Review of Kenny and Zuke's Deli Bar

To start off, the location is choice for me. Right...

To start off, the location is choice for me. Right around the corner from Powells with reasonable parking.

I was promptly greeted and seated in a great spot next to the window. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. He gave great suggestions and knew how to be playful but professional.

My companion and I decided to get two appetizers and two meals to share so we could try a little of everything. The pickled veg appetizer is a must! I would go back just for that honestly. We also got the pastrami cheese fries. The fries themselves were golden, crispy and delicious. I wasn't crazy about the pastrami. It tasted dry in my opinion but I have limited knowledge on what pastrami should be like so I would take that with a grain of salt. The Classic Ruben with horseradish really hit the spot. Perfect corned beef and sauerkraut. My friend got the Kenny Special. Basically Beef Pastrami, chopped liver, Russian dressing and coleslaw (from what I remember). I had eaten so many pickled veggies, half a sandwich and some fries that I saved my half of the Kenny Special until I got home. I ate it later that night for dinner. I was really underwhelmed by it. I didn't like the flavors and since it wasn't toasted, it didn't keep very well.

All in all, I gave it a 4/5. I will definitely be back!
