Detail for Lincoln Delicatessen (closed) : Restaurant, Deli
Wonderful family run traditional deli with old-school waitresses that had all worked there a decade or more. Great sandwiches and brunch specialties, sandwiches piled high with thin sliced lean meats on good bread. They had a Reuben and a Rachel to die for, great tongue and brisket. Wonderful baked goods, cakes and breads. My favorite was their potato pancakes, served with applesauce and cottage cheese or sour cream. We went many Sundays after church from 1986 until they closed, almost always had to wait in line for a while. The carrot cake was legendary. I don't remember exactly when they closed. - DaveS in MN, 06/20/2005
