Bitterman's Deli Review

Egg bagels and everything egg bagels were delicious. Very hard to find in Austin

Very disappointed. Poor Rubin and poor bagel and lox. Won't return.

The tomato basil soup has been really great on these cool days we've been having. The service is awesome and the joint is really clean.

Only place in Austin i find chopped liver, pastrami and matzo ball soup - with bagels - under one roof in Austin. Nice Jewish boy from Brooklyn NY, this is ecstacy for me :-)

A friend at work told me about this place. I wasn t sure I even liked Corned Beef or a Ruben. But, Oh My God!! This place makes the best sandwiches I ve ever had hands down!! You have to try the Cleveland. It s beyond delicious.

Such a great place to get bagels! Their vegetarian lunch options are fantastic too. Love the Austin Splendor and the Pesto Potato. The staff is always very nice as well.

Good veggie sandwiches three kinds plus I thoroughly enjoy the Reuben and the tuna melt. Be sure to try any of the delicious items in the case.

Great sandwiches; Vegan options, clean qnd inviting place, with kind employees . I got the butternut squash sandwich- though not very filling; it was suprisingly delicious- wish i would have added avacado in place of the removed feta- but goodness gracious, all the tastes compiled together were amazing( argula, balsamic vinegar, butternut squash, and tomato were what i remember)... my friends smelled delicious; too- though i cant remember what she got..

Very disappointed. Poor Rubin and poor bagel and lox. Won't return.

What a gem! Excellent sandwiches and great atmosphere. Loved the Clevelander and the deviled eggs were delicious!

The Clevelander and House Reuben are on-point! $7 for a slice of Cheesecake is a little steep, but almost worth it, if you love cheesecake as much as me!

Drove in from Liberty Hill (30 min drive). Didn't get the chips that my husband ordered or the mayo on his sandwich. We thought the sandwiches are good but check your order before leaving!

Good delis are hard to find. Lots of sandwich shops masquerading as delis but Biderman's Deli is the real thing! The House Reuben is a killer reuben! It was the best I've had in Texas, My friend had the Far West Club which is turkey, ham, swiss, white cheddar, bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo on sourdough. It is a huge sandwich and very tasty. Highly recommended!

I thoroughly enjoy this food - in particular the roast beef and cheddar is hands down my favorite sandwich in Austin for lunch at the very least, it is by far the best deli style you can get in austin at a pretty decent price.

It is SO hearty and the veggies are fresh and sliced thin - YUMMM.

It was off the online menu for a little while (i typically order online for pickup) but happily have seen it return and it was super loaded today

Thanks y all!

Vitamins Deli is a hidden treasure if you want real Jewish delicatessen food this is the place to go!

NOT KOSHER (nor do they claim to be). Damn good bagels. Matzo and coffees kinda bland.

Maybe today was an off day, but these were the worst bagels I have ever had. I grew up in NJ and have definitely been spoiled, but I was so looking forward to a bagel and couldn't have been more disappointed. We couldn't even finish them, and had to go get breakfast tacos.

Great! Delicious fresh bagels and great sandwiches! Lovely local place that's always got a crowd.

Great corned beef stacked high on fresh rye, better than any I've had in town. Will return for another of their sandwiches.

This is the closest thing I've had to New York/Montreal deli food I've had in Austin. The Ruben is spot on and the servings are generous.

Good bagels even if they aren't New York style. Coffee is reliable drip, a notch above what you'd expect. Good lox and chopped liver. Bagel dogs are inexplicably good. I'd rather have a different kind of pickle, but who's perfect?

We were visiting Austin and decided to try a Jewish deli. The hubby is from Jersey, he's Jewish, and finding a good deli is tough when you're not in the Tri-state area. We have been in the Midwest for 15 years and haven't found a decent Jewish deli yet. We always look for one when we travel. Sadly, Biderman's wasn't going to be it. The hubby's pastrami was sub-par and tasted packaged. The latkes and matzo balls were pre-made. Booooo! My egg salad was tasty and enormous. Th staff was friendly and the store was clean.

Big sandwiches. Friendly staff. Bagels. I love their breakfast . The scrambles are great.

Great. But it was to much mustard on the pastrami sandwich

Super friendly staff and very good bagels for Austin, service was great and the food came quickly. I would highly recommend the dill and pickle cream cheese. They do sell out of bagels so if you have a particular kind in mind get there early!

Fabulous food. Relaxed atmosphere and big portions.

Good...enough for Austin. Bagels were all sold out (by 130) which was disappointing. Mostly sandwiches on the menu. Pastrami sandwich was good, but nothing blew our minds.

Not much Jewish Deli competition in ATX, so a welcomed addition. I'll be back to try a bagel.

Good coffee, very good bagels, nice staff, looking forward to coming regularly.

The sandwiches here are amazing and I could survive only on their deviled eggs.

Friendly, quick, and amazing bagels. What else can you ask for? Will definitely be back.

SKIP SUBWAY.... COME HERE
Ok... so I'm in town on business.. I'm looking for local places. Found Bidermans on maps. Looked at menu. Thought what the hell...15$ for a sandwich. So I went.. the staff is friendly... i ordered turkey and. Swiss.. was asked if I wanted what comes on it. Yes but I got it on rye. With chips and a coke..and tip... 17$. Thought well... this better be good...
It was... plain and simple. Id put it up against Katz... the sandwich is BIG.
The vegetables were fresh... the bread was fresh... A+++... SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BUSINESS
The photo does not do it justice.

Great first time experience! Highly recommend this place for take out or Grubhub. Very kind and professional on the phone, and cordial in person. Thank you Biderman's

Biderman's stopped making their bagels in house when they expanded and opened the new Westlake location. They outsource their bagels now.

I love the idea of a great deli, and the atmosphere here is wonderful. But the bagels my wife and I got here didn t measure up - both dry and crumbly, not at all what I expect a New York bagel to taste like. Maybe just a bad batch, but we were not impressed.

Food is fantastic and the staff is very welcoming and friendly. Definitely a good place to become a regular.

Bagels as close as we can find to Zabars or H&H in NYC. And the staff is always friendly and welcoming!!

The best bagels in Texas! Absolutely scrumptious. I'm from New Jersey and it reminds me of the bagels from New York and New Jersey. My favorite is the everything bagel with chive cream cheese schmear. Their whitefish salad is delicious! Definitely recommend this place for a delicious breakfast or lunch.

Theres a reason this is on the Eater list for best in Austin. We eat here about every other week and they have never disappointed.

Having lived on the east coast for many years I've grown quite spoiled of traditional Orthodox Jewish delis. Although Bittermens was good it fell short by comparison to east coast. I will not hold this against them. A corned beef sandwich did come to almost $17. It was a little beyond what I was hoping to spend for even a good sandwich.

Very much enjoyed the Ruben and the cheesecake was delicious!

Very friendly service. An interesting and tasty pastrami taco. Solid coffee. I'll be back.

We live very close to the far west location and go at least once a month! I love the tuna melt or the vegetarian potato sandwich! My husband loves the pastrami or the rueben.

Best bagel shop/deli I've been to in Texas. East coast style. 5/5.

Solid bagels. Hailing from NY I guess I'm slightly qualified to rate a bagel spot. Only think that prevented it from being a 5 star was the sub par coffee. If you want to charge $2.75 for drip coffee don't serve it from coffee dispenser. I'd go back. If your comparing this to Nervous Charlie's, this is without a doubt better.

Max purchase of 6 bagels. Definitely a disappointment after driving all the way down there. The Chive cream cheese was okay it didn't have a ton of flavor. The Bagel was tasty but I don't know if I would drive back down there for it.

Great sandwiches, great bagels and a friendly staff. 5 star experiences every time I've been in.

This place makes a sandwich that'll make you wanna a

Great staff and the food is amazing. Home cooked goodness really lets this eatery stand out amongst the microwaved, re-heated fare, found at most places.

My sandwiche was ok but nothing fantastic, service was quick and rather fast

Delicious sandwiches will definitely revisit highly recommend

I adore having a cup of coffee (or four ;) and an everything bagel made fresh! Clean, fast, friendly and great prices

Best food west of austin with great service and enthusiastic employees!!!

If you having a day of New York nostalgia, this is the perfect place to slam down an everthing bagel with lox. The ice coffee is on point too.

Seriously? You run out of bagels by 9:30-10:00? Then why stay open? Bake a few more if you know you run out for Pete s sake. Very disappointing.

This place is definitely my happy place (having grown up in New York). Most days it's packed around lunch, but still worth the wait! F9d is delicious and authentic, and all staff are so friendly.

Expect a crowd and possibly having to wait for a seat. And there's good reason for both. The reuben is fantastic. This is definitely the place to come if you want deli sandwiches. You'll be happy.

First time and they re not only out of ALL begals but to switch it to regular bread instead they wanted to add $4 on per item! Oh and they d bring you the ingredients for your sandwich and you d put it together at the table!!! Absolutely ridiculous. Our family of 5 walked out after being told regular lox and cream cheese w/out the begal would be $13

Lived in NY and Boca but apparently Austin only Jewish deli has the worst options

I especially like their inhouse pastrami breakfast taco.

Legit Deli with good array of hot and cold sandwiches and homemade sides. Also serve homemade bagels for breakfast.

Bread is made in-house and the food exceeded all my expectations!

Great bagels and breakfast sandwiches. Excellent and friendly service. Clean with a dog friendly patio!

This place has a nice atmosphere and a delicious Reuben sandwich, however I was not as enamored with the bagel as I expected. It was good, but not notable.

Best Reuben I've ever had, hands down. I've also tried the Far West club and it's a close second. The potato latkes on the side are good if you're not ordering a monstrous sandwich (like the two aforementioned) otherwise you have a full meal from these leftovers. Have heard good things about the bagels so I'm heading back to try them soon. Neat space and friendly staff.

Bided mans is like being in ecstasy !
The best hot pastrami I ve ever had and I grew up in Phila. The cheesecake is a superb German very light and delicious!

I'm a vegetarian and the Austin Splendor is absolutely amazing. I get it on sourdough. One of my very favorite sandwiches and restaurants in town, and I fortunately lived right down the street. You feel like part of the neighborhood when you eat here. It's a healthy portion, too. Very high quality.

I've never had anything i didnt like.
The bagels and shmear = wonderful
Sandwiches and meats/fish = fantastic
Sides and desserts = delightful
Coffee. =
Staff = always super pleasant

My favorites are definitely the Clevelander and the open face white fish/Mehlman bagel

So glad I found this place!!! The food is great :)

Best bagels and breakfast sandwiches! Love the corned beef, egg, and swiss on a salted bagel.

Delicious. Everything we ordered came out just the way we wanted, and fast, and super yummy. We will be back.

Took my mom here who grew up in New York City going to Jewish delicatessens and she was very pleased with the sandwich that we purchased.

Biderman's was fantastic again! We split a Clevlander sandwich and an everything bagel with chive schmear with lox! Perfection!

The corned beef egg and Swiss breakfast sandwich on a salt bagel was fantastic. Will definitely be back. Clean, flavorful, friendly staff, good price range. Can t beat that combo.
