Step back into a retro Detroit gem on Michigan Avenue where the legendary Hygrade Deli serves up hefty Reubens piled high with corned beef in a friendly, old-school vibe.
"Head to Michigan Avenue near Hubbard Street for Hygrade Deli’s iconic Reuben sandwich. A mountain of freshly sliced corned beef is layered between slices of grilled rye with kraut, Thousand Island dressing, and melty Swiss cheese. It even comes with a pickle on the side. Save time and order online." - Serena Maria Daniels
"This venerable, full-service Michigan Avenue delicatessen is known for its corned beef and pastrami sandwiches. The shop makes a mean Reuben piled high with thinly sliced corned beef, swiss, sauerkraut, and Thousand Island dressing on toasted rye bread with a pickle on the side. Dr. Brown’s sodas are always on hand. Call in an order for carryout or dine-in at the restaurant." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Detroit means business when it comes to corned beef, a popular choice year-round. For one of the best sandwiches, head to Michigan Avenue for Hygrade Deli’s iconic Reuben. A mountain of freshly sliced corned beef is layered between slices of grilled rye with kraut, Thousand Island dressing, and melty swiss cheese. Restaurateur Chuck Nolen recently took over allowing for longtime proprietor Stuart Litt to retire." - Serena Maria Daniels

"The retro diner vibes are strong at the stalwart Hygrade Deli, where the servers and bussers make it a point to know regulars’ orders by heart. Grab a table or sit at the lunch counter, and say hi to longtime waitress Linda, then get to the business of tackling one of the deli’s signature ginormous Reubens stacked high with Sy Ginsberg corned beef. The monstrous meal is enough to keep anyone company and requires one’s full attention, rendering dining here with someone else pointless." - Serena Maria Daniels
