41 Best Delis in Baltimore

“I love getting Vince’s “wine of the day.” So many great options with fair pricing. Sandwiches are very delicious as well.“

“Been going here with my mom for years and we love it . I get one every time I visit Baltimore. The lean corn beef is delicious“

“Everything is fantastic! From breakfast sandwiches (and plates) to lunch specials. The food tastes great, you are usually in and out very quickly, and they have fantastic memories and will greet you by name. I ended up with Covid, my last day of work was Nov 17th, and I did not come back until Jan 4th. They still remembered my order! "I" didn't even remember it!!! Always excellent. Highly recommend.“

“11/14....I was working. I got hungry. Googled best sub in Hampden...Luigi's popped up. Maaaaan LISTEN...this one will be REMEMBERED. Bomb.com. I mean everything in the sandwich from the bread to the condiments to EACH topping....was delicious. I would prefer lettuce over the Spring mix but NO COMPLAINTS. The peppered turkey, and provolone was a 10/10.

Thank you. I will be back.“

“The ladies that run this Deli/Convenience store are so sweet. If you're a regular and are a little short they let you bring it back. It's really hands down one of the cleanest Delis around here. Their grill and kitchen area is sooo clean. No bugs or signs of rodents. Definitely should give em a try and help out a small business!

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes wheelchair accessible“

“Was in the area and decided to grab a quick bite before catching the bus to NYC. I ordered an egg and cheese sandwich. It was fresh, they balanced the cheese with the egg so it didn’t over power the egg. I’d definitely go back. I also loved the young lady at the register she was all smiles and had a great attitude. Customer service makes it an even more reason I’d return.“

“y'all appear to accidentally put pickles on my BLT today. I'm not a huge pickle fan. best happy accident ever. I will forever order this way. proof vikkis is incapable of serving a bad meal. 🩵“

“Sad to say me and my husband eat from here almost everyday ! We can’t help it we love their food and service is great! I sometimes order for people at my job because we work a hour away but they love the food I bring in ! Hands down best carry out in Baltimore!“

“Last day in Baltimore and we wanted to try a local deli sandwich. we are in Baltimore celebrating a anniversary and a birthday and came across this spot and I’m so glad we tried it! Beautiful neighborhood, nice little outside tables to sit at and people watch, people were so nice, and the sandwiches we got were amazing!“

“I have never ate here before until my co-work recommend for lunch and I must say, the chicken and shrimp panini grilled sandwich was absolutely delicious and fixed to perfection, price of sandwich was not bad at all. I would absolutely recommend Jawa's for a great spot for lunch.“

“Went by the get a sandwich and Jay was very helpful. The environment is friendly and the pricing is very fair for how much you get. Jay did a really good job balancing fillings and sauces so my sandwich was not dry or soggy. There are a lot of drink and chip options and the vibe is chill. It does take a minute for them to make the sandwiches so plan on sticking around for a few or plan on walking the block. It’s a local business and it tastes better than subway so if you’re debating, just walk the couple blocks, you won’t be disappointed.“

“I went to Young’s Deli based on the TA reviews and because of proximity. The Korean-American proprietor is exceptionally friendly and she makes a great hot chicken sandwich. If it weren’t for the sandwich boards out front of the building, this place might be impossible to find at 20 S Charles St. If I’m ever back in this area of Baltimore on business, I’ll be back.“

“Best breakfast in Towson!! Best chicken cheese steaks in Towson!!!! Most friendly/welcoming Staff and Restaurant in Towson!!!! Best all-around Deli in Baltimore Metro are!!!!!! Perfect if you live in or work at the Hampton Plaza in Towson. #1 thing about being here everyday!! Thanks for being so good. Cheap. Friendly. Fresh. Delicious. Tasty. Shown in pics. Bacon cheese omelet with home fries. Chicken cheese stk with curly fries“

“Jake's is a staple in that area. The proprietor's are friendly, very well mannered, pleasant to interact with. The food is above average for it's venue....and the Staff are pleasant and attentive to your request and preparation interest and dislikes. One of my GoTo's when I'm in the area.“

“My lunch was great and prepared quickly!!!“

“Definitely not on my list of Go-2s for healthy food. But I do enjoy eating there sometimes. The service is so-so but the food is good. Understand, that I don't like going to a place that if you say you don't want my food a certain way, and then they put too much butter; for example. Then, they have an attitude about fixing your food🤨😏.. other than that I recommended. As far the atmosphere goes.. I don't feel like 99% of the restaurants out there, even diners or full-blown restaurants (if they are serving African Americans)
I just do not feel like the quality of the atmosphere and sometimes the cleanliness is going to be Up-2-Par.. Just my opinion!! But It's definitely not dirty, because If so I would not suggest eating there. However, it is just not fixed up at all. It's just okay to grab lunch & go.“

“Best Deli ever! Great menu. Every item is always so fresh and delicious. Staff is super helpful and friendly. Very refreshing!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I absolutely love their small 5 wings with western fries—SPK on everything. This is my go to whenever I’m craving fried chicken. They never miss. I’ve also tried a few of the lemonades; they’re pretty good, just a little sweet for my taste, so I usually dilute them however no complaints there. Overall, consistently good food and I’ll definitely keep ordering from them.“

“It was really busy - even at off hours. It was a bit chaotic.

Their offerings are a weird mix of American food (burgers, breakfast sandwiches, etc.), soul food (grits, lake trout, etc.), and Asian food (orange chicken, fried rice, etc.).

The staff were not particularly friendly, but they were efficient.

The food was fine - nothing special. $5 for a sausage, egg, & cheese on white bread feels high, though.“

“I drive from the county to the city because it's that good. Good service, good prices, good people, food on point. Westside born and raised and I'd put the sukiyaki sub they make against anyone else's any day of the week.OH and if y'all eat fast food and drink half & HALF on the regular, stop complaining/worrying about what's in the VACCINE and get vaccinated! LOL“

“A couple months ago during the summer a transformer blew cutting out the power for the whole block., knowing I couldn’t cook, I got an Italian cold cut , fed myself and my mom. It had plenty of meat and tasted amazing! I’ve lived in the area for over two years and I’m sad I just now tried their subs.“

“Oh boy, let me tell you about the pre-game magic we experienced at Johnny's! With a high school state championship soccer game at Loyola on our agenda, my friend, her daughter, and I were on the hunt for the perfect spot to fuel up before the excitement. And boy, did we hit the jackpot with Johnny's! Walking into Johnny's was like finding a hidden gem in a treasure map. The cozy vibes wrapped around us like a warm blanket on a chilly Sunday—it was just what we needed! We settled ourselves at the bar, eager for some drinks and snacks, and that’s where the real fun began. Our bartender was nothing short of a beverage maestro! I ordered a cortado that was so perfectly crafted I nearly swooned. Seriously, it should have been on the cover of a coffee magazine! And let me tell you about their wine list—it’s like a unique art piece. I picked a Pinot Noir to accompany my house-made Old Bay chips, and it was such a delightful pairing that I felt like a sophisticated sommelier for a moment. Now, my bourbon-loving friend was over the moon to discover that Johnny's stocked his all-time favorite brand, FEW. After indulging in wine and coffee that could make any day brighter, we just had to cap off our relaxed Sunday with a round of bourbon. Because what’s a pre-game without a little celebratory sip, right? My friend and her daughter were enjoying their vanilla latte and mocha to the fullest—let’s just say the smiles on their faces were positively radiant! And the cookies? Oh my goodness! The gingerbread and peanut butter cookies were instant crowd-pleasers. I’m pretty sure I’d fight a bear for another bite! Now, here’s the kicker: my friend might live in sunny Florida, but I’m ready to brave the Washington Beltway traffic any time just to return to Johnny's. If they nail snacks and drinks this well before a soccer game, I can't even imagine what kind of culinary genius they have up their sleeves! So, Johnny's, you’ve stolen my heart (and my taste buds)—I’m already counting down the days until my next visit!“

“I have never been in this restaurant but just looked it up on line after ordering here like 4x thru Grub Hub. It's giving Pete's Grill type of food - vibes. It's not Pete's Grill from the looks of it BUT the food I've ordered the last 4x in 2 weeks has been hot and delicious. The Pancakes are perfection - 3 pancakes for 5 or6 bucks is very decent. The grits come buttered and seasoned, the hash browns are grilled and browned. I've ordered from Pete's Grill and Ms Shirley's. Ms Shirley's can be expensive and Pete's gets busy. Golden Star Carry out is my new favorite spot for breakfast.“

“delivered 6 plts....open at 4am...room on the street to park...have to back in from across st for door 10...wasn't bad ..tight gate just pay attention and take ur time...delivering early seemed to b the best idea...1st stop of two in the area...probably could have taken a break parked on the street if u needed to..they didnt mess around with the unload took longer to back in than it took them to get their freight...good experience..“

“first time customer and most definitely will be a return customer. I ordered a 12 piece half roasted garlic which really wasn't roasted garlic lol just fried wings sprinkled in garlic or looks like everything bagel seasoning. While the other half were honey garlic again hardly no garlic, just all honey. Both were good to the taste buds“

“I’m from New York. I lived near a deli that made the absolute best egg sandwiches. Needless to say I was a big fan. I went to Roby’s and the gentleman at the front desk was very polite. I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sandwich and lo and behold the taste was excellent just like my New York Deli!
The sandwich was a bit small and only had one egg, but the taste is what matters and next time, which there will be, I’ll order two eggs.
The sandwich was done very quickly also important. Just a bit on the expensive side but fresh and very tasty so I won’t complain about that. I recommend this Roby’s deli for the best egg sandwich in Towson.“

“Great, consistent place. Their cold cuts are always fresh and they're pretty good with servings. I highly recommend if you're looking for a quick lunch. Price is also good too - for $10, you get a sandwich, chips, and a 17 oz bottle of soda.“

“The Dominican latin food in Baltimore Maryland“

“Please visit this location when you can. Their breakfast bagels are SOOO so good! Don’t even bother going elsewhere for a breakfast sandwich because this place will exceed your expectation. They’re very quick, very nice and it is very clean inside. They do stop serving breakfast at 10:30, like most places, so do make sure that you get there early to order and be delighted.“

“First time lunch customer. I got there around 12:45pm and it was quite busy. Still, I got my order pretty quickly. I ordered the smoked turkey Reuben. Sandwich was good. A little on the small side from what I'm used to but still adequate. The staff seemed friendly. There were 3 people ahead of me who must be regulars. The staff knew their orders by heart which I think is cool. Overall, nice place with some good options. I'll be trying some more of them.“

“I love the food, because I'M a person who really likes to eat. Especially there fired potatoes and onions. But, do they deliver food platters or breakfast foods. My beautiful grey Persian cat name who Olive.“

“The food is actually delicious. Downside is when they first open, 1 person is taking orders (phone and in person), preparing the food, and cashing people out. There will be a line waiting, while they are on the grill, and they will actually answer the phone and take new orders before addressing persons in the line and then return back to the grill. They need more employees or something.“
