Came here after reading great reviews and was disappointed. We ordered the loaded latkes and the server gave us the option of smoked meat gribenes or chilli as the topping. We went with the smoked meat gribenes option and was served the latkes with what tasted like burnt bacon bits. They were completely scorched and bitter. We asked the server and she said “they’re supposed to be like that.” This establishment was also cash only, and the sign says they accept e-transfer but the server said not on that particular day. We had to pay to draw cash from the ATM, then pay upfront when ordering, and the server then asked if we wanted change so I felt pressure leave a tip before even being served.

It may have been the driest sandwich I’ve ever had and the bread was really crumbly. The service was really friendly, and great atmosphere but i would not return again because the food is not great. Meal type: Lunch Food: 1 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
Embarrassed to admit that I had never even heard of this place, but my spouse and I were craving Reubens when we were in the city and google recommended this amazing place! I know it sounds over the top to say, but it was genuinely one of the best meals I've ever had in my life. The Reuben was so good that we could barely speak the whole meal unless it was to rave about how delicious it was between bites!! Seriously, I can't wait to go back I wish we'd had time to eat in, the atmosphere was incredible and the staff was super friendly, funny and kind! 100/10!

This is a great old deli atmosphere restaurant highly recommended. Jasmine is quick with your order with big smiles I'll definitely be back.
If you’re into Smoked Meat than you need to hit up Hali Deli. I’ve been eating here for years and I’ve only recently tried the Reuben instead of the smoked meat sandwich and I’ve converted to the Reuben from now on! It’s so good and so are the fries. Their brunch is tasty as well but it’s only on weekends. I really like their Benny for brunch but they stop serving it early so get there before 2pm if you want to try it. CASH ONLY.
