Deli chefs, who slice copious quantities of meat every day, get their training by carving sculptures and using a circular saw to make underwater homes for abandoned goldfish. Let these blade-wielding pros put their training to use with today's Groupon: for $8, you get $16 worth of deli delights and drinks at Roscoe's Famous Deli in Chino Hills.

Roscoe's menu has more than delicious sandwiches, soups, and salads; it's also stocked with hearty home-style dinners (served after 5 p.m.) and "Fried Junk!!!" ($13.95). A juicy 18-ounce rib-eye steak ($28.95) is good for exercising incisors or muffling trumpets, and a full rack of St. Louis–style pork ribs ($24.95) occupies fingers and challenges T-shirts' stain capacities. Deli classics include a BLT ($8.95), roast-beef sandwich ($10.95), and Reuben ($9.95); specialty sandwiches include "Nick's New Yorker" (rye bread heaped with pastrami, mustard, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, and swiss cheese; $10.95) and "The Martini" (grilled parmesan bread bearing the burden of chicken breast, pesto mayo, slices of tomato, mozzarella cheese, lettuce, and balsamic glaze; $11.95).

At Roscoe's, live music is frequent—it isn't ordinary acts such as a surgeon playing the defibrillator, but full-fledged, notable bands such as Solacz. Because there are plenty of flat-screen TVs, sports-watching is also common; check the event calendar for details. No matter when you head to the eatery, its atmosphere is sure to entertain you. There are neon lights woven into the exposed-beam ceiling, a motorcycle dangling above diners' heads, old-fashioned signs hung everywhere, and a palpable absence of sweaty ghosts.

Dine-in only.
