Wolfies - Smoked Meat Sandwich - Delis Near Me - North York, Ontario

I wanted to check ou this place for a while. Not the most convenient hours of operation with Mon & Friday 9-3pm, Tues-Thursday 9-6pm, Saturday closed ad Sunday 9-3pm. I managed to make it there on a Sunday. I heard good things about this place and wanted to check it out for myself. Wolfies was small and quaint inside and wasn't very busy.when i went there on 2pm on Sunday. I ordered the special which came with smoked meat sandwich (could also get pastrami or corned beef), cole slaw (could also get potato salad) and pickles. My meal came out pretty quickly which was nice. The smoked meat sandwich was very tender and juicy like a good smoked meat should be. I think it was pretty comprible to Centre Street Deli. At $17.00 I think it was slightly pricey and it didn't come with fries which a miss. You could order fries for an addional $2.00. Overall it was a delicious sandwich and would definately come back if I am i the modd for a smaoke meat sandwich. Perhaps next time i would just get the sanwich and not get the special. read more

Easily the best deli in the city. I haven't been to Wolfies in awhile since I loved away from the area. Stopped by and I'm happy to report it's just as good as it's always been. A neighbourhood staple for decades, they serve all kinds of deli. My favourites have always been the corned beef (perfect level of tangy saltiness) and smoked meat (Montreal level delicious). On the side, I love the huge pickles and chunky potato salad. The secret star of all though is the spicy mustard - put that on anything and it becomes a ten times tastier! read more

Great sandwich quality and friendly service. Offered an alternative way to order at a lower price.

The pastrami and smoked meat sandwiches are great. Also the best karnatzel. A great place for a sandwich and good conversation.

Absolutely a must visit in Toronto! The owners are amazing and very helpful! We had a large party and they made room for us even moving some reserved seats so we could all sit together. The smoked meat sandwich is absolutely amazing! read more

I ordered from Skip the Dishes for a corned beef Sandwich and another time for a smoked meat Sandwich! They were excellent and you just pay for the pickles $1.99. Great taste, like Bens in Montreal or New York smoked meat! read more

Amazing deli experience. Enjoyed an old-school pastrami on rye. Friendly service. Get there early for nearby parking

Best sandwiches in town. Whether you like Montréal smoked meat, pastrami, corned beef or turkey, you can't beat the taste. The sandwiches are massive, great value, one of Toronto's hidden treasures. Today I enjoyed the smoked meat and turkey combo. read more

Awesome sandwich. Very friendly. I'm thinking they like CocaCola. Don't order a Pepsi. lol. Cool spot. I'd def come back.

There are not a lot of quality old-school delis left and there are fewer still every year. So, if you have never been to a classic deli, stop whatever you are doing and go right now. Wolfie's is a classic in every sense of the word. They have been making smoked meat sandwiches for over 40 years. The restaurant feels like a Coca-Cola collectors' convention. Every inch of the dining area is adorned with Coke memorabilia. Posters, tables, flags, old merchandise, bottles, banners, you name it. The Coca-Cola theme makes it feel like the restaurant hasn't changed much since it opened, with only a flat screen TV on the wall giving away that we are not in the 1970s. Like most delis, Wolifes has a number of things on the menu but is best known for its brisket sandwiches. I ordered a smoked meat sandwich with fries, coleslaw, and a dill pickle. The sandwich was delicious. You get (what seems like) a pound of meat with house-made spicy mustard between two thin slices of soft fresh rye bread. The sandwich is fresh, flavorful and incredibly filling. The fries are exactly as you would expect them at a dinner, and the coleslaw is crunchy and fresh. The dill pickle is also very tasty if you like your pickles soft (as opposed to crunchy). The drink of choice at Wolife's is (you guessed it) Coca-Cola. There is a number of fridges full of glass bottles of Coca-Cola beverages. These are bottled in Mexico (where they use sugar cane instead of corn syrup). I'm not a big fan of coke so I didn't try it myself. But it seems like the sort of information that would matter to a great number of foodies. Overall, Wolfie's makes for a great lunch and a fun nostalgic experience. read more

Is it a grocery store or is a restaurant? Who c ares? It IS the best. We love it. You will love it too. Corned beef? Pastarami? Montreal smoked meat (make sure it's old fashioned) with cherry coke? They have the best in all of Ontario (close to Schwartzs Deli in Montreal). And fine service and beautiful waitress. Great prices always. Can't be beat. 5 out of five read more

The best deli!!!! Thinly shaved, juicy, corned beef with soft 'gummy' bread and mustard. Sides of creamy potato salad perfectly seasoned, and vinaigrette coleslaw make the perfect balance. Pickles and Stuart's Cherry Cola on the side make the meal complete. I cannot wait to return. read more

This place is the best you will ever have outside of Montreal. It is real, it is schmaltzy and it is just plain good. Served to you with a side of "schtick", you know you are in the right place. Not diet food. Two of Metro Toronto Polices' finest were in there - and generally cops know where the good food is. The place has a diverse clientele and it ROCKS - the owner is a character. If you are seeing a cardiologist, do not divulge to him/her that you are partaking of this divine, gorgeous, rich and decadent indulgence. Oh, my God this place is good. read more

I enjoy a good deli sandwich from an actual deli... Naw , Naw. Not talking about getting one from the deli counter at the supermarket or a "smoked meat sandwich" at a chain restaurant. You don't go to taco bell for Mexican... You don't go to manchu wok for Chinese... You don't go to pizza pizza for Italian... I'm talking a good corned beef or pastrami or whatever smoked meat type of sang-wich... Wolfies is the go-to spot for the simple style of deli sandwich that isn't as common as it should be in our fair city. ** Bonus points for the nostalgic Coca Cola merchandise ** read more

After having it bookmarked on my list of places to eat for months, I finally made my way over to Wolfies Deli for their Smoked Meat Sandwich and it did not disappoint. Located in a small unassuming strip plaza, this place is easy to miss but after taking a bite out of their sky high meat sandwiches, never again will I pass by the area without thinking of this Jewish deli. The Corned Beef, Pastrami and Smoked Meal sandwiches are all priced at $9.96 and sandwiched between four pieces of Silverstein rye with your choice of regular, sweet or hot mustard. The difference between the meats comes down to the spices with the Corned Beef being the simplest (brined beef with no seasoning); Pastrami with a mild blend of seasoning; and the Smoked Meat brined in a mix of peppery spices. I decided to get the Smoked Meat Sandwich "special" ($12.99) which included a sandwich, coleslaw or potato salad, and pickles. The sandwich was absolutely delicious. The smoked meat was freshly sliced from brisket imported from Montreal. The flavour can only be described as meaty and juicy with a buttery soft texture. I was really impressed with the fact that even though the meat was sliced paper thin and fairly lean, I was still able to see all the juices glistening off the surface. The rye bread was soft with a chewy crust which complimented the tender meat and the mustard added a nice kick to the sandwich. Even the sides were great. The Tymek's old fashioned barrel aged dill pickles were crunchy and tart and the potato salad was creamy with a slightly sweet and tangy flavour. It is easy to see why Drake considers this unpretentious deli one of his favourite neighbourhood spots. read more

Best corned beef sandwich in town! I found the smoked meat on the drier side so at Wolfie's my go-tos are the corned beef and the pastrami. This is definitely an older style deli which has been around forever. Small place, best for take out. Be sure to get the house made hot mustard. read more

Excellent food, very friendly staff. A bit pricey for lunch but great quality. Have eaten here many times, highly recommended.

I had the smoked meat sandwich and a pineapple pop. The smoked meat was fresh and tender, as was the rye bread. So much nicer than the if name place downtown. I was disappointed though when I went to order a maltzo ball soup and the waitress said they were all out of maltzo balls. Apparently a film shoot down the road had ordered them all up. I'll have to wait until another time for me to try them. Good food and friendly service here. If coming by car parking may be an issue because the restaurant is located in a small strip mall of stores. read more

Nice old school deli serving up the classics. I tried the corned beef sandwich special with a piled high corned beef on double rye with hot mustard, coleslaw, and fries. Like the best deli's they will custom cut your meat to suite, I had mine extra fatty. I don't know what I was thinking when I didn't order a pickle with my sandwich. Oh well, I'll just have to return again :-). read more

*Readers beware, biased review based on growing up in the hood!* I haven't been in recently, so I'm glad there are many other recent reviews to corroborate my memories of consistently delicious deli. The smoked meat sandwiches are off the chart in taste and value - huge portions, hot and juicy freshly sliced meats, soft, fresh bread, and proper grade condiments to complement the sandwiches. I have never tasted a smoked meat sandwich that was better anywhere else. You can get a few other items like knishes (one of my favourites, especially when you get it heated up for you), deli salads, kosher dills, and smoked sausage style meats. They've withstood the test of time for good reason - providing stellar food to the community for decades without frills (except for the memorabilia decor, which doesn't cost you and lends its atmosphere to the deli) and puffed up prices. It is a small restaurant, only a couple of tables if you wish to eat in. It's more like the classic hole in the wall that produces out of this world food that you pick up when you just want something DELICIOUS. It is true that the plaza in which it's located is a busy one, so finding a parking spot can be a challenge, but it's worth parking a bit further away. For that matter, it's worth going back "home" ASAP! Definitely on my list to return. read more

I was hungry and in the neighbourhood. I pulled out my trusty Yelp app and found this place. Holy smokes!! This place serves some SERIOUSLY good corn beef sandwiches. I've never tried a proper corn beef sandwich before, but I think I've found the "holy grail" of corn beef sandwiches. Wolfie's is an unpretentious deli on a typical plaza just like many others, but IMHO it's a best-kept secret you only share with your close friends. The combination of corn beef sandwich + cole slaw + marinated pickle hit the spot. If you're in the neighbourhood, stop reading the reviews on Yelp and go experience their mouthwatering sandwich for yourself. In terms of cost, the "Special of the Day" consisting of sandwich + cole slaw + marinated pickle was $14 + HST and tips. Side note: Wolfie's has been Drake's favourite neighbourhood spot since he was 5 years old, as his grandmother lived across the street. read more

Finally got to try this spot that I've had bookmarked for ages and it did not disappoint! We ordered via ubereats so I can't really comment on the service or the actual restaurant as I haven't actually been inside, so this review is purely about the food. We ordered two latkes, and the pastrami platter for 2 which comes with a mountain of pastrami, and a heaping scoop of both coleslaw and potato salad and a pickle, this also came with about 6 slices of bread and some packets of mustard. You can order this platter for 1 as well for around $6 less but we opted for the 2 people platter. I have read that the platter for 1 is enough for two people though and I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. The latkes are honestly passable, we were craving latkes when we placed this order but the star was the pastrami. Maybe they would have been better had we dined in but they were just ok. I prefer a thinner, crispy latke but these were thick and dense. Definitely a good portion though for the price, they were massive, a meal in itself actually. Now the pastrami on the other hand was meaty, fatty and succulent but also somehow delicate and there was a depth in flavour that was unexpected. The rye bread was also nice and soft with a chewy crust and worked so nicely with the meat. Even after a very stuffed sandwich, and the sides, we still had plenty for leftovers and even went and bought another loaf of bread for lunches the next day. The potato salad and coleslaw were also great, I'm not sure if they're homemade but they're above average in taste and a good side to a heavy sandwich. Overall, this place is awesome, I will be dreaming about it until we order again. read more

Everything you could ever want out of a deli! Seriously good. Great service, a great assortment of meat choices (not too much, but not too little either), and an atmosphere that is unmatched! The feel of Wolfie's is the perfect feel for this style diner, definitely worth a visit. I also got the fries which were delicious and there was a LOT of them! Super excited about how my experience was here, I highly recommend! read more

I have since received an email from the owner simply stating, "everyone is entitled to their opinion."

This deli made me so hangry for weeks. We visited Wolfie's at least three times in hungered desperation for deli meat.. yet it was closed. All three times.. which, at last, logically led us to check what times this mysterious store was open. I believe on weekdays it's mostly available from 9am to 3pm, or 5pm on some. Saturdays close a bit later.. but glaringly closed all Sundays. Well, you know a deli is good when it could afford to be closed for half the weekend. When we finally made it there on a Sunday morning, we had the corned beef sandwich, smoked meat sandwich, with coleslaw, potato salad and pickles. The paper thin deli beef was perfection. I don't know how else to describe it. The spicy mustard that went with the rye bread and the beef made the dish all the more salivating and I took home a pound of the corned beef following my meal...... three homemade sandwiches later with Wolfie's meat, I'd still go back for more I quite liked the friendly man who served us the two times we went. I also liked the Mickey that stood at the top of the back door of the resto. The 70's decor was way cool and I wanted to see if the cola bottle machine worked.. (20 cents a bottle?? Really?) You'll understand the deli's odd hours once you've tried it. And really, from one very serious meat lover to another, you need to try it read more

30 Years of a Classic Deli Wolfie's Delicatessen is a Toronto Landmark. I can taste the classic style food here. I had the Smoke Meat on rye with homemade hot mustard. Slaw and shoestring fries. The meat was piled nice and high. Worth 2 sandwiches. The rye was sliced thin just to hold it together. The meat was lean, soft and juicy. I polished it off and was looking for more. They need to add a meat plate option with 3 meats and a pile of rye. It is always a crowd pleaser and a popular choice in most places that offer it. The atmosphere here was very cool with the largest coke collection I have seen in a long time. From collector bottles to 50'd and 60's items. Self serve on the coffee or drinks and grab a friend or a table and enjoy. The only small disappointment was the foam plates. I hate them in a sit down establishment. I understand it reduces costs, but it doesn't feel as good. Nor does it have the same presentation to the food. Must have if you are in the area and wanting a Deli sandwich. You will not be disappointed. Thanks Wolfie. read more

popped in here for a NY Style deli sandwich and recommendations on Yelp. as soon as you walk in you can tell it's a wonderful family business. They clearly are popular as they have pictures on the wall with various famous people (including Drake and President Obama!) they're quite busy during the lunch hour but it's expected. they have seating at the location with a total 80's feel (something I'd see in a movie as I wouldn't know anything about the 80's). I believe the person who served us was the owner and he was really nice with answering questions (which is the best sandwich, what is the most popular, which one is your favourite) prepared or super quickly and it came with a generous serving of deli meat, and it was yummmmmmmy! read more

Delicious super buttery soft Montreal smoked meat sandwiches. Tangy vinegar coleslaw. Best place in the area for some good high quality deli. Taking off a star for their slightly high prices ($8.83 approx. for one sandwich) and weird hours (closes at 3pm!?) I'll definitely be visiting again to try their other meats. read more

This is the best deli sandwich I have ever tasted. When they say piled high, that's exactly what you get. Bread is always fresh, service is always very fast and enjoyable. Their dill pickles are real, you can tell they are fermented, just a little salty the way i like them. You don't have to ask for Lean, because they always are, not like other places where you have to pay extra for lean. I go out of my way to go here, there sandwiches are next to none. read more

Wolfie's Deli is a neighborhood delicatessen that emulates much of what the other delis around town do. The place itself has a bit of history, as evidenced by the photos plastered across the place. They have an old school feel to it, and you'll see it all on display. Ordered a special which was the sandwich, small fries, and potato salad (or coleslaw) for $15.99. Got the Corned Beef on Kaiser (gf got the Pastrami on Rye). The Corned Beef was good and was wet. The Kaiser is the perfect vessel for these sandwiches as it soaks up much of the flavor. The pastrami was good too, but the rye bread was so dry. They stack two slices which makes it helpful for holding the sandwiches better, but can be a bit overwhelming. Their spicy mustard is legit, so opt for that over the regular mustard everytime. Potato salad was bleh. Wolfie's is a pretty decent deli. The clientele here appear to be locals and the workers know a bunch by name, which is nice. The place is pretty good, but the prices are a tad high. There are better delis around, and I know they try to be like Montreal's top deli's, but they're just not there yet to me. read more

Went here recently and got a corned beef sandwich and a pop. I wanted matzahball soup but they unfortunately ran out because of some film crew across the street. The server was sweet and apologetic. The sandwich was delicious and they were generous with the meat. There's four slices if bread rather than two if you're a fan of splitting your sandwiches into smaller ones, I'm not but it's nice to have. The pops come in fancy glass bottles which is always fun. Overall it was a good meal. Service was excellent. Decor is interesting. I'll leave my review at 4 stars until I get my soup read more

Wolfies Deli is old school perfection on double rye bread. I love their smoked meat and old school corned beef on rye, but feel free to skip all the sides, especially the oven baked french fries. Yes, that's right I said McCain superfries from the toaster oven, LOL The decor is cluttered and tacky with tons of Coca-Cola memorabilia in classic Deli fashion, seating is simple and barely functional, and the sides are all completely forgettable, BUT, you are here for the sandwiches, and they have absolutely gorgeous smoked meat and corned beef sandwiches, shaved thin, overstuffed with a mountain of meat, just completely authentic and delicious and perfect. There are a few good delis in Toronto, but THIS is the place that truly takes me back to the old Spadina delis of my childhood, getting huge corned beef sandwiches with hot mustard on Fresh rye bread, with my father as a boy. Trust me, you're going to love it. read more

Very happy with sandwiches at Wolfie's on both visits (one pastrami, one Montreal). Don't let Grumpy Dave (old guy who works there, trolls the reviews sites to argue with customers LOL) put you off. Although he acts the part, he's actually not Wolfie--RIP-- but Wolfie's son-in-law. If Dave really bugs you, Saturdays is the best day to try this deli because Grumpy Dave doesn't work then. Danny works, and easily forgives misdemeanors of customers cracking under the the hellish stress of living in modern Toronto ($4000/mo for a 3-bd apt .... says it all?). read more
