My wife was raised in Brooklyn on Avenue K near Ocean Avenue and definitely knows good deli of which Benji's pastrami was a prime example. My son and I also thought it was excellent though we can't claim the same degree of deli experience. The sandwiches were very generous and the potato salad and cole slaw very good. We're looking forward to returning on our next family visit from Massachusetts.

This place is super cute. And super tiny. And super Avenue K Bar. And super cash only.It's got that in your neighborhood park secret location family bartenders type of feel to it. Rad.

My friend invited me over for a pastrami sandwich after I told him that Sunnymead Burgers was FSBO. Well, after a long drive to Tustin from Surprise, we met and drove on over to Benjies. The menu was impressive, but sticking to my desire, I ordered the pastrami sandwich. It came piled high, moist and with a side of cole slaw.At $15.95 a little hit but delicious! Now on my list.
