Visit websiteAbout Dante's Deli
Tucked off Jetty Road, Dante’s Deli builds hefty, golden toasties pressed between thick slabs of buttery sourdough. Adelaide sandwich devotees head down the laneway for serious handhelds—whether that is the thinly sliced, peppered pastrami spiked with hot honey and crunchy pickles or an unctuous tuna melt. Seating is sparse, limited to a pocket-sized courtyard and porch benches, but the beach is only a two-minute stroll away. Paper-wrapped parcels hold their heat well on the short walk down toward the sand, complete with a cup of cold brew or fresh-squeezed orange juice.
- Pastrami and hot honey toastie: Piled high on toasted sourdough with salty cured beef, crunchy pickles, and hot honey.
- Beachside laneway takeout: A tucked-away laneway spot with porch benches just two minutes from the Glenelg shoreline.

Why Dante's Deli Stands Out
Why Glenelg locals and visitors choose Dante's Deli for their toastie fix
Decadent, Generously Filled Deli Melts
Thickly layered meats, house pickles, and melting cheeses are served between golden slices of toasted sourdough.
There Pastrami Toastie with hot honey was out of this World.
Kieran Ahern Signature Heat and Flavor Infusions
Savory toasted melts like the pastrami and sopressa pair robust fillings with a spicy, sweet drizzle of chili honey.
Fantastic filling sandwiches, highly recommend the sopressa (and add chilli honey!!).
Caitlyn G Portable Beachfront Takeaway
Located just moments from Glenelg Beach, the hearty sandwiches stay piping hot for a scenic seaside lunch.
we walked to the beach and enjoyed the food( it was still hot when we settled down and ate it!)
Kuo Simona Hidden Laneway Destination
Tucked away off the main Jetty Road strip, the deli provides a peaceful retreat just steps from the bustle.
This is a real lil Jem tucked away in the side streets of Jetty Rd Glenelg SA.
Charlie Wallace Charming Courtyard Atmosphere
A cozy courtyard and porch setup creates a charming, sunny nook for catching a quick morning bite.
The little courtyard was super cute to sit in.
tania drummond High-Energy, Welcoming Hospitality
An upbeat team and vibrant music establish a welcoming, high-energy environment from the moment you arrive.
This isn’t just the best Sando in SA, it’s an experience, the team dancing and chilling, the playlist ripping with 90’s tunes, smiles and 5 star service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I order ahead or expect a wait?
Pre-ordering online is recommended as popular items can sell out and fresh sandwiches are made to order, often with a 15- to 25-minute wait during peak periods. Tables cannot be reserved.
Is there seating available at the deli?
Seating is very limited, with only a few spots available in the front porch and small courtyard area. However, dine-in and outdoor seating are available, or you can take your sandwich on the short walk to Glenelg beach.
How generous are the sandwich portions?
Sandwiches are massive and generously filled on toasted sourdough, making them hearty enough to split between two people or save half for later.
