Sandwich a5o manyuke, sorry for my language 10/10 sandwich. If you get the tuna melt ask for extra mayo besides that perfection

Sandwich never fails. Fresh, big and perfectly put together. Workers are always friendly and welcoming

One of the last remaining Dearborn businesses that has served the local neighborhood for decades; a true gem in these changing times, a place to sit and feel comfortable, read a menu on the wall and see your sandwich made by loving people who care. No revolving door of employees, no skimping on ingredients. This is the real deal folks. Please keep them around forever!

This is definitely a great place to go for some really good Jewish deli food! It's very small but cute. They do have some patio seating, too. Service was fast and friendly. The food here is really good, nice size portions and priced lower than I would have expected. I got the Rachel, AKA Carol's Temptation, and local friend, Yelper Amy B, got the Uncle Louie's BBQie, a brisket sandwich. Both of us agreed they were good hearty sandwiches that we had trouble finishing. They offered us the combo version, which gets you an individual bag of Better Made brand chips and a soft drink with free refills for $2.50. Thanks to Yelper Al P for another great local recommendation. If you're in the south part of the metro area, he knows the best value eats in the area. A solid 4 stars. So you ask? If it's so good, why not 5 stars? A few recommendations for the owners: * Take out a table. It's just too crowded. * The chairs are very uncomfortable. * Call out customer pick-up numbers once when the whole order is ready instead of once for the drink & chips and again for the sandwich. Dont make your customers have to get up twice. * Make sure the cheese is melted. Mine wasn't.

I don't remember how I first heard about Mati's, but I've had it bookmarked for years. Every time I'm in Dearborn as of late, I'm doing something else and don't have the time to stop in and check it out, or it's closed because they aren't currently open on the weekends. In a city that isn't known for it's Deli's, this place was a pleasant surprise. Today, I had the pleasure of meeting fellow yelper and extraordinaire, Mike G from Columbus here for a quick bite. Normally, we'd be hitting up Ford's garage, but I really wanted this place! I noticed online that the insides a tad small for my liking, and despite that, I really had a good time here. I went with the Uncle Louie's BBQie sandwich because I'm in a long standing, loving relationship with anything brisket. Mike, on the other hand does not eat red meat, so he went with something even fancier than moi, an got a chicken sandwich. While the tables here are very tiny, as is the restaurant, we both had a really good meal and enjoyed our time together. When we got there, it was awfully quiet for a Monday, but as we sat through our meal, more people started piling in. Doctors, automotive workers, retired people, families. Just a nice slice of people to see coming in for a quick bite. For drinks, they do have fountain pop and it's free refills. The cups are small but the staff here is really friendly, which I appreciate. The only complaint that I had, is the timing of how our food came out. I got mine first, but then it took Mike's meal much longer to arrive despite others ahead of him getting their orders before. He still got his food, but I do notice and I'm not sure what the hold up was. No issue or problem, just a minor annoyance because we love Mike G! Overall, it was worth trying and I'm glad we did. Food was spot on, and the portions were good for the price. (Deli's can be finicky about some menu items and charge another zillion dollars for extra sauces, napkins or anything they want because they can and I'm glad they do not do that here.) If you're in the area and want a low key place to sit, have a quick sandwich and chill, this is your place.

Mati's deli is a easily the best deli in Dearborn. It has a fun, nostalgic, vintage atmosphere. my "go-to" sandwich shop for 5 years. Even after the passing of the the beloved owner Lou, his family has carried on his work and is continuing to put out a high quality product. Great service and very friendly staff The Chili is a no brainer here. It goes great with every sandwich. Tip: ask for a piece of rye to dip in the chili, amazing! The best rye bread. I've also heard the broccoli soup is very good though I just stick with the chili. Great array of sandwiches as you'd expect from a good deli. Good rueben. Other favorites are Uncle Louie's BBQ, Jerry's Club, etc. all great choices. Nowadays, I typically just go with whatever they have on special in the current week. They rotate weekly and all of the options are amazing. The best is probably the potato pancake sandwich special!

Mati's Deli is a very old fashioned sandwich joint; the interior looks like something you would see in the 80s. They do churn out some good sandwiches but just be aware, prices have gone up by something like 50% over the last couple of years. Reuben ($14.99) - This is quite a large sandwich piled up with corned beef and sauerkraut. If you get it with chips and a drink (which I think was something like $3 extra), it could probably last for two meals. There is a pretty small amount of Russian dressing on top - the sandwich probably needs double the dressing to make it great. There's a slice of unmelted swiss cheese in the center. Everything is on perfectly toasted rye. This is just personal preference, but I wish the entire sandwich were heated so that the cheese could melt. The sandwich came with a standard pickle wedge. I know they are totally different, but there are several Italian delis nearby where you can get multiple sandwiches for the price of one here. I think Mati's is great for an occasional treat given the price.
