Delicious, fresh, and friendly! I stopped in around 5 am as I was jetlagged and needed an early breakfast. The volunteer that I met was very polite and let me walk around the cafe to see the interior design.
Gorgeous spot, great plant care by the volunteers, and super fresh food. ✨ (The latte was superb) ✨☕

The yellow deli has my absolute favorite atmosphere of a restaurant. It reminds me a lot of of the Shire in the hobbit so comfortable and relaxing in the food they have there is absolutely delicious fresh and homemade.

I haven’t been here in a couple years, I think the last time I’ve been was like 6 years ago. It’s been a long while and I loved it back then. I also know from friends that it hasn’t changed and it’s been just as good. I don’t come through this area often, but my friends wanted to meet up and have dinner here. Also the ambiance is so cozy and home-y! It felt like something out of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, some kind of fantasy tale.
They were quick to seat us, because we were a group of 5 we had the bigger booth upstairs in the back corner. Though we were seated quickly and our group trickled in after a few minutes, it took a long time for us to put our orders in. I feel like part of it is the booth placement in the corner. We spent a couple minutes trying to look at a server for eye contact haha.
I ordered the Veggie Burger, which I loved as a college student years ago, and a cup of the Butternut Squash Soup. Everything was absolutely delicious. The Veggie Burger was so tasty, it came with a side of chips and a pickle slice. The burger was hearty, flavorful, and had veggies like sprouts and avocado that tasted very fresh. For me, it was a hit back then and it still is a hit now.
And I wasn’t planning on getting the soup, but I saw on the menu that if it was the soup of the day then the Salmon Chowder would be priced differently. And Salmon Chowder is probably my favorite soup of all time. However when we asked, the soup was Butternut Squash which was a good one too. We got a round of 4 Butternut Squash soups for the table lol.
I just got the cup and I loved it. And the bread too! I wish I had another slice because I finished that in a couple bites. Anyways the soup was so delightful, it was so cozy and great. I loved the added nuts sprinkled on top, it gave a nice texture with the soup. I feel like with Butternut Squash, people have their preferences about savory and sweet soups and sometimes Butternut Squash tends to be more sweet. But I feel like Yellow Deli nailed the balance between the two.
Also I had a bite of my friend’s waffle … and I have to say that was definitely a Top 5 Waffle I’ve ever had in my life. It was just one bite but it was extraordinary. I’m not trying to exaggerate, it was just that good.
They have great quality food here and nice service. I had to dock off a star because we were waiting for a good 25-30 minutes just to order when we were ready. Other than that, we had a wonderful time.

Was a wonderful visit. Food was awesome as always and service was respectful consistent and attentive. I live by another Yellow Deli in Georgia and it was a true pleasure to visit this one. Same great service and craftsmanship of the interior. Highly recommend.

Don’t care if it may be a cult, super nice people and the most delicious food in a scenic, serene atmosphere. Never feel rushed here. Love to read at their restaurants by a window seat (so inviting). Whenever we’re in the area, this is where we’ll eat! Shared the soup of the day (tomato) and it was out of this world! Served with warm bread ands butter. Also shared the Rose sandwich (very good) and the strawberry cheesecake (so good) with coffee. Their coffee is very, very good btw.

The food was really good pretty expensive for like a sandwich shop consider you have to pay an extra dollar to add like anything buttt the sandwich was great the drinks were great and so is the cream cheese pie… however be WARNED the honey bun is a lie… it is definitely a HONEY BUN like a genuine burger bun with honey on it, our server wasent the best not very attentive and didn’t respond much but I mean she’s not getting paid so can u blame her? (See “honey bun” below)

What a nice place. Great interior decor and design. Their food was good the waitress was very quiet and reserved. A very creative menu for sure. I was disappointed in the fact that a basic breakfast was not an option. It must be a menu creativity decision. I would have lived to order corned beef hash eggs and toast or pancakes but NOPe!
We had no issues with our plates. There’s an upstairs dinning area, and food comes up on a CUTE elevator, too. I would certainly eat here again. Well done. Parking is very tight. It is right on the university campus area so it could get busy.

Incredible find at Yellow deli the day before they close for a month to observe religious holidays. Reuben sandwich & sockeye salmon sandwich and butternut squash soup all 10/10. Everything homemade with incredible attention to quality and intention. Our server Rafael was attentive, polite and very gracious. Music tonight was a surprise and delight -a trio of talented string musicians. Atmosphere draws you in from healthy plants, beautiful wooden details & macrame hangings. Can’t wait to come back to Yellow deli and try their other locations.
