This is the place to go if you're looking for a fresh and delicious deli sandwich. As another reviewer mentioned its in a run down part of the city and the place is small but it won't disappoint! I've been to the Carnegie Deli in NYC and Slyman's is far better. If you live in the Cleveland area or you're... More

Fast service. Incredibly fresh and delicious. Gets very busy. Small place may have to wait for a table. Family run. So good!!

I said it, I meant it. Better than Katz', Carnegie Deli et al. Piled high, great rye bread, can be ordered in or carry out. Phoning in an order for carryout if recommended.

Fabulous corned beef piled higher than physics allows. I think of this place when I can't get here. Love it. Keep it coming. Deserves all of the 5 stars.

Seated quickly and enjoyed a delicious grilled Reuben piled high with tender thinly sliced corned beef. Excellent service throughout my visit. Will be sure to stop again when I'm back in Cleveland.

Day in and day out this place puts out incredible corned beef and pastrami sandwhichs at an incredible price. They recently just changed their pastrami and it is to die for! I am not from Cleveland but this is always worth the trip as once you have had one...you will always one to come back!
