Just happened to be passing through town, and stopped in for a quick bite. Got a triple decker corned beef and pastrami. Meat was tender and delicious, and the rye bread was so soft and fresh. We will be stopping by again!

Enjoyed reubens at Rubin Deli last week. Generous, delicious sandwiches. My party of three was very pleased. The service was prompt and friendly. We were so pleased to see that the dining room was open and so pleasant. Plenty of parking. Oberlin Fans
