I'm awfully late on writing this review I dined here on November 16th around Brunch hours. My waitress was Sofia. She anticipated our needs, gave amazing recommendations and provided excellent customer service.
I looked over the Yelp reviews prior to dining in at Sherman's Delicatessen. I was like a kid at a candy store when I walked in the night before and picked up a beautiful Napoleon cake to take back to my hotel room and nibble at all night long. This place was packed. You'd think it was the only place open but no it's just that good and popular.
We had dined outside in the near the Palm Springs sun light, and the overhead provided some shade for us as we sipped on our tea and socialized. My party of 2 enjoyed themselves here taking a look around at the city life, people watching views and dogs sitting comfortably below the tables sipping from water bowls the restuarant provided for dog owners. This is a very dog friendly city.
I have planned on ordering the Monte Cristo as it is one of my favorites sandwiches to order at Disneyland. Unfortunately the Monte Cristo sandwich is only available on certain days I believe it was a Monday and my waitress advised me on which times to come.
And so I ordered the pastrami sandwich because I was eyeing it and a 1 large latke. Sofia, the waitress recommended the deli mustard and oh my! I felt like I was getting a real deli experience having real mustard with grains from the mustard seeds in to bottle.
The food was delicious! They have big portions here and they are well worth price. Sofia was humorous and she made me feel welcome here. I can't wait to come back. I loved her hospitality. I tipped her very well.
My good friend had ordered Belgian waffles and said they had tasted it off He had ate only 1/4 of it and seemed quite upset I had offered him a couple things off the menu but he had seemed to allows his appetite so I had told Sophia about my friend being unhappy with his plate. She recommended 2 to 3 things off the menu that might suffice after she saw that he was no longer hungry she took a note of it and took it off my bill. I was quite surprised and thanked her when I had seen the bill for the meal.
I can't wait to come back. From my initial experience I still rave...
Read moreClosest Jewish style deli in the inland empire. We needed a fix. Both started to feel like going out & then the deli craving began. We decided wtf let's go. We'd craved deli, meaning legit deli! Corned beef or pastrami sammiches on rye bread w mustard... So I drove 40 miles one way last Saturday night at 7:30pm. Was terrific with NO traffic. We used to love eating out but lately, not so much. We wanted to have deli so wtf not. ! Even took home most of our sammiches bc they are huge. Ordered 1 corned beef on rye& hubby had pastrami+ corned beef on rye. We ended up buying an addl loaf of rye because sammiches so thick we made 2 extra meals after this one. *They close at 9 incl counter (for take out bakery or?) If you want to eat there, arrive before 8:20, Once you're order is taken at a table inside or outside. While the food was being prepared, I went to counter to get our friend a 🥒 & dessert item & potato salad to go. They make an eclair to die for! Dee-lish dessert. Light & airy pastry filled with whipped cream & on top is a schmear of chocolate the perfect balance& not too sweet. We polished off the eclair over 3 days & on 3rd day was good as it was on the 1st day. The drive Sat night was easy breezy. Just saw add photos. I wish I'd taken pics! We fly out of 🌴 Springs, & get sammiches to go round trip either before departing & after we return, so next time, I'll take photos. There aren't that many places we like more than a deli. Hollywood, LA & San Fernando Valley. Brent's in Northridge or Agoura is our fave but, it's in LA w traffic @ least 2hrs each way & I'm the only driver. So if you're sick of the only deli people tell you about isn't a real deli, try Sherman's. Stater bros isn't a deli, ya know? Don't miss out. Prices average for sammiches $21-25 sharing is $3.75. Take home a dessert. Worth it! Bon Appetit. (Yiddish words to say are in my memory just spelling isn't in memory. (Esen Geusentihait?) Help appreciated. Yiddish...
Read moreI am from out of state. I have been here before for breakfast and had a great experience. This time I went for dinner and also had a great experience. We ordered the New York Style Hot Pastrami Sandwich with rye bread $19.45 and the Roast Brisket of Beef dinner special $18.45. Yes, it was expensive but I knew that before going, I just wanted to have a nice dinner in a nice rating restaurant, so I knew I was going to pay a bit high, you can see the menu online, but the prices have changed to higher, just fyi. Our waiter was Araseli and she was really nice and helpful, we had a great experience with the service there. The food was bland, huge portions of tasteless meat; my roast brisket was so undercooked and flavorless, I had to ask for barbeque on the side to dip in my meat, it came with a steam veggie salad and it was also flavorless, that meal was not worth the money at all. The pastrami sandwich was also flavorless and cold (it supposed to be hot) the bread was not toasted and the sandwich comes with nothing but meat and bread, we asked for lettuce and tomatoes to make it have flavor, it came with a little tiny cup of overly sugared coleslaw, too sweet to eat. The celebrity photos we came to see were mostly photos of very famous celebrities next to mediocre celebrities signed by those, like a photo of the Rat Pack signed by Joey Bishop (not very famous rat pack), and a photo of Lucille Ball signed by Little Ricky, and most ridiculously, a photo of Elvis signed by I do not know who!? Going back to the food ordeal, after we left the place, we got such stomach problems, it was horrible and we were sick all night and half of the next day, it kind of ruined our vacation for two days, it was food poisoning for sure. I really wanted to like this place, but we did not have a good experience after, it...
