I only rated it as 5* because there is no higher number available. The 5* for atmosphere is based on the genre. I didn't think there would be a Jewish deli this good in the Midwest, but I was wrong. The corned beef, pastrami, matzoh...Read More

If you're traveling through Indy and looking for an O.G. family-run place to eat that's close to downtown and the Colts Stadium then Shapiro's is the place. It brings back great memories of me eating with my Grandparents in cafeterias with them back in the...Read More

Ended up here earlier on a Sunday, so the place was empty, which was great for me since it was my first visit. I was able to 'digest' the menu😉Ended up with two classics, since not only was this my first visit, but my 1st...Read More

I stopped in for a classic corned beef sandwich, and it was absolutely outstanding. The corned beef was perfectly seasoned, tender, and piled high on fresh, flavorful rye bread....Read More

We were in town for a concert at Lucas Oil Stadium and stayed at an Airbnb in the building across the street from the deli. I highly recommend to stay there if you are in town for a Colts game or any event. While staying...Read More

Spacious place. Went there for lunch and there was a long line but it moved fast. Friendly quick service. Had the brisket sandwich it was very delicious. The lemon cake and poppy seed cake were not very moist.

I would take this pastrami sandwich over Katz’s any day. Grew up coming to Shapiro’s and it is consistently great. It had been 10 years since my last trip back to Indy and much has changed with the exception of this restaurant.

Felt like I was in NYC! Oversized sandwiches allowed us to share. Also enjoyed the potato latkes and deviled eggs.

This place absolutely lives up to the hype. Best Reuben in the state of Indiana? No. Best Reuben in the entire country. No comparison. Everything taste fresh. Service is friendly and speedy. Absolutely will dine here again.

Classic Jewish deli experience. Outstanding in every regard. You will almost always see someone, though you may not know, that is noteworthy in this community. For example, today I saw a former congressman. I’ve noticed a few reviews concerning pricing. However, given that prices have in...Read More

Ordered the Ruben and I'll say it was the best Ruben I've had in a long time! It's a bit pricey but you're indeed paying for quality... and they delivered that quality. As for atmosphere, it was meh. Definitely a cafeteria atmosphere. However, the quality...Read More

Whenever I crave a great deli sandwich, I come to Shapiro’s. I live in Fort Wayne but, it’s well-worth the drive. My favorite sandwich is the New York Reuben on rye with two potato cakes and cole slaw on the side.
