Devon & Blakely is the type of classic East Coast deli that you'll want to have in your arsenal of go-to restaurants. This casual eatery specializes in a staple menu of fresh sandwiches, soups, and salads, but just because these items are traditional doesn’t mean that they are boring. All of Devon & Blakely’s meats and veggies are fresh and high quality, which makes all the difference in their corned beef sandwiches, tomato and mozzarella salads, and old-fashioned chicken noodle soups. The menu also lists a variety of specials that change from day to day, and there are convenient lunch boxes that contain a sandwich, side salad, fruit and dessert to take with you for one low price.

The deli itself is bright, spacious, and modern, with a sleek glass display case filled with various colorful salads and a number of casual café tables perfect for having lunch with a friend. But if you'd rather eat back at Residences on the Avenue, note that Devon & Blakely delivers with a $15 minimum charge.
