After working in the Deli business most of his life, Lou Gurewitz opened Parkway Deli in 1963 with his Sister, Rose, and her husband Mike. They called it Parkway Deli because it was close to the park (Rock Creek Park). Lou’s oldest son, Stuart who also grew up in the deli biz took over in 1974. With a lot of hard work and long hours, Stuart turned Parkway Deli into the institution that it is today. After over 30 years, Stuart retired.
Now in its third generation of operation, Stuart’s two sons, Danny and  Gary continue on with the deli tradition. Â
Rigo, Carlos, and the rest of the staff, at Parkway Deli continue to make Parkway Deli the best!
