2024 Best Delis in Los Angeles Area

Classic Delis in Los Angeles

Delis — short for “delicatessens” — are an essential part of a city's dining scene. The best ones are generally open late, serve breakfast all day, and dish out comfort food in enormous portions. Many specialize in Jewish food, and some are even Kosher. Certain delis boast histories that trace back decades, while others have made their names by naming sandwiches for celebrities.

We believe that a big bowl of matzoh ball soup can be almost medicinal, and we think you'll agree after visiting the Best Delis in Los Angeles, presented in alphabetical order.
