Rosenfeld's Jewish Deli

Extensive menu, immense portions, and immaculate customer service!…read more If you want a good meal with great people in a great atmosphere, Rosenfeld's is exactly where you want to be! With the classic deli line ready to serve you meats and deli treats, plus a restaurant with decor worth grabbing a seat and enjoying your favorite Jewish classics! The walls are covered in caricatures of famous Jewish actors, singers, athletes, and more. The local artists made great depictions of each, but they do have a cheat sheet for anyone that wants to figure out who they all are. The menu is huge... and everything is amazing! We have had the latkes and kugal before, but this time we ordered the Onion Dog, Paul's Reuben, and the Onion Ring/Fries Combo. Don't worry - they start you off with a complimentary bowl of pickles... with a full barrel in plain sight if you have the gumption to need a refill. The Onion Dog is a 1/3 pound beef dog spliced open for a drizzle of onion marmalade and topped with fresh fried onions. I swear this marmalade needs to be jarred asap - as it makes the hot dog one of my favorite bites! Paul's Reuben is clearly a dinner favorite! With 8 oz of fresh sliced corned beef piled high and a delicious sauerkraut and dressing! The Onion Rings/Fries combo seems simplistic, until the heaping basket comes your way - and the more than unique thick spiraled fries. Never have I ever seen these... and they are definitely something to stop in for all on their own. The waitresses are just great people. Asking about your vacation, giving pro tips on how to make your order perfection, and just caring about you like a family member would at a home cooked meal in your kitchen. If you dare have room, the desserts are sliced fresh from a display in the deli - I couldn't help but take pictures of the Skyscraper Cakes (Chocolate and Carrot options). Delivered to another table, this four layer cake was sliced in a 2" tome that looked more like an encyclopedia delivery than a dessert!

The Latkes were good, as were the onion rings. The French fries didn't impress me. The mushroom barley soup was tasty. Pastrami was good, not so much for the corned beef or brisket. I was actually disappointed with the brisket, it tasted by boiled beef. Being a 70+ year old kid from the Bronx who grew up with kosher deli's on every other corner I was spoiled. Nothing is like it used to be. But thankful that places like Rosenfeld's are still around and keeping memories alive. In a week I will be visiting the Bronx again and going to the last kosher deli in the Bronx. So if you're in the Bronx stop by Liebman's. Keep the memories going.

Pancakes are huge, you can share one!! I recently tasted the carrot and pecan, didn't really taste like carrot, but did have the pecans. It was tasty, but not what I expected. The only disappointment was the host's approach when I asked for a table for two. I immediately saw a table in a corner, so I asked if we could have that table and he turned to me and told me "be patient". Catching himself and realizing how rude that came off, he tried to smooth it off. I was taken a back. Notwithstanding our server was amazing. She was so pleasant very attentive and eager to please and making sure that we were OK. My delicious summer McMuffin, egg, bacon, turkey sausage Gruyère cheese, and arugula sandwich was just what I wanted for my palate. I had the orange beet and turmeric juice, which I always find refreshing. Ambience is busy, spacious seats and booths.

The lady of the group ordered eggs benedict which were served cold and quite congealed. One of the gentlemen ordered his eggs sunny side up. Instead, they were over easy. The Second Gentleman had ordered the soup and half sandwich combo, and instead received the soup and whole sandwich, which wasn't the special. This tells us several things. First, the server was disorganized and did not correctly capture any of the orders. Second, it takes us that if the orders were captured correctly, the kitchen messed up. But third, even if the orders were incorrect and the kitchen made them wrong, the server failed to check the orders before bringing them to the diners. There's absolutely no excuse for serving cold food. There's even less excuse for getting all the orders wrong. This is table stakes in any restaurant.
