At Ruven's Restaurant & Delicatessen, we're proud to bring a taste of authentic New York deli to South Florida. Since 1997, we've been serving up classic Jewish soul food and beloved deli favorites to our loyal customers. Our commitment to quality, flavor, and tradition has earned us a reputation as one of the top delis in the region.
Our Story
Our owner, Steve Ratinetz, has always been passionate about recreating the classic New York deli experience. Growing up in New York, he was surrounded by the sights, sounds, and flavors of the iconic Jewish delis that punctuated the city's streets. When he moved to South Florida, he knew he had to bring a taste of that tradition to his new home. And so, Ruven's was born. Today, our deli is a beloved institution, attracting visitors from all over the country who crave the authentic flavors and warm atmosphere of a true New York deli.
