBQ Brisket Homemade Brisket, melted smoked Gouda cheese, grilled red onions, jalapenos with honey bbq sauce& Mayo on a toasted roll for $13.99 While we waited for our order, we strolled around the looong shelves of chips (I saw many of my favorites), and the wall to wall refrigerator full of specialty beverages. The sandwiches were stuffed full of meats and fresh veggies. We were happily stuffed. Thanks to my baby girl for the delicious recommendation. I have taught you well! Our purpose is to nourish the human spirit through the love of food - Boar's Head motto read more

These sandwiches are delicious! I used to come here all the time when I lived in LA. The service is always quick and efficient, food is on point, and it's a great price for the amount of food you get and the portions. The deli itself is pretty spacious. Most people call in for takeout. The only downside is that the parking lot is super small and often very crowded. Definitely recommend trying this spot if you're looking for a yummy sandwich! Food review: The broadway: (4.5/5) This was delicious! It's made with maple glazed honey turkey and avocado on a croissant. Great portion size. Roast beef sandwich: (3.5/5) It was decent, but didn't have any seasoning! Italian sandwich on sourdough: (5/5) This was bombbb. Flavors blended well and they aren't stingy with the meat and toppings. Lemon pepper & buttermilk wings: (4/5) These weren't as crunchy/ flavorful as I'd liked. They are pretty good sized wings. We got a combo with the curly fries but sadly they were really soggy! read more

This place is ahmazing and the Dark Sweet Rye bread does get a little soggy if you don't eat your sandwich in timely fashion! The service is quick and always so clean in there! read more

Mike's Deli is known for their sandwiches. My go to is the Mike's Special sandwich or the hot wings. The sandwich is meaty and tasty. But stick to the sandwiches or wings. Today I tried a cheeseburger and it was not something I'd order again. The burger patty was meh. It came with seasoned curly fries that were on the salty side. Their service is alway friendly and attentive. They have an enormous selection of drinks, chips and fresh desserts to choose from. You can order ahead of time online as an option. read more

Mike's Deli - Delish looking desserts... - Delis Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Mike's was great I could tell it's a well loved business based on how many times the door opened in my 15 minutes there. I purchased a build your own w my toppings and two meats. I had wondered will it be a full serving of meat for 4.50 extra or just half but as you can see below I shouldn't have been worried. Sandwich was great I think because I got double meat it cut down on my toppings worth trying it once won't need double meat again lol. Parking lot looked small but it actually has a bunch of spots and there's street parking if need be. read more

One of the best deli's I have visited. I stopped by for lunch because I heard great things from coworkers and they did not disappoint. When I ordered, they have a specialty sandwich called the "ZUZU SPECIAL" on squaw bread (pumpernickel). it's a breaded fried chicken patty, Cajun turkey with lots of toppings(I submitted photo of listed items" it comes with Cajun mayo and avocado, but I ordered without with a side of their honey bbq sauce. When you walk in, it's very spacious, two lines for ordering and pick up. (If you want to avoid lunch rush, order online for pick up) as it does get busy around 12-2pm hour. When I tell you it was one of the best sandwiches I had. It was seasoned and stuffed. This sandwich was delicious and I'll definitely return to try other great things on their menu as they have burgers, wings, tenders, salads and veggie options. Staff were friendly, helpful and efficient The shop has a wide range of chips drinks and desserts to choose from so this is definitely the one stop shop for lunch. I highly recommend this place. read more

Good service as I recall! Love their sandwiches. Chicken wings are tasty also! Hope to see them soon! They are usually very quick!

Popped into Mike's Deli for a quick lunch and left totally impressed and very full! I got the tuna salad sandwich. Super flavorful and fresh. My boyfriend had the Zu Zu and kept saying 'you need to try this'. Portions were massive. We both saved half for later and were still stuffed. The cashier was so sweet and genuinely fun to chat with. You can tell the staff loves being there, and it makes all the difference. Also love that they have a huge chip selection. Definitely one of those unassuming gems from the outside that hits the spot when you're craving a solid deli sandwich. read more

Great sandwiches made with quality and care. There's a variety of cold and hot sandwiches, along with other items too. The staff are efficient yet welcoming, and their desserts in the fridge section are a great sweet treat after the hearty sandwich, along with the drink options they have. It's very spacious and open inside, and I like to go in the evening versus daytime because it's a bit easier to park. Highly recommend for a good sandwich fix! read more

I recently went to Mikes Deli for the first time while visiting LA for work and was impressed across the board. Most importantly the sandwich was delicious. I stuck with the Classic Club since it was my first time and it did not disappoint! The service was really friendly and fast. The choices for drinks, chips, and even snacks were endless. It took a lot out of me not to grab some grapes with melted chocolate on top. Since this was a work trip I forgot to grab an itemized receipt. After a call with the manager he was kind enough to go out of his way and help me retrieve an itemized receipt. 12/10 spot! read more

Mike's WIFE is an asshole . If your going to be a family ran restaurant in a black community makes sure your wife isn't working on her mad day . I simply asked why my order went from 12.99 pm the phone to $20 Before I could finish She interrupts and tells me " can you let me finish " " can you listen" mind you I didn't even finish my sentence . So she continues on being dismissive and I let her ass know I come here all the time and the black female employees take care of me each time easy with no attitude .yall be takin the "family vibes" too far and nobody is going to take someone's attitude when it's not justified and they are paying for a service . read more

Ambiance: Deli shop/ Sandwich spot Service: Super welcoming and helpful The team is very warm and know their menu.

It's the classic sandwich that they're known for. If you're going for your first time I'd try this or ask the staff to help you pick. They are also known for their list of chips and desserts.

Stopped by Mike's Deli for the ZUZU special sandwich.. OMG crafted deliciousness in the form a sandwich. I never feel bad eating the ZUZU Special-Veggies vegetables and two different types of meats. Bread is perfectly toasted to perfection with a crispy fried chicken .. umm I really wouldn't call it a patty. Whatever it is, it works whether it is a chicken breast or thigh. Sliced Boar's Head turkey- the best of the best deli meats around. Ooh cheese please... American, finely shredded lettuce, tomatoes, red onions- LOVE IT!!! Hold the cucumber, smash on the avocado, drizzle the honey mustard with cajun mayo!!! Sourdough bread best choice for the sandwich!!
