On top of that, our server was such a kind soul and the place seems very local just by the interior and the people who go there.

Medium pastrami was decent - relatively subtle tasting & moist enough; fatty would be even better. Bread was fresh with some crustiness. There was both yellow & honey Dijon mustard at the table. The pickle was thick (even if a half pickle) & juicy. The coleslaw was great - not just crisp but with some spices in it.

I had a Reuben sandwich platter which came with a Pickle, Cole Slaw, and Potato Pancakes (Latkes) though I could have had French Fries instead with the platter. The Reuben sandwich had a very generous portion of Pastrami and the taste was excellent. If you are in this area of Bloor West (which in this area is a bit sketchy I have to say), and looking for a quick lunch with a great Ruben or other cold cut sandwich, this is your place.

The staff was very attentive and answered all our questions with great patience. After we placed our order it arrived at our table in just a few minutes. Everyone raved about the large portions and the exceptional quality of our food. Although it was around $70 for the 3 of us i think it was worth it. I haven't enjoyed a meal like this in a very long time. Dining mid afternoon is unquestionably a good idea , missing both the morning rush and the dinner rush as well.

She shared with me what was fresh and made sure that it was on my plate. You cannot go there without having a black cherry with the combo or anything smoked meat. It's a must. I had tried other deli's proclaiming Montreal style smoked meat, but they all were so salty that not only did your blood pressure go through the roof, but you ended up with a giant headache. I will not disclose names. Here, the balance of flavours is ideal and just salty enough. Your timing will be everything with regards to finding parking and the noise level. Going between rush hour periods will guarantee a better experience. Enjoy!

Scheffler's Deli sells premium, high-quality cured cold cut meats from all around the world. They also offer a wide variety of cheeses by the weight. And if you're looking for gourmet food products ranging from olives, antipasti, condiments and imported nuts like Marcona & Valencia almonds, this is one place where you want to get them. Once or twice a year I make it a point to buy my all time favourite cheese, St. Andre Triple Cream in this store and the owner, Odysseas always gives me a good deal when buying a whole wheel of this cheese. I also love cooking international cuisine and this is where I get authentic and hard to find ingredients like Peruvian sweety drop peppers, Bulgarian style feta cheese, Jamon serrano, etc. Family-owned store plus dedicated and friendly staff (especially Sandra), you will always have a great experience shopping here!

Mainly a takeout spot but there are a couple of tables to dine-in. So many options - from deli sandwiches to burgers to pizza and pasta - that you'll never run out of things to try.
