Turchetti’s Delicatessen Meat Market

Best pastrami sandwich in Indy and possibly everywhere as I’ve had a lot of pastrami sandwiches over my long pastrami career.The worst thing is when they run out of it. I literally walk out with nothing because that’s the best thing on the menu, I can’t justify anything else.I think I got meat at the butcher here once too a long time ago but it’s so expensive that it can’t be justified most times, though it is tempting.Out of principal I disagree with automatically added fees not priced in to the original product like the service fees or gratuity or tip or whatever you like to call it. It’s simpler to pay employees a fair wage and include that in the cost of doing business or in the price of goods, adding it on, especially if someone is ordering takeout is just eh. But I’ll say that I do not mind it as much as I still happily pay it since the pastrami sandwich is still worth it.

Might be the best smash burger I’ve had in Indy. Incredibly juicy, delicious sauce, and *just* messy enough. I added a 2nd patty and didn’t regret it, but a single 4oz patty would be plenty all on its own.The tallow fries were next level. Perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Frying them in tallow makes them burst with flavor. No ketchup needed.One of the quickest meals I’ve ever eaten. Had to slow myself down towards the end so I could savor it.Highly recommend. And wonderful people!

This was at the Broad Ripple farmers market our house recently had a power outage for almost 24 hours and we had to throw out everything in our fridge. My wife and I were telling the employee at the booth, and he insisted that we have a pack of smash burgers on them! He recognized us from the last couple of times that we were there. We love the smash burgers, buffalo chicken dip and beef sticks! We wanted to recognize this kind act! We plan on shopping with them for our meats from now on!
