I've only ever tried the Hot Pastrami sandwich from here. The place is very CLEAN which is…read moredefinitely a plus and has a nice layout and ambiance to it. There even a Mrs. Pac-Man game that you can play for free while you wait for your food. I think it's a great deli addition to this neighborhood. As for the food, it was okay. Nothing too special in my opinion. I paid $18.60 for a hot pastrami which is on par for these kinds of sandwiches but for the size it definitely could have been bigger. I still would recommend if you really want a hot pastrami and you don't want to go downtown or across town. And I would go back if I was in the area. I'm currently on the search for the BEST pastrami sandwich in Jersey and sadly this just isn't it. But good for the area that it is serving.

They have to put a lot of thought and love into everything that they put out. Home of the best Sloppy Joes!! From sandwiches to salad to iced tea and desserts I highly recommend this place. I had to take the time to leave a review this time because I felt it was very overdue. The gobbler sandwich is yummy, The Godfadda, The Gossip Girl, I also have had an egg salad with layer of tuna salad Sloppy Joe-that is amazing! The Cobb salad is also a fave. My friends rave about all the sandwiches they have tried. They are very friendly behind the counter and the order takers are fast and efficient. It gets crowded but moves fast.

I've been traveling to NYC multiple times a year for decades now, and no matter how many times I…read morevisit, I always find myself drawn back to Katz's Delicatessen. Walking inside feels like stepping back into New York history. It's been a Lower East Side staple since 1888, and you can absolutely feel that old-school energy the second you grab your ticket at the door. The menu is huge and packed with classic Jewish deli staples, but I definitely have my routines down. My absolute favorites are the matzoh ball soup (the matzoh balls are massive and perfectly fluffy), the crispy potato latkes, and a bowl of their comforting chicken noodle soup. When it comes to the mains, their turkey sandwich is incredibly juicy and piled sky-high. These classic sandwiches are definitely made for sharing because they are massive, but if you aren't looking to split a giant portion, they also offer half-sandwich combos and platters which are great options. Just make sure you save a little bit of room for dessert before you leave...their black and white cookies are completely delicious and the perfect sweet finish to a massive deli meal. It's an absolute must-visit every single time I'm in the city.

We arrived on Thursday, July 2, around 10:10 PM after flying in from California. We were exhausted,…read morebut we still took an Uber from our Times Square hotel because we wanted our very first meal in New York to be at our favorite place. Unlike my previous visit, the gentleman who prepared our sandwich was incredibly kind and welcoming. He offered us a sample to taste, smiled, and made us feel appreciated as customers. He deserves recognition for his professionalism. Unfortunately, that's where the good experience ended. By the time we received our sandwiches, it was around 10:30 PM. Even though there were still many customers eating inside, the staff had already stacked chairs upside down on the tables. It looked awful and completely unprofessional. No customer should walk into a restaurant and see that while people are still dining. We were exhausted after a cross-country flight and only intended to sit for five minutes. My husband had already taken a seat while I was waiting for our food. As soon as I walked over with our sandwiches, an employee marched up to us and, in an extremely rude, hostile, and disrespectful manner, ordered us to leave because our food had been packed to go. My husband politely explained that the restaurant didn't close for another 30 minutes, many customers were still eating inside, and that we would be gone in five minutes. He was respectful and simply asked for a little understanding. Instead of showing even the slightest bit of courtesy, the employee continued speaking to us with an arrogant and dismissive attitude, repeatedly insisting that we leave immediately. He wasn't asking--he was throwing us out. We said only one sentence: "We'll be out in five minutes." That was enough for him to treat us as if we were completely unwelcome. We picked up our food and left. We ended up eating our sandwiches in the back of an Uber on the way to our hotel. By then, the excitement of finally arriving in New York and visiting one of our favorite places had been completely ruined. Do you notice that I've written this entire review without even mentioning how the sandwich tasted? That's because when an employee feels entitled to humiliate customers and chase them out like this, the food no longer matters. What disappoints me even more is that no manager stepped in. That tells me this behavior is either accepted or ignored. This was our final visit. We will never return. A business can survive for a while with the mentality of "If one customer doesn't come back, another will." But that attitude eventually destroys the reputation that made the business famous in the first place!! I do have the video and the photo of the disrespectful employee, I can provide it if the owners just message me I avoid sharing his picture here to be respectful.

I always passed this on my way to Penn Station and finally decided to give it a try. It's a small…read morestore with a counter that actually had a fairly extensive menu. You can get sandwiches, Greek specialities, and even some breakfast items (pancakes, French toast, etc.). The menu is great. Lots of options and the prices are wonderful. I had a bagel with egg ,cheese, and gyro as well as coffee. The coffee was really good. I was expecting mediocre to bad coffee but it was actually a nice cup. The food was well made too. It looks like they take their food seriously, even though it's a small botega type place. Despite the low prices, the quality is pretty good. One other nice touch was that they had 3 tables for people to sit at. Although this seems more like a order and take out place, the seating is a nice addition. I would definitely recommend this place for a bit on the way or from Penn Station. Or even if you just want a pretty cheap lunch option, it's a good place to go. You can often (but not always) find parking at the 2 hour parking meters next to the shop.

I like this old school, friendly family vibe. They seem to know everyone that walks in and after my first visit I felt welcomed like everyone else. Prices are ridiculously INEXPENSIVE. Cheap!

The…read morequality of the food is definitely the reason people keep coming back, and those sandwiches are some of my favorites there. However, my experiences with customer service have been mixed. The woman with the gray hair working at the register, I'm not sure if she is the owner or manager has come across as rude toward me on multiple occasions and has given me uncomfortable looks while I'm paying. I've also personally noticed what felt like different treatment toward some Jespy clients compared to other customers coming in, which made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome at times she treats the Jespy clients differently. The setup for ordering subs can also be a little confusing, especially if it's your first time there or if the deli is busy. The line and ordering process could definitely be organized a bit better. The service overall could be friendlier and more welcoming. It's also a little pricey, so I don't go there very often. That being said, the food itself is still very good and worth trying if you're in the area.
