This mouthwatering creation is believed to have originated in the United States, with its roots in the traditional Reuben sandwich, which was first served in the early 20th century. The Turkey Reuben has since become a popular menu item in many American diners and delis, known for its savory flavors and satisfying combination of ingredients. Chefs and restaurants across the country have put their own unique spin on this beloved sandwich, making it a staple in the culinary landscape. For the best Turkey Reuben experience, head to iconic delis in New York City or Chicago, where you'll find expertly crafted versions of this delectable dish.
