In the area for the weekend and drove to the strip mall to pick up something else. Was hungry, saw the storefront, and went in. Ordered Turkey with Swiss on sourdough...comes with tomatoes, shredded lettuce, mayo, and mustard. Really, really good and tasty sandwich, no shortage of turkey on it. Picked up some Italian imported hazelnut wafers for post-lunch. Everyone coming in was a regular...

Head cheese is great. Been coming here for the past 10 years for it. Never had any problems with service, they're pretty straightforward.

Low key one of the best pastrami sandwiches!!! It's simple but has a ton of meat, and never disappoints! If you're around the area pop in and wander the store and look at all the unique and fun treats while your food is made. They also have a great meat counter that has phenomenal sausages and fresh sliced deli meats.

Came here to write a review and the other comments crack me up. Da, if you want to experience service from the Soviet Union era you've come to the right place. You're not only getting Warsaw Pact goods here, you're getting authentic Cold War service as well. Where else can you get it? It's like a honest to goodness time machine. This is what service even in the US was like before megacorps took over everything. You go to every city and all you find are Walmarts, Targets, with the same service. This place is a gem. I get it that some customers had a bad time but when I was there a Russian customer was talking up a storm with the owners(?) and having a great time. They obviously had a connection and it was kinda cute to see that. I see that in Mexican delis and Chinese cafes too. Anyway going back to the review. I came here to get packaged goods that I can't get anywhere else (or have to pay a lot online). Make sure you check expiration dates because stores (even large ones) don't always check them for you. As far as the meats and cold food go, I didn't get any but I'll take a look next time. If a small store get a lot of traffic their food will turn over quickly, otherwise caveat emptorsky. There's also wines, snacks and other foods that are not available generally. These little stores are a godsend for people pining for food from the old country and I'm very glad that they exist otherwise we wouldn't be able to get them. I'm definitely coming here again.

This is a really cool deli in Bellevue. Full of sweets, baked desserts, books, a deli and a small grocery section with European and Russian items. Small selection of cakes in the front window. The deli has a lot of meats with some pickled items and fish. They have a small refrigerated beverage case with a few beers and other drinks. The one employee working at the register/deli didn't seem happy with the little line she had. I wanted to try out some things but due to how slow she was and not having anyone helping her, I left. I would come back later and try again, hopefully when there's more staff or someone who moves faster.
