 The Perfection & Satisfaction

The Perfection & Satisfaction

John Sayegh born and raised in the Bronx, he has spent nearly 40 years in the restaurant industry, mainly working in delis and markets. When he and his wife moved to Arizona in 1993, they began their desert delicatessen journey on Mill Avenue in Tempe. In 2003, the property owner of their current Scottsdale location told them they had to check out the new space available. Once they visited the space, it wasn’t long before they moved north to Scottsdale Promenade.

The Endless Options

All of the meat at the owner-operated deli is hand sliced to order, and they only use Boar’s Head Premium cold cuts. One of the most popular specialties on the menu is the roast beef, which is no surprise because the meat is prepared in-house, daily. Other hot sandwich options include brisket, eggplant, chicken parmesan, meatball and sausage and pepper. Sayegh claims if he had to choose a last meal, he would go with the brisket.
