Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and our food came out quickly. I ordered a turkey club while my dad got one as well, and unfortunately we both had the same issue. The turkey was on the dry side, and it was sliced much thicker than I personally prefer. I tend to like a thinner deli-style sliced turkey, so it just wasn't my favorite sandwich. My mom ordered one of the salads though, and honestly it looked better than my sandwich. It was loaded with fresh toppings, and she said the ranch was excellent. If I come back, I'd probably skip the sandwich altogether and give one of the salads a try. Overall, I can definitely appreciate what they're going for. The prices are fantastic, honestly unheard of in present day, and that's the main reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 3. It's a true local spot, and I wouldn't mind giving it another chance to try something different from the menu.

My sister and I decided on the #1 sandwich, we split it which was more than enough for us. It really was so good! They have several other sandwiches and food in the deli.

Shrimp & Sausage Boil: A stew of shrimp, sausage, and corn. The ingredients were of very good quality; the shrimp were firm and fresh, and there were over a dozen in one serving. The sausage had a rich smoky flavor, and the corn was sweet and juicy. The seasoning was basic garlic butter, with black pepper to remove any fishy smell and enhance the aroma, resulting in a subtle creamy flavor overall. Mashed Potatoes with Gravy: The mashed potatoes were smooth and creamy with a distinct buttery aroma. Unfortunately, the gravy was a bit too salty. Mixed Vegetables: Purely boiled vegetables, completely unseasoned, too bland. I used them to dip the mashed potatoes, which made it absolutely better. Fried Chicken Tender: Scalding hot. Although the crisp wasn't crispy enough, it was still very aromatic.

A little less mayo and more cranberry would be my only tip. All sandwiches come with chips too! I didn't try a pastry, but next time I absolutely will!

I've recommended this place to too many people to call to dissuade them from visiting, so I'm posting to yall.

They have a lot of beers on tap, nice assortment of food, spacious. Clean bathrooms which is important! There is another bar downstairs, it small and rectangular with an open ceiling so if you're upstairs you can look into. They've added planters on the beams which adds to the ambience.

Excellent pastrami, would return.

Let's start with the stars: * Hot Pastrami Sandwich (10/10) - This is exactly what a pastrami sandwich should be. Thick-cut, fresh, perfectly seasoned, incredibly moist, and piled high. Every bite was packed with flavor without feeling heavy. * Meatball Sandwich (10/10) - This completely caught me off guard. The meatballs were tender and flavorful, the sauce was outstanding, and everything came together perfectly. One of those sandwiches that immediately makes you start planning your next visit. * Potato Salad (10/10) - I have genuinely never had potato salad like this before. It's difficult to even describe because it doesn't compare to the typical deli or barbecue versions most people know. All I know is I'll be grabbing another side before I leave town. And then there was the surprise of the day: * Cowtown Pizza Slice (10/10) - We originally got this to go after seeing pizza after pizza come out of the kitchen and deciding we had to know what the hype was about. The slice was HUGE, the crust was fantastic, and the flavor was incredible. Honestly, it might be the best pizza I've had to date. Even after an already amazing meal, this completely held its own. Beyond the food, Milwaukee Delicatessen Company has the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to linger. Great sandwiches, great beer, historic surroundings, and the feeling that you've stumbled upon a local favorite that's been doing things right for a long time. If you're a sandwich person, this place is non-negotiable.

In addition to food, they also have a few drink options like bottles of wine and beer. They even have dog food and dog treats. The store itself is decent sized. There's plenty of space for a few people to move around. They do have a large deli counter and a few coolers full of goodness. Service is always excellent. They are always helpful and can even offer suggestions if you don't know what to make with what. One of my go-tos are any one of their sausages. They have traditional ones plus a few fun ones. And if you watch their social media, they'll usually tell you when they have a limited addition one. The Rieger whiskey and apple sausage is one of my favorites. They also have a chicken curry sausage, which is excellent and has so much curry flavor. On my last visit I noticed that they have mac & cheese that you can take to go. They have a few different varieties, but I went with one with bacon because their bacon is always fantastic. It was a really good side. I slapped it on the grill to warm it up and it was delicious. Highly recommend. If you are in the city market area definitely stop in and check out what they have.
