About Us

Welcome to Palm Avenue Deli, where New York deli classics share the menu with fun crave-worthy dishes in both Sarasota and St. Pete. Think matzo ball soup that feels like a warm hug, crispy chicken sandwich (or chicken and waffle) with the perfect crunch, and salads like the Famous Deli Cobb to keep things interesting. We’ve got breakfast all day, illy coffee and takeout that brings the flavor to you - because comfort food does not have to be predictable.

SCRATCH KITCHEN

Family recipes + global inspiration

Preserving the cherished family recipes that inspired our concept was essential. Creating new recipes that take our guests on a unique culinary journey has been a joy. With each bite, guests are immersed in a taste of tradition while savoring the thrill of fresh, modern flavors—bringing the past to life in the most delicious way.

From thoughtful ingredient sourcing to the final garnishes, every dish is crafted from scratch with care in every detail. Each element—from our soups to our sauces—is hand-selected and freshly prepared to bring authentic, homemade flavors to your plate.

cold brew to cheesecake

Comfort food and great cocktails? Yes and yes.

At Palm Avenue Deli, we’re brewing aromatic illy coffee, mixing up nostalgic egg creams, and stocking classic Dr. Brown’s sodas to give you all the authentic deli sips you crave. Pair your pastrami on rye with a classic cheesecake, or sip on something refreshing alongside your Famous Deli Cobb. Cheers to elevating deli dining!
