A small market features a vast array of imported treats, including jams, chocolates and cookies.

Leven Deli makes pastrami from scratch, starting with whole beef brisket that’s cured before being smoked in a process that takes a total of twelve days. Then, it’s loaded up on fresh-baked rye or sourdough bread for an eye-rolling combo of homemade goodness. While the Golden Triangle spot doesn’t have the broad range of classic […]
In 2018, Rosenberg’s owner Joshua Pollack added this East Coast-style deli in Five Points to his growing collection of New York-inspired concepts, which includes Famous Original J’s. Lou’s has a solid selection of both hot and cold sandwiches, available in full or half sizes – and a full is enough to split or last for […]
Masterpiece Luncheonette is the streamlined version of Masterpiece Deli, relaunching in spring 2017 with a menu of bowls and sandwiches designed for shorter ticket times for the business crowd.
New York Deli News is Denver’s answer to the famed Carnegie Deli of Manhattan, with a few important differences. Although the plates are substantial, typically heaped with corned beef, pastrami and brisket imported from New York, they’re not huge – and neither is the bill. More significantly, the servers are friendly and patient, giving diners […]

The Old Fashioned has held down this corner for two generations, beginning with Tom Panzarella, a born-and-bred Buffalo native who came to Denver in 1976; Tom’s son Dave now works the counter. On the outside, the silvered windows are covered with hand-painted advertisements for deli sandwiches, calzones and Sahlen’s hot dogs — the only Buffalo-style […]
Not only is Paris open long after other restaurants have shut their doors, but it opens back up in time for that first cup of java. While away the wee hours downing espresso and browsing through used books while munching on sandwiches, salads, soups and eclectic pizzas.
Once the home of Brendan’s Pub blues club, Pat’s Cheesesteaks now occupies this subterranean spot. In addition to serving up some of the best cheesesteaks in town, the spot also brings in DJs on the weekends and hosts beer pong and the Denver Poker Tour during the week.
Husband and wife Chris and Lindsay Lyons purchased the three-decade-old Deli Italia in 2018 and saw the potential to transform it from an Italian market to a full-service restaurant with an expansive menu that includes subs, appetizers, salads and a retooled version of pizza.

When Josh Pollack moved to Colorado from the East Coast, he lamented the lack of good bagels. Years later, after a short-lived career in the mortgage business and other entrepreneurial ventures, he decided to change that, and opened Rosenberg’s. Pollack is so obsessed with correct bagel-making technique that he reconfigures his water, adjusting the mineral […]
When you’re talking about a true Italian deli experience, it’s only the meat that matters. At Salvaggio’s, the countermen understand this. No one’s there for conversation at this spartan, six-table Boulder storefront. The customers come for the sandwiches – in particular, a nice prosciutto on a roll or the fantastic red bells and mozz – […]
This casual deli chain got its start in the Vail Valley in 2003 and now has locations in six states, with two in downtown Denver as well as stores in Westminster and Arvada. While Smiling Moose is a blossoming chain, the company runs each location as a local restaurant, staffed by employees who live in […]

“Authentic” is the word at Solomon’s Grocery and European Deli, where the proprietors — Bukharan immigrant Solomon Gurzhiev and his family — are bend-over-backwards friendly, the coolers are stuffed with a dozen varieties of kefir and farmer’s cheese, and mom Gurzhiev whips up homemade pelmeni on request. It might be a long way from Uzbekistan […]

Fat, overstuffed sandwiches made on thick, chewy Il Fornaio breads, along with interesting panini combos and snappy service, make the Pickle a top stop for the local lunch crowds. And, of course, everything comes with a spicy pickle.
Spinelli’s opened in Park Hill in 1994, but it feels like it’s been around far longer. The friendly neighborhood market is stocked with essentials as well as some gourmet finds – but before you browse, head directly to the deli counter in the back to place your order from a long menu of sandwich options.

The original six-seater takeout place on Colorado Boulevard was founded by a guy from Pennsylvania, and even though Taste of Philly is now owned by folks from South Jersey, they still know how to make a real Philadelphia cheesesteak. All in all, it’s a perfect sandwich in every way. As an added bonus, there’s a […]
