Guide Review - Miracle Mile Deli
It is difficult for me to order anything but the New Yorker sandwich when I'm there. (Funny, when I lived in N.Y. I never came across such a sandwich!) I might go in anticipation of trying something new, but it never works out. I love Miracle Mile Deli's pastrami and corned beef sandwiches, which have plenty of meat in them. The meat is usually very lean and tasty.
At this location, larger than their previous Phoenix spots, there are also baked goods available for purchase.
Not visible from the street, people don't seem to have a hard time finding the Miracle Mile Deli.
The deli at Park Central on Central Avenue is no longer a Miracle Mile Deli, it's the Park Central Deli, although many people still call it Miracle Mile. Also, a spinoff of the Miracle Mile Deli exists in a smaller version called the Downtown Deli, on Central between Adams and Monroe. All of these seem to serve the exact same food, although hot dishes may vary, and the number of selections varies with the size of the establishment. (10/05)
