I don't know where they source their deli meats; I just know that the taste is significantly better than anything I've gotten from the local grocery store. The roast beef is awesome. My wife loved her tuna salad sandwich. Even the deviled eggs are awesome.
I moved away from Houston about 25 years ago but always remembered this place. I finally found myself back here and it's exactly the same and delicious. Sandwiches seem bigger. Roast beef on rye with Danish Havarti is signature. Not sure why they haven't been granted some landmark status by the city. Please Nielsen's, never change.
Very overdue review here- eaten here my entire life and it has always been outstanding. The Turkey and Havarti cheese on wheat is my staple but the Roast Beef and the Chicken Salad are fantastic. The deviled eggs are excellent. My mother would be writing one as well if she did reviews- she eats here on a weekly basis. This place has been around forever and there is a reason why- it's just that good!
