    I have to say that the customer service was extremely unimpressive, and food questionable.. Ive gone to the Deli a few times now over the past year usually for a germen sausages or cheese for the family, and always noticed that they serve lunches. So today I thought Id give it a try. When I arrived the menus were at the counter. No big deal its a deli, I wouldnt expect that theyd have waitresses. But the moment I got to the counter a younger women immediately asked what I wanted. I explained that Ive never been here for lunch and needed a moment to look over their menu. I stepped to the side to look over the menu and upon deciding I returned to the counter. The young woman was assisting another customer with a deli purchase, and instead of finishing up with the other customer (since he was in front of me and ready to pay), she thought it was appropriate to immediately take my order and bypassed the other guy all together. It was very weird. After she took my order she ran to the back to give to the owner/cook, returned, finished the transaction with the other customer, and then returned to me. I placed an order for a Ruben sandwich, side of warm potato salad, and red cabbage. I then noticed a see-through fridge full of desserts. Since I was returning back to work I thought it would be fun to bring back an assortment of things for us to try. So I also purchased 3 coconut cookie bars, cherry baklava, normal baklava, apple strudel, and a black forest cake slice. After I was given my order to go I left with a smile on face, excited to try all the wonderful food with my co-workers. Boy were we about to be disappointed. When I got to work which was 5 min away, I opened up the container for my lunch. The red cabbage was alright, I tasted like it was from a jar and not made fresh. The potato salad was good and had an appropriate amount of vinegar, but the Ruben was sadly just ok. Nothing special. Moving on I opened up the various assortments of desserts and eagerly cut them into small pieces for 19 people to try in my department. Yes 19 people. The people who got to try the Black forest cake, and the coconut cookie bars were the lucky ones. The normal baklava, cherry baklava, and apple strudel were all freezer burnt. Gross! And not a little bit freezer burnt, a lot! A co-workers even said, it tastes chemically or something, kinda like Pine-Sol. How embarrassing. I got my entire department to try their food and over half of the groups bites were freezer burnt. I can assure you thats 19 prospective customers gone.This is where it moves from embarrassing to outright rude. I called the Alpine Deli as a curtesy to let them know that 3 of their desserts were freezer burnt and went bad. It was the young women who picked up the phone and upon informing her of the problem with the desserts she put me on hold to give to her manager (the cook/owner Im assuming). When she answered I explained that I was in the deli about an hour ago and bought all those desserts. She responded with a Yea. I then proceeded to tell her about the baklavas and strudel that I purchased, and that they were freezer burnt. She became immediately defensive and said No, they are not freezer burnt. They havent been in there a long time (even-though she couldnt name a date), maybe the fridge is just up to high or something. I said all that I know is the food I purchased went bad, and I wanted to call as a curtesy so other people dont accidently purchase it. She said, No they are fine. Ok, bye Hahahahaha, I couldnt believe it. No apology, no nothing. She didnt even offer to refund the three deserts that went bad. Oh wait, she said they were fine. LOL. I will no longer be going to the Deli even to pick up their meats and cheeses, and will not be recommending people to try them. If they dont know how old their ready to serve items are, dont know common curtesy, why should I trust their other products?

    Great things continue. I was thrilled that the Alpine didn’t close when its owners retired. The new owners are keeping up the tradition of fresh, delicious deli sandwiches (those pickles! Oh my gosh!) and salads, plus a well stocked specialty food selection. It’s a wonderful place to fill up the basket for a gourmet picnic or dinner on the patio. I haven’t tried the soups yet, but they smelled heavenly. It’s fabulous to see Spokane’s traditional favorites continuing for the enjoyment of long-time fans and new converts. Stop and give it a try!

    The food was AMAZING! Everything is homemade in restaurant. It is a quaint shop with a comfortable appeal. The service was great, along with the prices. I could belive we spent under $10.00 for a 2 person lunch. We had to try the deserts which were absolutely delicious. Highly recommended! A must try for excellent German cuisine!

    The best!. Get the wurstteller. The very best rolls with an assortment of cheeses and cold cuts. I also get the red cabbage. It is just excellent food.20 Aug, 2010Excellent. We have been going to Alpine for years. The red cabbage is to die for and we usually get the wursteller– a plate with bread, cheese and cold cuts for do it yourself sandwiches. The staff is german and when my kids were taking german in high school they were very patient with their attempts to speak german. Check out the grocery section, especially at christmas. Awesome finds.

    Feels like home. Love this place. I don’t live in Spokane anymore, but went back for a visit and had to stop in. The sausages are fantastic, the cheeses even better. Just an all around great place.

    German Food/Deli -Yum!. This place is fantastic. Great german deli meats. Liverwurst,Teawurst, bloodwurst, westphalian smoked ham, hoghead cheeses. And all kinds of sausages. They have a wonderful selection of german grocery foods. This place brought back memories of when I traveled to Germany.
