12 Best Delis in Minneapolis

“The food was incredible! The service was awesome. It was so nice to be able to step over to the grocery store to purchase a few of the things that we got to try at lunch and find some other really unique items as well. That Halvah!❤️❤️ I hope to make this a regular stop“

“I have been visiting Emily's since I was a kid. The food is authentic, fresh and of high quality. Portions have gotten smaller and prices are a bit high but as is at most places now. We went this last visit with a large group of 18 for a family birthday party, so we reserved the seating area upstairs. Our waiter was accommodating and friendly. We weren't able to get every order complete because they ran out of meat pies but they did substitute to our liking. One meal was missing but the charge was taken off the bill. We did end up staying half an hour past closing but the staff did not make us feel rushed or unwanted. We did apologize, thank them and tip accordingly. So with a few mistakes we made due just fine and I will always be a returning customer. Excellent food as always!“

“I finally made it to Marty’s Deli and while I am not a breakfast sandwich kind of guy, this is the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had! The taste and texture were super fresh and scrumptiously delicious; and it satisfied me for several hours! I will be back to try a lunch sandwich in the very near future.“

“Great sandwiches with great environment. Would be nice if they were open until midnight 😉 Anyways my place to eat, they have a great variety of sandwiches.“

“What a wonderful restaurant! We’ve lived in South Mpls forever; I can’t believe it’s taken us this long to visit El Norteno. The food was great and the service was even better. It’s certainly a popular spot - tables were full & lots of people were coming in for takeout orders. I’m excited to enjoy their patio space once it warms up!“

“Hands down my favorite spot for breakfast and lunch. The most authentic East Coast deli experience to be found in MPLS — only made better with an incredible Midwestern family-style customer service. Whenever I'm craving the comfort of a pastrami sandwich or potato salad (seriously, don't miss this), need to boost my morning with a power breakfast sandwich, or feel the need to health it up with a Southwest Turkey Wrap, I bee-line for Brothers. When crunched for time be sure to order ahead with Ritual app. Never disappointed.“

“I was staying in the University of Minnesota and this place was a life saver when I did not want to eat in the dining hall. Their falafel sandwich was genuinely some of the best falafel I have ever had and their fries were undoubtedly the best fries I have ever had. The service was super quick and we got our food in under 10 minutes consistently. The staff was super friendly and the restaurant had a great atmosphere to it. Would strongly recommend if you are in the area!“

“Restaurant was under construction when I visited. This dish was absolutely phenomenal. Warm and nutty- savory and a splash of tang and spice when you add the lemon and sauce provided.

Stuff was friendly and enjoyable. They were able to make recommendations on the menu even amidst construction.

Beautiful place- would absolutely recommend!“

“rancher o with bacon and Philadelphia cream cheese“

“Local, corner store. Have a little of everything, and variety of different cultures food and drinks.

May feel like a rough area but its overall pretty decent. The folks who run the store are nice gentlemen and are always respectful.“

“The hot food here is the definition of a hidden gem - go for the special, whatever it is. Great food, great prices, friendly and professional staff - highly, highly recommended for comfort food. The price of certain things like sodas seem a bit high, but whatever,.“
