Sodo Deli

Made this pregnant lady cry tears of joy twice over a sandwich. It’s not easy to find a place that even serves a gluten free sandwich, and usually if they do it’s overpriced and not very tasty. I had the turkey bacon ranch on gluten free bread, and not only does it taste heavenly, but it’s huge. I can’t actually eat the whole thing in one sitting. I can’t wait to try the other sandwiches, too.
The good is so yummy and so affordable, sure, but the icing on the cake was how kind they were to myself and my toddler daughter. They were so friendly and understanding, it made my day.
It *may* partially be the hormones talking, but right now I would eat here every day if I could.

Walked in n bam instatly was greeted. Orered food and withing 5 mins it was out in fron of us. Turkey, bacon, ranch is what I ordered and my fiancée ordered the French dip. Oh my goodness! So dleish! The suace on the french dip was so good. And the sandwich i was huge and omg good. I would recommend this place to anyone!

This place is great! Good food and prices! Great people! lots of selection! I plan to keep coming back for years and years! oh and they do breakfast all day!

The owners and staff here are unbelievably friendly. I recently started working in the area, and stop here for lunch about once a week. By my second visit both owners, and the server knew my name! The inside is sort of funky, I would recommend ordering to go, but — It’s rare to find such friendly and fast service in Seattle.
Plus the sandwiches are really good!

Upon entering this tiny deli, I was sure of 2 things: They have food and they have a bathroom.
Why is this important? Because I was also sure I wouldn’t want to use the bathroom during the Blind Guardian concert at Studio Seven, and I wouldn’t want to pay $$ for 1 beer or snack.
I stepped in timidly glanced looked at the menu. My boyfriend and I were in the process of whispering «are you sure you want this?» when the cashier urged me to take some more steps in with her award-​winning smile. When I told her it will take an incredibly long time, she grinned and acknowledged that sometimes, we all have really important first-​world decisions to make.
You’ll be happy to know that mine was a turkey sandwich that included bacon, and was delicious.
Oh, did I mention they have an awning? If you time it juuust right, you’ll be standing in a line for a rock show in the middle of November when it’s 40 degrees out and raining, but you’ll have the protection of the Sodo Deli awning, and the warmth from the door being propped open.

I have never been disappointed by a Sodo Deli sandwich. They are generous with the filling, know how to construct a sandwich so you don’t wear half of it AND what makes it even better for me is that they offer good gluten free options with their bread. So now it’s my go-​to place for lunch in SODO. Take the time, find this place and enjoy the genuinely tasty, generous and classic range of sandwiches and salads.

While interior of this joint was certainly questionable, we all know some of the best spots have that same feel to them.
I ordered a breakfast burrito which was pretty much the equivalent of eating a pile of slop wrapped up in a tortilla. It was wet and rather odd tasting. In their defense, one could say it was asinine to go to a deli and order a breakfast burrito, but I couldn’t help my cravings.
While the $ 9.00 breakfast burrito was pretty much shit, I won’t write this place off just yet. I’m willing to give it one more shot at some point in the future to try one of their deli sandwiches. Never again on the wet breakfast menu though.
Also worth mentioning that the staff seemed friendly and decent.
Steer clear of their breakfast menu!

The only reason I gave this place a 4 and not a 5 is because when I came in last week the door was broken and it felt a little sketchy! I am not a big Deli fan, usually the food at Deli’s is nasty, but this place was AMAZING! I got the BLT on gluten free bread and it was by far the best gluten free sandwich I have had. The bread was amazing, the bacon was PERFECT! My friends got the Rubin and they also were in love! I will be coming back here a lot!

Great food. the Hot Pastrami and Chicken Salad Sandwich was fantastic! Great food and close to the stadiums

This is my go to place for sandwiches. I’m sad that I live in the south end now and can’t just drive up the street like I use to. But anytime I’m in Seattle I stop here and usually bring an out of town friend with me. I love mom and pop shops lime this! And when you are remembered when you haven’t visited in months you know they rock at customer service. :)
I always order a triple decker! Can’t finish it in one sitting so there’s always some left over for later.

Super awesome sandwich. Even nicer staff. Seriously a place that makes you feel like a hometown staple. Miss out no more, Seattle. Check out the deli you have been looking for.

Love this place. This is the type of place that the hipster revolution is killing off.
The design, fonts and kerning are terrible but who cares. This is just straight up momma’s kitchen home cooking. Made by awesome people.
Often times the specials are spectacular. Like the Yankee pot roast which gives me a total Ratatouille experience but across the board everything is solid. Solid but not fancy. It’s like going to someone’s house… Who lives in Georgetown… and is super cool.
To top it all off you can get a Manny’s with your sandwich… solid.
And the treat my dog like a king.

In the words of the former Governator, I’LL BE BACK! Sodo deli is simple deliciousness. Small shop with amazing sandwiches. I tried the italian meat trio and the meatloaf sandwich and both were amazing though I favoured the trio. A friend hand the hot pastrammi which looked great and I will be ordering that one next time.

The Turkey Gobbler that had slices of turkey breast with cranberry cream cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes on your choice of bread was very delicious. Worth every penny! Also ordered the Beer Baked Mac & Cheese, which contained 5 cheeses and a cup of Manny’s beer make the most addictive Mac & Cheese you’ve ever tasted! Probably the best most filling and tastiest ever! A definite item to get!

Was in the neighborhood yesterday, starving, and randomly came across this place. There was a man (who I believe to be the owner) who was outside and happily yelled «best food around!» Well, he was right. My boyfriend and I ordered the pastrami sandwich, and the French dip. They both were excellent, and came super quick. Not to mention the horseradish they gave us was the the bomb. The staff was friendly, and checked in just enough to make sure we were okay. Definitely recommend checking it out!

Gahhh!
The meatloaf sandwich is huge and delicious. The old man behind the counter is so funny. Definitely a divy diner type vibe but it all fits.

Sodo Deli is just okay. I got the Italian Trio sandwich and wasn’t too amazed, it didn’t really have any flavor. I also got the beer baked mac and cheese and thought it tasted good and different in a positive way. I would come back just for the mac and cheese.

Came in today and the food was good but the service was slow. Also, a lot of yelling going on behind the counter made lunch unpleasant.

Stopped into Sodo Deli for a quick sandwich with my brother. The sandwiches were really good, but the initial attitude was not so much. I ordered the Pastrami, I asked for the habanero cole slaw on the side, annoyed face, then I asked for it on rye, annoyed face, I lastly asked for provolone… yep, annoyed face… My brother went the easy route and got the turkey just like they make it, still annoyed face, probably due to me… Both were very tasty sandwiches, but I won’t go out of my way for the annoyed faces. People finally warmed up at the end, but it shouldn’t be so easy to annoy people about a sandwich.

I got the chili and my fiancé got the Italian sandwich. The chili was good and fresh but not spicy which I like spicy but they have a whole bunch of hot sauce to choose from so that helped. I tried my fiancé’s sandwich and it was very good. Very fresh ingredients! The customer service is amazing!
The workers are super nice and friendly. They for sure get an A+
