Stephen’s Restaurant & New York Style Deli (Hialeah)
***** Stephen’s Restaurant & New York Style Deli. 1000 East 16th Street, Hialeah, Florida 33010, (305) 877-8863.
Let me make this one short and simple…
Stephen’s with its formica tables–and formica counter seating has been around for something like 60 years. Sort of like entering a timewarp…NYC diner/NYC deli circa 1950′s-60′s.
Stephen’s which is open Monday-Friday 7am-3:30pm has the full gamut of breakfast dishes, sandwiches, burgers, deli meats-plates, “blue plate specials” like meatloaf–but only on Tuesdays.
I recently did lunch “trying” pastrami on rye, corned beef on rye, brisket with potato pancakes…and I gotta tell you, if I squint my eyes, I’m at… Sam’s Candy Store & Deli, Cortelyou Road & East 8th Street, Brooklyn, New York— 1957. I absolutely loved the food and “the place.”
I don’t know about you, but joints like Stephen’s hold a special place in old Jeff’s heart (now I’m going all sentimental on you)…




I used to eat at Stephens every day back when I was in the shmata biz and had factories around the corner. Quality has gone down in recent years but still a great place.
Hi, this is Scott, We are back and the quality is back like it used to be. Please pay us a visit again. We are here to stay…Thank you…
This is Scott, Unfortunatly, I am not there any more.
I cannot speak for the new owner.
