My wife and i enjoyed this place. They make a delicious French dip plus have delicious onion rings. They made me a delicious cherry coke thats not on the drink menu. My wife and I split a piece of strawberry cheese cake that was so big we both almost couldn't eat but we did. This place is definitely on our list to come back to 🤤❤️

First time for lunch and overall impressed with the food and service. Joel was our waiter and performed admirably. I had the platter with 2 meats (corned beef and turkey), potato pancake and choice of bread. The corned beef was the best I ever had - very moist, tender and flavorful. Turkey was good too. Potato was awesome esp with homemade applesauce! Another diner had same but chose roast beef instead of corned beef. It was way too rare and impossible to cut with the steak knife. Joel immediately got diner a different meat which was enjoyed. The meals are expensive, however worth it for something you cannot get at just any restaurant in town. Some of us took half our meals home as the portions are quite generous. They have an actual deli counter with salads, meats, desserts and even ice cream. Parking is free if you go to Rosemary parking lot, then to kiosk and get validation. Overall a pleasant experience! I wish them well.

Not even close to being a decent Jewish Deli. Being from Cleveland, we were expecting quality as remembering Corky & Lenny’s or Solomon’s or our favorite Slyman’s.
Wife had a Rueben (dry with old corned beef), I had regular corned beef sandwich (dry with stale bread). In house service was non existent throughout meal! Then we made the mistake of ordering some chewy freezer burnt ice cream to go & a slice of coconut layer cake to split for evening dessert. Terrible! Need I say more? Find another eatery in the Rosemary District. Wolfies is the worst!!!

If you’re looking for an authentic, delicious, and incredibly satisfying deli experience, Wolfie’s Rascal House is absolutely outstanding!
We’ve been there many times, and it never disappoints. The food is phenomenal, our favorites include the corned beef sandwiches (piled high and perfectly tender), the pastrami, crispy golden latkes, knish, and the most comforting matzoh ball soup. Everything tastes homemade and full of tradition.
One of our favorite touches is getting our sandwiches topped with chopped chicken, so rich and flavorful. The cocktails are lovely, the portions are HUGE (you will not leave hungry and definitely food to take home), and the menu is extensive…there’s truly something for everyone.
The staff is consistently friendly, attentive, and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. It feels like a place you can relax, enjoy, and keep coming back to, and we do! One time, there was even live music. One of the owners has always been present and stopped by our table each visit to ask if we were happy with our food and service.
We always make sure to grab black-and-white cookies and rugelach to go… the perfect ending to an already amazing meal.
Highly, highly recommend. This place is a gem!

Let me start by saying the service is great.
The gentleman taking orders is really nice, also the cook making the sandwich was very nice. I have been here 4 times, my first time was a few months ago. The first experience was great, I got there just at opening time. I ordered corned beef sandwich on a bulkie roll, it was excellent. I went back a few days later and ordered a turkey on whole wheat, again it was great.
On my third visit which was a few weeks ago, I ordered a Pastrami sandwich on whole wheat. I could not chew the Pastrami it was so tough and fatty. I ended not even finishing the sandwich. Thus Thursday I went back, thinking it was just a bad day on last visit. This time I ordered a turkey on a bulkie roll. The roll was so dry that it fell apart, also turkey was also pretty dry. The common theme on the last two visits was that it was late afternoon.
When you spend $19 for a sandwich, you would hope the quality would be consistent. That being said, not sure if I would go back.
