13 Best Delis in Toronto

“My work got lunch catering (sandwich & salad combo) from Joanne's for a team retreat, and we were all very happy with it - there was great variety, and everything was delicious. The atmosphere seemed cozy and inviting - I'll be sure to dine in next time I'm in the neighbourhood. Highly recommended & thank you, Joanne's Deli!“

“Love the sandwiches and service is excellent . Totally recommend.“

“It was my first time attending today and honestly it was a great experience. There is an assortment of food items to choose from that a great quality. When I ordered my sandwich, the owner and the other attending staff were kind, accommodating (they adjusted their house sandwhich ingredients for me because I have dietary restrictions) and friendly. Definitely recommend for a good quality deli sandwich.“

“Amazing food, fantastic pricing and customer service that cannot be beat! If we are in the area again, will 100% be back!!“

“I went here years ago when I was working across the street building a dental office. As I speak about it, my mouth is salivating for the beef cheek sandwich. I just wish I didn’t live all the way in Hamilton. I have to make a trip out to you guys again!“

“OMG! I’m totally obsessed with this sandwich place! Everything is so good, you can really tell how much love they put into it. You guys HAVE to try it!

Mon dieu, ce sandwich est une tuerie ! Trop trop bon, on sent l’amour dans chaque bouchée ! Allez-y les yeux fermés !“

“Saw Uncle Sid's on doordash a few months ago and decided to give them a try. Was really impressed and have re-ordered several times. So far I've never been disappointed! Portions are generous, especially the sandwich meats! So far have tried the Montreal smoked meat, ham, tuna, but, and egg salad sandwiches. All great options!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — A Decade of Consistent Excellence

I have been coming to Mak Delicatessen on Lawrence Avenue for over 10 years, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional every single time. The consistency, quality, and care they put into their food is unmatched.

My go-to order is always Ćevapi, and it is prepared perfectly every visit—flavorful, authentic, and crafted with the same dedication I tasted on my very first day here. That level of consistency is rare, and Mak delivers it effortlessly.

This is the place I proudly recommend to anyone in Canada who wants to experience real, beautifully prepared Balkan food. Whenever I bring someone new, they leave amazed, full, and genuinely impressed.

Not only can you enjoy incredible meals here, but you can also explore and purchase a wide range of authentic Balkan products right on the spot—always at excellent prices. Mak Delicatessen remains, without question, a true 5 out of 5 gem.“

“Best Montreal smoked meat in Toronto“

“Great deli food to go and friendly service“

“Amazing food, fantastic pricing and customer service that cannot be beat! If we are in the area again, will 100% be back!!“

“Dined in here about 5 years ago and it was not impressive at that time, thought it was just a fast served food joint
Returned to give it another shot since egg salad sandwich is becoming a bit difficult to find. Ended up our brunch dining experience was great, besides the guy who sit us down was cold and has no facial expressions, the waitress with a strong European accent who took over was a sweet lady.
Food was great, the egg salad sandwich was just as expected, omelette was delish as well as the soup of the day (lentils), all freshly made. They also served good coffee.
Will see this place our regular go-to restaurant from now on.“

“Loved it , the food is delicious 😋.. and the kale 🥬 salad / amazing.“
