Grinder's Deli

Amazing. The prices are a little high at first glance, but totally worth it. Sandwiches are huge. First time I tried it I thought there was no way I'd eat the whole thing, but I couldn't stop. Cool atmosphere with good music playing. Plenty of parking in back. My favorite sammich spot in town. Edit-I think they use magic here. -2021 Update- Don't listen to the 1 and 2 star reviews, those people must just be miserable or angry from covid. This place is still outstanding. It's window service now with outside seating and all employees were wearing masks. I tried the red pepper gouda soup today and it was delicious like everything else I've had here. If you want a sandwich real fast then go to Subway or something. If you want a yummy, fresh sandwich with great service then this is your place.

Walked to this spot on a whim and was not disappointed. Had the special (Christopher Walken) and the Poblano soup. That poblano soup was creamy with just the right amount of spice and a perfect roasted poblano flavor. The sandwich had fresh veggies with these awesome house made pickles dressed with a sriracha mustard and a blue agave aioli with some sliced turkey and ham with melted cheese all over. Everything was definitely fresh and delicious. The vibe is South Austin all the way & the staff and the patrons were all very friendly. I'll definitely be back regularly to this place.

I hate to do this to a local business, but this deli is just not worth it. I went here a couple of months ago and paid $20+ for a Turkey Rueben. I guess that would be okay if it were NY prices, so I expected it to be a similar quality. It wasn’t the worst sandwich I’ve ever had, but no where near worth $20+. The portions aren’t large and the sandy was pretty dry. The place kind of has a fratty type of vibe. Austin really needs some better delis tbh. Hoping this place can reduce their prices or change something up.
