This place, while maybe appearing like an overpriced tourist trap, is one of the best Jewish diners I’ve been to. I split both the matzo ball soup and pastrami sandwich with my mother. The presentation of the soup was a nice touch, but what I really loved was the food itself. The broth was a bit light but very enjoyable, the carrots were perfectly steamed to a balance of crisp and mush, and the matzo ball was buttery and soaked up the flavor of the soup very well. The pastrami sandwich came with a generous portion of pastrami, which was juicy and flavorful. The rye bread was nice and the challah bread the matzo ball soup came with was perfectly fluffy and just a little sweet. Aside from the amazing food, the service and atmosphere of this place is also incredible. I only wish the prices were lower so I could come more often!
Delicious food even though the bread was dry. We would definitely be back to give them another try, and I would recommend asking for the bread to be toasted. There are plenty more options to choose from, and they looked pretty good. We got the pastrami sandwich and a tuna and coleslaw sandwich. The tuna and coleslaw were much better and tasted delicious. The pastrami was great, but the sandwich was ok, nothing more. Overall, I would recommend trying it out and asking for the bread to be different from white or toasted.
The real deal for Jewish Deli! Historic restaurant with some of the best comfort food in NYC! The pastrami was lean and delicious . The noddle pudding was perfect. The kasha was ok, not the flavor I remember probably due a change in ingredients. Overall this is a place every visitor to NYC should try at least once for the old school experience. You might just fall in love with the food, the old style building, and the very personable staff!
