Rick's Deli & Market

One of the things that I love most about Greenville is that there is always a new restaurant to try.  Our city is growing at such a rapid pace that it seems we eat at a new place every week.  Last week I tried Rick's Deli and Market for the first time, and I was very impressed.   I think it's just what downtown Greenville needed.

Similar to a Dean & DeLuca, Rick's Deli & Market has sandwiches and salads, cold cuts by the pound, yummy baked goods, wine, and some specialty grocery items as well.  I love a quick lunch place that uses real silverware, glasses, and plates, too.  That's usually something you sacrifice when you go to a deli. 


I started with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc.  They offer a few wines by the glass each day for lunch.  At $9 a glass, the price was pretty steep, but well worth the mid-afternoon buzz.  They have several community tables, and a counter that overlooks Camperdown Way.  They've done a great job with providing a lot of seating for such a small space.  


Sandwiches are served on paper-lined half sheet pans, which is genius. Indestructible, stackable, dishwasher safe, and they have a really neat industrial look.  I tried The Cuban with fries, which was very tasty.  It probably had a pound of freshly sliced pork on it and the house-made pickles were amazing.

  3. Great review of Rick's new Deli. I tried the chicken salad sandwich, and it was really good. Cool photo of the wine and Riverplace, too.
