In town for a conference and needed a little something before heading to the airport. Unassuming looking location that seems to serve mostly people working in the courthouse across the street. Nice , attentive staff. Food came out quick and absolutely delicious. Got the corned beef and some chili cheese fries. The sandwich was great. Solid shaved corned beef, good mustard with Swiss. Asked for the bread to be slightly toasted and it was perfect. The chili cheese fries though? Holy s###. This is no canned slop chili. This is put in a bowl and eat with a spoon corn bread. Big chunks of burger with beans and tomatoes on a bed of perfect crispy fries from the air fryer. Amazing. If I come back to Cleveland I will definitely be having lunch here again. Give it a try. read more

Walked in to a very unassuming deli and placed our order. Everything was made right there and was very quick. My husband got the Chipotle Chicken and I got the Chicken Bacon Ranch sandwich. Both were delicious and really enjoyed our lunch. There was a steady flow of local people there ordering and going back to work, which solidified the quality of food. If we weren't going to be in Cleveland for such a short time, I'd definitely go back! read more

West 3rd Deli - Pastrami sandwich - Delis Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Lunch at this place was a real treat! We stumbled on to the restaurant on Yelp while we were looking for sandwiches in the area near the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. We found this deli and it had a parking place or two out front so we grabbed one across from the Justice Center. There were lots of lawyers and regulars in here so that told me it was going to be good. It was. In fact, it was excellent! My wife had the chicken bacon ranch sandwich and it was to her satisfaction. She remarked about how good it was. I had to Italian sandwich and it was fantastic! I would not change a thing. I checked in on yelp and received complementary bag of chips and a drink with my purchase of a medium sub. So thank you to the Yelp people here in Cleveland for setting that up. We would totally eat here next time we're in town. This place is fantastic! read more

Working a trade show a few blocks away and was looking for something better than the food stand at the show. Had the club sub with French dressing and really liked how the flavoring was and the bread was excellent. I recommend the subs here. read more

I was excited to try this place after checking reviews and pics online. We gave it a try for lunch. It was good but nothing spectacular about it. The service was just Meh. The two people working/owning maybe, just didn't seem to interested in being there. The Reuben was ok. Not saying I wouldn't return, but may try another deli before. read more

When I ordered a bacon egg & cheese, he cracked a fresh egg into the skillet -- and that's when I knew it was going to be good. Friendliest folks, excellent food made fresh. read more

West 3rd Deli - Chicken chipotle with lettuce, onions and jalapeños. - Delis Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Visited West 3rd Deli again with my coworkers recently. When I checked in, I received a pop-up window with a coupon for a free side and drink. So I shared it with my co-workers so they could get in on the deal too. I requested a hot Italian sandwich along with chips and a drink. My coworker requested some cheesy fries with bacon. Our food was made immediately to order and was served hot. The fries were overcooked, but they had a decent flavor still. The Italian sub was excellent. The bread is incredible - perfect taste and texture. It was a large sub and very filling. I will be back for more. read more

West 3rd Deli - Corned Beef - Delis Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Sub shop across the street from the Justice Center, so a good spot if you're doing jury duty or attending a sporting event downtown. They make a wide array of subs. My mood led to try the chicken parm sub. I added jalapeño and they use a rolling oven to heat the sub. The oven melted the cheese perfectly. The sun was hot and cold tasty. They have several tables for eating there, but most people were grabbing takeout. Staff was attentive and they even brought the sun to my table. Nice. Solid option for a downtown meal. They do close at 4pm, so not a dinner place. read more

Passed this on my way to Starbucks. I called to make sure they had breakfast sandwiches and they answered the phone right away and were pleasant. I stopped on my way back and got the breakfast sandwich. I chose the bacon, egg, and cheese one. I requested wheat bread instead of the bagel, English muffins, or croissant. He said they only have wheat roll and I got that. He made the egg fresh, added cooked bacon and cheese and put it through a revolving toaster. It was delicious. I would have preferred crispier bacon and I'll request that next time. read more

I love a good deli! Owner or manager said hello right away and was working with the staff. Small sub is like 6". I had the chipotle chicken, minus the BBQ sauce. Crusty and chewy bread and plenty of chicken. I'll be back. read more

Really good food and friendly service! I got the Philly steak sub and the cheese and bacon fries. My wife loved her salad.

Chicken bacon ranch was fantastic. Medium was about 12". Add the toppings you want. There was a line but it went fast. They have the process down! Will return to try a breakfast sandwich. Update 8/30 Came back for the croissant breakfast sandwich and it was a good as I expected. read more

Real good gourmet steak sandwich. Great fries as well. Not greasy. Easy to order online.

Great deli you need to go here. People are nice and the food is very good! Next time I'm in town I'm going back.

If you're downtown, especially serving in jury duty in the Justice Center across the street, it's definitely worth the walk over to get a delicious deli style sandwich or gyro. Staff are friendly and hardworking serving consistently delicious food in a simple serve and go setting though they do have some tables for inside dining. read more

I was driving through town on a cross country road trip. It was one of the few establishments in the area open for lunch on a Tuesday. I'm so glad I stopped here! I had the warm honey mustard chicken sandwich and it was delicious. Decent prices and close to the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. read more

Stopped in here for a late lunch one afternoon. Ordered a Reuben sandwich and a bottle of water. Sandwich was made fresh and hot to order. The sandwich was huge! I could only eat half of it and took the other half to go. Sandwich was tasty! The guy running the place was nice. The only thing I will ding the place on is the parking situation. There was no available parking on the street - meaning every available spot was already occupied. I had driven over from my hotel and being from out-of-town had no idea I would not be able to find a place to park. So I ended up paying to park in a pay lot next to the building the Deli is located within. Also note - West 3rd Deli does not deliver - BUT - they have two delivery services they are partnered with - so if you do want to order and have it delivered- you can do so! read more

Great family run place always friendly very good food at a reasonable price Owners treat you like they've know you ever

Stopped in to get some lunch, tried the rueben sandwich. It was great! If you like Rueben's, this is the place.

Nice people good service and very good food. Went for the first time and had Italian sandwich and Chile. Enjoyed all of it! Next time I'm in town I will definitely go back. read more

Why anyone would bother with Jimmy John's or Subway when this amazing gem is so close, is beyond me! I just smashed a 12" (medium) toasted sub in my face for $7.50 and it was 5x better than some chain. Mountains of toppings, friendly staff, fresh bread, in and out in 10 minutes. I'll be making this a regular spot for lunch. read more

Very good little deli. I had a steak sub and some soup. There was a line to order/ make the sandwich but it moved quickly.

Was visiting Cleveland for a conference and my wife found this deli. Little place that is a tucked into a building - worth going to! Doesn't look the prettiest - but the food definitely makes up for it. It is very reasonably priced, and they make it right in front of you. Lots of options! My Buffalo Chicken sandwich was awesome! Will be back. read more

Lived right down the street from here for a bit now and finally decided to give it a go. Very unsuspecting looking sandwich shop from the exterior with big flavor. Due to location the place was pretty busy when I stopped in for lunch and filled with friendly police force enjoying sandwiches. On this visit I had the reuben which was piled fairly high and toasted to perfection. I enjoyed the composition of the sandwich as they included the kraut in the middle of the meat rather than top or bottom to provide a much cleaner and even eat. I look forward to coming back and trying many more sandwiches in the future. read more

Reviewing again because I came back again - 5/5 this place is a hidden gem. Great price for the quality. The Italian bread is delicious.

I'm gonna give this place 4 stars based upon it just an ordinary sandwich to me . I had the Italian the meat was good definitely better then Subway. I bought a Vitamin water it was only 2.19 . I mention this because many of the places Downtown exploit the Downtown folks charging 3 dollars for most bottled drinks. Thanks third street Deli also for the free chips and drink for Yelp check in. The inside was nice and orderly, and the staff is very nice. I'm on jury duty and this is convenient to just walk across from the Justice center. The bread on the sandwich I must say was very good. They also sell Lottery and cigarettes if you need those items. read more

West 3rd Deli - Italian - Delis Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Listen, I'm mad. Not at West 3rd Deli, but at myself. I've lived RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER from this place for over a YEAR AND A HALF. I always thought "eh, I'll try it someday, looks kinda sketchy though". I. Was. Wrong. This place is phenomenal! I stopped by on a lunch hour juuuuust on a whim because I was sick of my weekly usual chain store sub that rhymes with Timmy Don's. There was quite a line and there's a ton of menu items to choose from, so I let a couple people in front of me. I settled on the Pick 2 for $7.49 deal and was surprised how quickly the line moved. Got a ham sub and chicken Caesar salad. Mind you - that deal is cheaper than Panera or anything else I've seen. I got extra mayo on my sub and FINALLY I found someone who understands me and my unhealthy love for mayo because that lady loaded me up. Everyone was super friendly, so far so good. Took my meal home and dumped my salad onto a plate. This SMALL size salad covered an entire dinner plate AND had a healthy portion of chicken on it to boot. I probably could've made two meals out of this Pick 2 but I have no self control and ate the whole thing. It was divine. Aaaaand then I went back two days later with my boyfriend who got the Chicken Bacon Ranch while I Pick 2'ed again with a BLT and Black and Bleu steak salad. The ladies working were so, so nice and patient (and even funny!) with my million-question/substitution-having boyfriend, they're better people than me. He didn't seem as excited as I was until he took a few bites of his sub and became equally overwhelmed with tastebud happiness and self-disappointment for not trying this place out sooner. Again, I devoured the whole Pick 2 so if I don't fit into my bridesmaid dress next month I only have myself and West 3rd Deli to blame. ALSO, I didn't know they're open until 6! I assumed it was only 3, since it's a downtown lunch spot. I have a bad feeling I'll be stopping here to pick up dinner on my walk home from work when I'm too lazy to cook. TL;DR - you need to try this place, I can't stop thinking about it and I even read the menu in bed last night to plan what my next meal will be. read more

Easily one of the best breakfast and lunch spots in town. The food is always fresh, they make everything the same way every time, fantastic owners. What's not to love! read more

Mixed reviews about this: it's certainly a popular place and the staff behind the counter keeps it moving along. I wasn't impressed with my roast beef sandwich, however my lunch buddies enjoyed their salads and both commented on how flavorful and moist the chicken was. They provided a large portion of fries, but they were just so so. The prices and portion are very reasonable so if you are looking for something quick and affordable- this might be the place for you. read more

Very very good subs, good service and probably the safest place in town with all of the police officers rolling in lol.

Fantastic deli with warm, friendly staff. I've eaten here two days in a row while at a conference. I had the hot Italian and it was delicious and very inexpensive. The bread and meat were both top notch. Checking in on the app even rewards you with free chips and drink. Great place, would love to try them for breakfast. read more

Good spot. Nothing crazy. However I did not have the corned beef. Maybe that takes the review up a level. Don't get me wrong though. It's a solid lunch spot for a quick sandwich or salad. read more

Had lunch here yesterday while serving jury duty across the street. Very convenient. Thanks Yelp for free drink and chips with check in. Service was good. I tried the steak and cheese. It was ok. Meat was a bit tough and didn't have much flavor. Bread was excellent. Might give it another try for a different sandwich the next few days. read more

I found West 3rd Deli on Yelp when I was staying at the Hilton down the street. The owner, Tesh, was super nice and personable. I was alone so we chatted while I ate the most enormous sandwich of my life. I had the Chipotle Chicken on Rosemary bread and it was delicious. It was so big I had 1/2 wrapped up and I took it home with me. "Check in" on Yelp for free chips/drink with purchase of large sandwich- doesn't get much better than that! read more
