I keep coming back for years now. This place is just great, the prices are reasonable, the food is as fresh as it gets, and the service friendly. Mike’s Deli has an excellent selection of sandwiches, deli meats and sides. Just choose one of the subs. They are all tasty and I keep rotating. Try the pastrami on wheat, one of my favorites.
This place just never disappoints.

I love this place. There is plenty of parking, but it’s a mess sometimes.
The Reuben is by far my favorite. That one comes with pastrami brisket, Swiss cheese, sour cabbage and 1000 Island dressing. You can add things like blue cheese, red peppers, avocado or bacon, but I always get the standard Reuben. Mouthwatering and one of the best sandwiches I ever had.

The name sounds familiar, but I doubt that I ever went. Now I want the Reuben. I didn’t have a pastrami sandwich for years.

I went there a couple of times. It’s better than any sub in Venice. They give you generous portions and have plenty of customization options.
One downside, not enough tables or chairs.

First time I went I thought it was just another neighborhood deli. Then I ate the BLT in my car and immediately turned around for another one.
I stopped going once I moved into another apartment as it’s a bit far now. It’s worth the drive though.

I feel you. Wasn’t that much different for me. I didn’t go back the same day, but three times the same week. It’s almost addicting.

Just a little over 4 miles from where I live. Maps shows a 15 min drive. That’s doable.

Went there during my vacation (on my way to SoFi). One of the best sandwiches I have ever tried.

Never even heard of that place, but looks delicious. It’s quite a drive from where I live.

The good stuff is always a far drive away. That’s an LA unwritten rule.
Glad Uber Eats delivers in most cases.

I doubt people who live close by order Subway anymore. That’s place hits differently.

Right, but sometimes it’s just the “easy choice” as it’s close by. Doesn’t compare of course.
I didn’t know they have a second location.
