Locks Deli at the corner of 28th & Market closed last Thursday and Sharif’s has already opened in its place.

Sharif’s is the new store owned by Steven Saleh, who also owns Saleh’s at the corner of 24th & 80th. Saleh says he has changes planned for the space including a huge wine selection, beer from around the world, gourmet cheese, espresso and a full deli that will serve their signature Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. “Let our customers know that the Philly is back!” he says. Most of the items they carry are by request, so if you don’t see something you like, let’em know. He says he’ll stock an item for awhile and if it’s popular then he’ll re-order it.
