Have a beautiful day everyone! Much love from the whole Charlies Deli family :))
We are currently accepting online orders for pickup and delivery! In response to COVID-19, we are not accepting on-location transactions at this time. THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING OUR SAFETY AND ENJOYING OUR FOOD!
Charlie's Deli opened in January 2015 and is located just inside the Chinatown Gate on the corner of Northwest 4th Avenue and Burnside St. Since then, "Mom" Alicia Matos and "Pop" Charlie Mattouk have been serving the very best sandwiches in all Portland.
Charlie's Deli interior, although currently closed to the public, designed by no one in particular, reflects the focus on food and service, while also paying tribute to the couples' passion of reuse and recycle. The street-level restaurant offers the choice to observe passers-by in on the patio (weather permitting), or hang out inside the eclectic dining room... again not open inside until further notice.

We were visiting Portland and came in on Friday to get a sandwich. It was incredible. The shop itself was fun and eclectic and the staff was so friendly. Two thumbs way up!

A deceptively large hole in the wall shop with a relaxed environment and strong flavors! Everything from the rueben to the pesto pasta side was great!

Charlie's does not disappoint. Great delivery to my office. On time. Always delicious. Many deli's around town could take a cue from Charlie's. It's my daily go to for lunch if I am stuck at the office. Delicious!

Hands down the best sandwich we’ve had in Portland. Well, the only one but I’m pretty sure no one else stands a chance. Great little git’up we thoroughly enjoyed this spot.

Made with local and fresh ingredients. One of the only reasons I miss working downtown...Charlie’s. In my top 5 of all time favorite deli sandwiches in the US.

Best customer service. We placed an order via Amazon Restaurants which got completely messed up...the driver apparently said he picked up our order but never did. Charlie called me directly and let me know that our food was still waiting and informed me that the driver never came but closed our order. He was extremely helpful. Then we spent the next 1.5 hours on the phone with Amazon (not great customer service!!) trying to figure it out. During this time, Charlie called again to check in as he knew we wanted to receive our order and not just cancel. We finally got a fresh order in. Charlie and his staff helped us out greatly and threw in an extra treat for us even though it was not their fault. The sandwiches were delicious but the biggest thing was the amazing customer service. Thanks so much!!! You will definitely be our number one sandwich spot!

I tried the Rachel and I loved it. The pesto pasta was very good too. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. I am only in Portland for a few days, but I'd like to go back here and try more sandwiches before I leave. I'd highly recommend going here!

First of all, the sandwiches, sides, and tomato soup here NEVER disappoint. High quality ingredients and delicious pairings! I've ordered delivery through Postmates but tonight my delivery person came to the door and said he didn't have my food?! A lot went wrong but the guys at Charlie's made everything right. They remade my order and hand delivered it. They got in touch with Postmates and got me a refund. They even stacked my bag with cookies and a brownie to sweeten the deal. I hope you guys read this because you made my night!!!
