The owner of this deli is a long way from his home in New York City, but he has brought a heaping helping of New York along with him. Lively banter between patrons and owner, colorful decor, fresh ingredients, and big portions make this a fun dining experience. Friday nights are theme nights when the deli sports fresh linens and fine silver and serves up dishes from Italy, Spain, Key West, Florida and other exotic locales. Call for reservations for Friday night dinner.
The cathedral ceiling, cozy loft, floor lamps, paintings of wisteria vines and an outdoor mural provide simple elegance. Even so, it is the food that steals the show. Sandwiches are the order of the day and come with chips or pretzels and a pickle (or substitute tangy bow-tie pasta salad). Enjoy the deluxe roast beef sliced and served on an onion roll with zesty horseradish sour cream sauce. Try the veggie sandwich made with Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles on a bun with special house sauce. Tuna, chicken and pasta salad plates are also on the menu. The delicious homemade soups are a seasonal favorite. Finish with regular and low fat brownies or cookies. Sandwich platters and deli trays can be prepared on request.
