I had been looking for a 1963 Galaxy left wing window replacement for years! So the other day I am doing laundry; just whites. Then my brother calls me on the phone. I answer and say "hey", and he says "hey". Then I say "what are you doing?", and I said "nothing". He says "Do you want to go to the swapmeet?", and I said "Sure". So he comes and picks me up, and on our way to to swapmeet, passed right by MSM deli. I said to my brother, "I wonder how long that place had been closed?", and then I saw people come out of the door. So went in and the place was freakin packed to the rafters. The guy behind the counter said 45 minutes for an order. So I did the sane thing and came back on a Monday. Great sandwiches in both taste and cost. You should put this on your list of places to try.

Theres a reason this place has a local cult following. Magical Sandwich Makers is so good, they dont need to advertise; word of mouth gets these guys enough business to keep the lobby full around the clock. Dont even try to get a quick lunch, because the wait can be 40 minutes if you dont order ahead! Yes. Its THAT good. Everything you like about your favorite homemade sandwich, but with better and more ingredients. Great variety of meats, cheese, and breads. And an interesting combination of Greek and Italian references! Theyre quick, know what theyre doing, and the no fuss atmosphere gives the joint a feeling of comfort in spite of pretty spare interior. Did I mention its also a pseudo mart??? All the drinks you could imagine :D

Been a customer for almost 20 years. MSM Deli is fantastic and reliable. The sandwiches still taste great. Wonderful family-owned business. Everyone seems to love the Mikes Deluxe sandwich, but my favorite is the Italian Coldcut Sub. You can get a 13 inch sub for less than Subw**y down the street and the sandwich is almost twice the size. Great value. They are quick and all the cops eat there. The line will be out the door at lunch. Its hard to place a phone order after 11 AM cuz of the lunch rush. So pack your patience. Great seating area in the back.

Created my own sandwich of pastrami on rye with Swiss cheese, alfalfa sprouts, lettuce, tomato, mayo, dijon mustard....Delicious!!! My hubs had a Philly cheese steak with veggies; he thought is was great and doesnt like veggies..lol.. We will definitely be returning. Great food at affordable prices. The convenience store aspect just means you have a good choice of beverages and sides to go with your meal. A great place to pick up your picnic meal before heading down to Ruston Way to enjoy the waterfront.

Ive been a MSMer for 10 years and my wife for almost 30. Had a lot of good sandwiches and a couple of just okay ones. Today is the first time I was really disappointed. They messed up our order. One of the sandwiches was really skimpy. The other sandwich was missing all of the meat. We didnt notice until we were too far away to do anything about it. Only thing to notice was that the son wasnt there and the father was. Well be back... but it was a really weird experience.

Very yummy, very full filling and wallet friendly sandwiches. My family of 3 can eat and have leftovers for just under 20$. I dont leave negative reviews because I eat so sloppily I ruin my own pants or because of the look of the place. I rate it on convenience, quality, taste, service and a few other things and this place holds up to the challenge. I love getting a sandwich and a beer and taking it home. If thats for you or if you like tasty sandwiches... Go here asap.

The sandwiches are delicious! They are huge and moderately priced. The staff is friendly. The two down falls - they are SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW (but its because theyre so good and so busy) and the place is a dump - sorry but Im not. It needs a remodel, bad. The floors are gross. The tables/chairs are gross. The smell in there is usually gross. Moral of the story: call in your order (but you will have to call 14 times to get past the busy signal) and get it to go!

This place is truly magical. Living proof that you cant judge a book by its cover. It is home to my favorite sandwiches and cookie. It is the only sandwich I have ever had a craving for. People in Tacoma will tell you whats up if you ask them about this place. Not to mention it has other sides and drinks to choose from. Hell, some people go in there just to pick up a drink the selection is so plentiful. This place is easily one of the best Tacoma has to offer.

If you think youve had a good sandwich before coming here, youre going to be WRONG. These sandwiches are magical and are made to order and perfection every time! I always get the same thing, the mikes deluxe. Life altering experience. This place needs national attention. Never had a negative thought or heard anything bad about this place. MSM Deli is the place to go for a deli experience youll never forget! I will always recommend.

Local, tasty and unexpected. I am so happy to have found this gem. The Deli does not look like much, as the saying goes "looks can be deceiving", a must if you are a local and a great if you are a visitor. Insider tip, call your order in about 30 minutes before you plan to arrive, they get busy. If you enjoy a Ruben, it is a must have with everything on it.

Great sandwiches, good selection of beer and snacks, always very nice. The folks behind the counter are masters of multitasking and can handle the the insane amount of orders while maintaining quality and a smile. Highly recommended. Order ahead if you are in a big rush, if not, enjoy browsing for a bit (it is really not that long for what you get).

I had my first Gyro here and it was delicious. Ive since had other gyros but none were as good as here. Its like a hole in the wall, with a large selection of drinks in a convenient store style set up. The deli had tons of options. The outside dining was nice as well. Next time I am in town I will have to stop here again!

The sandwiches were sloppily made. They tasted okay, but not the best. None of the meatballs on my sandwich would stay in the sandwich and one of them fell out and ruined my nice pants. But the service was quick and nice selection of sandwiches, drinks, and snacks. However I dont think Ill be returning.

I have been coming here for 20 years. I used to fight being a grown up and would chicken out from getting the Mikes Deluxe with sprouts because I thought I wouldnt like it (Im a pretty picky eater.) Man Im I glad I stepped up years ago. I still cant do the tomatoes on it but other then that...

MSM is good sandwich at a decent price and Mike is always friendly to me and my girlfriend. As an added bonus there is outdoor seating right on sixth for those that choose to enjoy our much-treasured sunny days. Amazing Baklava as well! Advice to person from New England: Go back, you douche.
