The Delicatessen By Chef Joey
12811 N Tatum Blvd, Scottsdale, AZ
Crema's Take
“Chef Joey has created a genuinely welcoming neighborhood spot where the team actually knows how to make you feel at home—Matthew and Claire will guide you through creative drinks like their French toast latte and strawberry matcha while Chef Joey himself makes rounds to greet guests like family. The vibe shifts seamlessly from a quick grab-and-go counter for coffee and pastries to a cozy meeting space where you can linger over light food and thoughtful conversations, all backed by staff who are attentive without being fussy.”

As soon as me and my family walked through the door we where greeted with a warm and welcoming energy with smiling faces. Matthew and Claire were informative about the menu . It was so many delicious options and store is decorated with New York staples like snacks and pictures made out east coast natives very happy !
I had such a great experience here! we had a bagel sandwich and burrito with a strawberry matcha and don’t get me started on the french toast latte. Absolutely delicious What really made the visit stand out though was the service. Stephanie was amazing! She was super friendly and had the most positive vibes. Her french toast latte recommendation was truly one of the best. Great food, great coffee, and incredible service. I’ll definitely be coming back! 😊
Saw this place on social media and decided to give it a try. Coming in, you could automatically feel the welcoming and cozy environment. The workers were all very nice and helpful and answered any questions we had. I will say, it was definitely hard deciding what I wanted to eat because everything looked really good to try. I ended up getting The Deli Slam and the Little Italy drink and it was amazing! My daughters did a build your own bagel and they enjoyed it immensely. One of my daughters ordered a Strawberry Matcha with oat milk and the other ordered The Upper East Side with half and half and they loved them. Definitely will be coming back another time to try their other items.
Me and my friends stopped into the Delicatessen earlier today and all I have to say is wow. The service from all aspects is absolutely incredible, but especially Matthew. He is attentive, friendly, and kind. He went out of his way to make sure we were properly introduced and taken care of and we weren’t the only table he did this to. Not only was the service incredible, but also the atmosphere. There are plenty tables and counter space. It’s a gorgeous place and truly feels like a piece of new york was picked up and moved to phoenix. Last but CERTAINLY not least, the food. This bagel was seriously the best bagel I have had outside of new york. The build your own bagel was something I had never experienced before and was an incredible experience. We also got their salted caramel cinnamon roll, little italy latte, banana hazelnut latte, and the upper east side latte. The iced coffees come in cans and added to the experience in the absolute best way. We also got a chocolate egg cream, which I haven’t had in many years. I will absolutely be back and I’m counting down the minutes till then.
The Delicatessen is an absolute gem. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed like family. Chef Joey came out to say hello and was such a gracious host, passionate about what he has built and proud of his team. General Manager Matt was equally amazing, super helpful, and clearly runs a tight, friendly, and polished operation. The space itself is gorgeous, bright, modern, and Instagram worthy but still warm and inviting. You can sit down and enjoy full service or order quick from the deli counter. The food blew us away. The bagels are next level: perfectly fresh and chewy with just the right crisp on the outside and soft airy centers, some of the best we have ever had in Arizona. The house made chive and antipasti cream cheeses were incredible. We also tried the chopped chicken Caesar sandwich, which was great, but honestly the bagels stole the show. Every detail feels cared for, and the whole team made us feel like regulars on our first visit. If you are not checking out The Delicatessen yet, you are missing out. This place is easily 5 out of 5 Top Rahmun bowls. Can’t wait to come back.
