I also was very tempted to try the various other menu items until the pastrami options snapped me back to reality. For the pastrami sandwich, they gave you options how you like your pastrami. Hand cut or shaved. I went with the former. The bite was so meaty. I was happy with this sandwich. I look forward to eventually trying the other menu items.

Honestly love the restaurant love the lovely people working there I just think the pastrami itself fell short the meat was very dry tasted over boiled not very juicy (proper Pastrami ought to be smoked and then boiled gently this tasted like it was majority boiled) I told them just deli mustard and L/T/O on the side but they still added it in the sandwich it's okay though. Nice lady working there brought me out a water cup to go as I was just on my way out after inspecting it at their table. So lovely of her! I might return for their Reuben which seems to be a huge hit though I'm kinda not looking forward to Russian Dressing it's a heavy hitter sauce for me at the moment

They are relain good, and not too salty. Ganfan and Fajitas were pretty similar to each other but super salty. If they balance the salt of the dishes it would be easily 4 stars or better. The vegetables were good well, and crispy, which was delicious.

The salmon was good, and the chicken was really tender and flavorful. Everything came out nicely presented and tasted good. Overall, great food & location, friendly service, and a nice place to come back to -- especially for the khachapuri.

The owners were lovely. It's now owned and run by a Latino couple. They told me they purchased the place about 4 years ago. I ordered the bratwurst in a bun (I chose the polish sausage) and a side of potato salad. The total for the two came to $20.10. The polish sausage was good, the pretzel bun was delicious. I actually sliced up the sausage and ate the sausage and bun separately dipping both in the German mustard. The mustard was the star of the plate! It was absolutely fantastic. The potato salad was supposed to be a traditional German potato salad (made without mayo) but it was very runny and had no flavor. More like bland runny mashed potato's (but with no butter or cream) with lumps of potatoes in it. It was $5.95. I would suggest to pass on this item. I couldn't leave without trying dessert so I tried the almond lemon torte and a berry cream cake. The cake was a very light sponge cake with whipped cream filling. The lemon torte with the light almond crust was delicious. I would highly recommend! The two items came to a total of $17.90. The breakfast seems to be pretty popular and looking at the menu I can see why. I'll be back again to try some of the breakfast items and a few items I noticed on the lunch/dinner menu. (And I really want to try one of their large pretzels,made in house, with that delicious German mustard)

The food is adequate. The staff are really great…read more It's a fine little sandwich shop. They could source some better quality bread (now that the bakery portion has closed). I got the curry wurst which was good, but said it came with "German bread"... it was whole wheat buttered toast like from a grocery store... and not even a baguette freshly sliced, which would've been a better option than pre-sliced sandwich bread... My son got the Black Forest ham sandwich. He devoured his sandwich and enjoyed the Remoulade dressing on the sandwich.

Perfect spot to catch up over drinks and solid German fare…read more Came here with some coworkers and honestly, the vibe alone is worth the visit. The ambiance and service were both amazing, it's just one of those places where you can actually relax and have good conversation without feeling rushed. Got the brat in a bun with sauerkraut, sautéed onions, and jalapeños, plus a side of fries. The brat was legit and hit the spot, exactly what you want from a German spot. Simple, well-executed, and satisfying. Can't remember exactly which drinks I had (that's usually a good sign, right?), but I do remember they were really good. The drink selection here is solid and they know what they're doing behind the bar. For the price point and the quality of the experience - good food, great drinks, excellent atmosphere - the value is there. This isn't just about filling your stomach; it's about having a good time while you do it. Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot to catch up with friends or coworkers over drinks and some quality German food. Will definitely be back.

It is the best bagel shop in the Bay Area hands down, and dare I say...the best bagels I've personally ever had?

This family owned bagel shop is 100% the move .... don't fall for the new, fancy bagel traps in the area! They're not the same!!!

Izzy's Brooklyn Bagels - Palo Alto…read more Five stars. Zero crumbs left behind. Izzy's is what happens when a bagel shop actually cares. Super fresh, warm inside, nice chew without turning into a jaw workout. You can taste the difference. My regular lineup: Blueberry Sesame Everything (loaded properly -- not shy with the seasoning) The schmear situation is serious. The blueberry is dangerously good. The walnut raisin is my sleeper favorite -- creamy, nutty, little pops of sweetness from the raisins. It's the one you don't think you need... until you try it. Sun-dried tomato is great when you want savory. And for the Jewish diehards: the whitefish spread is legit. Creamy, balanced, tastes like it belongs in a proper deli case. Bottom line: great bagels, deep schmear bench, authentic spreads. Palo Alto is lucky.
