About this place Original Deli

Original Deli is a small, inexpensive deli at 1215 4th Avenue in downtown Seattle. It serves breakfast and lunch: sandwiches, poke bowls and coffee, with portions reviewers describe as large. It's a mainstream spot listed as gay-friendly, and it holds a 4.9 rating from roughly 460 Google reviews. It mostly serves the office crowd, so expect a weekday lunch rush and limited seating, and treat it as a grab-and-go stop. A few reviewers find some dishes on the salty side. Capitol Hill, Seattle's gay neighbourhood, is about 20 minutes uphill on foot.

A hidden place in a side alley. Great atmosphere inside and very affordable breakfast and lunch options. Dishes were a bit salty to our taste. Warmly recommended nonetheless!

Best hidden gem of downtown. How the physical space it’s in exists is beyond me. But the service is great (love the woman who runs it!!), the poke is delicious, and it’s very affordable. I always go when I’m nearby!!

The CUTEST little Korean lady welcomed me as soon as i walked in and i knew this was the right place to eat when visiting Seattle. Tucked in an alley the atmosphere is great. Small menu with a big taste! She even sends a wave and thank you to every customer on their way out. Would recommend.
