Hubby wanted to stop in for a quick lunch and I am always game for trying something new. After looking at the menu, I decided on a turkey BLT as a grilled sandwich sounded good for a chilly winter day! The Zingerman's farm bread had such a good crust in it that I wound up buying a loaf to take home. Hubby ordered a 1/2 sandwich (Cuban) and cup of cactus chili. He asked for salami to be added to the sandwich cuz "that is how they make them in Miami". Both were very good! He also wound up getting a sweet treat afterwards. Overall, we really enjoyed our lunch and I would go back again. read more

I love the soups. Seriously the soups (butternut squash, beef barley, chicken noodle etc etc) are amazing! Every once and awhile I'll eat a sandwich or salad. I can't said I've had anything I've not liked here. The cornbeef sandwiches are great and the mustard tips it off. The ambiance is like a chill café. read more

Met a Middle School friend I haven't seen in many years for coffee while I am in town Picked this place because it is as close to a half way point as Incan get. Coffee is delicious, the spinach cheese pastry was delicious. I wish they had free coffee refills. Or told us if they do. Would come again!! read more

Wow! Wow! Wow! This place was amazingly good. We tried the turkey blt, butternut squash soup, chicken & dumpling soup & chicken pepper sandwich. We told the lady at the register it was our first time there. She gave us two muffins to try along with the choc chip cookie we bought. Everything was delicious. read more

It was our first time here, and the food was wonderful! Great choices (almost too many!) and generous servings! But the gem of this place is the friendly atmosphere. The staff are so kind and friendly, even the guests stop and say hello. Such a nice environment with great food! read more

One of the best Reuben sandwiches in this area. And the service is fast, which works well with my schedule.

This is my go to place for lunch during work when I don't have a ton of time. The soups are great, you must call for the soups of the day. My favorites are chicken noodle and beef chili. I usually get a 1/2 sandwich because the portions are large. The also have fresh bread that can be purchased whole or they can slice it on the spot. read more

I usually order the soup and 1/2 sandwich. It is plenty of food for lunch. The butternut squash soup is absolutely amazing and I have tried the Rueben with coleslaw. The bread is so tasty and the coleslaw makes this sandwich delicious. read more

You know the feeling you get when you find that place that's like Cheer's, where everyone makes you feel welcomed as you walk in--there Brioni's! I found this restaurant over 10yrs ago when I worked in the area; imagine my delight when I drove past and found them still there. Stopped by for a takeout sandwich, and was so happy to see the same staff still working here over a decade later! I love the staff, love the food, and love this little cafe!! If you're in the area stop by and try their amazing soups, and I highly recommend their Reuben!! read more

Came for the corned beef - the butternut squash soup won the prize ! Shared a bowl of the soup and a corned beef sandwich. Soup tasted excellent- kind of a cinnamon hint taste. Sandwich- the bread was good - rest of sandwich- very ordinary. Only had water - bill was $27 . Ample parking- very clean - friendly service. read more

Very inviting atmosphere from the moment you step through their doors. You're greeted with a warm smile and a hello. The food is so tasty (I had the BLT and white chicken chili). Both are full of flavor. I added a hot cup of coffee, and it was delicious. This place is pricey, so just be prepared for that. But, well worth it for a quality sandwich. Large portions, so you can share! I'll be back as often as I can. read more

If I could afford it, I would choose Brioni's over any other deli in the area. The food is so so good. I've been here several times and have had so many sandwiches (Reuben is my personal favorite), soups (butternut squash is the best), salads (spinach orzo for the win), pastries (pistachio muffin), coffees etc. Everything is the best! My only two tiny issues are that it is really pricey (you get what you pay for), and I can't always spend this much on lunch and I drive by every morning 45 mins before opening and can't get my morning coffee here! It is worth its own paragraph to say that you will not find a nicer staff anywhere. These are the most caring, hardworking, personable people ever. I am so happy that they have succeeded because they certainly deserve it! read more

Great sandwiches, staff is helpful, easy to get to! Like that they use Zingerman's bread and quality meats. read more

The egg, swiss cheese, and bacon croissant breakfast sandwich is amazing! Cozy little European style bakery with nice outdoor patio as well. Family owned and the staff is very friendly and delivers great service. Great coffee and crust baking items. Also serves lunch. read more

LeRoy: Well I had a wonderful cup of chicken wild rice soup. It was excellent. Along with a slice of wonderful bread and butter. And then I had a grilled turkey club on sourdough bread, enough for two people! Excellent again!!! I give it a five. Katie: I tasted the butternut squash soup. Now I have tasted all of the butternut squash soup in the area, and this one is probably the best one! The pesto chicken sandwich half was plenty for a meal. My only complaint is that I could not taste the pesto, but it seems like maybe they forgot to put it on, but overall it was delicious. The staff was very friendly as well. Caitlin: I ordered the pesto mozzarella sandwich. I asked to have it grilled, but the mozzarella chunks were so thick that the inside of the sandwich was still cold. I'm not saying the sandwich tasted bad - in fact it was extremely tasty!! But now knowing how thick the mozzarella is I'd ask them to please grill it until the cheese is melty. read more

Wonderful fresh food in a homely cafe; you feel like family. Highly recommend. Family operated.

this is definitely a GEM of a cafe! in addition to the salads & sandwiches, they have bread & pastries from Zingerman's bakery, it's a double delight! read more

Wonderful!! Everything fresh! A tad bit pricy but so worthwhile. Soups and sandwiches delicious.

Service was fast, friendly, the place is nice, but we were not happy with the food, I have always like the feta cheese but their feta cheese in my omelette was sour, like it was about to get bad. The server was very nice and she sent one of the cooks out to tell us they just received the Feta cheese the day prior and that they will make another meal in place of it, we declined, we didn't get charge for it. The toast is good, the breakfast sandwich (croissant) was fresh but it had bacon bits instead a bacon slice, the eggs (omelette) were dry. read more

Brioni Cafe & Deli - Omelet with spinach and feta cheese - Sandwiches Near Me - Clarkston, Michigan

Love this place! Nice layout, very friendly staff and delicious sandwiches! ....but considering the price for a sandwich is the same as a full lunch anywhere else, you have to ask : "Where's the beef???" I had a delicious sandwich, "Spicy Beef", but the meagre amount of Beef was barely present....a thin layer below all the other sandwich contents. For $14 I would expect a "stacked" beef sandwich to be proud of.! "Disappointing and penny pinching" read more

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this special place!! Been going for 10+ years...love it!! The bread-fantastic, sandwiches fantastic, soups fantastic, home brewed iced tea-fantastic. Always such a pressure the half sandwich is practically a full size so you can get the combo cup o soup and half Sammy for a good price price a slice of bread to go with soup.. Staff is Always Top notch, I only get there during the week if I get off work early but the weekend it's always hopping- nice patio to eat outside. Nothing bit love and praise for Larry and his crew (family). They have fantastic pastries too but I rarely indulge the sweets..If they have bread ends you can grab a bag of mixed for soup, spinach or other dip for croutons or whatever... read more

Friendly and quick staff- tasty smoothies. Great breakfast spot! Smoothies were made with purée but still taste good. Fresh veggies being cut and put into omelette. Fresh bread, too! Plenty of options. read more

Not a real Jewish style deli but decent. More like a sandwich shop. Not open on Sundays which is a little weird for a deli. Friendly staff.

Louise is the owner and was extremely helpful. Fantastic communication and got our order exactly how we wanted it. We ordered the muffaletta sandwhiches and they were out of this world! read more

Probably the best salad and sandwich I've had in a while my picky toddler ate her whole grilled cheese and she never does. I had the butternut squash soup it's a little sweet for my liking but is great. The tuna and ozro salad All amazing they need for seek their salad dressing read more

Good menu but expensive for what you get. They are always nice and friendly though. My only complaint is that they don't have iced coffee year round like everywhere else. The only option is pouring hot coffee over ice in off months which is not good. read more

-- TAKE-OUT/LUNCH REVIEW -- I was treated to Brioni by a client while working in the Clarkston area, and I was really delighted to try out a truly locally-owned deli; I think you can learn a lot about a community from their locally-owned brekky/lunch deli spots. If this is the case, then Brioni indicates that Clarkston has a great spot for locals to eat-in and take-out while not spending too much and pleasing many palates! Given that I was eating take-out with a large group of varying tastes and dietary needs, it was great that Brioni satisfied the more traditional deli desires of the good ol' Reuben and the big, cheesy bready panini sanwiches, while also catering to the more greeny and veggie folks. For me, their Mediterranean Salad was absolutely perfect, especially as a lunch portion. The Mediterranean Salad was comprised of big, fresh cucumber, tomato, and tri-color bell pepper chunks, mixed with fresh feta and olives. No messin' around with lettuce on this one! I added a grilled chicken breast for $3 more, and it was perfect - chilled so it matched the salad well, and well-portioned, not greasy, and not over-seasoned. It was served with dressing and a fresh slice of bread on the side. My client and friend who chose Brioni swears by the Orzo Soup; she commented every minute how delicious it was. The packaging and presentation of the take-out food was orchestrated really well. The food traveled nicely! No errors on this take-out order for 14. Well done, Brioni. read more
