Wow. I am an old school NYC deli kind of guy. Was skeptical of this place. Boy was I wrong. The chipotle pastrami was phenomenal and all the other food my colleagues had was awesome too. Buffalo chicken, a Reuben, etc. this type of food is pricey (not unusual for pastrami in general) but it’s really great. If you don’t mind the expense and the calories from this food, then it is totally worth a visit. Significantly beyond my expectations. Any local reputation of excellence is well deserved.

Phenomenal Pastrami Sandwich. Their sauce tasted wait to get in was a longtime, so we ordered online and it was a lot faster. Their prices were fine especially considering how delicious their sandwich tasted. Staff were upbeat and I understand why when their lunch can taste that good everyday. I’m not a pickle fan but their pickles tasted great. Overall if you live amazing sandwiches do yourself a favor order the pastrami as this is top notch quality!

Not Worth the Money. You could have a sit down dinner in a nice restaurant. These are only sandwiches but C’Mon these prices are way too much for a sandwich.

Just incredible. Have the pastrami!

I think it was better than Katz the food was great fresh not dry moist amazing sandwich got enough for two people to share. Highly recommended.

I wanted to try it due to the hype and great marketing. I got the pastrami. It was solid, if it came out warm I'd say it's good. If it costs $15 I'd say it's great. But the fact that it's a $30 sandwich that came out at room temperature and is similar to a $15-dollar sandwich from Als where the meat quality is slightly inferior but you get two servings worth of sandwich for $15. I just don't see the value proposition of Sam Lagrasses besides being a tourist attraction. I was expecting something more like at Katz's Delicatessen in NYC. Not a bad sandwich, just not worth the price or the hype.

expensive and meh.

Plan your entire vacation (or workday) around going here. Every day. Seriously. My boyfriend and I stopped here for lunch on our last day in Boston, and we had the best sandwiches of our entire lives! I had the Cuban, and he had the pastrami/corned beef combo. I’d go back to Boston just to go here again! 10/10
Incredible sandwiches. My friend and I don't even like pastrami and yet we both loved these. Didn't like the sandwiches without pastrami, so that's not the reason to come here. Pricey but filling and high quality. Very limited hours is a bummer.

This place is awesome! It was packed with regulars on a Thursday lunchtime and we ordered a sandwich at the counter and found one chair open, but had to wait for another 10 min for the adjacent chair to open up. Not a lot of seating available. Bathrooms not particularly convenient - through a door and up 1 or 2 flights (M-1, F-2) on a tight spiral staircase. The sandwiches are expensive. $28 for a Pastrami Rueben on pumpernickel. Now for the good news. It was the best Rueben or pastrami sandwich we’ve ever had! It was big enough, we split it, and a big of chips was only $1.50. In spite of the sandwich cost, there is a reason this place has been around since the 60’s, and is packed with regulars. The ordering and delivery of sandwiches is very efficient, and the food is spectacular. I’ll be back next time I’m in Boston!

I had the pastrami caprese sandwich — it was absolutely amazing!

Definitely one of the best sandwich in Boston. The diablo is my favorite pastrami sandwich I’ve ever had. Expensive, but delicious and worth it with the huge portion they give. They put in some serious effort into perfecting their sandwiches.

The BEST delivery service ever. I have placed a lot of large orders with them through their website and never had an issue until today, emailed them and gave them a call and they were quick to take my order and get it out to me ASAP. Not skipping a beat! I love ordering from them!!
