Great Reuben, but probably will not return. I like the style of Jimmy & Drew's, it felt a bit like an actual Jewish Deli. No one took my order, let alone acknowledged my presence, for at least three minutes while I waited at the counter. It was 1:30PM and it did not seem busy. After my wait, I asked the gentleman when the last order of Amoroso rolls came in. He gave me a roundabout answer, "every few days...they're fresh." In my opinion, you should know (and honestly say) when your rolls were delivered....and by what mode of transportation. I might have gone with the cheesesteak had he given me a straight answer, but I went with obvious choice, the Reuben. It was one of the best tasting Ruebens that I have had in a while and I looked forward to each bite. Only problem, I'm still hungry! I'd expect a place like that to have at least 30% more meat....especially for a dime piece ($10). Maybe it's Boulder (see Salvaggio's review), but $10 often disappoints in quantity of meat.

If money ain't a thing, grab two Reubens and talk about Brooklyn. If you're trying to stretch a buck fuhghettaboutit and grab some phở in the same plaza.

Incredible soup, kugel, sandwiches!. The matzoh ball soup is terrific - the matzoh balls are big and well seasoned and the soup has great flavor. The kugel is huge and creamy. Sandwiches get raves. Also tried the cheesecake - outstanding. Great selection of deli faves like half-sour pickles too. Worth the trip to Boulder, don't miss it if you're in town!

Best Reuben Sandwich. Ate there once and had the reuben sandwich. It was by far the best reuben I have ever had and I have tried them throughout the country over the past 40 years or so. Apparently Jimmy & Drews prepare their own corned beef, it's not bought from a supplier. The only thing I had, but if the other selections are anywhere near as good, Jimmy etc may be the best deli in Colorado.
