Deli sandwich in Seattle?
Just moved here and found a couple good hot sandwich places (Tat's, Paseo) and I love Salumi but it's only open a few hours a week. Any other good deli sammies in Seattle? Thanks!

There's a few good places for sandwiches & it depends on your definition of deli.
I totally dig The Other Coast for their "Ragin Cajun"-a Cajun style turkey, pepper jack, cheese, tomato & onion with spicy salsa mayo served up Hot, their Reuben is damn good as well. On the Reuben tip, 74th St. Ale House in Greenwood is great. If you like a turkey sandwich like you make the day after Thanksgivin', then Bakemen's on Cherry St. down town is awesome: white, dark or mixed meats, on whatever type of bread, & served whatever way you want it. You can even get cranberry on it, just have cash in hand & remember the Soup Nazi from Seinfeild & your experience before you get you food will be pleasant. There is an order to ordering there, so be prepared. Try a brownie for dessert, sooooo chewy & good. If you want a Philly Cheese Steak, then go to Pioneer Square & hit up Tat's. Beef of Chicken, with or with out peppers, mushrooms, cheese whiz or provolone you can go there for a week & make a variation on their cheese steak & still not eat it the same way. So good y'all smack yourself for not never have gone there. If you want messy all over, but you'll still lick the juices off your fore arms, Paseo makes a killer, like in you should not miss it sandwhich. It's a CUban twist but es muy bueno!-----

re: Bethwick
I Heart New York Deli is awesome. You cant leave without trying the matzo ball soup. I also love Baguette Box (although I don't understand the popularity of the Drunken Chicken sandwich - all the pork sandwiches are wayyyy better in my opinion).
There are good sandwiches at Louisa's on Eastlake. Not exactly deli style but they make their own (super soft and delicious) bread and the sandwiches are very tasty and pretty big.

since this thread has been reopened, i am amazed that no one has mentioned the imcomparable I LOVE NY DELI in pike place market and with a new branch at 52nd/roosevelt - the best corned beef and pastrami within 500 miles (sliced to order), terrific breads, meats and condiments shipped from brooklyn and a rueben better than seattle deserves. the branch is moving into full meals (just breakfasts now) and table service - service remains a bit haphazard but the foods could not be better

re: knowspicker
Le Fournil is a great place--good, cheap french bread, tasty pastries, and gorgeous cakes and tarts, but the sandwich is nothing like a deli sandwich. Not that it's a bad sandwich, but don't come here if you're thinking hero.
If you're here for lunch, their soups are always great, especially the mushroom, and a cup comes with some bread.

I've tried Market House Deli on Mercer Island, which I understand is owned/supplied by the same maker, which has operated in Seattle since the 1940's. While I am no deli expert, I think the hot pastrami and corned beef sandwiches are quite good, not on par with Katz's Deli of NYC, but certainly fine for this region (and great for food-deprived Mercer Island).

There's a counter that gets filled up quickly, so seating can be an issue. The sandwiches are tasty and messy. There is a lunch rush and there can be long lines - I went at lunchtime and it seemed like the workers from the building across the street all take lunch at the same time.
Remember how close you are to the lower Capitol Hill...it's just up the ramp! You could always take a hike to Homegrown or Baguette Box. YUM.

re: Mike CP
It's a bit of a hike because of the hill, but is actually pretty close. If you are willing to drive to BB, there are pay lots around if you can't find street parking. There's more seating at Baguette Box, but it's mostly a communal table (and a few side tables, plus a high bar with stools). BB doesn't seem to get the lunch rush that Market House does, but both of those places are out of the way for me so I only go for lunch once in a while.

I second the nomination for Grinders. It's on Hwy 99/Aurora Avenue just south of 200th. Expect to pay around $10 for your sammie, but it's worth it.

I like the Other Coast Cafe in Ballard. Big fan of the Italiano or the Mantooth.

re: amyh18
grinder's in shoreline is fantastic.

also for straight up cheesesteaks philly fevre on madison and 23rd. get the peppersteak and specify sweet peppers.

other coast is good too. i agree w/amyh18 the mantooth is good as is their meatball sub.
i haven't been able to try tat's yet. their hours are so limited. i like the looks of the menu though and i've heard it's great. -

re: amyh18
I just found this site in search of a corned beef sandwich in Seattle. Why is it so hard to find?
I am astounded that Other Coast Cafe does not have a Corned Beef sandwich (and neither does Grinders). Seems like I have to go to Portland or Hollywood for a real deli. There used to be a real deli at Lower Queen Anne when I was growing up there in the '70s. but no more.
When I worked in Pike Place Market I went to THREE GIRLS BAKERY sandwich bar for a meatloaf sandwich.
