Best Reuben sandwich I’ve had anywhere close by in a long time. Perfectly grilled, freshest ingredients, lovely and polite staff. The deli is clean, modern, and has plenty of seating. Great market selections too and meat and seafood options in the freezer case!

Love the crusty toasted bread, tangy mustard and tender pastrami of the hot pastrami sandwich. It was big enough that I shared it with my husband and was full! Super friendly staff and lots of samples to try. Love that they carry American Spoon and Matiz products. Thank you for bringing this much needed deli experience to Champaign!

Went there for restaurant week and got fig/arugula/prosciutto on a baguette. Y-U-M. Variety of boutique and bougie pantry items available. Delicious bread and lots of pastry options. Deli had some great looking meat, though most of the space was designated for baked goods. My friend, a local reuben aficionada, got the reuben and ranked it in the top two in Chambanavoy. Do not be deterred by the price, it weighed about 1.5 lbs and each half looked like a whole sandwich.

It’s super nice inside. Everything is fresh and made to order. It was given me New Jersey Housewives and New Jersey Shore vibes. The staff is super nice and very hip. I ordered the beef and swiss it was good. They don’t hold back on the meat. It was a big sandwich with fresh sourdough rosemary bread. They have good pastries and fresh bread. They have condiments you can purchase also. I definitely see them receiving great business here in Champaign. Definitely would recommend.

We loved sharing the turkey Reuben and matso ball soup. I especially like that it came with slaw instead of craut. A fresh made cannoli and bw cookie were hits for dessert.

We made the opening at Martinelli‘s Market Bakery and Deli today in Champaign. The food was excellent. I had the muffaletta, and my husband had the Italian sandwich. Both were fresh, the meats and cheeses were excellent, and the breads are their specialty. Our sandwiches were definitely large enough to share, however, we ate half and took the rest home for dinner. We also had the Italian picnic pasta salad. I will definitely order that again. For dessert, we selected the chocolate pistachio cannoli. Another great choice. The cannoli shell was dipped in chocolate and had a creamy pistachio filling. We live two hours away, but we will be back. Congratulations on a successful opening day.

We tried the matzo ball soup and turkey reuben sandwich…so good, and *huge*! Easily big enough to split between 2 people. And those pastries…mmm! Super delicious. Extra bonus: free parking in the adjacent lot – a rarity for downtown Champaign.

Decided to try this today. Got the reuben & they asked if I wanted a pickle spear. My answer: yes. When I got home the label clearly stated “Yes Pickle Spear”. But there was no pickle. When I called, the response I got was “oh, did I forget to give you one” That was it! No offer to correct it or anything. All I can say is Wow. Already unhappy before I even try my sandwich.

Very impressed with this new addition to downtown! We went for lunch today and it was delightful. The food was fresh, tasted great, and was a good portion size. The staff were super friendly and their outdoor seating is very nice. We had the Rueben, the fig/goat cheese sandwich, a cannoli, and a cronut. Everything was awesome!
