The nearby Mimi's Cafe always has a huge crowd at breakfast, leading Deli Den to be a faster alternative. The breakfast offerings are great. A personal favorite is the feta and spinach omelet.
Deli Den also offers great sandwiches for the lunch crowd. On my most recent visit I had the turkey and avocado wrap, served with a generous helping of french fries. The avocado was perfectly ripe, which seems to be a rarity in restaurants.
The things that keep Deli Den from being a five star establishment are price and atmosphere. A sandwich and soda can easily run over $12 here, more expensive than similar restaurants in the area. The food here is good, but it isn't that amazing. Luckily, I am spared slightly as Deli Den offers a discount to teachers and military personnel with valid ID.
The atmosphere is a little odd. The furniture is utilitarian and the chairs are borderline uncomfortable. The bus cart for the dishes was located about five feet from my table last time I dined here, which I found to be almost revolting.
Other than that, Deli Den is a nice, locally-owned alternative to the chain restaurants that dominate the neighborhood.
