Finally got to try Deli on Crown! Our meal was PHENOMENAL! First, we tried the knish because we'd never had one before. It was pure comfort food! We had 2 types of soup: matzah ball and lentil. Both had a lovely homemade quality. We also tried 3 sandwiches: the Reuben, the pastrami croissant, and the falafel. The pastrami was by far our favorite! But I loved the falafel too because the texture of the falafel was so creamy and pleasant. My favorite items might have been the salads though. The veggies were all fresh and crisp! Finally, we tried the chocolate babka. It was life-changing. So rich and chocolatey and kind of crunchy on the bottom in a good way. I even enjoyed my soda. So hard to find something with no sugar or caffeine. The people here were also friendly and kind! I hear this is the last kosher deli in Milwaukee! You definitely need to go check them out! read more

Wow this place is absolutely delicious! Highly recommend. I placed an online order and picked up. Everything was packed nicely and so delicious. The pastrami was some of the best I've ever had. So tender and flavorful. The chocolate babka was also decadent. Everything was big enough portions for me to have another meal the next day. Highly recommend. read more

My favorite place for lunch. The salads are the freshest - no bagged lettuce taste. I've had the Mediterranean, the Caesar as well as salad of the month. Tahini based dressings are a plus as I hate mayonnaise. This place is adorable with really nice people running the place. Service was quick. I have not yet tried for dinner but looking forward to trying in the future as the menu items sound scrumptious. This is a little hidden gem that only the locals know about. read more

Excellent little gem in Mequon. Stopped in and ordered right after a group. It gave me a chance to see everything get sliced and prepared. I ordered a pressed pastrami with sauteed onions and pickles though the pickles didn't make it on the sandwich. No biggie as the sandwich was served with a delicious spear on the side. It comes with your choice of coleslaw or potato salad and I opted for coleslaw. Excellent sized portions and all of the flavors melded well with each other. I also got a potato knish - they had turnover and bun style since they're trying out the recipes. I got the bun style - no regrets. It was flaky, hot perfection! I downed it inno time. I didn't finish my sandwich and had 1/2 the next day and it was even better. I can't wait to go back. Check it out if you're in the area. Be prepared to wait a little bit for a handmade quality lunch if you stop in, but remember that it's worth it! read more

A friend recently told me about The Deli on Crown after he brought some chocolate babka to an event I was at. I decided to check it out as soon as I could. I ordered chicken matzah ball soup, a pastrami sandwich on french bread with extra pastrami, a slice of chocolate babka, and a can of Dr. Brown's Root Beer. The broth for the soup could have been a little more flavorful and I sadly only found a couple slices of carrot in it, but the large pieces of chicken in the soup were appreciated. I didn't dislike it, but I don't know if I'd get it again based on the price. With St. Patrick's Day right around the corner and plenty of opportunities to have corned beef, I decided to go with pastrami for my sandwich. I liked being given the option of french bread because I'm not a fan of rye and I'm glad I ordered the extra meat because 4 oz for the normal amount seems a little skimpy. Overall I liked the sandwich. The chocolate babka is to die for. It's like a loaf of bread crossed with a cinnamon roll, but instead of cinnamon layered throughout it's a chocolately fudge-like thing. Absolutely the best. I had Dr. Brown's Root Beer for the first time a little over a year ago and have been struggling since to find a place locally that specifically sells root beer from that brand, not just their other flavors. I've tried many different kinds of root beer in my life and this is the best one of them all. I'm thankful I stopped and saw they had it. read more

I had the For the Love of Brisket sandwich, and oh my was it delicious! It was a big juicy spicy pile of brisket with an avocado on a delicious bun. And the potato salad was spicy and delicious as well. I can't wait to go back and try more things. read more

Had the pastrami croissant, one of the best sandwiches I've ever had anywhere ever; pastrami, fried egg, avocado, tomato, lettuce and sauce all perfectly delicious and messy as can be! Friend had a salad which also looked amazing although I'm not sure I could ever order it given how good that sandwich was...will be back! read more

I found the experience lacking in all categories. The food was mediocre at best. I ordered Matzah ball soup and garlic knots. The bread was badly charred and barely edible. I thought it was going to be warm and it wasn't so I was disappointed there too. The soup was cold and the matzah balls were fairly small considering the price. All in all, I realize the novelty is this is a kosher establishment but I still want good food! I can't say that I'll go back but I wish them the best of luck. If you're into expensive novelties, this is the place for you or buy yourself a good cookbook in the adjacent gift shop and make the food at home! read more

Food is fresh and pretty OK! For a deli experience, it is quite cozy and pleasant. In terms of bang for your buck, it was definitely on the slightly pricy side (though this is likely because kosher food is just more expensive to supply). 4 stars vs 5 simply because it was decent, but not noteworthy. I had a pretty forgettable sandwich, but the side of potato's was nice. The host seems to unfortunately rub people the wrong way sometimes, however. She asked me how my food was and made things a bigger deal than needed when I said it was just OK. She seemed to take offense rather than ask how it could be better. Just a bit strange and off-putting. read more

This is a great new Kosher Deli, tucked away in the lower level of the Peltz Center of Jewish Life. There's no sign on Mequon Road, so you have to turn in to see the signs for its location. A bit of local marketing got me in the door. A friendly Rabi gifted me a loaf of challah bread one Friday afternoon, so I decided to give them a try. I visited and got a pound of pastrami. It was delicious, and I plan to stop in again; however, the hours are limited, so be sure to check before you go. Sadly, they did not sell the loaf of bread that got me interested in the store to begin with, but I plan to go back to sample the remainder of the menu. read more

The Deli on Crown - Ground floor Deli - Delis Near Me - Mequon, Wisconsin

Normally I love the types of food they serve, however this place kinda missed the mark for me. I ordered the knish, matzah ball soup, and a Ruben. The knish tasted like it was just tossed in a microwave and heavily coated in sesame seeds which is all I could taste. Being from the lower east side of NY I know a good Knish. The soup was flavorless, and the Ruben was really cold. The service was fine, no real complaints there, and the restaurant itself was really nice looking. read more

This is a new little hidden gem in Mequon! Pros: Great menu options, nice employees, our sandwiches are very flavorful! Side options were great too, I enjoyed their potato salad. So much potential here and I hope they do well! Do yourself a favor and purchase a slice of the chocolate babka for after or the next morning - so so good!! Cons: bread was either dry or stale - kind of fell apart when eating. Perhaps the French roll option is better and I will try that next time. Also, menu says 6 ounces of freshly sliced meat. I didn't feel it was 6 ounces and definitely could have used more. Also - the prices were a little high ($35 for two sandwiches and 1 soda), but if they're corning and smoking their meats there, I have no problem paying for the work behind that. However, no mention of doing this in house. Would love to see this if they are. Lastly, there wasn't much of a vibe in the restaurant. No music or ambiance. It could have been more warm and welcoming with some music on. Overall, will definitely go back. The staff was very nice and the sandwiches were great! read more

This is a phenomenal Jewish Deli. The space is quaint and perfect for time with friends, family, or a lunch meeting. The staff is lovely, kind, and greet you warmly when you walk in. The food is fantastic and full of flavor. The matzah ball soup is full of chicken flavor with tender vegetables, chunks of juicy chicken, and soft matzah balls that melt in your mouth. The corned beef horseradish panini is delectable with crispy French bread, mouthwatering corned beef, and a creamy horseradish sauce that balances the panini. The crispy schnitzel sandwich has a juicy and crisp fried dark meat chicken perfectly pounded. The tomatoes, lettuce, grilled onions, and lemon Mayo produce a symphony of bright flavors that pair perfectly with the soft pretzel bun. The chocolate babka is just the right sweetness and packs a beautiful chocolate punch surrounded by a tender layered cookie. I adore this place and have continued to crave their incredible dishes! read more

CUTE DELI ANHD GIFT STORE The owner was delightful and friendly. One sandwich which had almost everything on it was delicious. My turkey sandwich was tasty but I was disappointed that there wasn't more turkey on it. All in all very good, we will return! read more

I've been there twice around noon time and found that there is almost nothing to be had that is at least parve because it was way too early for me to be fleishigs. Would be nice if they had a fried flounder or something else that could be eaten with gusto. Also, they should have the nish nosh dressing for their salads or something that has a sweet element to it. When we come, we are a bunch of old ladies with a sweet tooth. Otherwise, I'm sure it's great from my family and friends perspective. read more

Really lovely kosher deli with great food and gluten free options. Situated within the Peltz Center it's a bit hidden and the seating area is cozy. But they offer online order for pickup that offsets any lack of seating or lunch rush. Worth a stop! read more
