Best Deli in Columbus · Columbus, OH
Katzinger's Delicatessen has been German Village's Jewish-style deli since 1984, stacking more than 50 named sandwiches — corned beef, pastrami, the Reuben — with a barrel of free pickles by the door. It's known for top-quality ingredients and a fiercely loyal Columbus following.
A neighborhood institution for four decades, Katzinger's is the 2026 Centurion Award winner for Best Deli in Columbus.
Each Centurion Award is a dated record tied to one year’s evaluation — earned annually, never carried over. Open a year for the full citation and verification details.
Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. Selection is by published criteria, never for sale.

This page is the standing record for Katzinger's Delicatessen (2026). It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. For hours, bookings, and live reviews, go straight to the business itself.
If you’ve put in the years, you may already clear the bar. Evaluation is free, private, and never for sale.
