Jason's Deli has become nearly ritualistic in my life so this review is certainly going to be biased--biased because I like delicious food and great deals. And olives. Jason's Deli checks all of these boxes and more. I have become addicted to their Turkey Muffaletta sandwich (it is GIANT and covered in delicious olive spread) as well as their baked potatoes. I had never thought a baked potato could get so large until I saw one of the varieties offered at Jason's Deli, it is simply beyond the logic of what a potato can be but somehow they break logic proper.
I get takeout from Jason's Deli at least once a week, usually for a good Friday dinner...and because their portions are so big, it usually becomes a great leftover meal(s) for Saturday.
I have not tried the soup or salad there yet but it looks fresh and inviting every time I stop in to pick up my order. I do recommend their side dishes like their potato salad, coleslaw, and their bean salad as well. Actually, all of their sides are great. Actually...all of the food here is great. Jason's Deli is just plain great. I give this location specifically 5 stars because I have never had a single issue with any order, when I ask for extras or special instructions then they are completed without issue, and the location is clean and inviting. The staff are always pleasant and I have never waited more than a minute to be helped even when they are busy. And by writing this, I'm now hungry and going to order a Turkey Muffaletta--their olive spread is straight mana...

Read moreWe have been coming to Jason’s Deli for years but this is our first time at this location. Since the sandwich I wanted was not on the menu today, I tried something new and ordered the Texas Style Spud ($8.09) with brisket, melted cheddar and bbq sauce. The potato was huge, like probably 8-10 inches long and stuffed with brisket, melted cheese and bbq sauce. I have to say that I was a bit disappointed and in a weird way. I’ve never felt like there is such a thing as too much cheese...until today. I felt like I was fighting with the cheese to be able to take bites off my fork. The bbq sauce is also very sweet. Too sweet for me. I ate a third and gave the rest to my husband who enjoyed it. I also ordered a cup of chicken pot pie soup ($4.19)which was very tasty. This I would order again and recommend it. We ordered the Amy’s Turkey O sandwich ($6.19)that had turkey, lettuce, tomato, avocado spicy mayo and spicy brown mustard on an onion roll and we would get this one again. We paired this with vegetable soup ($3.19) which was just ok. It wasn’t very flavorful and could have used a little more herbs and spices. Even though I didn’t love my entree, I know how to order it differently next time. We always enjoy our experience at Jason’s Deli and the staff is always nice. The total for our food and two iced teas was $27.87 which is pretty decent...
