About
Bernstein's Deli has served the River Heights community for over 32 years. We have a diverse mix of classic deli fare, Jewish specialties and diner food. Most of what is served in the restaurant is available to take home from the deli. The majority of the food is made from scratch and with a healthy dose of love. We offer 6 types of burger patties made from scratch (beef, turkey, bison, bison reuben, black bean wild rice and chickpea almond), mix our pancake batter in small batches, pound, coat and fry our own chicken schnitzel and fingers and so much more. Old World offerings like chopped liver, gefilte fish, potato latkes, beef brisket, matzo ball soup (along with over 20 other types of soup), the list goes on and on. We also import grocery items from South Africa and sell our famous biltong out of our back freezer (ask for it at the deli counter). Lots of choices for those that are vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, picky, fussy or just plain hard to please, our goal is to please them all! Open almost every day, we currently only close on Victoria Day, Christmas Day, Remembrance Day and Canada Day. We offer office catering, meals of condolence, custom cooking solutions, holiday meal catering and anything else you may need.

The deli food was fresh and excellent. The service was very good. Under Cyrus the covid 19 virus indoor dining terms in Manitoba the total experience was superbly positive. The expectations of myself and my b 2 dining companions were more than met The soup is particularly good and near home-made. Possibly the best deli in Winnipeg at this time. The included store to buy take home deli items is fabulous, not cheap, but worth it.

For excellent catering, Bernstein's offers a delicious selection of dishes from brisket, to beef meatballs like your grandmother used to make, roasted vegetables, chicken soup and matzoh balls, and more. Customer service is very friendly, helpful and efficient. I would highly recommend them.

Bernstein's is a great neighbourhood favourite as demonstrated by the number of regulars who eat there (when COVID isn't taking its bite out of the restaurant biz). Food is excellent. Service is pleasant. There are many items to take home from the extensive deli counter, and freezer stocked with homemade soups. The bakery shelves stock delicacies from local bakeries - it's locals supporting locals. Make sure you find your way to Bernstein's - you won't be disappointed!

Ordered food for take out for holiday meal to be distributed among family members ( 3 families). Spent over $150. Asked for help carrying to car & owner said was I would have to pay delivery charge of $7 & wait 10 minutes because they were busy. A gentleman waiting behind me helped me for free. Would have left the order if I hadn't prepaid. Got it home and was missing 6 knishes. Called the deli & owner basically called me a liar. Said all boxes are double checked for accuracy. Hope not replacing 6 knishes & wanting $7 to deluver to my car parked almost outside their door was worth losing my business & that if my family & friends that were horrified bu rudeness & arrogance of owner. He has asked people to provide reviews. Here it is. As requested.

Hi Tina, There is no way that you had this experience. It does not reflect any reality of our business. We offer free curbside contactless delivery to anyone with any order size. We would never request a dime to carry out groceries and the longest you would have to wait for parcel carry out is about 20 seconds while someone grabs a coat on a cold day. Also, we do make mistakes and more often than I would like to admit we have given refunds after the fact when something was missed. There is no way this happened at Bernstein's Deli in Winnipeg.

My husband and I now like in Texas although I grew up in Winnipeg. Bernstein's Deli has been helping us fill my elderly parents freezer with portion sized freezer packed delicious food for over a decade. We also make sure to send a fantastic holiday spread whenever the occasion arrises especially now that we are not able to visit easily. We will always be grateful for Bernstein's care and service, including masked contact free delivery.

Bernsteins is the place to go for the BEST deli sandwich in town! There rye bread is sliced to your preferred thickness, the generous amounts of meat, and all the fixings you can imagine! - How much better does that get? Not only is this food delicious, the customer service you will receive is outstanding! I am a regular in this restaurant both personally and through work for our catering needs and can honestly say that I have yet to be disappointed with any order. So aside from the delicious taste and great customer service, I am always impressed with the packaging and presentation of the food. If you haven't already tried it, you need to eat the "Big Quinoa Salad" - Its loaded with spinach, romane, chickpeas, slivered carrots, beets and drizzled with a maple mustard vinaigrette! - This is one of my favs!

We have ordered delivery from Bernstein's Deli numerous times for in house office training. Ordering was very easy, the food was delivered at the correct time and most importantly the food was delicious. Winnipeg's best deli food!

Have always been a fan of Bernstein ‘s Deli and during the last year of restrictions I have used the delivery service on numerous occasions for family dinners. The food has been consistently delicious , especially the home made items like the chicken soup and matzah balls. Aaron has been very responsive to last minute additions and changes to orders. And , if you are lucky, you may get a T-shirt included with a major order (see photo). Why cook if you can have Bernstein’s do it for you?

How can you not love the food so lovingly prepared and the great staff who serve it. The resto has been closed since Covid restrictions have tightened it up so I will speak to the Deli itself, their take out, delivery and kind customer attention. This is a family run business who pride themselves on their home cooked items and packaged selections. They have a huge selection of fresh and frozen soups, cooked and frozen meal choices and just what you expect from a Deli in fresh take out. They pride themselves on their holiday preparations, lots of choices of breads, buns and Jewish style bakery products. Aaron and his staff team have learned the secrets of Marla's recipes! Aaron runs a tight ship and has good staff who work hard to make this family run business a success with their kind attention and delicious food preparation.

Bernstein’s does deli right. The cabbage borscht and potato latkes are my personal favourite when ordering for myself but the catering Bernstein’s provided for Passover was also great - amazing kugel and gefilte fish. They are also always very easy to contact and are responsive. Even if it’s just to look in their pantry or frozen section, I always look forward to a trip to Bernstein’s.

Bernstein's Deli has been a staple in the neighborhood for most of my life. I've been going there for 25+ years now and will certainly be going for the next 25 and hopefully more. What used to be the perfect spot for a hangover breakfast has now turned into the place that I get my weekly lunch meats from. Where I used to order a sandwich to go, now I ask them to cater my family and work events. This place is so much more than a deli, it's offerings are seemingly endless. This place also continues to evolve as the area around it does and I look forward to my visits to see what interesting food stuffs they have brought in to try. If you haven't been, you really need to check it out. If you have been, you know you probably want to stop by again soon.

We have been eating at Bernstein's for years! Great breakfast/brunch offerings and homestyle dinners too. We pick up fresh Challah bread, bagels, cold cuts, and matzaball soup to take home. We order our Gefilte Fish for our entire family for Passover and the High Holidays. Very homey and welcoming place.

Everything is here, everything is delicious! My Passover this year was so easy. All it took was one email to Aaron and my dinner was organized. All I had to do was set the table and enjoy. My harshest critics ( vegetarian and meat eaters) were happy and my only comment is I should do it more often! This year the kugel was an extra special hit and my family highly recommends it! A great place to stop in anytime

Best corned beef and gefilte fish in town. The salads, herring varieties and soups are delicious. If you like deli food you'll love Aaron, his MomMarla and the caring staff.

In the rotation. First time we ordered - 3 dishes for the vegan week and one sandwich. We enjoyed it and will definitely have them again. The fried spicy pickles were good. Of course the latkes. Just remember to order early due to closing time witnessing covid.
