A classic, and the pastrami sandwich and cherry soda are like they should be! Sometimes, it just hits the spot!

This location has limited seating but is clearly a crowd favorite. I stopped by because I love pastrami and the reviews said so did Anthony Bordain. The pastrami sandwiches are approx. $24 but to be fair they are massive. I went for the half sandwich and half matze ball soup, which I poured into a bowl since I ordered takeout. Excellent soup, came with one large matzo ball. I particularly enjoyed the half loaf of rye bread which I proceeded to dip in the soup and the mustard packets. Not a fan of pickles but the lady in front of me ordered 6 extra ones so I am sure they're excellent. Overall, the sandwich was tasty and the meat was plentiful. It only took a few minutes waiting. I don't know that I would order their knishes or some of their other items not because they don't look good but because they pricey even for the neighborhood! $9 for a knish is outrageous. But if you're looking for a real NYC experience it's worth the wait for a table.

Sorry but not a fan compared to the other big name deli in NYC. Light on the pastrami and not much flavor on the sandwich.

A really cozy little place. The food is pretty good and the guys working here are fantastic. My only complaint is that it's a little on the expensive side, although given the location that's not really unexpected.

It doesn’t get better than this genuine NYC staple - instead of roaming tourists you’ll typically see satisfied neighborhood locals.

Pastrami was way too lean. Skip this place and just head to katz for the good stuff.
