Mitchell's Deli in East Nashville is a beloved spot for mouthwatering artisan sandwiches, creative soups, and a vibrant salad bar, all wrapped in a chill atmosphere perfect for a casual meal.
"Mitchell Deli is one of our favorite sandwich shops in town. Not only do they cure and smoke their own meats, but their menu has remained unchanged for years. Plus, the kid’s menu is streamlined in a way that only a parent can appreciate—grilled cheese, ham and cheese, turkey and cheese. The bigger mouths should go for the turkey avocado sandwich loaded with Benton’s bacon, or the Tennessee Tuna with pickled onions. Be sure to hit up their retro Sprecher self-service draft soda station for a root beer or grape soda. It’s a great pit stop on your way to or from the park, and even though there’s a line, it usually moves fast." - Adam Sloan
"Crisp, white butcher paper will forever make you salivate once you’ve had a Mitchell-made sandwich. The Turkey, Avocado and Bacon, served warm with melty cheddar, delights like no other. Bahn-Mi and Caprese are two other must-do’s, but you can’t go wrong. A hungover person’s dream, you’ll find a no-fuss, hot breakfast bar with eggs, bacon, biscuits and gravy. There’s also a lunch salad bar where beyond-ordinary toppings take plates of roughage to new heights. Sprecher sodas and Hubert’s lemonades top off your meal almost as well as the crisp pickle that arrives tucked into the paper beside your sandwich. Almost." - Perky Bros
"Part New York-style deli and part all-day bagel cafe, get your sandwich fix during Hanukkah with mouthwatering options like the Tennessee tuna melt, jalapeño pimento cheese, or a bagel topped with lox." - Kellie Walton
"A staple of East Nashville’s Riverside Village neighborhood, Mitchell Deli is busy at all times of the day. The shop is known for its interesting mix of ingredients, demonstrated in sandwiches packed with jalapeño pimento cheese, seitan, and a marinated flank steak. If you’re a vegetarian, try the BBQ Asian tofu sandwich with avocado, sprouts, pickled cucumber, and sesame ginger dressing on a hoagie." - Kellie Walton, Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
