Mikey and Mel's deli was adjacent to my hotel in the DC area. I stopped by for breakfast. They had an electronic method to order and I ordered a smoked salmon bagel sandwich. It was delicious and brought me back to life after a night out with friends. The staff was friendly and though I ordered as takeaway, the restaurant was spacious and they had a pickle bars read more

Once I heard there was a deli with a pickle bar within walking distance of our DC headquarters, I knew I had to go. My colleague who told me about this place jumped to join me for lunch. I wasn't anticipating a nice dining room to dine in, but there it was so we did. Although it was uncomfortably warm in there. Must have been something wrong with their A/C because they couldn't possibly always have it so warm, especially in the middle of summer. I ordered The Clevelander and she had The Mel. And of course we hit their awesome pickle bar! Why doesn't every deli in the universe have a pickle bar?! The sandwiches are piled high with meat and so delicious. Several complaints about mine, however: the menu said it comes with mayo and provolone. It came out with no spread at all so I was brought mayo packets to apply myself, which is way less than ideal with a huge already assembled sandwich. And the brand new server (on her second day there) came back after we ordered and asked if I wanted cheese. I mentioned I thought it listed a cheese on the menu, which she confirmed. But then I ended up getting charged extra for the cheese that my sandwich was supposed to come with. Kind of lame. And while my friend was asked if she wanted hers toasted, I was not. I didn't think twice about it until mine came out toasted, which I neither asked for or wanted. Lastly, the sandwich was also supposed to come with "fresh cranberry spread" and if there was any on my sandwich, it wasn't detectable. But I decided not to even mention it because I didn't want to deconstruct my sandwich a second time. Regardless of these hiccups, I would certainly consider returning. read more

I stopped by to get a fresh hot bagel and it did not disappoint. Cinnamon raisins with cream cheese , for the win! Clean, spacious and plenty of natural light. The service is good and you can place your order at the counter, self enter the order or place the order with the waiter. The menu is extensive and I saw many people enjoying the eggs to order. I just did not care for a big breakfast. read more

Being a native New Yorker I have a high expectation from my deli sandwiches, including what pickles I can get. The sandwiches here are great and I love the pickle Bar that has real sour pickles read more

Got a wonderful Mikey-sized pastrami sammie the other day, with improved customer service. I bet it took 10 minutes, if that, to get my to-go order. I gave this place a rest of about a year, and recently returned. Things are much better. Their pastrami sammie is one of the best in the DMV. I'm fairly picky about pastrami. And the pickles are good too. So, congrats to M & M. read more

As a plant based person, wasn't sure what my options would be. Good healthy option. I had a veggie wrap, minus the feta. It had spinach, tomatoes, onions and mushrooms. No sauce to tie it together but a fresh option for my first meal of the day! Pickle bar!!! I'm a fan and may have gone back twice lol! Loved the variety but the full sour was my favorite!! I am obsessed with this bar! They served very large portions from what I could see. My aunt said her food was good. Noted that her omelette wasn't cooked with any seasoning. Also said it too large of a meal for her first meal, which definitely I a complaint I would never have! Lol. Overall cute spot, good food and amazing customer service! read more

Service: friendly and fast Ambiance: great for remote work or simply enjoying your food and beverages. Beverage: I ordered a tall espresso and it was freshly brewed and delicious. Food: I wanted to try a bagel but they were sold out of whole grain bagels so I instead opted for the banana nut muffin. WOW! The muffin was soooooooooo soft and delicious. A scrumptious treat and excellent pairing for the fresh espresso. I'll return again to try one of their sandwiches because the descriptions looked really good. And, as a New Yorker, I need to put their pastrami sandwich to the test! Lol read more

Great location. I've tried their Maple Lawn location so I know how great this chain is. I was staying nearby and stopped in for breakfast. Easy to order via the kiosk. Friendly and welcoming staff. I did the breakfast special which included a breakfast sandwich and a coffee - great deal. If I worked closer I would be here for lunch! read more

I loved the pastrami sandwich! It's exactly what I needed for lunch! I ordered it with rye, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, mayo, and mustard. The pickle came with it. As you can see from the picture, the sandwich is filled with pastrami slices. The taste was good! Excellent takeout experience. read more

Mikey & Mel's Deli - Hot Pastrami - Delis Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Mike & Mel's is a solid go-to, especially if you're hopping off the Metro--street parking is limited. The staff keeps things tight: clean tables, a well-kept pickle serving bar, and efficient service. The pickle selection alone deserves applause, ranging from super sour dill to spicy hot--choose wisely. The sandwiches are no joke and easily a full meal. You'll be asked to choose 8 oz or 12 oz... a true moment of self-reflection. How hungry are you, really? They were out of the potato knish, so I opted for the meat knish--and honestly, no regrets. Think potato and corned beef hash wrapped in a crusty dough ball. Add spicy brown mustard and suddenly you're in a tasty delight of savory heaven. Don't skip on the chicken noodle soup in this cold weather - rush chicken breast meat in a light broth - Yummy! Hearty, satisfying, and unapologetically filling--Mike & Mel's delivers old-school comfort with zero fluff. read more

I was craving a chicken caesar salad wrap and saw that they had one on the menu. It was pretty mid. The wrap was kind of thrown together and loose, so it was falling apart and I had to use a fork. There was barely any salad in it and way more chicken. I felt like it was disappointing for the $20 price point. Their baked goods looked good. Maybe I will come back and try something that's a more traditional Jewish deli item. read more

Mikey & Mel's Deli - Chicken Caesar Wrap - Delis Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Deliciousness - 4/5 Happiness - 3.5/5 I'm happy to have a credible Jewish-style deli in the area. Although not nearly amongst the best delis I've been too, it definitely hits the spot in this area. You order at a touchscreen and then they bring it to your seat. I ordered a sandwich stuffed full of corned beef and brisket. Although it was a true mountain of meat (which I love), it was lacking in the flavor in that there wasn't enough differentiation between the corned beef and the pastrami. The fries were very good - perfectly salty and well crisped without losing the potato/starchy taste. I also got a side of breakfast potatoes that I would definitely pass on next time - they were just too heavy and bland to order again. The Russian dressing was nice and pleasing. And a huge shout out to the pickle bar - lots of varieties and all tasty. I also ordered some food to go. I brought home brisket, which had the same issue as the corned beef and pastrami (not enough flavor). But the tongue was good, if a bit too thickly sliced. None of the desserts (cookies and rainbow cake) were memorable. But the FISH was excellent. The lox were nice and fresh and packed a good punch of salty/umami flavor. They went well with the expertly cooked bagels. I also got some sable and it was fantastic. I really enjoyed every part of the breakfast offerings (besides the breakfast potatoes). I will be back for a sandwich when the mood strikes, but I'm more looking forward going back and trying the fish offerings and more bagels, as they impressed a lot. read more

Mikey & Mel's Deli - No need to ask where's the beef here - Delis Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

As much as I wanted to knock this place based off the price, I can't seem to do so. I went here for lunch yesterday and I can say I would come back. I'd also recommend it to others. I had got the brisket melt, a sweet tea, and a cookie all for ~$30.00. The brisket melt was a gorgeous looking sandwich and tasted phenomenal. The cookie was baked perfectly. Hard edges yet soft in the middle. I do wish the sandwich came with fries or something on the side to make me feel like the price was worth it. It's definitely not no potbelly, subway, pret, bozzeli's, or jersey mikes. I'd say it's a once a month or every blue moon place to go for lunch unless you had money like that to spend. I believe the sandwich was ~$20.00 (normally $18.95 but for cheese it was an extra $1.00 which was odd since it's a melt so you'd think cheese comes with it), sweet tea was ~$4.00, and the cookie $2.00. I added the cookie simply based on the price. I knew I didn't want to come back here for a mid-shift lunch so I figured I might as well try the cookie. However, the tastes of the sandwich made me want to come back for a mid-shift lunch. I definitely judged a book by its cover! I'd probably try something cheaper my next go around but when I looked at the cheaper options nothing spoke to me. The staff was very friendly! I have a feeling they would have corrected an order with no problem should an issue had risen. Ambiance was cool. Restaurant was clean and pickle bar was a surprise. read more

Mikey & Mel's Deli - Brisket Melt - Delis Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

First, let's get the bad out of the way...their pastrami is disappointing. I'm a huge pastrami fan, and this tastes more like it came from a supermarket deli counter than a good Jewish deli. I'd be shocked if it was made in house. With that said, I've enjoyed almost everything else I've had there. My go to meal is a small bowl of matzoh ball soup and a potato knish, both of which are excellent. And the staff is fantastic all around...really friendly and helpful. Pretty rare in DC these days! read more

Ordered through Mikey & Mel's website and items arrived unscathed. Egg Salad Sandwich (1/2 lb): toasted pretzel bun w/mayo. Perfect texture for the bread as the egg salad was quite dense. Dr. Brown's Soda: Cel-Ray. Did not taste like celery, just more of a sweet soda of undiscerning flavor. Crumb Cake: Massive piece, moist, flavorful, would've preferedr more crumb, but no complaints! read more

Saw this place posted on social media... Definitely overhyped. I did enjoy my Pastrami on Rye and the Tiger sauce was fantastic to dip with, but my sandwich was extremely skimpy. When i think Pastrami i think of a sandwich bursting from the seams; even Stachowskis in Georgetown fills it up more than these guys. I am really hoping it was an off day and they are actually better than they are. I hope to come back and change my review some day! read more

I thought I'd give Mikey & Mel's another try after my last visit in December 2025. Since my company was covering lunch today, I decided to order the larger Chicken Salad Sandwich. In response to my original review, the owner/manager mentioned that, given the price point, they "pile on the goods." Unfortunately, that wasn't my experience then and today. The sandwich pictured was roughly the diameter of one hand, and for $20 plus tax, the portion size simply doesn't justify the cost. The sandwich itself was just okay, but the value just isn't there. At this price, I expected much more. This will probably be my last visit. read more

I'm often skeptical of the quality of most delis, since I worked for a really great one and grew up in a town with very good ones. But Mikey and Mel's was *very* good. My turkey sandwich hit the spot, and I loved how it was a quality meat on my sandwich. The pastrami sandwich we also got was made well, and my husband devoured it right away. Also, why doesn't every deli have a self-serve pickle bar? WHY? The necessity of a pickle bar seems so obvious now. The service was quick and efficient. We didn't talk much, but I appreciated how they know how to make a sandwich quickly and do it well. On my next visit, I'm heading in for that matzo ball soup and some cookies, and, of course, the pickle bar. read more

Ordered a pastrami on rye with mustard, and found it to be ok. I had to remove as much of the mustard as possible as it heaped on and took away from my ability to taste the pastrami. The meat itself seemed fine with a decent amount, although I struggled to finish it due to the overwhelming mustard flavor. I may return if nearby, and don't want to hit pot belly. read more

Convenient location for lunch in downtown DC. Very friendly service. A bit cumbersome ordering system if you choose to eat in: you place your order on the screen and pay by swiping your credit card, then you go and pick your table, then you keep wondering how they will find you. The sandwiches we tried were ok but nothing special. I also tried a Greek omelet that was just ok. Toasted bread that came with it was too soft, two tiny packs of butter ( for which I paid extra $1) were almost fully melted and were a mess to unwrap. Unexpected: there is a free pickles bar with a great choice of different pickles, including my favorites - half sour. Overall rating - solid 3 read more

This place not only has something to offer for everyone! Being out-of-towners and trying Mikey And Mel's for the first time and not knowing what to order, just the fact they offer a variety ways to order as an option takes out any chance of being overwhelmed in this relaxed deli! (Walk-up self order tablet, Counter Order, and Table service ordering). Eddie is the rockstar at Mikey & Mel's!! He worked the counter, bussed the tables, took our order table side and never missed a beat!! Be sure to come with empty stomachs and to leave with them very full- the portions are huge and can certainly be shared with someone! My husband ordered the Mike & Mel's omelette, with the fruit side option- and could not finish the tasty dish! I ordered the GM (2 eggs) with the latke side- still too much food for me! Both came with our choice of bread (bagel being the other choice) and we were surprised to see a side of bread is actually 2 pieces of bread each sliced in half (4 halves for each order) they make each dish YOUR way! Needless to say- we grabbed some to-go boxes for our leftovers! The deli overall is family friendly, accessible for all, and well-lit and clean! read more

Meh. Bagels are better than the bread. Rye bread is just not good. Toast means actually toasting items. When someone orders cucumbers check them first before putting mushy gross ones on a sandwich please. This is not my first visit. Every time we come they make a mistake on at least one person's order. We did have a very attentive person in the dinning area this time. He was great. read more

Took a 20 minute walk from my hotel to have breakfast here. It's 9:00a on Monday 9/21/26-Yelp says it's open, the hours on their door say they're open but the lights are off and no one's home! Either they've gone out of business or they just didn't feel like working today. Lots of other folks are walking up to the door and looking just as surprised as I was. read more

History of Present Indulgence: 32 yo M presents to evaluate newly established Jewish delicatessen in the Dupont Circle region of Washington, DC. after a doctor's appointment and craving a sandwich for lunch. Physical Examination: Food - Upon inspection, sandwich specimens present with extreme density and remarkable meat-to-bread ratio. "The Spielberg" was gustatorily evaluated and demonstrated excellent integration of corned beef, pastrami, and the less commonly observed beef tongue. Cheese was Swiss and tangy, crunchy cole slaw along with the Russian dressing balanced the heaviness of the meat combo superbly. Mac salad accompaniment noted as "good" but without any exceptional commentary. The creme-de-la-creme was the self-service pickle station, inclusive of half sours, full sours, hot sours, and chip pickle forms. This establishment feature provoked significant positive emotional response, reported as "elation," "I can't believe I can just have endless pickles," and "oh my god the hot sours are amazing!" Ambiance - Environment presents with appropriate delicatessen characteristics. No adverse atmospheric conditions noted. Pickle bar access unexpected and well appreciated. Service - Fast casual establishment service with added bringing of orders to tables. Amazingly friendly workers noted and enhanced dining experience. Assessment: Premium-grade Jewish delicatessen with potential superiority to previously established gold standard (Katz's in New York). Plan: - Return visits a must - Will bring family and friends to establishment - Sampling of bakery offerings including black & white cookies, bagels, rugelach, and unspecified pastries recommended for follow-up visits - Comparative analysis with Katz's advised to establish definitive hierarchical placement in Jewish delicatessen taxonomy read more

Mikey & Mel's Deli - The Spielberg - Delis Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Mikey & Mel's Deli is the latest transplant that has made its way to DC. I would have never thought this part of the city would be jam packed on a Saturday, but I quickly understood the popularity. After ordering on the kiosk, seating is first come first served, so be prepared to order your food to go if you can't find a seat. I loved how the menu had sandwiches named after celebrities like Larry David and Seinfeld. I had the opportunity to order several items off the menu and here is what I chose: - Black & White and Sprinkle Cookie - The Seinfeld - Chopped Chicken Liver Overstuffed Sandwich (3/4 lbs) - Everything Bagel with Lox Spread - Chocolate Chip Pancakes Even though I came hungry, I still walked away with a take out bag. I highly recommend that you checkout this establishment for yourself. Don't forget to check out the unlimited pickle bar and pack up a few for the road. read more

It was my first time in D.C. and my first visit to Mikey and Mel's Deli. When I walked in, I noticed the self-service kiosks but decided to go to the counter for some guidance. I was immediately greeted with a warm smile from Monea, who went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. She patiently answered my questions, offered great menu insights, and, with help from Ricky, recommended a few of their popular items. I ended up ordering the Pastrami Reuben and a side salad, and they didn't disappoint. The Reuben--served on fresh rye with Russian dressing--was stacked high and packed with flavor, even though I only got the half-pound portion. Before sitting down, I discovered what might be the highlight of the experience: the famous pickle bar. It had everything--horseradish, sour, half-sour, hot pickles--you name it. A fun and delicious touch that really sets the place apart. KJ brought my food to the table and checked in to make sure everything was just right. Later, I noticed Brittany moving through the dining area, helping guests, answering questions, and making sure everyone was taken care of. The teamwork between the front counter, dining area, and kitchen was seamless and professional. Every interaction--from Monea and Ricky's friendly guidance to KJ's attentive service and Brittany's energetic hospitality--made this visit exceptional. The entire crew worked together to create a genuinely welcoming environment. Great job to the Mikey and Mel's Deli team. Keep up the great service, the smiles, and the teamwork--you've got a winning formula that makes people want to come back. read more

Mikey & Mel's Deli - Pastrami Reuben - Delis Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I recently got a pastrami sandwich to go via a food-ordering app and was able to get my order hot and at the exact time of my order. The pastrami was amazing-the perfect amount of fat, cure, flavor, and salt. The sandwich also had a good amount of pastrami for the price, and the bread was solid. However, my pastrami sandwich did not come with deli mustard despite me clearly indicating it my order. Additionally, the sandwich did not come with a pickle on the side, which is a must for any pastrami sandwich at a Jewish deli. I would much rather have had the pickle than the small fruit salad I got with the sandwich. Nonetheless, Mikey and Mel's is a great recent addition to the DC Downtown restaurant scene. I look forward to my next time getting Mikey and Mel's! read more

Today (9/3/26) was my third time trying this restaurant. My experience at this place has been mixed. However, staff needs to pay attention to get orders right. I ordered a salad with grilled chicken (chicken was a bit rubbery) with balsamic vinaigrette. When I got home, is discovered they gave me ranch. Last week I ordered a sandwich with pepper jack cheese. When I got back to my office, I discovered the sandwich had American cheese. Keep in mind the average sandwich will cost you nearly $20.

Got the Adam Sandler and enjoyed it! Definitely overstuffed and a good value for the price. I wish there had been more dressing/mayo & mustard on it, but otherwise it was tasty. I also really enjoyed the chips! Online there was no option to add pastrami as a meat option which was unfortunate. Otherwise, my delivery was fast and I will order from here again. read more

Right across from our hotel, this deli was a convenient place to try for breakfast. Our waitress was great and the food was good. Bagels aren't NY good but decent. The Jersey egg sandwich was really good, the bacon was delicious. Rolls could be better. A little pricey but seems normal for the area. The icing on the top though, was the pickle bar. They were so fresh and really tasty. We would have gone again the next morning but they were closed on Sunday. read more

Three for lunch today. After finding a table, we went over to a row of kiosks to order. An employee was there to help each of us maneuver as it was our first time. The ordering process was straightforward, and you pay when you order. You also pick up a numbered stand so the server can deliver your food to the table. For drinks. You can purchased bottled beverages, including sodas/water, a soda station with unlimited refills and coffee/tea (also with refills). The soda with refills is a very reasonable $3. And there's a pickle bar! Half sours, dill and two kinds of sliced pickles (one with horseradish flavor) and olives. Nice pickle bar that comes with any purchase. I enjoyed my Mikey pastrami Reuben with side (I got potato salad). Nice sized sandwich - the Mikey is the smaller one, at 8 ounces). Cost $20.95 - although pricey, not too bad when you consider the side and pickle bar are included. The potato salad could have used a little less mayo and a little more flavoring. But not bad. One friend got the potato knish, which they said was very good. They wanted the cheese blintzes, but unfortunately, they were told they didn't have them today. My other friend got a salad with sliced chicken. It was a nice size, but they were not impressed. The Staff were friendly and answered some questions we had about the pickle bar, utensils, bathroom location, etc. it got pretty crowded at one point, but we never felt rushed or pushed to leave. I will come again and maybe try one of their omelettes or another sandwich. I think I'll stay away from the entree salads. read more

I visited Mikey & Mel's while on vacation in Washington DC. It was across the street from my hotel. So happy I did! I had the breakfast sandwich with a pretzel roll, sooo.... good! I also got a giant piece of chocolate cake of which I at 1/4 on my flight and the rest over the next 2 days! It was fresh and delicious. The woman that helped me at the counter was also a sweetheart! Great customer service! read more

My first visit was so-so, starting with the service. The waiter barely spoke clear English, and was not clear on my order, leaving out latkes and fruit from my order. I had also ordered coffee, which I had to flag him down and ask for after getting my abbreviated meal. It arrived lukewarm and was a heinously old, a bitter vetch, and the cup was only 3/4 full. The bagel was great and the omelette was satisfactory, using real Swiss cheese. My second visit is in progress. I tried using the touch screens to order this time, but my order for the "Reuben Your Way" would not go through after several tries at different stations. I asked a staff member for help and he just sat me at a table for a normal order. He too was unfamiliar with his own hand held ordering system but eventually we worked it out. The super reuben was large and full of meat, but some of it was a little old and off- tasting. The fountain Coke was great! No watering down and thinning out like most places these days. Not a bad place, but it needs a lot of improvement in staff training. read more

Pretty good deli. We had sandwiches delivered for an event. Look forward to trying more of their items.

Ordering was quick and easy via the kiosk and we were impressed by the the beautiful restaurant which was a fresh and modern take on a delicatessen. My husband and I split a corned beef omelette and pastrami hash, which both came out on humongous platters and looked almost too good to eat. Unfortunately, the actual taste of the food was surprisingly quite bland and have been sitting in to-go containers in our fridge for the past few days. Bagels were .. not it ... and their latke was more like deep fried potato mush. Our lattes were so hot that it took 30 minutes for it to reach drinking temperature. Service was friendly and the place was clean. read more

I happened to be in the area for an appointment and was attracted by the "NY style" deli sign. Being from NY, I've been searching for true NY style bagels. Well I will need to keep searching. I ordered the lox sandwich on a bagel. The bagel, which I requested toasted, was horrible. Cold and hard and flat. Not at all like the fluffy and warm NY bagels I love. The lox was fine but there was so much cream cheese it was hard to appreciate it. I think if they had distributed the cream cheese on both sides of the bagel that may have been preferable to dumping so much on the one side of that hard little bagel. In any event I do not recommend and will not be back. read more
