In 2018, the Portland Mercury described Edelweiss as a "wünder-land of weird and delicious-looking things, from candies with unpronounceable names to mayonnaise that comes out of a toothpaste tube" with a "wraparound deli with all kinds of meats stacked high".[3]

History

Guy Fieri visited Edelweiss for an episode of the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.[4]

Reception

In 2015, Willamette Week's Walker MacMurdo included Edelweiss in his overview of "The Five Best Hams Made in Portland".[5] The newspaper's AP Kryza wrote in 2016, "At this German deli and butcher shop filled with wondrous chocolate, better beer and even better meat, all of second-generation deli masters Tom and Tony Baier's house-cured meats are available in sandwiches so voluminous that they overwhelm their rye bread holders."[6] In 2018, Willamette Week's Pete Cottell included Edelweiss' "obscure" German candy in his 2018 list of "eight must-have munchies for when you're stoned and starving".[1] In 2019, the newspaper said, "Whether you're in need of a lunchtime bratwurst, dinnertime pork chop, or sausages for later, Edelweiss will not disappoint."[7]
