Locally Owned and Operated I (Doug Sams) started D. Brian's Deli & Catering in 1987 with the purpose of offering healthy and nutritious food in a fast and convenient format. I named the business using my first initial and middle name because I wanted it to reflect my desire for fresh quality, speedy convenience and affordability. I hope you'll agree that I've accomplished these goals I decided on a quick-serve format because it's fast and efficient while saving money and time for the customers. I also specified only the highest quality food ingredients for our menu items and set the standards so only the freshest ingredients would be used. At D. Brian's, we'll never use day-old bread for your sandwich. I also wanted the customers to be able to change or tweak their food ingredients - little extra of this and none of that - so I designed the kitchen layout so each customer watches and interacts with their food preparer as their food is being made. At D. Brian's, you don't pay first and hold onto your receipt while you wait for your food to appear from a hidden kitchen. While I certainly hope you enjoyed your in-store dining experience, we also deliver catered food throughout the Twin Cities, something we can easily accomplish through our delivery service and network of ten locations.
