Testimonials

On 3/31/2025 Charlene Corson Selbee had this to say:
Today’s stop at Water Street Deli in downtown Decorah for a fresh tasting sandwich is exactly what I needed. In addition to quality food, the owner, Logan, is very knowledgeable and provides exceptional service to everyone that walks in the door.

On 3/8/2025 Scott Biedermann had this to say:
Excellent culinary experience. Logan searches out the best quality products, and makes wonderful things happen with them. We also have bought the best quality seafood from him that I have ever had in the Midwest! Is there a 10 star review?

On 3/7/2025 SJ had this to say:
Logan was incredibly accommodating and the meat I purchased was high-quality! Testimonial written by SJ on this site.

On 2/8/2025 Anthony Mikes had this to say:
In town for a school event and had some time to explore downtown Decorah. Stopped in to grab a sandwich for lunch and was blown away with this deli. Read the reviews, they are all perfectly accurate. I ordered the Waygu Pastrami and wouldn’t hesitate to order again. This deli is a perfect example of a local small business that has a niche offering. If you are visiting, stop in. If you live in the area, support this business.
