I was staying at South Point for a couple of days earlier this week and was looking for something to eat at around 10:45AM. I really wanted to try Steak 'n Shake, and decided to pass on Del Mar Deli and wait for S'NS to open. I mentioned this to my good friend Jay F. later that day and he said "Dude, Del Mar Deli is legit" and claimed they had the best bagels in Vegas, and better than the beloved Bodo's Bagels from our college days in Charlottesville (UVa). Those are big words and a high recommendation coming from a NJ native. So we agreed that the next morning, when he was taking me to the airport, we would meet at Del Mar Cafe so I could see what all the fuss is about.
The fuss is well-deserved. I ordered a Bagel and Lox sandwich on an egg bagel (toasted) for breakfast. It seemed a bit pricy at $10, but the sandwich had a generous portion of lox and cream cheese, and the bagel was oh so good.
Sandwiches here also looked amazing, with nice large portions of meat, and the desserts were HUGE. The tiramisu was the size of your head - literally. If the rest of the food tastes as good as it looks - and as good as the bagel I had - then Del Mar Deli is definitely a winner.
