Lipkin's Deli & Bakery

Ordered the stuff French toast with a side of eggs. It was done fairly quickly, but I didn’t think anything of it when I opened it when I got home both the eggs and the bread were burnt.

Got a dozen Sufganiyot (donuts) for Hanukkah, six jelly filled, six Bavarian cream. They were they were incredibly dry, and half of them were missing filling. Will not be returning.

$16 Reuben special sandwich was poorly made. The corned beef was plentiful but I had to redistribute stale, small slices of rye bread could be bitten at same time. Russian dressing everywhere and coleslaw only on one side of sandwich. Not what is expected from a Jewish eatery at all. I miss the Jewish diner across the street. Lemon Danish was good, not great. Staff friendly.

Small pastrami sandwich served on stale and dry bread. The meat was heated upon request but it was barely above room temperature, I believe in a microwave oven behind the counter. Door was held open and dining area was well below 60 degrees. Kasha knish was tiny given it's price. The dish set in front of me by staffer was not what I ordered, but was switched with my dining partner who ordered corned beef. No public restrooms in this facility.

Nothing about the place was okay. My sandwiches were poorly made the meat wasn't fresh the bread wasn't fresh everything about it is horrible. Run for the Border. Just plain nasty

I recently visited Lipkin Deli and wanted to share my experience. While the staff was friendly and accommodating, there was a wait of 25 minutes for two sandwiches. To my disappointment, the sandwiches were made from pre packaged corned beef rather than freshly made on-site. Additionally, the corned beef was extremely salty and not the classic flavor profile I expected from a traditional corned beef on rye. Overall, while the service was pleasant, the food did not meet expectations.

Simple. Kosher. Delicious. Lipkin’s reminds me of one of the small spots in Squirrel Hill. Great selection of kosher meats. Sizable sandwiches and meat odds and ends like every flavor of knish.

We ordered a burger with fries and a shawarma for takeout. The shawarma was stone cold and tasteless. The laffa wrap was hard and stale. The shawarma meat, which is traditionally marinated lamb, veal or turkey was cold, sliced chicken schnitzel that tasted like it had been in the refrigerator for days. The burger wasn't much better. It was overcooked and the meat was chewy and of poor quality. We will not be back.

Only recently became a deli as well. Great new(ish) addition to the neighborhood, especially when other kosher shops have recently closed. Very heimish but also good tasting!
