Gershon’s is a little slice of heaven on Earth…old school goodness oozes through this joint with some of the tastiest pastrami ever. And the French dip too is a sleeper hit. Highly recommend. I always aim to grab a meal here when going through Schenectady. Keep up the great food!

We stopped in for lunch while in the area. There are several tables inside and people come in and sit with others due to the way the tables are arranged (which is fine).
We both had a half chicken cutlet sandwich cordon bleu. The sandwich was very large—needing to cut with a fork and knife. The chicken cutlet seemed very overdone; I know they have them premade ready for heating, but this was rubbery. The flavor was also just OK. I was really wanting a warm sandwich and the chicken cutlet seemed to be the only options that were warm. The deli sandwiches that arrived at other tables looked very substantial. I would consider returning to try something else, but wouldn’t get the chicken cutlet sandwich again.

Real find true ny style deli. No fake turkey here. Real pastrami, corned beef and brisket. Unfortunately limited hour, no dinner available. But great if you can do lunch or breakfast.
Sooo delicious and the best staff ever. When bees got on my food while I was eating outside they came and scared the bees away and moved my food inside so I could eat comfortably. A classic deli location with plenty of options.

Did take out. Food is good. Large sandwiches. Side salads are great. Veggie Slaw rules.

I was confused about this place after having asked around about a Jewish deli and kosher places. This place is definitely not kosher, at all. Anyways, to eat-in you have to just go to the seating area and a waitress will take your order, that is not clear but ok, I know now. The menu board is confusing and not conducive to first timers at the counter ordering to-go. Staff is chaotic but well-intentioned and friendly. Could use some kind of protocol or training on efficiency.
Food was ok, not great, not a fan of pickles that might as well be cucumbers (and are tiny). Ratio of meat to mayo to bread way off. I get wanting to be generous, especially given how expensive they are, but it doesn't taste right.

The reuben sandwich is the best. And don't forget the pickles 😋 to die for. Our waitress was very friendly. (Just wish I could remember her name)

Gershon's closes at three o'clock and I got there about 10 of. The staff were charming and so helpful. Their food was also excellent!
