I was in town for work and a coworker suggested I try this place. He raved about the pastrami and corned beef. I had the tuna one day and the pastrami the other day, I prefer the Tuna. The pastrami was good, but the Tuna was GREAT. I also tried the banana pudding and german chocolate cake, they were alright... More

Nice to see that there is still a deli where the owner works side by side with his staff behind the counter filling carryout orders. As they say, the great ones make it look easy: great tasting corned beef (sliced thin), thick cuts of rye bread with a crunchy crust, homemade Russian dressing and your choice of either an “old”...

I love Corned Beef and I love this place! Located on 12 Mile Rd and Telegraph in Southfield, Michigan. I've had Corned Beef in many, many cities and keep coming back here. While not as big as some NY Deli sandwiches, the taste here is better. No seating, carry out only but worth it even of you have to eat... More

Star Deli is, hands down, the very best corned beef in the region. Hand sliced bread, overstuffed with moist delicious meat cannot be beat. I am partial to the Corned Beef Special, no cheese (corned beef, cole slaw, russian dressing)- but I have had great Ham and swiss and they make a Rueben that is out of this world! All... More

We go here every time we're in Detroit. All the food is great - corn beef, pastrami, cole slaw, potato salad, pickles, etc, etc. Very friendly staff. Carryout only, but that's OK.

Excellent sandwiches, like no place else I've ever been! Meat piled on, tasty deli bread, scrumptious side dishes too (macaroni salad, potato salad, coles slaw).

The pastramai on rye and chocolate cake were great, but not so great that I would go back. The service was disengaged, and even though I was the only customer in the place I felt as if I was really bothering the staff and they would have much prefered I walk out of the door and not bother them with...
