Jesse’s Gourmet Deli – Glendale’s Hidden Gem
Jesse’s Gourmet Deli isn’t just a deli—it’s part of the neighborhood’s heartbeat. Tucked right into the heart of Glendale, it’s the kind of place that’s been quietly doing things right for years. The food is solid, fresh, and always hits the spot, whether you’re grabbing a sandwich, a breakfast wrap, or just stopping in for a snack.
But what really sets Jesse’s apart is the way they treat the community, especially the kids. Every afternoon, you’ll see a pack of local kids riding their bikes over—some with helmets half-on, some just cruising in for an after-school treat. And here’s the best part: Jesse’s actually lets them bring their bikes inside. No stress about leaving them out front, no lectures—just a warm, welcoming vibe that reminds you some places still know how to take care of their own.
In a world of big chains and cold service, Jesse’s is a reminder of how things used to be—and how they still can be. Friendly, reliable, and deeply rooted in the neighborhood. That’s the kind of place...

Read moreI rarely leave reviews, but felt compelled to rate Jesse's deli. If I could leave 100 stars I would. I stumbled across this place by accident one morning ordered a bacon egg and cheese on a bagel, when I tell you it was to die for. I then proceeded to have a party catered by Jesse, my guest raved about the chicken cutlet, mozzarella, and pepper hero. Excellent customer service, which is rare to find these days. If you're in the neighborhood stop by and get a bite to eat, you will not be sorry . Keep up the great job Jesse and much...
