    Very fresh and very professional, I recommend this place if you want a healthy dinner. They give you enough to eat for two days.

    I asked if there was a combo for 4+ people, but was told there isn't. I wasn't too hopeful- it's not listed on their menu, but it's pictured here on Yelp. The seasoning on the shawarma could be applied with a more liberal hand, in my opinion. Though I wouldn't consider myself a traditionalist, I much prefer the cone shawarma (layers of meat and fat on a rotating spit) to the steak served here. I didn't detect any tangy sumac goodness in the fattoush dressing (which is what I adore so very much about the salad)- and that left me unfilled. I requested beets on my fattoush, but was disappointed when I got home and found beef adorning my salad instead (an understandable miscommunication). I'd go back again for the curry, and the falafel.

    I got the sandwich, my friend got the meal

    First day open, came to try this place out. Started off with one of the best lentil soups I've had in a very long time. Had a chicken shawarma sandwich with shawarma fries! I also ordered some falafel and they were awesome.

    My salad made the right way with the right type of lettuce, Romaine

    Everyone was super duper friendly right when we walked in. I can't stress that enough: these people…read moreare very kind! Don't worry about the weird setup, it's part of the charm. Remember: Bring cash! Used a card, and the cashier had to type it in manually (it was nice of them to do that). Now for the food - We got a few meats--turkey pastrami, corned beef and a "wildcard" (I let the staff pick, and whatever it was it was good). We also got the special spices etc. I do prefer a more of an Italian sandwich on a hard roll, so I'm not sure the soft onion roll is for me. If you like a cold sandwich un-toasted and generally basic with a bit of a twist, you will love this! My husband and I enjoyed the sandwich (split it, and they put mayo on half at my request). It's a charming spot, quality food and I'm glad we tried it. Skip the spicy potato salad. It was bland, sadly.

My friends have always ordered carryout, but ordering in person was so much more enjoyable. While the interior is by-and-large a throwback to the past; the staff is most definitely a breath of fresh air. They're all kind, patient, and make the best sandwiches! I had the 2 meats (turkey and turkey pastrami) with everything sans pickles plus love spice on an onion roll. I'm beyond satisfied and it was divine! The price was reasonable for a deli sandwich at $10 before tax and 4% card fee. I usually go for corned beef at the deli, but this was a leaner yet equally tasty option in an attempt to be more health conscious. Needless to say, I'll be back! Thanks, ladies!

    Came here for the burger week, and the door was open and people working inside. I came in to order…read moreand after me being in there for a few minutes the guy told me they arent open. lol. First of all the burger week place should have had open/close times listed on the app. Second, it's sliced deli meat... you can't slice up some lunch meat a few minutes before 11am. That's crazy. Edit: came back next day and actually HAD the sandwich I came for. Sandwich was VERY good. A little too much sauce but otherwise great. Flavor was good. Customer service still wasn't the best. Took 30 minutes for a sandwich. But I did get a free pickle.

    While cruising through the heart of Royal Oak, I noticed this little deli shop, calling my name…read morepast apartment buildings and local scenery. They have an extensive menu to include vegetarian options which was nice to see. They also have many local brands to include chips, sodas, and other small local business products (caramelized nuts, baked goods, etc.)! On the topic of local businesses, they also had a board which allowed local owners to post business cards and event alerts, fantastic for drawing the community together. Now, I ordered a Reuben as a lover of corned beef and sauerkraut. It was delicious and sizeable, a fair portion size for the money as well. The chips were also delicious having gone for the salt, pepper, and onion variety. A solid crunch and bursting with flavor. Among the positives I have two negatives, both of which are not adequate enough to lower their star ranking. Firstly, it took around 20-25 minutes to get our food after ordering. I rarely hold timing against a restaurant as having worked in food, I know lunch rush exists and things happen. To mitigate this (for those in the area) I believe they have an online ordering system, which I would recommend utilizing! Secondly, they do not have indoor seating, so it is a very grab and go type establishment. This is counteracted by the multitude of benches around Royal Oak, though it would be nice to have some amount of seating, especially for those with accessibility needs and those waiting on their food. Overall, Oak House Deli is solid and delicious and I will definitely stop by again when I am in the area!

The first sandwich was cheese only no mustard on an onion roll. The second order was a large corned beef with everything separate everything, separate the bread separate both Swiss and American cheese separate the corned beef give me thousand island on the side for the extra price that they charge for the thousand island give me some mustard and give me two corn beef, eggrolls. The person was half listening. The price was over $50. I waited about 15 minutes and when I got my order, I looked at it and they had done exactly what I told them not to do on the sandwich that I asked for everything to be separate because I don't like soggy bread so I wanted to keep my bread separate. I wanted to keep my onion roll separate so I could toast it when I got home, but they gave it to me full sandwich bread on top of everything and when I let them know that they started talking back at me and as I was trying to tell them what they did wrong they weren't listening and they walked away. I hear ya, see how can you hear me if you're walking away I was so angry because it's not the first second third fourth or fifth time that they've gotten my order wrong and I had to stand there and make them get it right but this time was the worst time because the guy at the window got mad at me when I asked him. Do y'all answer the phone I've been calling Y'all over a period of weeks and you never answer the phone so he just went back there and did what he wanted to. I was so angry. I will never go back there again. Never when I got the sandwich. I had to go to another Coney Island just to get an onion roll to put on my sandwich. It was the nastiest sandwich that I've ever had from there, I had to make them give me the thousand islands that they had already charged me extra for, and I swear, as I have promoted them for being a black own restaurant with good corned beef, I will let everybody know how disrespectful those young people were at the window to disrespect me and yet charge me $50 for two sandwiches. I will never go back there again and ever give them a chance to disrespect me again good riddance since your disrespect means more to you than listening to your customers. I screamed " I am tired of this shit take this back and get my order right now or give me my money back. Never again. Not me. Several times, same shit. No more. $50 for 2 sandwiches in this economy. Bye! I will give them zero stars if I could.

I ordered the chicken cutlet with two different sauces, the zucchini fritters, the Tuscan kale salad, the mascarpone polenta, and the Valdo sandwich. Everyone knows the chicken is awesome so o won't go into detail about it. The mascarpone polenta was creamy and flavorful. It still light and not dense which polenta can sometimes be. I'd get it again. Even though everything was delicious, the kale salad was probably my favorite. The kale was tender so it was prepped perfectly since it can be tough otherwise. I love how it was dressed. Every bite had dressing but it wasn't dripping wet. I ate half of it a few days later and it was just as tasty and fresh without being wilted at all. Great flavor and texture with the toasted breadcrumbs, pecorino cheese, and some brightness from lemon. I'd go back for the salad alone but when I do go, I'm sure we'll place another order for all the goods again.
