Generally highly praised for delicious, moist pastrami, excellent American-style deli sandwiches, and friendly, passionate staff. The atmosphere is described as chill, lively, and welcoming. Some recent feedback notes concerns about portion sizes and pricing for sandwiches, especially the Reuben, compared to competitors.

A family-run business by two brothers, Mob Deli prides itself on in-house smoked meats and handmade bread and spreads. It aims to bring an authentic New York deli experience to Tel Aviv and is located near the Carmel Market.
Fantastic first experience at Mob Deli! A friend told me I had to try the pastrami sandwich. As promised, the sandwich was excellent: tender, smokey pastrami on very fresh rye bread. The caesar side salad was also delicious. Highly recommend! Can't wait to return and try the reuben sandwich!
I’ve been hankering for smoked meat since being in Tel Aviv. I found some in the Carmel market but that wasn’t enough to quench my hunger. So I found Mob Deli.
We ordered the pastrami on rye, with extra pastrami, and a burger with fries. They came out very quickly and they nailed it. The pastrami was moist and salty, the chips were crispy and salty. Perfection.
The San Miguel was on tap and on point.
Amotz, one of the owners, was up for a chat and is a character.

Found that place by accident, and trusted the rating. Delicious pastrami, fresh, melts in your mouth (Katz Deli NY shall come here for training). Amazing staff, great music. I regret that I didn’t discover that place earlier. Thank you for your hospitality, great food and great atmosphere.
The people working at the shop are so knowledgeable/passionate/and nice, in regards to American style deli sandwiches. Can't recommend this place enough. Very reasonable prices for the product that you get, especially for TLV and especially in this area!
Went today with two friends and ordered the Reuben sandwich.
The sandwich costs 67 NIS and includes 130 g of meat and one pickle on the side - no fries, no salad, nothing else.
If you want a more standard portion of 200 g, you need to add 50 g of meat for 21 NIS. That brings the total to 88 NIS - still without any side dish.
For comparison, at Ruben’s you can get a 200 g sandwich for 62 NIS.
The sandwich itself was fine, but the pricing feels hard to justify, especially considering the portion size and the lack of sides.
