Small soup (to go) and half of a sandwich (ate at restaurant) - over $30…. UNREAL AND OUTRAGEOUS! Had to pay a tip and charged for using a credit card! Bye bye Essen Room!
Bought a lean Reuben and the corned beef was as tough as leather. Would not ever come back. For over $20? We go to fab places in NYC. This sandwich got tossed.
Went to Lenny’s Deli and got an extra lean Corned beef sandwich and theirs was delicious. Freshly cut, first cut. With Swiss cheese and on fresh awesome rye bread.
This is the place for corned beef.
This was the biggest Reuben I have ever had in this area! It was delicious. I only wish I had taken some of the pastries home but after I ate my sandwich I was too full.
