Ogi Deli In Nevada Serves Up Authentic Basque Sandwiches From The Old Country (Only in your state-n)

2020/01/08

Basque culture is kind of a big thing in Nevada. In the 1930s, many western states including ours became host to thousands of Basques that fled their native region on the border of France and Spain during revolution. As a result, Nevada is home to an enduring Basque culture, including traditions, festivals, and of course, restaurants. Basque food is never that hard to find in the Silver State, but there’s a Basque deli that is especially worth seeking out if you’d like to try authentic and hearty cuisine from the old country. As one of the most recent additions to Basque dining in the Silver State, this unique little deli makes for an excellent pit stop.

Emerson. Authentic Basque cuisine is a true Nevada staple and you'll find many great restaurants in the Silver State where you can get it. However, if it's a delicious Basque-style sandwich you're after, then Ogi Deli is the way to go.

Located in Elko, Ogi Deli specializes in both Basque and American sandwiches, wraps, salads, and other scrumptious snacks. Opened back in 2017, the Basque deli has already become a favorite for its seamless blend of old and new-style recipes.

In the early days, Basque sheepherders would spend days or even weeks in the mountains and desert with their sheep. They relied on hearty sandwiches like these for sustenance, comprised of tasty Spanish meats such as chorizo, Solomo, and Jamon.

You'll be eating just as well as a Basque sheepherder when you visit the deli and order up one of these mouthwatering sandwiches. Served on a French roll with classic Basque toppings like peppers, cheese, and aioli, these sandwiches are not only filling but downright delicious.

The deli is open for lunch every day from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. However, on Thursday and Friday they are also open in the evening for Basque beverages and tapas (also called "pintxos"). Basque tapas are small snacks that are often shared among friends and with an authentic beverage like dry Basque cider.

Ogi Deli is obviously all about Basque authenticity, but you'll find some classic American favorites here as well. It doesn't matter whether you find yourself digging into a slow-roasted lamb grinder or a Philly cheesesteak, your taste buds will be in heaven with whatever you choose!

The deli's intimate atmosphere is perfect for Basque cuisine. After all, Basque food is all about enjoying the company of others, sharing a laugh, and indulging in good wholesome eats. There are a lot of options to choose from at Ogi Deli, so don't be afraid to branch out and try something new when you visit.

When’s the last time you indulged in authentic Basque food? This Basque deli is definitely the place to go when you’re craving some tapas, that’s for sure. Check out more dining destinations like this one with our list of 9 Restaurants That Serve The Best Basque Food In Nevada
