It’s Time for Super Bowl Eats at Benjies Deli!

With a little less than a week left until the Super Bowl Sunday, you know Benjies Deli is gearing up and getting excited!  Last week’s games were absolutely unbelievable—49ers were so close to going to the Super Bowl, but those fumbles by Kyle Williams really set them back. It was a great run for the 49ers though, and a fantastic season. Can you imagine what a game that would have been, the 49ers versus the Ravens?! Anyway, we digress…

So they meet again, the New York Giants and the New England Patriots, face-to-face since that epic matchup in 2008 where the Giants upset the undefeated Pats. (more…)

Happy Chanukah—Benjies Deli Has Everything You Need

If you’ve been waiting for Chanukah to indulge in some latkes, now is the time. We do have them every day of the week at Benjies, but now is the time to really go for it and savor those delicious potato pancakes! Why not get some pastrami too, and sandwich it between two latkes? Hmmm, we might need to talk to the chef about putting that on the menu…

Come in tonight for our mouthwateringly tender brisket dinners, and our long-awaited roast chicken, which customers have been begging us to put on the normal menu. But we like to keep it for special occasions, like Chanukah and Yom Kippur. (more…)

‘Tis the Season for Benjies New York Deli

Our smoked fish tray is a popular one for parties, especially around the holidays!

There is so much going on in November and December—Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas—and Benjies Deli can help you with it all. What about the NFL and Monday Night Football? We’ve got it covered. We can’t help break the NBA standoff between players and owners, as that seems impossible even for them to sort out! We miss you, Lakers…

But back to celebrating the season, whether that be family holidays or sports! Thanksgiving is coming up, and many people have family in town for the whole weekend. Now, if you’ve spent hours (or even days) preparing a humongous turkey dinner for 25 people, the last thing you want to do for the rest of the weekend is cook. And, let’s be honest, there’s only so much turkey that a human can eat. Call Benjies! Make sure you call in an order for a selection from our hot dinners, served with potatoes, vegetables, salad,  rolls and butter. Choose from roast brisket of beef with potato pancakes, corned beef and cabbage, roast chicken, roast turkey with stuffing and gravy, meatloaf and gravy and Swiss steak. Make sure you call us BEFORE Thanksgiving though, as these orders usually need 72 hours advance notice. (more…)

St. Patrick’s Day Celebrations At Benjies!

It’s March, and you know what that means—why, St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, of course! We were just too impatient last month to hold our excitement in, but now the month of shamrocks, pots o’ gold, leprechauns (and Benjies Deli’s award-winning corned beef and pints of green Budweiser, too) is finally here.  The best part is that Benjies Deli won’t just be holding a one-day St. Patrick’s Day celebration—no sir, we will be having a week-long bash starting Monday, March 14 all the way through Sunday, March 20!

Why on earth are we celebrating St. Patrick’s Day for a week?  Well, why not?  Why not partake in Ireland’s most celebrated holiday, where we can honor the country’s most revered patron saint? Or, just as importantly, why limit our customers to just one day of celebration?  We would hate to see our customers have to wait in a jam-packed restaurant on March 17, so in order accommodate everyone, Benjies Deli will be holding the St. Patrick’s Day festivities for six days.

And, a bonus reason for celebrating St. Patrick’s Day is that the holiday is right before the first day of spring, and what better way to ring in the new season than with our famous pastrami and some matzo ball soup?

Come in during the week with your friends and take advantage of our big screens and full bar in the Bamboo Lounge. The Lakers are playing the Orlando Magic on Monday, March 14th, the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, March 18th, and the Portland Trailblazers on Sunday, March 20th—watch the Lakers win while celebrating the Irish holiday with some hot corned beef and cabbage and refreshing green Budweiser!

There’s Still Time To Order SuperBowl Sandwiches for Sunday!

Chicken salad

Fear not, dear Benjies and Superbowl lovers! There’s still time to order your party trays, appetizers and sandwiches for your Superbowl Sunday party. Why slave over a hot stove on Saturday when you could just pick up some wonderful, freshly made food from Benjies on Sunday morning?

Just think: a platter of deviled eggs, just like mom used to make, and made by hand. If you’re attending a party, these are a perfect appetizer to bring. Benjies also makes their chicken, tuna and egg salads from scratch too. What restaurant makes anything from scratch anymore? Benjies New York Deli, that’s who. They’ve been doing it that way since Stan Weinstein opened the restaurant in 1967. (more…)

Get Your Deli Platters for Superbowl Sunday!

Superbowl XLV

The clock is ticking on the final countdown to the Superbowl, and after last week’s Playoffs, fans from Philly and Wisconsin sure are looking forward to February 6th.

So the clock is also ticking on the time needed for catering. Benjies Deli has been taking a lot of orders for sandwich trays and deli platters for the big day. Countless eggs will be subjected to deviling, wings stripped from hot and spicy buffaloes and barbecue sauce applied liberally to tasty balls of meat.

If you want to have scrumptious Benjies New York Deli goodness at your home on the big day, then give us a call now to make sure we can fill your order. Let Benjies do all the work for you! Let’s face it—your wife will either be out shopping or, if she’s a fan, she’s going to want to watch the game, not make sandwiches for your buddies.

Here’s an idea: clear the coffee table and measure it. Then call Benjies New York Deli and order up a combination of sandwich fixin’s and finger food. Pick it up before your friends come over for your Superbowl party, unwrap the platters, and wait to see your friends’ eyes light up when they come in! (more…)
