Apparently this is the spot where Deli Unique used to be - I grew up in the WB area and I vaguely remember going there. I had never tried Pickles and Rye Deli before and another friend always talks it up, so when a different friend wanted to meet here for lunch today I was excited to try it.
They start you off with a pickle plate, which was awesome, and some crunchy rye bread. The pickle plate included some new dill pickles and some old dill, my preference is new deal and so is my friend's so we asked for more of those.
I am not a big deli sandwich fan but it looks like they have breakfast all day, and I ended up getting a cup of the kreplach soup and two potato latkes. The latkes are small-ish but make up for it in volume - unfortunately I did not take a photo but they came with applesauce and sour cream and they were very good. On the menu, it says $6 per potato pancake and $15 for a plate; a plate is 6 potato pancakes, but you can get 2 latkes for $6, so I'm not sure why it says $6 for one.
My friend got the chicken Caesar salad, but with their garlic sauce instead of Caesar. I think she liked it a lot but she said their croutons have changed since the last time she got it.
I also got a deli sandwich to go for my husband, so we'll see what his opinion is of it. There are a lot of delis in this area, most deli sandwiches now range about $15 which I feel like is expensive, but this deli was on par with those prices.
My friend also got a slice of the strawberry cheesecake to-go for her husband and it looked really good.
Overall I would come back here just for the soup, pickle plate, and potato latkes, but I'd like to try more of the menu as well.
