Dominion Deli, Yorktowne Plaza in Merrifield - Outdoor Seating, Open 6 AM Monday-Friday - Closed

[DonRocks]

In the same shopping center as Elephant Jumps, Dominion Deli has proven to be an extremely useful breakfast quick-stop for 6 AM treks out to Woodson High School. Phone in your order, and it will be ready when you get there (and if you want slightly better coffee, Starbucks is right there also). For $3.50, the Huevos Rancheros (which I got last week) is large, too centered on the pita, and in desperate need of tabasco; I prefer the Kielbasa Eggs on a kaiser roll for $5.25, and so will you.

There is a surprisingly large outdoor seating area here - I've never had lunch or dinner, but have had breakfast (and have bought Matt breakfast) numerous times. Think: short-order, flat-top grill cooking, and that's about what it is. It serves its purpose for us - it's also my independently owned rebellion against McDonald's, just a block further down Gallows road. Yes, it costs more, but at the end of the day ... does it?

Cheers,

Rocks

Dominion Deli has closed.  Windows have been papered over and there is a goodbye message on Facebook.  Unfortunate:  it was an independent deli with real food in a convenient strip.  Good breakfasts and old-fashioned sandwiches.  It will be missed.

This is very sad to me. Whenever Matt stayed over at my house, and I drove him to school the next morning, we would *always* go to Dominion Deli, with him calling in an order for a Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Sandwich on Whole Wheat Toast. 

It doesn't sound like much, but it is to me.

Well, for whatever it's worth, here's the most-recent copy of their menu that I could find:

Sad to hear another deli closes shop. About ten years ago frequented there fairly often for their portobello mushroom sandwiches which were always tasty.
