I haven't set foot in here in many years, and that is a shame. It is a bit out of my daily working zone. And, there are other similar places that were closer and for years offered great food. However, the two other Jewish deli spots have really gone downhill and Scott's just keeps on delivering great food, hearty portions and fast, awesome service. My corned beef sandwich was ridiculously large and, most importantly, the meat was lean and delicious. $18 bucks for a sandwich is not super cheap, but I had a hard time eating one half because of the portion size. So, my wife became the beneficiary of the other half. Definitely returning soon! read more

I've always passed by this spot and honestly overlooked it--turns out I've been missing out. My son and I stopped in for breakfast, and the place was nice, open, and very clean. It had a comfortable, welcoming vibe right away, which made it easy to settle in and enjoy the meal. The breakfast was really good. I'd rate the food an 8 or 9 out of 10, and the service was a solid 10. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and quick without feeling rushed. I also grabbed a pastrami sandwich to go for a friend and a vegan bowl for another, and both were well-received. Definitely glad we finally stopped in-- read more

Came here on a whim with the fiancé for brunch. Scott's delivers a New York-style deli here in Arizona. They serve authentic deli food! Looks like a family-owned restaurant. This place is known for its overstuffed sandwiches, homemade soups, knishes, and classic deli staples like latkes and reubens. It offers a casual atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating. Service is amazing, our waiter was very patient in explaining the different kinds of sandwiches they offer. My dish was just ok. Liver was a little too sweet for me to indulge in but still a deliciously made sandwich! I'm not big on coleslaw but theirs was actually good to me. read more

I've been here a few times for breakfast and for lunch. Both times have been very pleasant. Today I had the "Scott's Perfect Rueben-Rueben" with pastrami on an onion roll. It comes with fries and a pickle. It was all very good. In fact, this place is now my favorite pastrami place in the valley, surpassing the Miracle Mile "Straw", which is also excellent. The service is always very good and it's never really been very busy any time I've been here. This place is in a strip mall, but it has a very nice diner vibe to it. read more

The prices are just stupid. It's a New York deli but it's not in New York and they charge $21 for a sandwich. I don't spend $21 on a steak dinner. This is sick I don't know how they get business. The food is only fine. read more

This is a nice small spot that sells omelettes, skillets, corned beef hash, pancakes, sandwiches, salads, and more. I tried out their veggies skillet, chicken noodle soup, and cheesecake brownie. The worst part of the skillet was its main ingredient: the potato. I asked for no onions several times and I still found onions in there. The chicken soup was actually good but it had a random piece of bone in it. The cheesecake brownie sounded great on paper but the item itself was simultaneously worse than most cheesecake and most brownies I've ever eaten. I also tried a knish and it didn't sit well with my stomach unfortunately. Overall, a slightly below average experience here. read more

This, one of many times, I ordered a Kasha Knish. What I got was Potato Knish, I think. Please review the accompanying pictures. The lighter one is from Scott's. The other was not. I did get to sample the meat Knish. That has pastrami and potato inside. As any good pastrami-related substance, it was in dire need of mustard, which, for all time and forever, you add yourself. The taste was terrific. All the Kinishes had a thin baked crust. They were delicious as they were. I did not complain to the waitstaff, so I have no excuse, but please be forearmed; you have been forewarned. read more

I have gotten takeout from Scott's Generations Restaurant & Delicatessen twice, both on weekdays. They are conveniently located close to where I work. But, they close at 5 so keep this in mind as it's not a dinner spot unless you do a super early dinner. Parking won't be an issue in the shopping center they share with a bunch of other businesses. Service (N/A): Since I've gotten takeout both times, service hasn't been a big part of the experience. With that being said, both of my phone orders went through without any hiccups, and my orders were accurate both times. I was able to pay at the counter easily. Ambiance (3/5): Pretty much your typical, casual deli. A decent amount of seating at both tables and high tops. While I didn't dine in, I got to look around while I was paying for my order. Drinks (N/A): I didn't order any beverages on both visits. Food (4/5): If you've never been to a Jewish deli before, you're in for a treat. I recommend trying some Jewish classics such as pastrami sandwiches, matzo ball soup, latkes, and blinzes. Scott's Generations has a large menu of both breakfast and lunch items, so you have plenty to choose from. On one visit, I ordered the pastrami sandwich with Russian dressing on a kaiser roll. On the other visit, I had a bologna sandwich with tomatoes, pickles, and Russian dressing. Both comes with coleslaw and I added fries for a small surcharge. First off, these are some big sandwiches! The meat is stacked high, and easily makes for two meals. Russian dressing is essentially thousand island dressing and compliments the meat well. You can choose your bread. I like kaiser, but rye bread is traditional (I'm not a fan). You also get some fresh pickles with your entree, which is another common part of a Jewish deli experience. The fries are more like oven roasted potatoes. Though they weren't what I was expecting, they are good. One of my favorite restaurants in Houston is a Jewish deli: Kenny & Ziggy's. Since I moved to Phoenix in January, it's nice to have found a nice Jewish deli here, too. They also have a Groupon you can purchase that gives you a discount. Score! read more

My fiancée and I came to get coffee in the area and seen this place across the street from our favorite coffee shop. We love giving new places a try.

Ambiance: it really gave us a New York vibe I love this place we are definitely coming back to try more things. read more

We stopped here for breakfast on our way to flagstaff. We were greeted and told to sit anywhere. Our waiter came over right away and took our drink order. We found several things that interested us. We finally settled on our orders (pics provided) and our food was really good. The bagel with the homemade lox cream cheese was fire . Literally the best dish IMO. But everyone loved their food. The only thing I have to say is the home fries were just ok. Needed something but some salt and cholula fixed them right on up. There restaurant was cozy and there is outside eating as well. read more

I ordered a ham sandwich, on rye bread. It was to come with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise. It was very generous with ham, the lettuce had brown on the end, there were two microplaned pieces of tomato and the mayonnaise was there but hard to find, although a plastic packet was provided. The most upsetting thing was that the rye bread was dry and the ends of the loaf. Cheap creeps! Throw it or put it in your stuffing ! read more

Food was good & fresh . Service was normal. Ambiance needs a little cleanup . Friendly but the parking is not great .

Food & service. Stuffed cabbage is fantastic! You won't be disappointed by quantity and quality.

I had to order catering for an aviation flight from Scott's Generation in Scottsdale, and despite not visiting the restaurant, they were incredibly accommodating. I placed orders online and over the phone, and everyone I spoke to was incredibly helpful. I ordered a variety of deli items, and they were more than happy to help me deconstruct them and assemble them on the plane. I also ordered a nice roasted turkey, which was cut perfectly for sandwiches. If you're looking for a spot to order food from, whether it's deli or Jewish deli, definitely stop by Scott's Generation. You won't be disappointed! read more

I've been eating at Scott's ever since they were on 7th street and Missouri, over 20 years. Their sandwiches are HUGE,and really fresh and delicious. Deli must order any fish,potato salad and coleslaw. Chop liver,yum. read more

A True Gem in Phoenix - More Than Just Bagels! We were looking for a great local breakfast spot and wanted to skip the usual chain options--so glad we discovered Scott's Generations Deli! Nestled off 7th St. and Glendale In Phoenix, this classic deli has been serving up incredible food since 1989, and after just one visit, we understand why it's a local favorite. Though we grabbed our order to-go, the cozy atmosphere made us wish we had time to dine in. The place was bustling, with a mix of regulars and newcomers all enjoying a hearty breakfast. And let me tell you--Scott's is far more than just bagels. Their menu is packed with classic breakfast staples like pancakes, eggs, bacon, and more. We ordered Asiago bagel sandwiches--one with sausage, one with ham--and they were outstanding. The sausage was a huge split-open link, crispy and full of flavor, paired perfectly with fluffy scrambled eggs. The ham sandwich , served with over-easy eggs, was so good my partner ate in complete silence (the ultimate sign of a great meal!). We also added a side of home fry potatoes and a chive schmear bagel, both of which were fantastic. And the best part? The value! We were honestly shocked that we got all this food--two sandwiches, home fries, and a bagel with schmear--for about $25 with tax and tip! We're already planning our next visit. Whether you're craving a quick bagel or a full classic breakfast, Scott's Generations Deli is the spot to go! (Apologies for the lack of photos--we were too busy enjoying our food!) read more

Came in yesterday for lunch and got the Cuban sandwich with fries. The sandwich was packed with meat with crispy fries on the side. My husband got the steak and eggs that were very filling. For dessert we got a walnut brownie and a cheese bake brownie. Both were the perfect way to end a meal. The restaurant had a New York deli vibe with breakfast and lunch options. It was very busy, but service was fantastic. Jonathan was super attentive and very polite, checked in on us constantly with refills and how are meal was going. Definitely will be back in the future! read more

Made a quick stop in and super glad I did! I got the Reuben, Corned Beef and Pastrami combined. It was stacked high, super thick with meat. The kraut was proportional as well. This was a great sandwich. They put the dressing on the side, a bit strange, but I was able to add it bite by bite which was fine. The potatoes were cut like potatoes, but fried like fries. They were just past fried, which was perfect. I love a double fried fry, so I was super happy with these. If you like a great Reuben, my go to sandwich, don't pass this one up! read more

They had a St Patrick's day special which consisted of corned beef , cabbage and potatoes. The only thing I didn't like was that the corned beef was thin shaved beef instead of the traditional thick cut meat. This left the meat dry on the edges. The Rueben was very good and it came with potatoes as well. The rye bread was great. A bit pricey for sandwiches, but of good quality. read more

Here's the review I didn't want to write because I love Jewish delis, and I'm sure it's a tricky business. BUT.. that's no reason to represent what you give your customers on your menu falsely. The Order: My order: Corned beef sandwich, latke (potato pancake), chopped liver, and kishka. The Problem: The menu isn't accurate, and they overcharge. I ordered the corned beef sandwich (rather than getting a pound of corned beef) because the menu in large print says: "Overstuffed Sandwiches," MINIMUM HALF POUND. Okay, that sounded good to me (I was huuuuungry). I got home, and the sandwich looked small to me, so I weighed it. (I know it seems out there, but it really looked small to me... especially for a $17 sandwich) I took off the bread, and the meat was around 6 ounces, almost exactly. (Deli sandwiches are always sold by the meat inside.) If the sandwich was almost exactly two ounces smaller than it should be, I suspect that is really what they are selling. What Really Bites... Scott's, by my calculation, is overcharging every customer by $5.50 (that's a lot on a $17 sandwich?). So, either the restaurant needs to update its menu (and be upfront about the fact it serves six ounces in its sandwiches) or serve what it says. It's not ethical in my book. (see below for the response from the deli... Oh wait, they read my email but chose not to respond...). Scott's Response: How did Scott's respond you ask? (Spoiler: Scott's read and didn't bother to respond). I did reach out with my issue to Scott's by email but never heard back, so I'm guessing the ops is more of "let's ignore it, and no one else really cares, but this schmuck." In my email, I let them know I had photos on a digital scale, and they read them because I got a read receipt from my email. It seems like such a small thing, and yet here I am, putting it into the ether. Why wouldn't the owners want to respond? I really didn't ask for anything; I just let them know I didn't like the fact they misrepresented their portion size on the menu. Crickets. I would have thought this warranted some kind of response. Conclusion I didn't want to write the review (but, seeing as the three generations at Scott's didn't seem to care, I thought their customers might... You can draw your own conclusions as to why the restaurant didn't respond. I really think they got their hand caught in the cookie jar (thumb on the scale), so to speak. Rather than let me know it was a mistake and apologize or anything else, they just didn't seem to care. It's business as usual. That's not good customer service (or good business), and to me, it showed a complete disregard for their customers. Side Note: My chopped liver was fantastic, the latke was sitting for a week, and a 2 out of 10 at best, and the kishka wasn't really what I was used to, so no rating... My suggestion is that you expect what's written on the menu and check for the freshness of the food. If you got this far, thanks for sticking it out... :-) read more

Service was outstanding. My buddy had the Rueben on toasted rye, very tasty. I had the brisket of beef on an onion roll, my brisket was okay, think the meat had been reheated, but the onion roll was outstanding read more

A Jewish deli in a strip mall. Plenty of parking and seating. Our waitress was super nice and efficient, the ice tea was fresh and tasty. The food? Over salted! I ordered matzo soup and a half pastrami sandwich. The matzo ball was so bland. It was hard and tasted like a blob of dough. The soup was so salty (and I like salt) I couldn't eat it. The sandwich was piled high with pastrami but the bread was soggy. The meal also came with fries. Cut like home fries. Strangely under salted. Dipped in the soup helped. There was a small bowl of over dressed coleslaw on the plate. It looked like a bowl of mayo. The house made pickles tasted like cucumbers soaked in salt and piled on the plate. Hubs had the beef dip, underwhelming. Our friends both had sandwiches and frankly I can't remember what they had because they didn't rave about them. They did have to ask for sauerkraut which was supposed to come with it but didn't. It just wasn't good. 3 stars for the service. read more

Purchased a Groupon to this deli and usually don't expect much with those as either the establishment is struggling, not very good, or a new place trying to gain business. Boy, was I surprised! Came around 2pm and it wasn't busy. Our server provided excellent service. I ordered the turkey sandwich with Swiss and a side of macaroni salad. My friends ordered the taco salad and a Reuben sandwich with homemade fries that were more like wedge potatoes. The turkey was piled high and customizable. The only thing I forgot to ask was to add mayo. Mac salad was tasty and not too creamy as some places overdo it with the mayo. My friends enjoyed their food as well. Chatted with the owner briefly (assuming his name is Scott) & he is originally from Long Island and such a nice guy. I highly recommend this deli. They have a wide variety on their menu. You won't be disappointed! read more

What a horrible experience. The owner , big bubba, with a typical east coast attitude... The waitress was new and got my order wrong, Big bubba stormed out of the kitchen and said " what's wrong with your sandwich".. they slapped a piece of cold cheese on it and called it a Pastrami.. so I told him just that. He proceeded to raise his voice, keep in mind he's the owner, this is my first time here and for $21 a sandwich Yes, I want it made correctly. Never again will I go back. He treated me like crap and we witnessed him being an @sshole to his employees also. Don't go here! read more
