Love this place! Been coming here for years and it remains one of my favorite places for a hot sub. Also has some of the best fries (both regular and sweet potato) that I’ve had in Austin. Portions are huge and prices are fair.

Quiet little place to get lunch. The grilled pastrami sandwich with a side of coleslaw was delicious. Definitely recommend this place.

Tucked into Austin’s Hyde Park, New World Deli is a neighborhood spot that delivers comfort food with heart. This cozy deli punches way above its weight in flavor, friendliness, and quality. It’s casual and unpretentious on the surface — but behind the counter, there’s serious attention to quality, balance, and flavor. It’s a place where classic comfort food gets just enough of a culinary upgrade to keep regulars coming back — and first-timers pleasantly surprised. I chose four dishes you might like to try, that people I talked to said they like best. I have tried all but the Sloppy Joe. Reuben Sandwich A perfect balance of rich, tender corned beef, sharp sauerkraut, creamy Russian dressing, and perfectly grilled rye. The proportions are spot-on, avoiding the soggy, overloaded pitfall that plagues many versions of this deli classic. Easily one of the most frequently praised items on the menu — and with good reason. This is my "go-to" when I am there. Buffalo Cauliflower This vegetarian standout is crisp, spicy, and addictive. Lightly breaded and tossed in a tangy Buffalo sauce, it's proof that bar-style apps can be elevated with thoughtful execution. Ideal as a shareable starter or a meatless main. “New Jersey” Sloppy Joe This double-decker rye sandwich layers house-roasted meats, Swiss cheese, creamy coleslaw, and Russian dressing for a rich, indulgent bite. It’s messy in the best way — nostalgic, but with cleaner, more deliberate flavors than you'd expect from something called a "Sloppy Joe." Philly Cheesesteak One of the more underrated items on the menu. It features thinly sliced steak, sautéed onions and peppers, and melted provolone, all nestled in a soft hoagie roll. It’s satisfying and generous without being greasy — a difficult balance that many miss, but New World Deli nails it. We also did a series on the Best Cheesesteaks in the area (not necessarily a Philly), but it deserves some love. Beyond the food, the space is cozy and lived-in, with a rotating art wall and occasional live jazz adding a layer of charm. It’s the kind of place that welcomes everyone — families, perfecr for date night or for remote workers who need a lunchtime break. New World Deli is a rare find — a low-key neighborhood spot that delivers high-level consistency, flavor, and service. It’s ideal for anyone looking for real deli fare with thoughtful preparation and a touch of Austin character. Whether you're in the mood for a perfectly composed Reuben or a plate of surprisingly excellent cauliflower, this deli doesn’t just satisfy — it impresses! #MattGoodEats

Friendly neighborhood cafe with live music and a thriving commitment around it. They have a deli menu and varied dessert case. I enjoyed the chocolate cake and appreciated the friendly staff. There is free parking in the courtyard between buildings and on surrounding streets.

I asked the cashier what are the most popular sandwiches and she said Reuben, Rachel and mixed deli sandwich sell well, so I got the turkey Rachel. It was pretty good for my first Rachel, the bread was toasted to a lovely color ❤️
