Romanian pastrami, smothered pancakes: Maxie's offers up Jewish deli food in Stoughton

STOUGHTON — Maxie's Deli, home of homemade knishes, matzo balls and Romanian pastrami, is celebrating its 30th year of serving the community of Stoughton and beyond.

"We've been in a business as a Jewish deli for years, and we wanted a place where people could have specialized meats, traditional corned beef hash and Romanian pastrami," Steve Robbins, co-owner of Maxie's Deli, said.

"At Maxie's, 90% of our food is made from scratch, people place orders over the counter, and they enjoy the amazing customer service we pride ourselves on," Robbins said.

The local deli has a large selection of menu items from breakfast and lunch to a small mid-day pick-me-up to hold you over until dinner.

"We have several items customers love, but some of our top sellers are the Reubens and the homemade corned beef hash. We have generous portions, and customers are blown away by the food," Robbins said.
