🥪 A Taste of Tradition: The Best Jewish-Style Deli in DC

Looking for a classic Jewish-style deli experience in Washington, DC? Welcome to Mikey & Mel’s Deli, where tradition meets flavor just steps from Farragut Square.

Rooted in the rich heritage of New York’s iconic delis, Mikey & Mel’s brings that same soul-satisfying menu to the heart of the capital—with all the flavor and none of the fuss.


🧆 What Makes It Jewish-Style?

At Mikey & Mel’s, we honor the timeless staples of Jewish deli culture:

  • Pastrami on Rye – Hand-sliced, brined to perfection, and stacked tall.

  • Matzo Ball Soup – Light, fluffy matzo balls in rich homemade chicken broth.

  • Corned Beef Sandwiches – Served warm, juicy, and unapologetically thick.

  • Latkes – Crispy golden potato pancakes, served with sour cream or applesauce.

  • Knishes & Kugel – Classic comfort baked fresh, deli-style.

Plus, we’re serving bagels boiled and baked the right way, with all the schmears, lox, and accoutrements you expect from a true deli counter.


🥯 Modern Vibes, Old-School Flavor

While our menu is built on tradition, the energy at Mikey & Mel’s is pure DC. That means:

  • Quick, friendly service for busy mornings near K Street

  • Overstuffed sandwiches perfect for your next Hill meeting or lunch break

  • An all-you-can-eat pickle bar that keeps the party going

Whether you’re Jewish, deli-obsessed, or just bagel-curious, you’ll feel right at home at Mikey & Mel’s.
