Jimmy's Deli

Yarraville NY-style deli famous for the Katz Tribute pastrami Reuben and a half-kilo challenge.

Warm, homely and chatty, with staff who greet everyone with energy, a few small tables inside and comfortable outdoor chairs. A casual counter-style deli rather than a formal sit-down meal.

Everything toasted to order, a half-kilo New Yorker pastrami challenge with a wall of fame for finishers, rotating specials such as lobster roll, beef rib roll and chicken parma, house sweets including tiramisu, galaktoboureko and cheesecake brownie, and good coffee.

A tribute to New York Jewish deli tradition, with the Reuben named in homage to Katz's, and Greek touches such as kefalograviera meatballs, spanakopita and galaktoboureko.

Widely called excellent value for the size and quality, with a Reuben around $16 and huge portions. A couple of reviewers found the pricier rolls ($23 to $29) steep or too salty.
