This place not only has something to offer for everyone!…read more 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!

I have been here over 3 dozen times atleast. I always grab a sandwich and have venture into their homemade pizza dough, pasta sauces, baked goods and more. I've never had anything bad here over several years. They have an online ordering service which makes pick up a lot more easier. Sometimes when it's busy you can expect to wait 20-30 mins on your sandwich, so i usually order in advance. Parking can be touch and go sometimes but there's a free parking garage (up to 3 hours) around the corner.

I live ~10 min drive north from this location. This is my second time coming for a private event…read moreand both times I've come, I've said out loud, "I should order takeout from them once a week!!" They operate a deli counter in the front and a bar / speakeasy in the back. You can rent out the bar space for private events. Last night, we had the space (and a bartender!) to ourselves, along with 3-4 different types of sandwiches. There is something SPECIAL about their seeded Italian bread. The perfect flakiness and texture. I enjoyed the chicken fontina and Italian. The caprese was my least favorite--not sure if they use a balsamic or what, but the flavor wasn't coming through. Before I left, I decided to order a large chicken cheesesteak to take home for lunch the next day. It was a bit of a risk to order a hot sandwich that I would have in the fridge overnight but I heated it up in our air fryer/toaster oven for all of 10 mins and the bread was good (not soggy) and the sandwich itself was delicious. I enjoyed it so much, I didn't stop to take a photo until the last bite :) It's a decent size sandwich--I ate half for lunch (along with my own chips and veggies) and have another half for tomorrow so while it's not cheap, I think it's reasonable.

Delicious gourmet sandwiches - the March monthly special veggie sandwich, The Truth hit the spot!…read moreThe sandwich shop is tucked inside The Gatsby hotel with only indoor solo seating on cozy bar stools with a window view and some outdoor seating in front of the stadium. It's primarily a take-out shop with a dozen or sandwiches and a few sides. The Truth veggie sandwich was bursting with flavor with sweet potato, crispy eggplant, juicy portobello mushoroom, and creamy lentil aioli stuffed between whole wheat bread. It was so good that I didn't even miss not cheese! Initially, I thought about adding cheese, but glad I didn't and stuck with the classic sandwich. By the time I made it through a couple of bites of the 2nd half of my sandwich, I was stuffed and didn't have any room or a craving for chips or fries that I typically get. It was a simple sandwich with quality ingredients made well. Crossing my fingers that the veggie The Truth sandwich stays on the menu and looking forward to coming back to try other sandwiches!

The best thing is the The deli meats they put inside, pastrami, turkey breast, tongue... Aaand I also tried something sweet from the bakery part! It was good too. I like it, I will finish it with my coffee, after my lunch.Maybe they have to add a few thing which made my dairy products... A bit light things:) I only didn't like the coffee. It was bitter and like old taste... Ambience was good.especially when they made the temperature I like the place. It wasn't cold at all. Normally in America they put the AC on. Never check the people if they are cold or not! The temperature was ideal... I think I have to visit the place more often

I loved every bite. I just wish I would have known to get it toasted. The regular white bread isn't doing it for me but that's minor. Tuna 8/10 The tuna was prepared really well, the crunch from the bread and the softness from the tuna was a great combo. The only thing I would change is some more seasoning on the tuna would push it over the time for me.

The deli has a small dining area for patrons. My interaction with the staff was limited, but they were friendly enough. I ordered a steak and cheese sub. It was ready pretty quickly, in less than 5 minutes. The sub was ok. I felt that it had less meat than other steak-and-cheese sandwiches I had. It was also cooler than I expected. The meat was lukewarm. It had a little spice, which I liked. But outside of that, I did not like the flavor. The sub came with a pickle, which looked very sick. It tasted even sicker. I could not even finish it. My experience with this deli was ok. I may eat here again and try something different, but it will not be my first choice.

Getting ready for Oktoberfest? This is the spot to stock up on brats and beer!…read more If you're looking for authentic German ingredients for a meal, German Gourmet Deli won't disappoint. They've got an excellent selection of brats and sausages, salamis, cheeses, pierogis, German novelty items, chocolates, and--of course--wine! The only downside? Not all staff seem familiar with German specialty foods. I actually asked about pierogis and was told they didn't know what they were... until I stumbled across them in the freezer myself. ‍ and BTW... the potato onion had a nice pepper flavoring. Still, the variety and authenticity make it worth the trip--just be prepared to browse and discover some gems on your own. Perfect for all your Oktoberfest cravings!

Their baked goods are not good - same with their prepared foods, all while being very overpriced. Went to their location on MacArthur right after they opened and they didn't have a menu prepared yet so the cashier just made up a price for my plain turkey sub and charged me $18.50. When I asked where they got this price they gave a vague roundabout answer and would not budge on lowering it. Very sad because my family has been supporting this place since I was little. Management needs to get it together before even the loyalist customers get tired.
