This is the place where I discovered wine. Jeff and the rest of the incredibly friendly and…read moreknowledgeable staff are there for every customer, from the newbie to the aficionado. I no longer live in the neighborhood, but I stop by whenever I'm in the area (if I had a car, I'd go a lot more often, but it's not really accessible by public transit from where I live). They offer wines at every price point -- including a good number that are under $10 (far more than you'll find at, say, Best Cellars or Curious Grape). The selections are thoughtful; they work with good importers, which is key. I haven't been here for a tasting since 2006, but for several years they held tastings on Fridays and Saturdays hosted by one of their key importers. Those tastings opened my eyes to the world of wine, much to the chagrin of my wallet. I learned about everything from Gewurztraminer to Sekt to Torrontes. It's been all downhill since then. I will be forever grateful to Fern Street Gourmet for starting me off -- and I will keep dropping by whenever I can!

Here, you can order savory pies (think meat pies) and sweet ones from chocolate to berry. For just a few dollars, I ordered to go a slice of their chocolate pie. Since it was in the fridge, it was very cold, but so tasty. It's like a chocolate chess pie and truly the best I've had. To make a day of it, order lunch across the lot at the BBQ spot and finish for dessert at the Kiwi Pie Shop.

Getting ready for Oktoberfest? This is the spot to stock up on brats and beer!…read more If you're looking for authentic German ingredients for a meal, German Gourmet Deli won't disappoint. They've got an excellent selection of brats and sausages, salamis, cheeses, pierogis, German novelty items, chocolates, and--of course--wine! The only downside? Not all staff seem familiar with German specialty foods. I actually asked about pierogis and was told they didn't know what they were... until I stumbled across them in the freezer myself. ‍ and BTW... the potato onion had a nice pepper flavoring. Still, the variety and authenticity make it worth the trip--just be prepared to browse and discover some gems on your own. Perfect for all your Oktoberfest cravings!

We also sampled baklava, and that was one of the best baklava I've ever had! The honey cake was good but not my favorite; I'd like to try again another day. Besides the delicious and hearty fare, we also enjoyed the sweet and helpful service and cozy atmosphere.

I ordered the Philly cheesesteak with no hot peppers or tomatoes with a side of onion rings. The sandwich was average, but the onions were cooked nice. The breading on the onion rings were a bit much. My husband ordered Miami Nice and he said it was very good- tender chicken, lots of flavor. I also got their lemonade and fresh baked cookies. Both were quite good. The staff was nice and we did not feel rushed to ordered quickly as it took some time to review the menu. We opted to do carry out, but they do have a good size seating area.
