Vellee Deli

Vellee is a great spot in the skyways of Minneapolis! The menu is not too extensive but had great variety. The service was great - took no time at all. Pricing is comparable to most skyway grab and go. I got the Korean BQQ burrito - great flavor! I do wish that the contents of the burrito were mixed up, as there isn't much flavor other than the meat. Seating is limited, so plan on taking it to go or getting here before the lunch rush. We got some of the last seats around 11:30. The inside is well kept but there are more scenic places to visit in the skyway

Great lunch option if you are working downtown! I had the Korean BBQ bowl which had great flavor and it was a good portion size. Would definitely recommend trying out Vellee Deli!

Stopped by the other day for lunch as I was craving the Korean beef burrito. Hadn't been here since before the pandemic. Was happy to see that it's still open and survived where a lot of the others closed.Ordered my standard which is the Korean beef burrito with one kick. The food was fresh and made well as always. Although not sure if they have changed their recipe or how they make it, it was different than what I remembered. Could be just that I remember it different.It was still a good lunch. Not as spicy as 1 kick use to be and the beef seemed a little thicker. But overall I will be going there again and the uniqueness of the menu is hard to find in downtowm

Vellee Deli, located in the Skyway, offers labeled vegan items including banh mi, a tofu burrito and a few sides.I got the tofu banh mi ($9.50), which is vegan by default. I thought it had good bread and a decent pickled slaw, but the tofu was heavily marinated in a sauce that was overly sour and one-note. The service is fast and friendly and the food feels freshly prepared.Downtown Minneapolis, while vegan-friendly, isn't super great in the Skyway system. I'm glad Vellee Deli is around, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. I'm sure office workers appreciate it, though.If you want better vegan banh mi, check out Lu's Sandwiches (two locations in Minneapolis).

I didn't enjoy this high-end duck confit banh mi any more than the down-market variety. Bread and accompaniments were fine, while the meat was appealingly juicy but didn't have a distinct duck flavor. This place seems popular with office workers, who are more well-informed than me and may have had better luck navigating the fusion menu.

Came here after hearing about the Korean BBQ bowl, in hopes that I'd discover an alternative to World Street Kitchen's bowl (a personal favorite dish in the city) that was walkable from the office! The line was long but the service in the skyway location was quick and friendly. The shop's ambiance is pretty minimal, but it has some window bar seating if you'd prefer to eat in. Now food: What I received was...odd. With each bite, what I expected to taste just wasn't there. The beef was just beef...missing the bulgogi or kalbi style seasoning you'd expect with KBBQ. The kimchi was bland and raw lettuce had a strange dominance in the flavor profile and mixed poorly with the rice. I gave it just one "kick," their spice level indicator, so it's possible I didn't let the flavors shine like I should have. Still though, I can't imagine knocking it up a level would unlock an entirely different flavor. Giving it two stars since maybe their Vietnamese dishes are better, I'll try the Bahn Mi to be sure. But at $16 out the door, I'm struggling to find what the raving reviews saw in this bowl.

Had this for the first time during work hours and it was decent. I got the Korean BBQ bowl mild spice. The flavor of the meat was pretty good. The kimchi seemed nonexistent though because I did not taste ANY spice at all, let alone the extra mild spice I added. Maybe their kimchi is just not spicy? But that was just quite disappointing. That was my first time but I would like to go back and try something else again and ask for something spicier and hope for the best!

First time here, but heard all good things about their food truck and other location. We tried the Chicken Currito which I highly recommend, along with the Korean BBQ burrito. We only went with a spice level of 1 on the Korean, but I would recommend going higher as it didn't have much. That said the kimchi on the Korean BBQ was fantastic. Overall cool vibe inside, great location, and awesome service as well. Will definitely be back.

Walked here from my office over lunch and got their BBQ Banh Mi. I didn't have super high expectations but was pleasantly surprised at how incredibly flavorful it was and was a great Vietnamese fusion sandwich! The line was pretty long as were most places but it went quickly and the food came out hot & fast. Will definitely put it in rotation of places to get lunch when I work downtown!

Great food, service, atmosphere. Wanted the Bahn Mi to WOW me. It's good just wanted some crispy duck bits. Get the Pineapple salsa! You will not be disappointed by anything here.
