YOSH’S UNIQUE DELI
58 FOOTHILL RD, RENO, NV 89511 – SOUTHCREEK CENTER
TUES-FRI (10 am-5 pm), SAT (10 am-3 pm), CLOSED SUN & MON
It’s been a while since I’ve featured Yosh’s Unique Deli in the WW, but believe me… I most definitely have not forgotten about this insanely great, locally owned establishment. Like the generations of culinary artists that came before them, Josh and Debbie, the current owners and operators of Yosh’s Deli, add their own “unique” and innovative recipes with an inspired passion for home-cooked food. They roast and smoke all of their meats and have incorporated local produce by partnering with the Slow Food Movement in Reno. They place a high value on keeping the company as green as possible to preserve the environment. Yosh’s Unique Deli brings back that local, family ambiance to Reno as a third generation family-owned and operated business. The photo above is of the mouthwatering “Nana’s Meatloaf Sandwich,” just one of the many premier, signature sandwiches on the menu. Yosh’s also serves fresh crisp salads, and offers catering service with an ample selection of tantalizing small bites and delicious entrées. Visit YoshsDeli.com for a peek at the menu and stop in for lunch soon. You will NOT be disappointed.

Put up your feet while soaking up the sun and taking in the snowy Sierra mountain view on this inviting front porch.  The home features rainforest marble kitchen counters, solid cherry cabinets, stainless appliances, a 50-year roof, and updated bathrooms… the list goes on and on… Email, or text/call me at 775-233-0682 if you or somebody you know is interested! Denise Hallerbach, Broker/Owner, Intero Reno (B.1001182.CORP).
