Gertie is a fantastic new delicatessen and a great addition to the neighborhood. The food and beverage are considered the best in the city. The menu features delicious items like an Egg and Cheese, a Turkey Club sandwich, and matzo ball soup, which some call the best they've ever eaten. The house smoked salmon on a house made bagel is perfection, and the bagels and sandwiches are consistently great. Other highlights include the chicken schnitzel sandwich on challah toast, pastrami on rye, babka, corn muffins, and some of the best latkes.
The space is beautiful, featuring a familiar colorful mural with bright new touches and a very pretty back patio for outdoor eating. The staff is welcoming, kind, and caffeinated, often handing out little goodies to those waiting. The line out the door is worth the wait, as the experience is rooted in heart, heritage, and hospitality. It is a place that delivers comfort and craftsmanship, feeling both nostalgic and new. Customers highly recommend Gertie and look forward to making it a regular part of their rotation.
