A renovated Ben's Deli has reopened at 32 Avenue B between Second Street and Third Street. (Perhaps you noticed the variety of grand opening signs?)
The renovations, dating to September 2023, took longer than newish owner Sammy Ksem wanted... in any event, the place looks spiffy... (Yes, there's still temp signage out front.) The all-new deli counter area features the return of legendary grill man Oscar... who left Ben's several years back and is behind the counter again... a welcome sight for anyone missing those egg-and-cheese sandwiches...
Ben Gibran sold the decades-spaning business to his cousin Sammy in early 2023. You can still expect to see Ben around the new-look space, too.

This was my favorite business in the whole neighborhood when I lived on East 3rd St. and the owner and cook are the best people you can meet. The deli cooked food and sandwiches rock , especially the hot breakfast. Best of luck and thanks for the many years of calling them my friends.
I'm so happy for you guys!!! The place looks great!!
Can you tell me if the bacon is thin and crispy? The only way a bacon egg and cheese will be good
Oscar the chef is always open to requests for regular customers Jess so go and ask
We waited so long. Thank you 😊!!
