Manhattan Deli

Today is the day!

🦃 It's Officially Turkey Todd Season! 🦃

This Friday, November 1st!

🦃Turkey Todd's 🦃 are back!

Our holiday inspired sandwich 🥪 starts with a heaping schmear of our homemade cranberry cream cheese, sliced granny smith apples 🍏, homemade stuffing, Swiss cheese 🧀, oven roasted turkey and then it's drizzled with homemade turkey gravy.

After we build it, we steam it up until it's hot and bubbly! 🔥It tastes and smells just like a holiday dinner at Grandma's kitchen table!

November 1st thru Thanksgiving!

Built fresh in-house every day! Freshly sliced meats, cheeses and veggies. 🥪 🧀 🥬

Here is your Wednesday lunch inspiration!

The Manhattan. You know you can taste the first bite! 🥪🥪🥪

We'd like to thank Karla Walsh for her list in Eater for the shout out of our little Deli on Ingersoll! What an honor to be on the list with these other Des Moines Icons!

The 36 Best Restaurants in Des Moines Massive pork tenderloin sandwiches at a quintessential shop, lentil tacos from a roving vegan bus, cider and pizza at an idyllic orchard, and more of Des Moines’s best food.

Our entire staff is cartwheeling 🤸‍♂️🤸‍♀️🤸 up and down Ingersoll! Just Kidding. But, they should!

📢 INGERSOLL AVENUE IS NO LONGER UNDER CONSTRUCTION 📢

Des Moines, please show your favorite Ingersoll businesses some major love and support and come on down to see us!

Your Friday Lunch Inspiration! A steamy hot Reuben on pillowey soft rye bread. 🥪🥪

We would like to wish this very special lady a Happy 89th Birthday! Yes, you read that right! 89 years old and she still works at the Deli!

She is a surrogate Grandmother to all of us, knows our customers by name and loves to bake homemade brownies! If you've had her pumpkin bars, you know what a legend she is! Happy Birthday, Vito! You make the Deli a special place in Des Moines!

This is your reminder to❗️EAT LOCAL❗️, Sandwich Lovers! 🥪

You get a long weekend, so we do, too! Closing up shop for the holiday. We'll see you on Tuesday, Sandwich Lovers! 🥪🥪

Homemade Tuna Salad on a pillowey soft Hoagie Roll is a classic!

Pro Tip: add mixed peppers for a little kick!

Sorry, Lobster Lovers! 🦞 ❤️

We sold out at the Iowa State Fair, which means we won't have Lobster Rolls at the Deli!

We'll see you at the 2025 Fair for the next round of fresh Maine Lobster Rolls.

If you haven't tried our homemade egg salad on a pillowy soft Hoagie Roll, we're sorry.

It's a must!

Just a reminder that tomorrow is Tuesday, Sandwich Lovers! 🥪❤️

❗️EAT LUNCH LOCAL❗️
