🗽 Hey DC, We Brought the Deli to You

What’s up, Washington?

We’re Mikey & Mel’s Deli, and we’ve got one simple mission: to serve up authentic New York–style deli goodness right in the heart of downtown DC—no flight to JFK required.

Whether you’re a bagel boss, a pastrami purist, or just someone who appreciates a sandwich you need two hands to handle, you’re going to feel right at home at our place.


🥯 What Makes Us a Real NY-Style Deli?

We’re not just tossing cold cuts on bread and calling it a day. At Mikey & Mel’s, we’re building sandwiches with soul:

Everything’s made with love, seasoned with a little sass, and served up fast so you can get on with your DC hustle.


🥪 What Locals Are Saying

Don’t just take our word for it:

“Finally! A legit deli sandwich in DC.”
“The pastrami is smoky, stacked thick, and totally worth the hype.”
“Those bagels? Unreal. And the pickle bar? Game changer.”

We like to say we’re a little slice of NYC with DC attitude.


📍 Find Us Downtown

We’re holding it down at 1828 L Street NW—just steps from Farragut Square. Perfect for lunch breaks, casual meetups, or grabbing a bagel and coffee before you crush your day.
