Don’t Miss a Minute of Lakers Action at Benjies Deli

Come on, Lakers! It’s time to close out the series! Who out there is completely amped for this year’s playoffs?? The Lakers better kick it up into full gear for Game 6 versus the Thunder!  Plus, the baseball season, with the Dodgers and the Angels, has gotten in to full swing. All of this excitement has us nervously biting our nails down to stubs, and we bet it’s getting you hungry, too!

If you’re starving yourself in fear of missing a second of the excitement, don’t worry!  Come on down to the Bamboo Lounge at Benjies Deli, where we have six large screens of sports on display every day of the week.  There’s also a fully stocked bar and an abundance of space to seat you and all of your friends, plus a regularly updated menu of bar snacks that will keep your tastebuds happy for every game.   With every angle covered by a TV and munchies to keep your energy level high for cheering and whooping throughout all four quarters of the game, you will be sure not to miss a beat of the action.

Dunk into a tall glass of iced cold draft beer, and score big with our corned beef, pastrami and swiss cheese triple-decker sandwich as tall as Derek Fisher.  Or you can just order a few of our deli platters, like the cold cut buffet or the 16″ ring sandwich tray. With our deli platters, no one has to worry about ordering, they can just grab a sandwich while they watch their favorite team.

Want to enjoy the game in the comforts of your own home and 80-inch HD screen instead?  All of our deli platters are available for home parties too! Make sure you call 48-72 hours ahead to order before your event. That way you can have Benjies Deli do all the work while you relax and take all the credit. Benjies Deli makes entertaining at home easy and delicious.

If you want to hold a private party for one of the big games, contact Benjies Deli to reserve the Bamboo Lounge and discuss ordering food for the event. Call (714) 541-6263 and ask for Lloyd Weinstein, whether you want to book a private party or have your home event catered.

Sports Fans: We Welcome You!

Lakers' forward Pau Gasol has helped the team clinch the No. 1 seed in the West

March Madness may be over, but sports are still in full swing in April—and beyond. The NBA is ramping up for their playoffs season, with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Orlando Magic and, of course, the Los Angeles Lakers all having secured their spot. In fact, the LA Lakers have clinched the number one seed in the Western Conference the third year running. Lakers fans, we’re not surprised, are we? Now let’s just make sure we make it all the way to the trophy like last year!

For those of you who like your sports outdoors with grass and diamonds, we are lucky to have two great teams in our area: the Los Angeles Dodgers and Western Division champions the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Just like grass? Soccer fans know that the Los Angeles Galaxy season is on now, with the team enjoying a recent win over Houston. And there’s only 60 days to go before the World Cup is played in South Africa…

The action is ramping up, and it’s hard to get tickets for every game you want to see, whether it be for basketball, baseball or soccer. But the Bamboo Lounge at Benjies Deli has six screens of sports action every day of the week. There’s a full bar and plenty of seating for you and all of your friends, plus a tasty menu of bar snacks that keeps updating throughout the week. If you want to make it more of a meal, Benjies full menu is available in the bar, so you don’t have to miss a minute of the action.

Baseball fans love their hot dogs (especially at Dodger Stadium!), and Benjies Deli has delicious Coney hot dogs, Coney chili dogs and the Francheesy, the most deluxe dog ever. You’ll never miss the lines at the stadium after watching a game at the Bamboo Lounge! Enjoy watching the Lakers with a corned beef, pastrami and swiss cheese triple-decker sandwich as tall as Derek Fisher, or salute soccer star David Beckham with a plate of fish and chips. Or just order a few of our deli platters, like the cold cut buffet or the 16″ ring sandwich tray. With our deli platters, no one has to worry about ordering, they can just grab a sandwich while they watch their favorite team.

All of our deli platters are available for home parties too! Make sure you call 48-72 hours ahead to order before your event. That way you can have Benjies Deli do all the work while you relax and take all the credit. Benjies Deli makes entertaining at home easy and delicious.

If you wake up late with a big appetite after a big night out, Benjies Deli is the place for you. We serve breakfast all day, and nothing is better to cure what ails you than a nice big omelette or a big plate of chicken-fried steak and eggs. Why go to a fast food restaurant for a breakfast sandwich when you can get a fried egg sandwich with bacon or ham covered in melted cheese on toasted egg bread at Benjies? Traditional steak and eggs or corned beef hash and eggs? Yep, we’ve got that too.

The NCAA championships are on this weekend.

Why not combine your Irish fun with Lakers basketball at Benjies Deli? The Bamboo Lounge has six TV screens, a stocked bar and Happy Hour seven days a week.

Start the weekend after St. Patty’s day off right by singing your favorite U2 song during the Benjies Deli Karaoke Night at 9PM.

Don’t worry if your friends or family don’t want to eat Orange County’s best corned beef and cabbage, you can still bring them along. Benjies will be serving their regular menu all week, including all-day breakfast—great for the morning (or afternoon!) after the party the night before!
