New World Deli

Got the Rachel with corned beef. A very nice light, airy sandwich. Had dueling flavors with the sweetness coming to the forefront. Haven’t had this type of sandwich before so was fun to try! Fries were good, but could use more salt. Would come back and try other sandwiches again!

I asked the cashier what are the most popular sandwiches and she said Reuben, Rachel and mixed deli sandwich sell well, so I got the turkey Rachel. It was pretty good for my first Rachel, the bread was toasted to a lovely color ❤️

My granddaughter, a soup aficionado among many other talents, had a craving for soup today. Guided by Google, I stumbled upon this hidden gem. I ordered the deluxe chicken soup, which arrived hot and bursting with flavor. It was topped with smashed avocado and an assortment of fresh vegetables. My son chose the Cuban soup, and he thoroughly enjoyed it. My granddaughter, however, savored the tomato basil soup. It was simply delicious that we couldn’t resist dipping our freshly fried fries into it. It was an absolute treat! The cozy atmosphere and live music added to the ambiance as we enjoyed our lunch.

A great spot for a deli sandwich. The Cuban was a do again. The smoked ham and swiss was great as well, and nailed my order. The jazz combo was great.

AMAZING SANDWHICHES. The Reuben is toasted to perfection and taste amazing! The meatball sub was my personal favorite and everything about it tasted amazing. So happy to have found this place its glorious. I have also tried the turkey and provolone sandwich and it was the freshest and simply perfect sandwhich.

I found this little deli restaurant today. The Roast Turkey Panini (and potato salad) was delicious! I loved that, even being toasted, it was still juicy on the inside. The people are friendly, engaging, and interested in talking/interacting with customers. There's free street parking. Also they were setting up for some live music as I left.

This is a really good sandwich cafe in Austin. It’s a casual counter service place with reliably good food. It’s very normal and down to earth and not trying to play a gimmick or whatever other weird corporate thing every Austin restaurant does these days. The employees aren’t overly friendly, and they leave you alone after you’ve gotten your food (which I love). Sometimes they have music, which has been good every time I’ve caught it, but I usually go during the slower afternoon hours. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it’s a little expensive for what it is, which kinda sucks, but everything is these days so it’s not like that’s a unique problem.

I recently tried the Reuben sandwich here, and it was fantastic! The corned beef was tender and flavorful, paired perfectly with the tangy sauerkraut and melted Swiss cheese. The bread was grilled to a perfect crisp, giving the sandwich that ideal crunch. It came with a fresh pickle spear on the side, which added a nice touch. The portion size was generous, and the atmosphere was welcoming. What really made my visit stand out was the excellent customer service. I was greeted by the owner, Greg, who was incredibly friendly and attentive. He made sure everything was just right and clearly values his customers. It’s rare to find such genuine hospitality these days, and it made the meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommend if you’re craving a classic deli-style sandwich with top-notch service!

New World Deli is the true definition of a hidden gem! I stumbled across it by accident, gazing out the window while driving down Guad, and thought, "Hey! That looks like a cool local deli." Next thing I knew, I was there for lunch, and it's been a favorite ever since. The inside is so cozy--think half market, half deli--with a welcoming, laid-back vibe. The service is always incredibly kind and attentive, making every visit feel special. Their portions are no joke, though! I usually order a half sandwich (trust me, a whole is massive) and pair it with a cup of their creamy, flavorful tomato soup. The fries? Unmatched. Easily the best fries in the area, especially when dipped in their special sauce. I'm not exaggerating when I say I could eat an entire bucket of those fries--yes, they're that good. If you have room for dessert, the carrot cake is a must-try from their pastry section. It's always fresh and perfectly sweet. New World Deli is a fantastic spot for a cozy and delicious meal, and it never fails to deliver on quality and comfort. Definitely worth stopping by!

Lovely little neighborhood gem with amazing sandwiches, soup, and desserts. This place is easy to miss, especially given how fast everyone is driving on Guad these days. But, it's definitely worth the effort to stop and check it out. The sandwiches are super delicious, and you can't go wrong whatever you choose. They also have fresh soups, and I wholeheartedly recommend the broccoli cheese soup. On one of my more recent visits, I also tried their key lime pie which was the perfect balance of refreshing and sweet for this warm Austin autumn. NeWorlDeli is so deeply ingrained in the character of Austin and Hyde Park, and they offer live music performances, stand-up comedy nights, and great art by local artists too. The staff is super friendly too, and can answer all your questions about the menu. So, take your time, explore this little gem, and come back for more.

Good food, yet a bit pricey for the Club. If had seen the price point for this, may have gotten another option but counter menu didn't have prices displayed. With that in mind, it was flavorful and presented well. The soup was also good. A nice environment to eat and hang out while relaxing. Unique place and look forward to other options that are more aligned with price point.

I recently discovered this place and instantly fell in love! The vibes inside are so cozy, and occasionally they have live music. It's the perfect lunch spot for a sandwich! The veggie burger is AMAZING and I like that they have both impossible and black bean option. The only thing I would suggest is having a couple more vegetarian options for sandwiches.

Got the sandwich and soup combo. Soup was average but the sandwich's bread was super dry. I liked all the veggies in the sandwich. Service was nice. Lots of seating inside. Parking is on the left side of the building and you can walk in on the side of the building as well.

As a New England transplant, it's often that I'm craving a good ol' Deli sandwich. NeWorlDeli is the spot. The Chicken Curry Salad (with the works) is a must. In fact, it's hard to order something different every time I go because this choice is just THAT good. Sandwich sizes are substantial and served with a pickle spear. Ambiance is welcoming, often with live music. Beer, wine, baked goodies, and soups are also found on the menu. I will say, though, the Clam Chowder had too much dill and, while I'm glad to have tried something new this visit, I will not get again. Great location for a neighborhood walk afterwards, too.

I have been to New World Deli a few times and each time my food was hot and fresh. The staff was so friendly. And the crowd for both shows I saw were so polite and attentive. I LOVE their French dip. Even the hoagie it's on is perfect. Not too much bread. I didn't feel like I was still hungry after either. My friends got the hummus sandwich and loved it! Family owned and run. Check it out!

Sooooo good!! Such a cute vibe and they have live music sometimes. Enjoyed a little girl's lunch date here and will definitely be coming back. My sandwich was an Italian sub and I inhaled every last bit.

Came for the live music, stayed for the sandwiches. There were so many choices available! I went with the pastrami Reubens. It was the largest sandwich I ever had. He had the eggplant parm, which was also pretty big. I must come back and catch more local live music. The staff were awesome, and the food was delish

I stopped by for lunch on 3/20/24 after living in Dubai and Qatar 10 years, but I was born in Austin. It was just as I remembered it, only better. Greg said hi to two regulars and then stopped at my table. It's like chatting with the OG Austin star. My entire childhood flashed before my eyes and I'd be lying if I didn't admit I cried. My mother was a nurse across the street for 25 years and this was always my first stop after a surgery or doctor's appt on 34th. And for years on lunch work break. One of the most traumatic days of my entire life was made better in 2013 with a chicken cheesesteak. I've never forgotten how much it lifted my spirits that day. There was Tom Petty and Bob Dylan music, a soft harmonica playing, and our usual state worker regulars eating lunch. The OG Austin bliss like time captured in a bottle. You and your family are part of my best memories of my childhood Greg, thank you. The Rachel was better than ever and the sweet potato curry soup is the best I've had in Austin. Your daughters were amazing, I can't believe how much they've grown. Love you to the moon!

This is a lovely mom and pop spot with all the charm, love and attention you could ever want. Super fresh ingredients, soft bread, options galore, vegan friendly, beer and wine, desert, plenty of seating and good music. Friendly staff, and great location. I love this place.

Rainy days call for grilled cheese and tomato soup and this one was perfect! Sour dough bread toasted to perfection was perfect for dipping. You can chose your bread and cheese. Super helpful and friendly owner ! Clean warm atmosphere, bonus there was a fantastic musician playing live. This will be a repeat place to explore the Menu and atmosphere

This cute little retro cafe is far enough away from The University to attract a more diverse crowd than just students, and it's housed in a cool building that looks like it was originally early 1900s retail shops, with the recessed doorways surrounded by picture windows, raised ceilings with decorative tin squares, and transom windows situated over the porch overhang. They've partly knocked out the wall between two original spaces, so the food counter is on one side, and the tables and corner stage are on the other. There are a few tables out on the sidewalk as well. The back is open to a shared space with the other shops, and that's where you'll find the restrooms. Okay, so I love these old buildings, but the food and the live music are the main draw here. They offer a wide range of sandwiches made with fresh baked bread (gluten free available), salads, and some tasty soups and desserts. Drinks include Maine Root fountain sodas, a wine list, some cans and bottles of regional beers, and more cans and bottles of non alcoholic drinks. You order at the counter and they give you a number and bring it out to your table. We enjoyed the hummus sandwich on sourdough, and their classic Rueben. Friends ordered an array of dishes, including the chef's salad, paninis, and sweet potato fries. The key lime pie was delicious. We look forward to trying some of their other offerings too next time. Prices are about average for fresh made deli food. The music was singer songwriter folk style and made for a relaxing, enjoyable evening. Parking is available in their small adjacent lot.

I came by for a quick lunch after having seen this restaurant for years. I stuck with some tried and true options, the turkey and gruyere sandwich on toast with a side salad and balsamic vinaigrette. Service was friendly, prompt and everything was fairly priced and fresh. I was really impressed with everything I got. I'm excited to come back to check out more of the menu. I'll give this an update when I have made a few more visits!

Needed a quick lunch between meetings - stopped here and split a chicken salad on a French roll (simple and delicious - none of the stupid fruit or nut additions some try to throw into chicken salad!) as well as a cup of the cheesy broccoli soup (thick, cheesy and amazing) - this place is awesome - I will definitely be back when in the area :)

Best Reuben sandwich in town. They also have incredible French fries. They also have their own parking lot so it's easy to access.

We loved our experience and NeWorlDeli! Such a fun ambience because we randomly stumbled across a bluegrass open night evening when we came! There were so many people who brought their banjos and fiddles making for a very fun atmosphere. The food was excellent as well! We got two sandwiches and a sweet potato fries which was a lot of food! Each was excellent and the fries were some of the best we've had!

Downright the best sandwich I've ever had. I live 80 miles away in San Antonio and every time I'm in Austin I always stop at NeWolrDeli. Greg the owner makes everyone feel so welcome here. He expressed his gratitude and appreciation for my business. Never had a burned sandwich. They are always toasted to perfection. The pastrami and corned beef is the best I've ever had. This place is awesome. Definitely recommend NeWorlDeli. Thanks for all the hard work keeping this place pumping out incredible sandwiches every day and providing a place for live music and local artists to call home.

Car broke down but instead of breaking down I chose a new vehicle: the submarine. Gimme summa dat!!! Pristine meatball sub washed down with some Joe Tea. Nothing smoother. Points lost for the omitted letters, but points gained back for the interior pickle smell and tea/lemonade stock. Before getting the official New Jersey Deli stamp of approval, cold sandwiches will be tasted and tested. Shows promise! In fact, might be a whole ~new world~ for the lunch hour.

I've lived in Austin for 12 years and this is my go-to lunch spot. Excluding the pandemic, I've had a sandwich from NWD once a week for over 5 years and have never been disappointed. My standard order is the pastrami sandwich on sourdough. My wife enjoys the turkey pastrami Reuben. Others we've brought here for lunch have tried a number of their items and they are ALL WINNERS. Great staff, friendly owners, and a chill atmosphere make this an ideal spot for a casual lunch or quick dinner. They also have live music events on a small stage. My wife and I rented out the main dining area for our rehearsal dinner and Greg (owner along with wife Sarah) put together a great menu for the event. I can't recommend this place enough!

Excellent customer service, even better food! The owner was so patient while we took forever to decided what we wanted. Then he brought us a free basket of fries with our meal. Our sandwiches were delicious but those sweet potato fries are something special!! We visited on a Saturday and they had great live music too.

It's four star considering it's a deli and not full scale restaurant. Very old Austin casual neighborhood vibe. There was live music when we went. Large portions and lots of options. Mostly sandwiches and burgers.

What a cute little place! I never new this was here. There is a parking lot behind (if you're unable to find it). A friend and I sat here for hours just chatting after our lunch. I had a turkey reuben and it was delicious! I also ordered an eggplant parm to take home for dinner and it was also great. I want to try more from the menu because it looks like your typical NJ Deli type menu!

Some of the best pastrami and corn beef on rye out outside of New York City and I would take a picture and show it to you, but we will sit down and then they clean the table so I can show you an empty table. If you want authentic New York, this is the place to be In Austin . even though the chef is from New Jersey.

This is my new favorite deli in the Hyde Park area. I decided to take a walk here for lunch the other day since I was craving a hearty sandwich and hot soup. It's hard for me to find a deli that has good gluten free bread and I'm happy to say, I've found the place I've been looking for all this time. The restaurant space is a good size with outdoor seating. I was very impressed by the menu and all of yummy options to choose from. I decided to go with a Turkey pastrami on gluten free bread with a tomato basil soup. My expectations were blown out of the water. This was one of the best sandwiches that I have had in a while. The staff is very friendly and happy to accommodate you in any way. The owner was there when I went and you can tell that he takes pride in his business. If you're in the mood for a hearty meal, this is the place to be. I will return to this establishment and recommend it to all of my friends and family.

I love the food here! I was saddened when the counter girl, Emma, appeared to be in a less than welcoming mood. She looked happier in her pictures on the wall. Confusing atmosphere. No music either. I'm sorry if I bugged her with my request for more saltines.

Definitely get your sandwich toasted. I loved my sandwich and my friend didnt and I think that was the difference. Coming here is like a step back in time in a way which I appreciate. It has charm that isn't Instagrammable.Be sure to look up the schedule to see if there are performers in case that's not ur vibe, otherwise the music is fun.

Okay, how cute is this place. When you think "local Austin sandwich joint" this place checks off all the categories! Love the "library cafe" vibes and exposed kitchen with jugs of peppers and other condiments spread throughout the register space. Theres a stage in the corner and while I haven't been here during a live set, I bet it really sets the mood! Oh, did I mention they have kickass food too? Sorry, too busy basking in the warm lighting and local art. They've gotta have a killer meatball sub because looking around there are at least four patrons eating it right now *takes mental note to get that next time* In a nutshell, I definitely recommend trying this place out at least once. It's not 5-star gourmet, but performs exactly as you need it to for a great cafe experience!

Had a great lunch! 1/2 sandwich, chips & a drink. The Italian mix meats sub all the way.

Hallelujah! After moving here from NYC I've been craving a decent deli sandwich. And this shop met my sandwich needs. I had the tuna melt on sourdough. It came out hot and fresh on toasted bread. I feel like I've been transported back to a NY Diner. I can't wait to try the Rueben! Service was super friendly and helpful. The place has a nice, relaxed vibe with live music on a Thursday night. I'll be back!

A sandwich establishment that isnt trying to invent the wheel with its standard deli offerings, with plenty of additional offerings. The mixed deli (ham, salami, pastrami) on a hoagie roll is what you would want from a deli sandwich. Id say a texture offering for a sandwich establishment. Their breads here are good, but I can't help to feel the way they toast them leaves them a bit too crispy. Their pickles are a bit mushy, so not sure if they pickle them in house or if it's just a weird batch.

Old Austin, comfort food, friends and entertainment await! This place is cozy and informal with a diverse deli menu that offers something for all comers. The tuna melt on rye and the curried chicken salad are YUM+! Austin local musicians are featured most nights, and Fridays appear to be a comedy showcase. We saw The Panama Hats perform, and absolutely hope to see them play again!

We love NeWorlDeli! Greg and staff couldn't be nicer. Everything is delicious. My go to is the chicken curry. The portions are large. They even offer "more than a half" which is large too. Tuesday evenings they have live music and it's so much fun. Love this place.

This is a Mom and Pop run deli (Greg and Sarah are mom and pop to three beautiful daughters). The restaurant offers the quality you'd expect from a personal touch. Food is EXCELLENT. One of my long time favorites in Austin and I have been here for 40 years. My favorite sandwich shop and deli in town.

Neworld makes the BEST broccoli cheddar soup. Their portions are just right to fill you up, with tons of sweets behind the counter who could hate this little business?? The live music can get a little loud, but if you go in the afternoon, it makes a great brunch

World's greatest Reuben sandwich! Love the tomato soup and chicken salad as well. Greg and his team have been an institution for as long as I can remember and such a great part of our neighborhood.

TLDR: They had no right to make sandwiches this good. This wasn't my first visit to this place, but the first time I've remembered to take pictures and such. This place is truly phenomenal. every time I have been here, they hit top marks. It certainly isn't "cheap", but I wouldn't call it pricey, and the food is well worth it. the Aesthetic is pretty classic deli, a bit cramped, and but the whole place feel comfortable. The Reuben that I had this time was amazing. The sauerkraut is piled high, as is the meat, and the dressing balances everything out perfectly. I'd eat here every day is my waistline and wallet could handle it. 5/5.

We happened to stumble ourselves in for lunch. It's a small little shop that you'd miss if you didn't know it was there. NWD does the trick for a good sandwich though. It was priced right, has a nice staff, and was a great visit

I had never known this cute deli existed on the drag until my girlfriend performed here. They have tons of gluten free options! This is my favorite gluten free deli in Austin. They have ample parking. I ordered a delicious gluten free tuna melt. The tuna could have used more salt but it was still really good. The customer service is really good.

A delightful dine-in environment with lots of tasty options. They have a fun map/globe theme. Very friendly.

Wow wow wow top notch service!!!! I'm not sure if Greg is the owner and/or manager but the kindness and enthusiasm was just the tip of the iceberg. My modifiers on my Turkey club were a breeze for the staff. It's simple, but most people will put my allergies on "by mistake" and then instead of remaking the sandwich, just pick it off. They did it right the first time. Level one passed!!!!! Next stop, checking how everything tasted. Greg was there and ready for feedback AFTER we took a few bites, not as the food hit the table like a lot of places. For a counter service spot, Greg was on it!!! I knew he'd be there if I needed anything or had anything he could correct or improve on. Such a kind soul. It's my last weekend living in Austin but I'll be sure to stop by whenever I'm back around!!!! Thanks for a great lunch Greg!

Their pastrami reuben is a beast. I don't know why I'm surprised, as this neighborhood deli/cafe boasts "old-fashioned sandwiches piled high with fresh deli meat, cheese and all the trimmings"... no false advertising there. Prices are reasonable, mostly indoor seating with a few bistro tables outside (but next to a busy road), Maine Root soda fountain (they currently have a check-in offer on Yelp for a complimentary drink), and lovely folks running the establishment. A definite gem in Hyde Park.

Second time having lunch at this place and I loved it again. 5 stars, food was perfect, can't go wrong the tuna melt sandwich. service was excellent, I will be back for sure !

The Sandwiches are huge and packed full of the chosen meat! Service is fast and you will leave full and happy!

Great food and service! Has a very welcoming and low key vibe. I had the tuna salad sandwich and a slice of cheesecake. Both delicious!

I'm not the kinda person that leaves a review but... I had to. This is my go to, my saving grace, my comfort food, my cheat meal. the food always slaps! The staff is always so friendly! Can't give this place enough stars... AND LIVE MUSIC!!!

I can't remember the last time I was here, but NeWorlDeli has always been great. Their menu has something for everyone but this gal ALWaYS gets the pastrami Rueben. Great service, friendly family owned and operated. A little pricey but worth it once in a while. Yum!

Best tuna melt please ask for sourdough bread. Tune perfectly made. Yummy!!!!!!!!! I will definitely patronage again

Great food and even better service! The staff is so kind and attentive. They will make sure your order is just right.
