Hands-down, this is The best deli in Sarasota. Their pastrami sandwiches are off the chain. Their customer service is absolutely fantastic, everyone I’ve come across has been overly kind.

We absolutely loved our visit to Palm Avenue Deli! The service was quick and friendly, and the food—wow. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with care.

We tried the eggs Benedict, which were perfectly cooked, and one of their bagels with smoked salmon and scallion cream cheese so, so good. The salmon was super flavorful, and the smear 👌

We also had their chocolate egg cream (made with milk chocolate and soda water) out of pure curiosity...

I rarely take the time to give positive reviews, but just had to stop and comment on how much I love this restaurant. The breakfast items are the best I've found in Sarasota, and the decor and overall atmosphere is so unique to Sarasota, and just has a great vibe. My only complaint is that you are no longer open at 7 so I can't enjoy your food before work, hope you reconsider, at least part of the year.
