I love the Urban Deli because it is one of the few local sandwich shops that are actually open on Saturdays. The spot is easy to find, there is ample parking, and the dining area is spacious and clean. Given the size of the space, they could probably add even more seating. There's been times when we've had to wait for a table to open during rush hours. The service is always friendly but could be fast or slow depending on who is making your food. Prices are also a bit higher than other local delis. However, I'm willing to pay a little extra to support a small business that has delicious food and is open on a Saturday. Everything we have tried has been good, and any deli that carries Dutch crunch as a bread option wins my vote. The one thing I'd like to see in the future are more options for chips and drinks.

Best sandwich I ever had. No joke. I made My own with toasted sourdough, pastrami, American cheese, lettuce, pesto, mayo and yellow mustard. It was seriously the best sandwich I've eaten. And I've eaten A LOT of sandwiches. The bread had an amazing flavor and the pastrami was very fresh. Excellent job Urban Deli.

The service here was fast and amazing! The shop had such a welcoming vibe, making it the perfect spot to grab a bite. I got The Lakeside, and it was definitely worth it. The sandwich was so packed that it was practically falling apart, the best kind of problem to have! Every bite was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend checking this deli out!

Headed to S Reno and decided to try a new place, new to me that is. Saw the sign and pulled into the shopping center. Yelp reviews were good so I knew it would be worth it. Many different sandwiches on the menu board named after Reno streets or you may build your own. Also a couple of salads. Today I chose the Kietzke, roast beef with horseradish sauce, onion, cheddar, lettuce and tomato. The horseradish really ups the ante for this sandwich. Not blow your head off but great flavor. The bread is Dutch crunch. I didn't know what that was but I'm a fan! The Kietzke was warm and fresh. Definitely would have it again. About half way through the sandwich the man that took my order stepped over and asked how it tasted. Very good for sure. Many take away or delivery orders happened while I ate. If you work in the area pop into the delivery app and order out. One more thing, a sandwich and drink was very reasonably priced. Enjoy!

I've heard great things about this place! I went here on mg fiancés lunch break, the service was great! They have a great menu to pick from, the sandwich I got was great you have to keep in mind the sandwiches come warm unless specified. The ambiance I would say is tame, the tables seem to be floating which is pretty cool! I would get another sandwich here! They also have monthly sandwich specials!

I can't say enough great things about this place. The couple is a local family who was taking and preparing orders. I'm an indecisive person I appreciated the shorter menu. They were also able to give us suggestions (both of which turned out great). I had a turkey sandwich with some chipolte mayo sauce on sour dough toasted. It was warm flavorful goodness! We sat outside. At lunch it's got shade and in the evening too. It's far enough from Virginia st to be quiet and relaxing. They delivered our food to our table, got us ice water at their request and gave us a brownie cookie to try on the house! I was floored with their customer service.

I love Urban deli! We order almost weekly for work lunches and the sandwiches are so delicious. The charcuterie boards are incredible as well. The owners, Lou and April are always so cheery and kind making them so pleasant to interact with and easy to talk to. Highly recommend their Lakeside. It's my favorite!

I love me some sammiches and this little place is tucked back out of sight into an old strip mall and it's a hidden gem for sure. I stopped on a whim not knowing anything about it and at first I apprehensive but it turned out great! The sandwiches are all very fresh on soft breads stacked high with fresh sliced meats, cheeses, and veggies. The only downside was that when I was expecting a cold bite, it turned out to be warmed up and that wasn't stated on the menu. Still, the sandwich was very good and they have a cozy atmosphere and nice patio. I'll be back!

The sandwiches were good, the service was very friendly but the location is difficult to find. Chips are the only sides I saw offered. Probably will not return but, if I do, I will definitely try one of the salads next time. They looked good.

I was first here about a year ago. Hidden in the back of a strip mall on So. Virginia; look for Bistro 7 and then go straight back to the corner. Owners Lou & April are still running the place themselves. Said they were doing great. Sandwiches start at $11.50 (not a bad price) add chips and a drink for an additional $3.75. They've also got a couple of salads, and it looks like they've got a pannini option. Also, the best brownies I've had in a long time. Have to admit they make the best Pastrami Rueben in Reno. Ruebens can be made with corned beef or pastrami .. I sooooo prefer pastrami. But, Lou, you still don't have any pickles (gotta have a pickle with a deli sandwich). Still neat and clean, friendly and quick service. You've got to check this place out. I'll definitely be back.
