Visited this place with boyfriend. Disgusting. Stay away. Smelled and tasted terrible.

The food, atmosphere, and staff are great. I grew up in a small town and Auntie Em’s brings back those good home feelings. The meats and cheeses are cut there along with novelty foods items you don’t find at your everyday grocery store. Oh, and the desserts… delicious!

In my previous review, I said I’d update to five stars if they got whole grain bread as an option. Well they’ve got it now. Their wheat bread is whole grain. So five stars it is.

Delicious! Had the Reuben as suggested, potato salad, and carrot cake. All were fantastic! Isn’t your chain ‘sandwich meal package’, which is good for me. Thick bread with just the right amount of everything on it. Should have tried this place sooner, very unassuming store front. A great place to stop by on your way out to the lake! I will try the grilled cheese and tomato soup next time!

A simply phenomenal deli. High quality meats and cheese, incredibly kind staff, and a wide selection are what earns this place 5 stars in my opinion. Last time I was here I counted 16 different options for meat, 10 different cheese offerings, 9 different dressings, 8 different veggies, &6 different bread options for your sandwich. From these you may make any combination of sandwich you may desire. Be sure to try the Lebanon Bologna, very very tasty. If you are not feeling adventurous enough to make your own creation you may also order 9 different classic sandwiches. As mentioned by others the Rueben is indeed very good but my favorite is the toasted On certain occasions they have excellent additional food offerings as well. Saturday mornings be sure to stop in for the biscuits and gravy – you will not be disappointed. Also on select Friday’s they also offer smoked salmon which is fantastic. I buy some, take it home, mix with cream cheese and pickled jalapeños and put on crackers. Very tasty to be certain! The owners are such great people who remember me every time I walk in the door and always are curious to catch up and see how I have been. Highly highly recommend.

Hands down the best Reuben sandwich I have had… ever! After reading reviews about Auntie Em’s, my husband and I decided to check this place out today. Delicious!!! Worth a visit. Worth several visits. Just do it already!

Delicious Reuben! I visited Omaha last month and had a great original Reuben. This trip to Kansas had me searching for something similar and this was it. Great Amish cheese and lots of flavorful sauerkraut. Very nice family operation that care about quality.

Heard the Rueben sandwich was good, had to stop by and see for ourselves! Wow, they weren’t kidding! Can’t find this little gem in California but if in the Kansas area, stop on by!!! You won’t be disappointed!

I really love this place! The Ruben is the best in town and it’s hard for me to order anything else! However you really can’t go wrong with the Rachel on Rye or Grilled Ham & Cheese on Wheatberry either!

I’ve had a number of different sandwiches here over the years and they’re always fresh and delicious, and you get the added bonus of a warm smile and lots of good energy from the lovely family that owns the shop. The Reuben sandwich here should be something everyone in town tries at least once, it’s that good. Thick slices of soft, fresh marbled rye, a generous helping of amazingly flavorful and juicy corned beef, an equal portion of tart, crunchy sauerkraut(not the stinky over-fermented kind from a jar, this tastes homemade and more like a deliciously tart and perfectly textured slaw), a gentle slather of dressing, and a thick slice of unbelievably good cheese melting the whole thing together. This is probably Lawrence’s best sandwich.

Nice ‘Mom and Pop’ place. Staff very friendly. Sandwiches are above average in quality though a little high in price. Chips extra. Overall much better option than chain sandwich shops.

All right, I feel the need to update my review after several trips here. I am going to knock it down a star, but that still means I enjoy it. The sandwich you choose really makes a difference here. The reuben is still, in my mind, very excellent. I should have just stuck to that — it’s probably 4 – 5 stars. I have also had the club sandwich which is 2 – 3 stars. For $ 7(with tax), you don’t get much in the terms of meat or cheese. It’s tasty, but not excellent. So it just doesn’t seem to have the greatness that its price should warrant. I will keep going here from time to time as money allows, but will need to learn exactly what sandwiches to stick to. Some are great, some are just«meh». The service is still friendly, and the store is clean and nice. The little shop in the back has some neat stuff, but I still have not bought anything to explore how much I like it. One of these days…

Pleasant, family-owned deli. Food was great all around for a party of 3. A better experience than a chain. One of those you’ll be glad you did experiences.

I’ve only been here once, but my meal of a reuben and chicken-noodle soup was worth a good review. I’m pretty much repeating what other people said– everything was fresh, homemade, and high quality. The bread was really soft. At first I was a little skeptical because the reuben wasn’t dripping with sauce and sauerkraut and melted cheese, but it had so much more flavor than some I’ve had in the past that look promisingly juicy and delicious but turned out to be all looks and cheap ingredients. The soup was good too. It had the big fat homemade noodles floating around in fresh, flavorful broth. They also have a store towards the back of the restaurant where they had some more homemade foods available for purchase, books, and probably some other handmade Amish thangs. I’d really like to go back soon. Mostly because I read that they have really good chocolate milk.

We went there today and all the good reviews are true. Excellent sandwiches, very friendly. Great place to sit and have a sandwich. Will definitely go back very soon. Update: went back a second time. Probably won’t be going back for awhile. Husband and I ordered reubens and they were full of fat. Not big on a fat sandwich.

I had lunch today. What a cute down home little deli. I had the turkey club sandwich and tomato soup. The sandwich was good. The bacon was plentiful and the wheatberry bread was moist and delicious. The tomato soup had some basil and chunks of tomato in it. Really tasty. My friend had the chicken noodle soup which had great thickness. I will definitely be back!

Love this place!!! The owners are the nicest people you will meet and they strive to give the best service. Get there early before they run out of their fresh milk in real glass bottles. The chocolate milk is too die for! The honey off the bone ham is the best you will ever eat! Great food and service!!!

I LOVE this place. They have really terrific sandwiches(house specialities, or build your own); absolutely the best meat I’ve tasted in a long time. The owner told me they get their products from an Amish farm in Iowa, that she had toured the farm personally before deciding on them as her supplier. The shop is on the small side(fits about ten customers comfortably), very clean(take note, Yello Sub), cozy, the service is friendly and fast. It is a family owned business, and they are knowledgeable and professional. They stock other Amish products, from floral lotion to jams(do yourself a favor and buy one of the jams, they are so. good.) to salsa and pickles and gourmet popcorn. Everything is reasonably priced, and they even sell meat and cheese by by the ounce or pound, for about the same price as Hyvee(and unlike Hyvee, they don’t pre-slice the meat and cheese, keeping it fresh as possible). I’ve had the turkey sandwich, the reuben, and some handmade potato salad during three different visits, and it was all remarkably good food. The reuben threw me off at first, because it wasn’t drippy and overstuffed, but that didn’t matter after I tasted the best pastrami outside of Nyc. I wish it came with a bit more sauerkraut and dressing, but the meat is such a showstopper that it worked fine without it. I’ve been looking for a good deli for a year now; you can’t imagine how happy I am to find such a great place, right in Lawrence.

A very very good little small family owned sandwich shop. The sandwiches are inexpensive, super duper delicious, and the owner is always there and very friendly. I recommend you go there and try it!
