The Most Delicious Delis in Phoenix

Jersey Mike's Subs

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (9)

"Of course Jersey Mike's has some of the most freshly made, delicious, stacked subs out there. But I don't know if they all have the same customer service as this one has. Every time I walk in they are so dang nice. They always have a smile on their face, and are eager to talk to you and server you. When I order ahead they are always right there ready to hand over your food. I love this location! Thank you for always filling my families bellies. Especially on those super busy days when we need something fresh and fast to grab and go!"

"Great Local Lunch SpotThis place is so good. We have never tried Let's Do Lunch before today. This little sandwich shop is a Hidden gem. I wish I had found this place sooner.This food is fresh, made to order, and super tasty. On this visit I ordered the French Dip and Fries. The sandwich was so good loaded with lean meat on the freshest tasting bread and tge Fries were perfect; thick cut, salty crunchy. Reminded me of the small sandwich shops in New York.The perfect local lunch spot to grab a bite to eat. The sandwiches are tasty, the prices are reasonable, and staff are friendly. Let's Do Lunch has all of the things you looking for when you want a perfect lunch."

"Came in a year ago to get anise oil for my Italian pizzelles. Today came In to order dinner for my boyfriend and I for Christmas Eve dinner. The guys were so nice and helpful. They have a full menu from cold sandwiches to full entrees. If you are looking for Italian sauces, oils and vinegars they have you covered.Looking forward to my meal and to take my Italian mother here when she visits in a few weeks. Another plus is the broasted chicken, not a lot of places have broasted chicken on their menu."

"I ordered online using their app. The sandwiches were ready exactly when they said and they tasted amazing! This was our first time ordering from Mike's and we'll be adding it to the regular rotation. This would be a 5-star review except for one small nit. We ordered 4 sandwiches. When I arrived the place was empty and the three workers were hanging out in the back chatting. So it wasn't busy, at all. I get home and the 4 sandwiches are not marked or identifiable in any way. We had to open all the sandwiches and figure it out ourselves. We all had different types of cheese steaks so it was a little challenging. Is it too much to ask that you write the name of the sandwich on the wrapper when you have no other customers?"

"I order pick up from here regularly and it's always good, my orders are correct, and they're ready when I get there. Awesome cream cheeses, and expansive selection of bagels and cream cheeses. I just wish they would have iced coffee or a few more drinks but otherwise, highly recommend."

"Went in and picked up lunch for the office last week. Their sandwiches all looked amazing. I should have called ahead but the staff was very friendly and many regulars that stop by. Great ambiance and the Ruben was fantastic."

McAlister's Deli

★★★★☆ 3.6 (249) • $

"All I can say is HIDDEN GEM! Location is in a plaza, kinda tucked away, so it doesn't really stand out (in my opinion, but others may disagree). Delicious food and great service! We catered from them for my baby's first birthday recently, and the price was amazing for the amount of food we received. The charcuterie board is huge, and even with 15 guests, we had a lot of delicious food left over. Definitely stop sleeping on McAlister's Deli!"

The Lunch Lounge

"This location was across from the hotel i was staying in. I got the build your own sandwich. You walk in and order inside at the front or can order ahead. If you need help ordering on the tablet the employees were helpful. Sandwich came out fast and it was all really good - i ordered turkey and veggies of my choice on a croissant. My boss ordered a sandwich with chipotle mayo and she said it was also very good. We sat inside but there was outdoor seating also and plenty of covered and uncovered parking. Inside was super clean and had all extras you would Wish we had one closer to Ft Worth."

"I hadn't stepped into this little gem & already I made a bad judgement. I figured it was bad food that was overpriced. I could not have been more Wrong!! This place was so delicious & their prices were great! I ordered the country scramble with a blueberry lemonade tea! Super delicious! The staff was wonderful, they were patient & offered suggestions.They offer a great seating area both inside & out. Although it may be a little hard to find, it is definitely worth the hunt. Tip: It is on Level A within the complex!"

"Such a great stop. We came early for some breakfast bagels and they did not disappoint. I opted for an everything bagel with hang egg and cheese. Everything oh was cooked perfectly and it was so good. Service was wonderful and very kind. Prices are great. The location has both inside and outside seating if you'd like to stay and eat. It is clean and plenty of great morning sunshine coming in from the windows."

Hangover Hoagies

★★★★★ 4.7 (282) • $

"This place is a sort of hidden gem within the liquor store and it's a quaint, no frill sandwich counter! The staff is super friendly and happy to give recommendations on the sandwiches. We tried the Drunken Philly and the Third DUI - the Third DUI was really really delicious, the Philly had a little too many mushrooms on it for my taste and could maybe use some sort of sauce but still good. The bread that they use is super fresh and soft and paired with the toastiness is really great.We got 2 sandwiches, 2 bags of chips, and a drink for under $30 so it's decently priced. Overall, I would try again."

"This place was SOOO GOOD! Where else can you pickup Lefse and an amazing sandwich?! This is a small family owned spot with delicious homemade salads, sandwiches and desserts. The ladies running it were so friendly and helpful. There is so many options to choose from. We went with 2 turkey sandwiches, potato salad, pasta salad and a lefse to go. Everything on the sandwich was fresh and top quality. The potato salad and pasta salad were super flavorful as well. We will definitely be stopping in again soon to get our sandwich fix. Thank you!!"

JJ's Delicattesen

★★★★☆ 4.4 (421) • $$

"I love that JJs is still going as strong as ever. Updating my review after 10 years and they still get the highest marks from me! Sometimes the only bright spot about my hour morning commute to North Scottsdale is my call-ahead to JJs to order my breakfast Bagelwich. I'm a creature of habit: Everything bagel with egg and cheddar cheese. It's plenty big enough without anything else, though sometimes I'll tack on some bacon. Pair it with a cup of hot coffee, and you have yourself a mobile breakfast of champions. Always wrapped up in foil to keep it piping up. The quality is so consistent. The guys behind the counter are friendly and remind me of a New York deli. The ambiance is a diner vibe, with natural light and a bustling atmosphere. The patio is lively with plenty of folks hanging out, sometimes with their dogs, and always with lots of conversation and laughter on faces. What's also incredible is the prices actually haven't seemed to change that much through time. Though, I am speaking only from experience with my Bagelwich, which hasn't left my order in 10 years."

56th St Deli & Market

★★★★★ 4.5 (59)

"Synopsis: Reminds me of delis back home in New York; great feel, kind folks, amazing sandwiches. Girlfriend and I are vacationing in the Phoenix area and wanted sandwiches while we visited the Botanical Garden and Zoo. We found this place while looking through recommendations. It's your traditional convenience store with a deli attached to it. The guys working the market were incredibly nice. We placed our orders quickly, pastrami sandwich and a club. Didn't do any sides but we did grab some unique chips and fountain drinks. Our sandwiches were done in about 5 minutes and were well worth the wait. We were thrilled with our stop at the 56th Street Deli. Between the food, the service, and the selection it was a great choice for our sandwich fix. 5 Deli Fresh Stars out of 5!"

"Good quality was good, but customer service was not. Not impressed with the employees who had air pods in and barley spoke with us while trying to make our sandwiches. Restaurant looked clean. Probably won't be back."

"My husband has a busy schedule at work. No time to leave for lunch. I thought I'd pick him up an Original Italian. The location was very clean even being at the end of the day. Super nice guy took my order and allowed me to order the bread on the side separately from the toppings that way my husband could put it together when he wanted to eat it and it wouldn't get soggy. My order was made fast and I was on my way."

City Market Deli & Catering

★★★★☆ 4.4 (32)

"I walked here from Hotel Adeline after my plane landed because I was super hungry! Found this cute little spot on Yelp so I made the trek across the street :)This deli is located in a larger business building, so it was a bit hard to find. I entered from the back of the building and asked for directions. It was easy to find with the guidance! It was lunchtime so it was busy, but the line moved fast and the woman working was very kind and helpful. I ordered the garden fresh wrap and added in turkey. The garden fresh wrap was incredibly fresh and delicious. It was light and perfect! I loved the hummus on it, with the added splash of oil/ vinegar. I got a side of pasta salad with it, which was also good! If I lived in AZ I would frequent this spot!"

"New York sort of air! How should you pass the time? If you were a New Yorker you would be in a cafe some where with your feet drying out from the heaters that are under the table clenching that cup of coffee waiting for it's aromas to sink way down. Arizona is far from New York, here is the next best thing. Bagels, meats, cheeses, bacon, and a beverage. You know this is gonna be good! This little bakery is located right next to a cupcake shop. Yes, and I'm just wandering in now. Better to arrive eventually than not at all. The smells from this shop will give you fever all the way to your core. The best of New York cafe living right here in Sun City Az. No rain and no frost it's all sun and shine in the valley of the sun. The golf is on after a sensational breakfast. They are open early for all those risers that need the goods to start the day off. Bagels and bagels galore. How do you want that pastrami and Swiss or your egg, cheese, and bacon sandwich; they all have one thing in common: they all are served on a bagel. Many times we have visited here. You get some real good food. The food memories bring back times when I visited New York. Their version of a "big breakfast," will quench even a growing teenagers tastes and leave them full. The bacon, what's not to love. The eggs n bacon meal has home cooked potatoes that were always perfect paired with your choice of bagel. What's not to love?It's supporting local that matters. Here in the Sun City area so many big chains are around. This bakery is a proud badge to the community in a sea of corporate world all around, but still the little place is around. Spread the word and always support local. It's Sunday and the early is how we do it! As we live these days, sleep is a fluke and we seem to need less and less of it. Maybe it's stress or all that coffee. Now that's it's morning, it's time for some coffee. It's a beautiful morning. As I sit here and sip the coffee the sun cracks and plays peek a boo from beyond the clouds. As the rays of sunshine dance and spread their radiance the coffee is taking effect. The chef from behind the counter is calling out my breakfast number. It's a help yourself sort of way here for basic coffee. Sometimes all you need is the simple, with that better way of eating in the morning. Especially Sunday morning. The aroma from my food hits my nasal passage way and inside I'm screaming grab that fork. The bacon just beacons for me to eat. Let's go I cannot wait anymore. If yours a type of individual that seeks great deliciousness in home down cooked food, look no further. That New Yorker welcome is here just for you. Bagels galore. How do you pastrami or egg it? On a bagel of course. Perhaps sourdough. The best of heaven wrapped up all the way from the shores of the east coast to the west coast ! Now let's get our breakfast on! It's our connection to food that brings so much happiness to all so enjoy simplicity with a bagel of your choice."

"Love this spot for a sandwich and soup experience! I went with the 1/2 Smokey Mountain sandwich and Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup bread bowl, my favorite combination here. That soup....its just so good! The Russian Mustard adds sweet and tangy to the smokey bacon on the sandwich and....damn...typing that made me want another one now. I may or may not go back in, I need to consult with my stomach storage manager. Lots of seating available inside, some outside, and the service is done with a smile, and the place is clean. On a scale of 1 to 10.....I've hit this place many times and I'll do it again many times."

"Not a bad little lunch spot. I used a groupon that I scored for free for $20 of food. Yes its in a gas station, and the gas station is small. This should tell you that you are probably going to take it go unless you want to sit out side at the picnic table and watch people pump gas while you eat, I think me not. Ordering is pretty simple, and the food is cheap and pretty tasty. King Gryos is still my fave in the area and is the one to beat. Basically its like they are subletting a space in the gas station. Its a greek greasy spoon. If you need some quick greek or grill take out like gyros give it a try. If you feel the need to park your can to get the restaurant feel during lunch, this may provide you some nice redneck entertainment if thats what you are into."

New York Bagels 'N Bialys - Shea

★★★★☆ 3.9 (562) • $$

"After a recent breakfast with girlfriends at this NYBNB location, I figure it's time for a quick update from my last review which was written over a decade ago!This place has weathered the years and the pandemic but stayed consistent with delivering fabulous bagels and bialys as well as solid deli options.Service is attentive, prices are reasonable, and quality is high. On my recent visit, I had a delicious omelette made to order, a bialy and cream cheese, and some sliced tomatoes. Hot sauce was brought upon request.If you're seeking a laid back dining experience with something on the menu for everyone, or are thinking of ordering food to go, this is a solid option!"

Knuckle Sandwiches

★★★★☆ 4.3 (524) • $$

"I woke up late and in need of some breakfast grub, so I found this place on Yelp. I heard that they have huge burritos here, so I ordered one without meat. I also got a cup of coffee. The service was great, and the ambiance was chill. However, I didn't care for the coffee. It was self-served and contained in one of those carafes that keeps the beverages hot for 6 hours. I was blown away by the size of the burrito though! It was freaking huge! I couldn't finish it, so I took half of it to go. Now, if you're a coffee snob, this place is surrounded by Dunkin', Starbucks, and other cafes. But if breakfast sandwiches are what you're looking for. This is a pretty solid place."

"This place has good pizzas and subway sandwiches. Last time we were here, we stopped and grabbed some sandwiches and deli food which was good. Food is pretty cheap here for big sandwiches. I got some chips with them, and we sat inside on a nice warm day to chill off. Pretty nice size place with lots of meats and cheeses and bread to take home and make your own sandwiches too. Nice people and great place. We will be back again."
