Such a great lunch at this local institution with a storied history dating back to the 1960’s. I went with their lunch combo, which came with a nice, warming Moroccan soup that really hit the spot. The brisket was super tender and outstanding, especially with that flavorful jus. Exactly what you want from a place like this. I’ll definitely be back next time to try the pastrami.

Excellent sandwiches, totally worth the walk till there. We've tried the brisket and corned beef and they were so tasty. The place is pretty small but they have some tables available, prices are fine and I totally recommend it.

Everything was good right to the crunchy pickles. 100% Halal is a plus, affordable and a cozy atmosphere.

Was expecting more….

We visited close to closing time, and unfortunately some menu items were already unavailable.
The pastrami was decent, but the brisket was very dry and almost gray in color, which was disappointing.
Also, paying about $105 for two sandwiches with sides (fries and pickles) felt quite expensive for the overall experience.
Additionally, the ventilation could be improved, as there was a noticeable smell inside.
That’s why we were expecting more.

Had the lunch combo of pastrami on rye, knish, and Moroccan Harira.

Soup was better than I expected (took a few spoonfuls before realizing I forgot the picture)…knish was flavorful but a bit difficult to eat since it was cut in half horizontally and only had a fork to attempt to cut it into bite size pieces. Sandwich was good, with a good portion of pastrami.

Bathroom was out of order so couldn’t review that. They can seat a good amount of customers, with booth style seating, and the location looked clean. Customer service was great, with a staff member bringing the food over to the table (just didn’t expect that).

Tried the brisket philly. Very flavorful, the nacho cheese was a surprise. Typically get their pastrami. Highly recommend for halal pastrami/brisket/corn beef.

It’s a scam to order to order whole fresh barbecue brisket as posted in first pic and then get this dry brown deli meat leftover sandwich. Specially when you’re on Keto diet too

This is hands down the best brisket we have tried in Brooklyn! We had a fantastic experience and will definitely be coming back. One of the best parts was that there were no lines and no crowds, making for a very relaxed meal.
The staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Also, a special shoutout to the gravy they serve on the side—it is absolutely delicious and brings the whole meal together. If you're looking for top-tier brisket without the typical NYC wait times, this is the spot!

Absolutely some of the best Pastrami and Corn beef sandwiches in the city. I've been eating them since I was little. No drop off. Excellent sandwiches.

I made the mistake of not reading the reviews. I had the brisket Philly and fries, it's just ok. Not seasoned at ALL!! I will go back for the pastrami and corn beef.. I want to be amazed like all the other people.

Meat quality, taste and texture is grade A! Not many halal spots serve these old school deli sandwiches. I would ask for less mustard if you’re eating with pickles so it’s not too over-bearing :)
