Fifteen months after Oscar’s closed, there’s a deli on Main Street.
Rye Ridge is open for business. The kosher-style deli fills a void in all of downtown.
Some of Oscar’s long-time staff are back behind the counter. Many of Oscar’s regulars are back in line.
Can you say “pastrami on rye”?
Lee lives on in our hearts and once again on Main Street.
Didn’t win but was as good as advertised. Played well but never as good as you dream you will play. Some classic moments

Good news. Great story. đ
So cool! Wholesale food prices have skyrocketed over the past decade and a business like Leeâs maybe didnât have the present overhead but either way glad thereâs a good Kosher style Deli there and I bet so does Lee! I bet that $12 sandwich is awesome!
Stopped by for lunch today and it was
wonderful to see Imus, Chris and Waukeen
– all from Oscarâs. Really miss seeing Lee sitting in the barber chair.
Just had supper there very good. The salads are huge, got lunch for tomorrow. The service was excellent and the place is beautiful.
Hard for a newcomer to compare/live up to a previous iconic business like Oscarâs, especially for any of us native or long-time Westporterâs.
Looks like Rye Ridge owners paid close attention to the localâs sentiments about Oscarâs:
– Minimal change to original floor plan/layout.
– Keeping the mural.
– An âOscarâsâ sandwich menu section.
– Hiring previous employees.
– Keeping outdoor seating (and it appears to be expanded a bit, from the pics?).
– Similar traditional meat display case
Hope it fills the void (looks good so far), and good luck to the new owners!
any place that sells foot long Twizzlers on Main St is an instant star in my book! Welcome Rye Ridge!! and thank you!!!
love, Jennie from the block
We stopped in briefly in the middle of a couple of errands this afternoon. The place looks great. We wish the new owners lots of success.
Good to have a deli open for dinner for a change. None in town since Arnie Kaye left!
