For nearly four decades, Deli-News Dallas has been far more than just a restaurant—we've been the cornerstone of countless celebrations, gatherings, and milestone moments across the Dallas metroplex. Since 1985, our professional catering services have brought the authentic taste and warmth of New York deli culture to over 15,000 events, from intimate family bar mitzvahs to large corporate gatherings and community celebrations.
🎉 Professional Catering Excellence Since 1985
Deli-News Dallas has established itself as the premier choice for authentic NYC deli catering in Texas. Our commitment to quality, tradition, and exceptional service has made us the trusted partner for Dallas's most important celebrations and corporate events.
The Foundation of Community Connection
What sets Deli-News Dallas catering apart is our deep understanding that food is more than sustenance—it's the centerpiece that brings people together. Our catering philosophy remains unchanged since 1985: deliver the same quality, authenticity, and attention to detail that customers experience at our 17062 Preston Road location to wherever Dallas communities gather.
Whether it's a boardroom lunch for 20 executives, a synagogue celebration for 500 families, or an intimate shiva meal, every event receives the same commitment to excellence that has made us Dallas's premier authentic deli. This consistency has built relationships spanning generations—we've catered children's bar mitzvahs, watched them grow up, and later catered their weddings and their own children's celebrations.

The Goldstein Family Legacy
"We've used Deli-News for every major family event for the past 25 years. When my son David became a bar mitzvah in 1999, I knew there was only one choice for authentic Jewish food in Dallas. The pastrami and bagels reminded our out-of-town family of the delis they grew up with in Brooklyn. Fast-forward to 2023, and we're planning David's daughter's bat mitzvah with the same team that made his celebration so special. It's not just catering—it's family tradition." — Sarah Goldstein, Long-time Dallas Family
Corporate Partnership Excellence
Texas Instruments has been one of our longest-standing corporate clients, using Deli-News catering for executive meetings and employee events for over 15 years. Their corporate events team consistently chooses us because of our reliability, quality, and ability to accommodate their diverse dietary requirements while maintaining authentic flavors.
"In the corporate world, catering can make or break an important meeting. Deli-News has never let us down. Their bagel breakfast spreads and deli lunch platters consistently impress clients and employees alike. The authenticity and quality speak for themselves." — Corporate Events Manager, Fortune 500 Company
Community Support During Difficult Times
During the challenging times of 2020-2021, Deli-News Dallas adapted our catering services to support the community in new ways. We provided contactless delivery for shiva meals, individually packaged corporate lunches for socially distanced meetings, and special pricing for healthcare workers and essential services.
The Deli-News Catering Difference
In an industry filled with generic catering companies, Deli-News Dallas stands apart through our commitment to authenticity, quality, and community connection. Here's what makes our catering services special:
1. Authentic NYC Deli Preparation
We don't compromise on authenticity. Our pastrami is cured for 72 hours using traditional methods. Our bagels are hand-rolled and boiled in malt water. Our chopped liver is made by hand, not in a food processor. These time-honored techniques require more effort, but they ensure that every catered event maintains the genuine flavors that define authentic deli cuisine.
2. Generational Expertise
With 39 years of catering experience, our team has perfected the art of bringing restaurant-quality food to off-site locations. We understand the logistics of maintaining temperature, texture, and presentation during transport and setup. This expertise ensures that your guests experience the same quality they would receive at our Preston Road location.
3. Community-Centered Service
Deli-News isn't just a catering vendor—we're community partners. Our team takes time to understand each event's unique requirements, cultural considerations, and family traditions. This personalized approach has built relationships that span generations and made us the trusted choice for Dallas's most important celebrations.
4. Transparent, Fair Pricing
Our catering pricing reflects our commitment to being a neighborhood institution, not a profit-maximizing corporate entity. We offer competitive rates without hidden fees, volume discounts for large events, and flexible payment options. Our goal is to make authentic deli catering accessible to the entire Dallas community.
