Great service, great food, great interactions with the staff. Highly recommend. Ordered the New York sandwich and was excellent. I would have liked the meat to be a little thicker, but the way they serve it is fine. Very tasty. read more

I live in Florida now and I don't get to go there very very often, but the soup was great. The sandwich was great just like I remembered many years ago. Glad I was able to get over there. read more

Amazing dining experience. Good food. Great service!! Loved our breakfast last Saturday.

Their food is great, but the real surprise here is the French fries. They're the kind you get with the crispy stuff on the outside and you just know they're going to be great. I would get them alone, but the tuna melt is also incredible so it's a win/win every time. read more

Basic. Bacon seemed to be microwaved. Chewy and not crunchy. Eggs were good . Cheese melted nicely. But the bacon needs to be crunchy on an egg sandwich. Not chewy. read more

Amazing sandwiches. Cozy deli seating. Breakfast is also yummy. Staff is very attentive.

The food was rather good, the service was a decent but efficient pace, but the ambiance/decor well......I'm just gonna let you see for your self read more

I eat here just about monthly. I've been going for decades and I enjoy the changes. Yes, it is different. But the mish mash is still delicious. The Reuben is still the best in the city. And there is always Dr Browns Cream Soda. And I love that they keep something going that could easily have gone away, and they also made it new. read more

I don't live in the area and I hadn't been here in several years. I understand that it's under new management (ownership). The food was fresh and delicious and the service was top notch. Our waiter was attentive and helpful in making good suggestions. The prices are fair and I look forward to returning when I am in the area. read more

This place is a blast from the past. Delicious deli items that remind me of the New York and Miami places that I used to go to when they existed. Food is excellent and portions are large. Service is fast even when crowded. read more

This place had single-handedly gotten me through the flu this week. I've been a Fox's fan for quite a few years and used to go weekly before I changed jobs. The owners are taking the Fox's many have loved for decades and somehow managing to make it better. Now: to the food. A few of my go-tos are: - Fox's standard breakfast: eggs your way, latkes, toast, and your choice of meat. Get the pastrami. It gets crisped up beautifully on the grill. This meal is a great spin on a traditional diner breakfast. - Mish Mosh Soup: great if you're sick and also wonderful if you just like soup. It's a not too greasy, but not at all bland chicken broth (many of their soups use this as the base) with a large matzoh ball, kreplach beef dumpling, noodles and rice. This has been my sore throat remedy for years. - the Oy Vey sandwich: this one was a bit of an eye raiser, but bare with me. Chicken salad, bacon, grilled onions and a sharp & creamy mustard on rye. Why do it? I'm not sure, but I'm so happy they did. The flavors and textures balance extremely well and when a sandwich is on my mind, this is my first choice. Fair warning: This is not a sandwich to eat on a first date or during an important business meeting. You will embarrass yourself with this beautiful disaster. - the bagels: heavenly. I think these edge out many of the local bagel shops. Some may call this a hot take, but I fully stand by it. A good crunch and nice chew without skimping on toppings. Get them with lox & cream cheese, as an egg sandwich, or on their own. For me, they do not miss. If you are sick Fox's is the best place in the area for take out, hands down. If you are not sick, Fox's has some amazing take out, and a great dine-in experience as well. Either way, Fox's will fill your belly in the most delicious way. read more

Cute local diner with decent sandwiches! I had the chicken salad sandwich and it was jam packed! Such a filling lunch~ The staff was very kind and efficient. For dessert I had the lemon cookie which was a bit sweeter than I'd prefer. I also tried the lentil soup which was very thick and less soupy than I was expecting. Overall a decent lunch stop that was popping with a lot of locals! read more

My lady and I stopped by Fox's for lunch last week. We both ordered sandwiches. Excellent service , food and price ! Took home enough for another meal. Highly recommended read more

This place was hopping just before noon when we arrived but they were super accommodating of our group of 7. The service was fabulous and food was SO yummy. I had the Veggin Out sandwich which was delicious. The upgrade to fries was worth it...generous portion, perfect flavor and texture. Tried a bite of a potato latke and it was perfection. Must get those next time! Tried the potato salad too and it was also great. Everyone in the group enjoyed their meals. Can't wait to go back to try some more. read more

I tried this place today for the first time and loved it. The service was great, the food was delicious and it's close to my job, all wins in my book! I ordered a lot and haven't even tried it all before wanting to write a review. I ordered with a group of coworkers and they all really enjoyed their meals. I ordered the chicken salad plate which was very good. It comes with crostini, tomatoes, lettuce & onion. I also had one of the almond cookies. I love almond and this did not disappoint. Later on, I get to eat the mish mosh soup and a feta & spinach knish. I definitely recommend giving Fox's a try, I will absolutely be back! read more

Coming from the Catskills, we were looking for a good deli for some sammies and noshes and Fox's fit the bill. We had blintzes, latkes, a Reuben, and the New York, New York. All did not disappoint. We also took home some knishes, chopped liver, and halvah to enjoy later. Also, did not disappoint! Service was friendly. Atmosphere ...a NYC deli vibe. We'll be back :-) read more

Nice people. Food quality doesn't compare to the old Fox's. Used to be a regular. Now not so much. Soups lack proper ingredients as well as seasonings and flavor. read more

When we first got there, we were ignored. The table behind us, who was seated after us, got served first. It took us 30 minutes to get a sandwich and scoops platter, then the sandwich had wax paper in it from the cheese. Our server was trying, but something must've been off in the kitchen. read more

Pretty good lunch spot, and the kind of place you can comfortably bring your family and children. There is something for everyone, from breakfast and lunch options, to even dessert. I had a sandwich with macaroni salad, and both were honestly too strong for my tastes, everything was fresh and flavorful. Would come back, service was pretty good and I like the aesthetic of the restaurant. read more

I came here for a Yelp elite event and was very pleased with both the food and the service at this establishment. My fiancée and I ended up ordering more food than what the event provided and nothing disappointed. I highly recommend checking out this restaurant. To start off, the event provided us with a soup of my choice, with which I chose the mish mosh soup. The mish mosh is a combination of the matzo ball, kreplach, and chicken noodle/rice soups. I have to say, it's incredible how each the component of each individual soup really makes the soup taste like it's own. When you're eating the matzo, it tastes like a matzo soup, when you have the wonton, it tastes like the kreplach. It really was three soups in one and the ultimate option for those of us who have difficulty deciding what to eat. I absolutely loved the matzo ball, which I had never had before. It had a really interesting baking spice flavor that was just fantastic. For our main course, we had latkes with sour cream and applesauce along with the veggin' out with sauerkraut and Russian dressing. The latkes were quite delicious, they kind of reminded me of shredded hash brown. We ended up using the Russian dressing to dip them in and it was sublime. The veggin' out was pretty awesome, I have to admit. I'm always looking for a good vegetarian take on classic sandwiches and substituting roasted red pepper for corned beef was a wonderful idea for this spin on a Ruben. It was so tasty, yet light on the stomach and the red pepper added a very nice freshness to the whole sandwich. To finish, I was given my choice of cookie for the event and I picked their lemon cookie. I kid you not, this was the best lemon cookie I've ever had. It had a really strong lemon flavor, kind of acidic, which was mellowed out by it's sweet, sweet sugar. I want another one now! Overall, my experience was extremely positive and I can't wait to have lunch here again. There's tons of options for a food type that's pretty underrepresented in the area. Definitely check this place out! read more

First time getting a sandwich. Regular New York, New York was a good size. Great meat to bread ratio. Quick, friendly service. Side of Mac salad was good. Not too much mayo. I need to head back for breakfast and dessert. I'll be heading back read more

Fantastic service and friendly staff. The new owners are welcoming and attentive to customers and staff. The mish mosh soup is delicious and filling. That didn't keep me from devouring the Reuben. Advertised as the best and they did not lie! I highly recommend having lunch at this Rochester gem! read more

Really glad they reopened for dine in after covid but things just aren't the same as pre-pandemic. I've been going to Fox's since I was a kid and the portions continually get smaller and prices get higher year after year. I won't stop going, but it has become somewhat of a treat rather than a go to regular lunch spot. They also got rid of Saturday hours which makes it a lot harder to get to! The food last time I was there was just as delicious as always but lots has changed too. Kreplach and Mish Mosh are my family's favorite soups and someone usually has Three's Company, My Generation, and New York, New York. read more

Richard K took me to lunch here a while back and I don't know why I did not review it my bad. We had a table and this place had a little bit of everyone here age wise and yes they have regulars. Our server was nice and efficient. I got some matzoh ball soup it was good and I got a Ruben and as always I ask for a side of thousand island dressing. It was all tasty and I will of course be back. I'm use to The Bagel (now closer back in Illinois) Manny's as well in Chicago and 2nd Ave Deli in NYC. Is this place good, yes is it great.. you be the judge. If you leave here hungry seriously it's on you ok. Go! They share a lot with a strip mall. Cheers read more

I had the best Reuben I've ever had here. The macaroni salad us really good and the staff is lovely, too!

Decided to go here on a whim, wasn't expecting much but I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered The Rachel to go and was out the door in like 3 minutes. Got back to the office and wasn't disappointed. The sandwich had a pile of pastrami, a good amount of sauce, and the bread had a good crunch like all grilled sandwiches should. I will definitely be going back to try their other sandwiches in the near future. read more

Fox's Deli - The Rachel - Soup Near Me - Rochester, New York

3.5 I've been here twice now for lunch with some coworkers. Both times we were sat down immediately by the older woman whom I believe is the owner. Overall the staff was nice, but they seem overwhelmed and a tad understaffed. I realize they are only open for a short window...but waiting 10-15 minutes to place an order doesn't quiet work for my hour lunch break. Fox's has an abundance of sandwiches selections, both hot & cold. Typical of a Jewish deli. I'd also like to note that the meat on these sandwiches towers high! In addition, they have many soup choices as well as burgers and chicken sandwiches (none which I have ordered). Lastly, take some time to peruse their cold case. It contains lots and lots of Jewish deli side dishes and jumbo pickles. Shout out to them carrying Knish's (and in many different flavors). I was thrown off by their shape and size. I'm used to square Knish's. They also look a bit denser than what I am used to.. so, again, I have yet to try it. On my first trip I split the New York, New York and a Reuben. Reuben is a classic and pretty dang good. The New York, New York was good, but would have been great if they grilled it like the Reuben. ...... maybe I will request it next time! Sandwiches come with chips, which doesn't do it for me. Second trip I noticed they did not have "appetizers" on their menu. I was jonesing for some loaded cheese fries. I asked if the waitress if they had jalapenos, onions, bacon, sour cream, and cheddar. She said Yes to each.. so I asked for her to throw that on some well-done fries. It was good..... but not great. The cheese wasn't really melted, so the toppings didn't really stick. But, it did satisfy my craving for the day. The décor- circa 80's and ugly. I wouldn't mind if it was a 50 - 60's era diner. But I am struggling to get past the powder blue and pink wallpaper. Then they have all of these characterchures on the walls. Yikes! Time to redecorate folks! read more

What??? I haven't reviewed Fox's yet? For shame... this is one of my favorite spots to go to for lunch. The menu is so vast & packed with goodies. Where to begin? First off, if you just want a deli sandwich, they're right up there with the best in the area. Where they REALLY shine, however, is the other items on the menu. Great Reuben sandwich, hot corned beef, & I love their southwestern sandwich (which is a turkey Reuben) and, of course, the aptly named Everybody Loves Ryeman. What really get's my motor started is the burgers... very tasty! If you want some added starch, their french fries are a treat as well. While I'l avoiding potatoes these days, I can't help stealing a few from my lunch partner's plate when they're not looking! Soups are always a pleasure here as well.. the soup of the day varies, but standards like Matzo ball soup & Mish-Mosh are on daily. I can't help but order a can of Dr. Brown's cream soda with my meal... just too good. Can you tell I'm thinking about lunch @ 9:30 in the morning? I am so there... read more

Three of us ordered 3 egg sandwiches at 1pm and waited 45 minutes for 1 person to get served and eat his meal while the other 2 waited. We took the other 2 sandwiches to go. Absolutely terrible customer service. Server was clueless as was the rest of the staff. Never going back there again ever. read more

Haven't been to Fox's in decades. Glad I went. I still miss the traditional appetizers you used to get way back in the day of pickled beets, cole slaw, and pickles. But pickles seem to be making their way back as it was included with my salad which, which is wonderful. The kreplach soup was very good. I had the hot pastrami on rye. The sandwich was a bit small but was delish. Can't wait to see what they can grow this place into read more

What is old is new again! So, I have been anxious to get to Fox's Deli in Winton Place to assess the offerings at this well-established Rochester fixture since it had transitioned to a new family to run ... I was not disappointed! The place has the same bones, the same character, and the same delicious staple of offerings as the Fox's that we have all grown to love; and the sandwich selection is quite impressive offering almost 3 dozen combinations as well as the opportunity to build your own; oh, included in this impressive selection is their classic Rueben and a nice vegetarian offering. I was able to pop in on a Saturday recently to pick up some deli salads for the weekend ... for this excursion, I chose the egg salad, which was creamy and chunky, simple yet elevated ... not sure how they do it ... but it was amazing. The next thing I picked up was the chicken salad, this has always been an Achilles heel for me as I love a proper chicken salad, this one delivered the goods ... full of perfect chicken breast meat engulfed in a creamy and savory mixture that was equally remarkable alone as it was on bread. Then finally I selected the coleslaw ... this coleslaw was divine and triggered all the right senses as it danced in my mouth! I picked up some sweets, the lemon cookies happen to be a favorite for me as I am a sucker for anything lemon. The service was genuine and warm, like your favorite neighborhood deli from a time past with an updated vibe that marries tradition with all that is good today. All this to say, if you have not stopped in yet, treat yourself ... if nothing else, plan on your picnic deli salads to come from Fox's and be prepared to impress your family and guests! read more

I tried Fox's 4 times since the change in ownership. On the positive side, the sandwiches are still as good as previously-- although the menu is now down to one page and my favorite (the southwestern) didn't make the cut. The sandwiches are chock full of all the good stuff and the bread is yummy. I do miss the plastic lids that they used to place the sandwiches on to keep the bottoms from getting soggy. Cons: The "pickle' that comes with each sandwich is 1/8 of a whole pickle sliced lengthwise. Not really a pickle. The mac salad is horrible. Clear runny sauce with the macaroni floating in it, and not too much in it as far as seasoning or anything other than runny sauce and macaroni. And the potato salad? Paid $4.50 for a side, not only was it small but I could tell it was commercially made from a much larger batch. Potatoes all cut in perfect little 1/4 inch squares, not quite cooked all the way through, doused in mayo, and nothing else. Of both the mac salad and the potato salad, I took one bite and threw the rest away. And can we discuss the matzo ball soup? The matzo balls were not as tender, the broth was an awful brown color, and again, lacked any real flavor at all. 2 stars for the sandwiches ( alone they are 5 stars). So the verdict is I will keep ordering sandwiches and will lament the loss of the other menu items. read more

I'm not from Rochester and had been looking for a good deli. It's an understatement to say that they met my expectations. Super friendly and personable staff that is more than willing to answer any and all questions and give great recommendations. First time I stopped and had the Reuben and a knish. It was one of the best Reuben's I've ever had and the knish was fantastic. Generous portions and great prices. And the icing on cake would be the Dr. Brown's soda selection! A must try if you have never been. 100% will be a regular. read more

Here's the thing. If you keep the name of a true institution in Rochester, don't change the recipes!! We tossed out the chicken soup that we picked up. Unfortunately, we are not hearing good reviews from our friends. read more

Id like to start off by saying they are suuuuper nice. Very friendly. I wish they opened before 8am because I'd go before work. However, I tried getting a plain bagel with butter and the butter didn't fully penetrate throughout, so there was just dry bagel. I then came back a few weeks later to give them a second chance...it is meh (currently eating it as I write this review). It does not look appetizing and the consistency of the bagel isn't great either. I am a downstater, so I feel like I know when I have had a good bagel..and this wasn't it. It has the consistency of a tim horton's bagel. Not inedible, but leaves room for improvement, esp bc my bagel is black. Kind of looks like they didn't clean whatever they used to either spread the butter or the toaster. read more
