Italian

Cute little sandwich shop! The inside is relatively small, but there's tables for a good number of people to sit both inside and outside. You place your order at the counter before seating yourself. The people behind the counter were sweet and helpful. We ordered the pink skies drink, which they advertised as tasting similar to a Starbucks pink drink. To me, it tasted more like a strawberry daiquiri. It was sweet and not super creamy. It had a strawberry puree, which gave it the sweet taste. The Italian sandwich had a great flavor - it had a sweet Italian dressing, mayo on the bread, fresh lettuce, cheese, and several meats including baloney, salami, and pepperoni. The bread was soft and fresh. The cucumber salad got a little soggy in the vinegar mix. They were perfectly salty, but could have been a bit more sweet for my personal taste.

Vegan Breakfast sandwich

Ordered pick up from here last Sunday and line was nearly out the door, always a good sign. I had the vegan breakfast sandwich and loved it - the vegan bacon on it has a great texture and the sandwich is huge. Plenty of outdoor seating which I took advantage of with the pup.

A friend of mine had been raving about Urban Deli, so I finally stopped in to check it out. Upon entry the restaurant was very clean and well kept. I ordered the sandwich, salad and matcha. The pastrami sandwich was very good and flavorful. The greek salad was somewhat oily and the matcha was somewhat bland for my liking. Overall, I will return; but I'll try something different.

Visit here for the first time the day before and had a Ruben that was absolutely delish. So I came back today and tried the tuna salad sandwich. On my previous visit I also had a sweet salad with an urban sweet tea. Friendly ladies that work the front counter. Good vibes here.

The roast beef and Brie sandwich at Urban Deli in Savannah is outstanding. The beef is tender and flavorful, paired perfectly with creamy Brie that adds a rich, smooth finish without overpowering the sandwich. Fresh bread and well-balanced ingredients bring everything together, making each bite satisfying and comforting. It's a simple yet elevated sandwich that's well worth ordering again. Great service from staff and nice ambiance to enjoy your meal.

Lovely space

Yum. Reasonably priced (for the area), good quality sandwiches and deli stuff with nice seating and friendly staff. The 65-ish owner was engaged and attentive to everything being just so. Our sandwiches were tasty (my roast beef and brie wasn't as tasty - to me - as my wife's pastrami; I liked my red potato salad but hit it with some salt and pepper for a little more bite) and were large with good quality ingredients. Totally worth a visit.

My family was craving something light, like sandwiches, and Urban Deli was the only restaurant that was close AND had near 5 star reviews. Plus it's located just outside of South Historic District, so not only do you get a good meal, it was also around nice scenery. Upon arrival, it was packed with patrons and I loved how the building was quaint and cozy. I was looking forward to trying it after reading so many rave reviews. However after actually dining there, I was left disappointed. Nearly all the sandwiches are 15$ each. They serve 17$ ramen, but only after 4:30pm. They have other options but I didn't look at those. You could choose a sandwich and salad combo for $8. Drinks (bottled and canned) are 5$ each. The kids menu items were extremely limited without a price next to it. As we were checking out, we were shocked of the register price of over 50$ for just an adult and child. Come to find out, a drink was 5$, the kids sandwich (bread, cheese, and meat) was $13. It did not include a side. Adding a side a la carte (fruit) was 5$. But we were already there and my kids were starving. So when we finally checked out, 4 sandwiches (2 which were just cheese and turkey), 2 salads, a side extra of fruit, chips, and two canned beverages costed a whopping $95. In no world would I ever pay almost 100$ for a meal of sandwiches for a family of four. That's absurd. I get that I'm in Savannah and that the area is historic but I'm from Nashville where things are considered overpriced too. But for 100$ I should have gone to another restaurant, any restaurant, for food that's worth the money. The positive? The sandwiches are decent but small. Unlike other reviewers said, they were nowhere near the best I've ever had. Even a lady who was sitting with her mother next to us was complaining about "$20 dollar sandwiches". What's an insult to injury is that I went to Lady and Sons for dinner that night and our entire meal for 4 with unlimited food was cheaper than lunch at Urban Deli. I won't be coming back and I can't recommend Urban Deli.

Fresh bread on the Italian sandwiches
Chris V.

Stopped by for a sandwich while passing through Savannah. All of the ingredients were top quality; fresh breads and good quality meat. Lots of different options. Sandwiches were around $15 each but we thought it was worth it given the quality of the sandwiches. My family ordered two Italian sandwiches which had a lot of yummy meat and cheese dressed with fresh lettuce and tomato. We really enjoyed them. Also had a Ruben and gyro which were both tasty.

Chocolate Chip cookie

Absolutely everything about this place hits the spot. From their wide variety of side dishes, to every sandwich you could possibly imagine and the sweet treats -- perfect! My friends and I stopped by early on a Saturday for a quick lunch and were blown away. I had the Turkey Bacon (sub for French bread), a side of fresh fruit and half of a chocolate chip cookie. All of it was sooooo good. The seating outside is perfect for a nice day, with plenty of tables and shade to go around. There were inside tables too in case you prefer that! Service was really quick and the girl working the counter was super helpful in accommodating some switches I made to the meal. She even helped me figure out the best way to order what I wanted as a combo!

Food was so great I forgot to take a photo! I got the egg salad sandwich and a peppermint mocha! Just a note to avoid making the same mistake that I did: coffee/drinks are served immediately at the register, while food is delivered to the table once finished! Don't let that latte get cold at the register!

Urban Deli, the place that was the hidden gem to our trip to Savannah! It was so good we had to make two trips in just a few days- Ha! We were delighted to walk into such a cute environment, so spunky! We found the menu upon arrival to be a bit challenging to navigate at first, but were quickly greeted by the kindest staff to direct us on our options! Certainly a "choose your own adventure" vibe! The menu also offered ample options to those with allergies and intolerances with ease! Perfect for a big lunch of a combo (sandwich and side) or a quick snack with the bowl options in the cooler! FYI: Pricing for all bowls is done by weight! Seating options inside or outside! Not a bad choice to make! A cooled, well-decorated environment or a warm, breezy sidewalk to enjoy the Savannah community! This establishment is one we will be raving about back home as we report of our trip! Would absolutely recommend! P.S. don't forget to get in on of their delectable desserts! There are two s'es in dessert for a reason, so why not get two! Or four?! I'll let you make that choice!

Came in here for lunch with my son and we both enjoyed our meals immensely. I had the turkey and bacon sandwich which was hot with greens and mayo along with a latte. The sandwich was served on a wheat toast and was huge. I only ate half if it. My son had vegan BLTA vegan bacon, lettuce, tomato and avocado. He is loving it, he wants to come back here for dinner. And we might as the menu has a lot of options. The food is really fresh and delicious.

Italian sandwich was drenched in mayo. And wouldn't really call it an Italian - it was ham, lettuce, and cheese (plus a lot of mayo).

It was also really interesting how you didn't have one singular server, but instead, they all rotated and checked on you continuously. It was not traditional, but it worked very well. Maybe other restaurants should take note lol! Food was so incredibly fresh, pasta was hot. It was amazing. The only negative about the food is that they don't make their bread or desserts. It was shipped in from a central factory (and you could tell compared to how fresh everything else was). I also wish they had a fountain beverage station. Every drink you'd need to get was in a bottle in a big coke cooler. This place is definitely very small (I think they would benefit from making their shelving areas where they sell their pasta, smaller, and putting in more tables instead). You could also tell there wasn't enough room in the back for the employees because I was waiting in line for the restroom and had to move multiple times because the servers come in and out of there. There's only one little tiny restroom in the back corner. It was also really cool how you could see everything being made in the back. There was a whole factory behind a glass window where they were making the pasta fresh. It was amazing!! The building needs a facelift but everything else was AMAZING!!

Unfortunately, my experience last night left a bad taste in my mouth. We were seated in the lower dining room. Everything was going well with good service and delicious drinks... and then I spotted a cockroach crawling under our table. Of course, we are in the south & I am willing to overlook the odd roach here and there. However, when a second one emerged from the hallway, my confidence that this was just a one-off incident tanked. By the time our food arrived, our focus had been diverted to be on roach alert. Unfortunately, the food also missed the mark--overly salty and bland at the same time. None of this aligns with The Public I know and love, so I am really hoping this was just an off night. Might be taking a break from this place for a while.
