D'Deli ~ Golden, Colorado


1207 Washington Ave, Golden, CO 80401

Not normally a big deli guy - due to years of too damn many project catered lunches of Jimmy Johns, Panera, Jersey Mike's, Subway, Quizno's, Wall Street (do we really need another deli chain, really?) Every once in a while somebody proves that there is a really good reason for a deli to exist. D'Deli is a slow, difficult to navigate, impossible to order in advance, largely staffed by School of Mines kids, and yet, somehow, makes the best and most eclectic collections of sandwiches I have found most anywhere in the world. Multiple corned bison and elk meat options - leading to Corned Buffalo Reubens and wonderful concoctions like the Frontier (a wonderful mess of a sandwich with corned buffalo, cole slaw, corn, black beans, bbq sauce - it's not a sandwich to eat out of your lap while driving). Their Banh Mi is epic, the Knuckle Sandwich is over the top, and everything I've had here is top notch (I generally order a large, eat half, save the rest for dinner). Top deli anywhere I have been!
