I've been coming to Gold's since I was a kid in the '80s, and walking in still feels like stepping into a time warp. The place hasn't changed much, but that's exactly the point. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. The food is consistently solid, the smoked meats and all the deli standards are always on point, and somehow the prices haven't climbed the way they have at some of the much more bougie spots around town. It's an old-school Jewish-style deli that's stayed true to itself, and Westport is better for it. Long live Gold's. read more

I stopped by here for a sandwich to go and also picked up 2 knishes and a small container of coleslaw. The pumpernickel bread I requested for my sandwich had such a great taste...and the tuna was super as well. The pickles given with the sandwich were fantastic. Service was super friendly. You can choose to sit down to eat or order to go. Lots of choices for dining and also in freezers and cases: meats, cheeses, salads, soups, take away ready to eat meals, knishes, sweets and desserts. Parking in very busy lot. I can't wait to come back. read more

Very nice place with good, fast service. It's popular and in a strip mall, so there's parking outside. There's seating inside, and you an see photos of famous people who love their food. The best part, for me, is the area in the front where you can see the selection of things they sell. The rugelach and desserts, especially. I've had the corned beef, matzo ball soul, and chopped chicken liver. Everything is fresh, and great quality! read more

Golds is a Westport institution and it is worthy of the designation. We have been getting our deli there for six decades and it is still our go to spot for bagels, lox, whitefish salad, hard rolls, pastrami, corned beef, tongue, pickles, rugelah - all the all stars generation after generation. It would not be a weekend in Westport without it. read more

I've been noshing at Golds since 1968 and it's just as delicious now as it ever was. Reuben's are a decadent treat. Tuna salad is perfect every time. Roast beef is rare. Turkey's fresh roasted. Bagels and Baked goods are fresh. Even the frozen take home items are worth keeping in stock. It thrills me to no end that not only do my kids appreciate Golds, but now my grandchildren do as well. Bravo Golds! read more

Great tongue on rye Huge sandwich Ate half 2days later and still tasted great Very pleasant staff Next trip to Westport will definitely stop at Golds read more

Love! Like I'm back on the Lower East Side in the 1950's, Gold's is a classic Jewish delicatessen offering a mouth-water selection of deli favorites that bring me right back to my youth, growing up around places like this. The pastrami on rye, corned beef and brisket, liverwurst, tongue, matzo ball soup, knish, lox and cream cheese, chicken liver, NY cheesecake, etc. are the best anywhere. Gold's has been rated the best pastrami sandwich in Connecticut and I agree. I just discovered Gold's and luckily live nearby, so I'll be back soon! read more

A great New York style deli right here in Westport, CT! The Super sandwich is their signature and the name is a perfect description of the sandwich! Soft rye bread tops a combo of piled high corned beef and pastrami with slaw, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing. Every bite is heaven, but you have to open your mouth wide because of how big the sandwich is! It comes with two pickles, one old dill and one new dill and they're both good. Staff is always friendly and the deli counter has a ton of great stuff. read more

A Westport classic. Always perfection. Clean and delicious delicatessen. No surprises, just good!

Best test ever 5 times cheaper than katch and 2nd avenue deli great hospitality fast service and many more

Ridiculously over priced! Left without ordering a thing. Clearly not popular as only one other couple was there.

Wonderful place. Chopped liver sandwich was excellent. The kasha knish was very ,very dry...needs gravy. Terrific waitress.

Definitely worth a try !! It was quick easy and definitely something that looks authentic!! read more

Best Jewish Deli in CT. Reins deli in Vernon CT also very good but the Lox and Nova at Golds beats out every place in NY except Russ and Daughters. Golds "Super" sandwich is the bomb! Pastrami and corned beef with coleslaw, Russian, Swiss and mustard. The end... read more

Just look at that sandwich! Think Carnegie Deli but in Wport. Making me hungry just writibg this.... an a pickle! Oh my.......

The food and the service is amazing. Nice deli to dining in or take food to go! You won't be disappointed everything is delicious! read more

Goals is an old school delicatessen. It's a throwback of a small business owned by a husband and wife. They have little staff turnover because of the kindness that the owners provide to both customers and staff. Britt and Westport so the food turnover is significant meaning the food is always fresh. Their baked goods and breads come from some of the best sources in the region. The food is always someplace between good and great. read more

Stopped here for lunch the other day and it is in a small shopping center. When you enter there is a retail and deli space upfront and the restaurant is in the back of the store. If you are eating there than just sit at an open table and a waitress will take your order. I had the super sandwich with a black and white cookie. The sandwich was delicious and a good size. I added extra sauce to my sandwich but they put that on the side so you can doctor it up as you see fit. The black-and-white cookie was delicious and fluffy. I would definitely stop here for lunch again when I'm in the area. read more

Gold's Delicatessen - The Super - Delis Near Me - Westport, Connecticut

Very old school deli with lots of history. Had high hopes for this place but for me it was not bad but not exceptional. Had the pastrami on non seeded rye and it was fairly good but does not stack up to Greenblatt pastrami (now closed unfortunately due to pandemic). People here are very nice however, and place seems trapped in time. read more

We lived in Westport CT for over 40 years and got to know the original owner, Julius, and his staff. It was our go-to place in town despite the competition. Julius ran a tight ship, and the food he served was fresh, homemade, high-quality deli food. The counter staff and servers were always pleasant, and they treated customers and their children like family. They would offer a child a pretzel stick or sweet ( with the parent's approval) gratis. We recently visited and we're extremely disappointed. When I came in through the back door, I walked past cases of canned College Inn chicken broth and didn't mention anything. So much for homemade. The chicken noodle soup my wife ordered was tasteless, and my matzoh ball soup should have been called cotton ball soup. A liverwurst sandwich tasted like understuffed packaged supermarket deli meat smothered in wilted red onion and pressed between 2 pieces of decent rye bread. Prices are nothing to write home about, but it is Westport and located on the Post road. The Gold's we remember has become a tired old place in need of a deep cleaning, and we'll not be back. read more

Everything about Gold's is wonderful. I have been going there since I was in grade school and they never disappoint. Service is great, they still remember me as a kid. Corned beef and their pastrami can't be beat- really! And I love their matzoh ball soup. Long may it run!! read more

Having not visited in a few years, we stopped for sit down lunch. If we didn't order the pastrami/corned beef to share the regular sandwich would have left us hungry. The corn beef sandwiches were sparce in addition of meat, let's say it looked like a salami sandwich. The rye bread was dry and almost to the point of being stale. Pickels served were tasteless, the place was packed, but I'm writing them off for any future visits. Big disappointment from my past experiences at Golds! read more

Pretty new to Fairfield and these are some of the best bagels I've ever had. We got bagels, cream cheese, and lox here and I can't say enough. Everything tasted perfect and made in house and the staff were really nice when ordering. Can't wait to come back and get more bagels and would highly recommend! read more

Yum! UPDATE: My dad's favorite deli around the Fairfield County area. I too have enjoyed their sandwiches. They have been here for a long time. This is really my dad's review as he has frequented the place more then me. (And asked me to look them up on Yelp and mention the awesome pastrami Reuben which I am happy to do.)Everyone: The Pastrami Reuben is awesome!! My dad is VERY picky about his pastrami so if he loves it..well it's going to be pretty good. I am not a big pastrami eater at all but honestly the few times I've been here I've loved it as well along with other family members. Great deli with fresh and delicious meats and just an all around great time. read more

I went just before Yom Kippur, 2023, so it was very busy with a long line. I couldn't believe how fast the line moved. The help were very knowledgeable and super efficient. The chopped liver, and especially the onion bread were to die for. Also the pastries were a 10. I felt they were kind of pricey, but who isn't pricey these days...I definitely recommend. read more

Great chopped liver! People are very nice there! My go to place for pickled herring, lox and tongue

Great road trip stop during a drive from Maine to NYC. There is a large parking lot in back, with a direct entrance into the deli. Ordering/paying was a little bit confusing, but we figured it out. They had lots of excellent looking baked goods; rugelach, black and white cookies, rainbow cookies, and halvah candies, but we were there for road food and ordered two great big sandwiches with an extra half sour pickle on the side! My sandwich of turkey, swiss, and cole slaw on rye was excellent and packed. My friend got a behemoth pastrami, corned beef and cole slaw combination that was super satisfying. read more

Thank G*d we have this island of Jewish fabulousness. I would be lost without their excellent salami, hamantaschen, potatoe latkes....goodbye waistline....hello smiles read more

I enjoyed the food and service at this place during my trip to Connecticut. Loved the French toasts and fresh orange juice. Also all the treats they have .... So dangerous and delicious read more

Old school Deli staple. They price their sandwiches good. The Corned Beef on Rye is excellent. Fortunate to have place like this when so many Jewish Style Deli's are going out of business. Service is good, it's consistent and they're friendly. read more

A historical Westport establishment! Bought some bagels and Lox for a large party! Everyone was extremely,sly happy with the quality!!

This is a traditional Jewish deli. It can be a very busy place depending on what time you go. There is dine in seating or you can order to go. What's nice is they have a lot of soups in the fridge ready for take home. I love this place! read more

To use the expression "Meh" maybe be the most descriptive. If you are anticipating a "New York Deli" style sandwich, this is not going to happen. Overall quality of product and service is good but does not meet the expectations of a good Jewish deli. There are better in CT. read more

This place is so cute. It has a great deli selection and a nice diner feel to the seating in the back. Lots of goodies you don't see anymore. I love how they have Jewish classics like latkes and knish on the menu. I ordered a pastrami Reuben, which was perfectly assembled and generous. I can't complain. The only thing is the meat is shaved classic and thin, nothing like the thick juicy meat from Katz's. read more

By far the best deli in the best deli in the area. For Jewish delis that are a must this is on the list up there with Katz. Great and I wouldn't suggest this to anyone, I don't want this place getting to cramped. A silent guilty pleasure that should be shared with only the closest in your life. read more

I had never been to this iconic Westport deli before today and I'm so sad to say I'm disappointed with my sandwich. I ordered hot pastrami on rye with mustard & Swiss & a block of halavah. My total was $19, which I thought was a lot but if the sammie was great, I wouldn't mind the cost. It wasn't. The pastrami itself was very tough! They did give me two different pickles with my order which I appreciated. Staff was helpful & friendly. I just wished I loved my sammie but I didn't. read more

This place is THE BEST. If you are looking for a good Jewish deli in the Fairfield CT area - you are in luck because Gold's is BEYOND good. From the food to the vibe to, most importantly, the food... this place is an institution of comfort, deliciousness and love. Do not drive by - pop in for lunch or grab some love to go. read more

I was angry when I read that some travel magazine named Gold's as the best pastrami sandwich in Connecticut. Being a religious-level fan of Rein's Deli in Vernon, I thought there was no way that Gold's could compete. So I visited when in the area. Just from walking in I was impressed. Gold's looks like it hasn't updated the interior since the '50s and I mean that as a compliment. This old-school neighborhood deli in the middle of upscale Westport is an unexpected jolt of warming nostalgia. And as soon as I sipped the matzah ball soup, served at a wonderfully volcanic temperature, I knew I was wrong to disbelieve the magazine's review. The soup was so well done, tasting homemade, that I was tempted to peek in the kitchen to see whether my bubbe was back there making it herself. And the pastrami was heavenly. Fresh and delicious. Without prompt, the waitress brought me an extra side of Russian dressing "in case of emergencies," and I almost died of joy. I've been back 1,000 times since. read more

I have been ordering from this deli for years and it is usually fantastic. However, I was so disappointed at the pastrami sandwich my daughter brought home for me yesterday. The pastrami was fatty, the meat was minimal and it made me long for the days year ago when I lived in NYC and frequented Carnegie deli for their incredible pastrami sandwiches. Golds is expensive but, prior to yesterday, I felt it was fair given the quality of their food and location. Not now. When I return I will purchase my standard lean brisket which is always delicious and worth the price. read more
