About Nielsen's Delicatessen

Nielsen's Delicatessen is a long-standing establishment known for its simple and tasty sandwiches, with the pastrami sandwich being a standout. The restaurant is family-friendly, with kid-friendly snack options available. While the food can be a bit pricey, customers can enjoy killer deviled eggs, a delicious crab salad, and the famous corned beef and liver spread on rye. The service is always fast and friendly, and everything is made to order. The homemade mayonnaise is highly praised, often considered better than other local delis. The brownies are a must-try, but customers should beware of the nuts included. Overall, Nielsen's offers a classic deli experience with great portions and a welcoming atmosphere.

Such a cute little spot full of history and delicious sandwiches! It's the oldest running Delicatessen in Houston and worth a visit!
I recommend the homemade potato salad (they make their own mayo!) and if I wasn't so stuffed (because their sandwiches are HUGE) I would have tried the cream cheese jalapeno poppers and deviled eggs!
They offer samples to ensure you enjoy what you eat, the staff is so friendly, and for desert: cookies and fudge balls! Thank you!

Delicious deli food…. Turkey with havarti on rye; roast beef on rye; tuna with havarti on pumpernickel; corned beef and liver paste on pumpernickel; deviled eggs; and pickled beets. We all left more than satisfied and loving every bite. Staff super friendly and pleasant. Thank you Michael Berry for this recommendation!

Amazing chicken salad. Best deviled eggs anywhere!
