Dufner's Donuts & Deli — Restaurant in Plymouth

This is my favorite place to get a sandwich hands down. Between the cost and the value it hits that sweet spot. I always get the hoagie. They said that they get the bread from a local bread shop which I believe because it is awesome. I usually order the hoagie and I asked for the corned beef.

Do you also want to add that they have soup. Now anytime I see chicken wild rice on the menu I have to stop and try it. As a minnesotan who loves wild rice this is a staple soup. I always feel you can tell how local a place is when they have this on the menu and can do it justice. This is not lip service when I say they have the best chicken wild rice soup. Back in the day when Grandma's restaurant was around more than just Duluth that was my favorite cup of chicken wild rice. Now I can get it locally and that is amazing.

My family would probably argue the donuts are what you really come for And they wouldn't be wrong. The donuts are homemade, although the filling, which is filled to order, is not. Kind of wish it was. Especially with those jelly fillings. That would be amazing homemade. But I also understand the time and effort would be a lot. I've had the bear claw, the donut holes, their yeast donuts, and Long John's. Definitely my favorite local 🍩 donut place. I wouldn't say they are overly decorated, they are all a standard homemade donut done with care. You can even get a box on discount if you go to an app called Too Good to Go.

I have ordered of the phone, as there's usually the owner and someone making sandwiches sometimes it can take a little to pick up but he will take orders over the phone. Expect about 30 minutes at least depending on the time of day. I did look at the online ordering but there wasn't any customizing options and I have to have my corned beef in my hoagie so he was able to accommodate over the phone no problem just paid when I got there.

As far as the atmosphere goes a few things need tweaking and filled to make it feel more lived in. One part is the ordering line. There's no exit really, you just have to go in and then go back through the way you came. I can get a little bit crowded if there's other people. There's plenty of spaces to sit but it feels like the space is a little empty. It'd be nice to see some local decor or some type of way for it to express itself. But after talking with the owner they have plenty of plans and I'm excited to see what happens.

First things, first. Raj is the man. He should have been The Dude from the Big Lebowski. This dude singlehandedly cooked the food, rang the orders, answered the phones all while accomplishing world peace.

For a moment, I worried that there were no cooks in the kitchen, and realized that Raj was the cook, cashier, phone answerer, accountant, and the friend you didn't know you needed. In the chaos of a long line, and orders piling up, one man emerged. Raj.

I've never seen such hustle in a restaurant in my life, and I am supremely impressed. Raj not only held the restaurant, and my hopes and dreams on his shoulders, but he did so with the utmost professionalism.

Additionally, the Reuben was amazing. It was made with the love and care only a man like Raj could accomplish.

When I finished my meal, I left a changed man. I now have purpose in life. Raj isn't the friend you need, but the one you deserve.

Thank you Dufner's Deli for allowing me to be served by the man, the myth, and the legend that is Raj. And to you Raj, I hope I have the honor and pleasure of being served by you again!

Come for the deli, stay for Raj.

TLDR Raj is awesome, and I will be eating at Dufner's Deli...
