Out of all the casual food offered in the Circus Circus, I think Westside Deli is one of the more decent places to go. If you can find this place through the poof of smoke that engulfs this entire casino, give it a try. It's not authentic AUTHENTIC deli, but it will do in a hunger pinch. Plus, you ever been to Circus Circus on a weekend? So damn busy! For me Westside Deli had the shortest line. Sometimes that can be seen as a bad thing, but thankfully for me it worked out OK.
Westside Deli offers deli sandwiches on its main roster, but does have other mostly American fare. Seems like a decent enough place for a quick breakfast or a speedy lunch to-go. They do nachos & chili, foot-long hot dogs, soups & salads, and even tacos.
I focused on my go-to when I visit a new sandwich place - for here it is the Clubhouse ($8.99). It is a triple-decker sandwich on toasted bread of your choice (got sourdough), with roast turkey, crispy bacon, lettuce & tomato. The sandwich comes dry if you request to-go because there are mustard/mayo packets available on the side for you to take along with you. Nice touch, because no one likes a soggy sandwich. If you choose to eat there they will ask if you want mustard/mayo on your sandwich. Sandwiches also come with your choice of chips, coleslaw, or potato salad, and a pickle spear. I went with the potato salad.
Verdict! Not that shabby! Sandwich is actually HUGE, barely fit in the take out container! Lots of sliced turkey, and the bacon was actually crispy. Lettuce & tomato were fresh and bright. I liked that you could add the mustard or mayo separately because you can add as much or as little as you like. Pile on that creamy mayo, baby! They also had packets of salt & pepper available, so adding that to my fresh tomato gave it some flavor. Plus, what is potato salad without pepper! Love my potato salad with a ton of pepper for some reason, always have. Overall this was a good sandwich with some pretty good (store bought) potato salad. The portion was large for the money, I ended up taking half of it home for a snack later. Good lunch fare.
I would be back here again for this sandwich, and maybe try something else on the menu. Only problem is that I'm hardly ever in the Circus Circus, and I'd be hard pressed to drive here just for the Westside Deli. If you're staying at the hotel it's a good option, for a more authentic deli experience you should go somewhere else. But I was pleasantly surprised.
