Saw this place on Diners, Drive ins and dives and finally made it there. I had the egg cheese and pastrami on a bagel. It was amazing! Super flavorful and it was a big, messy sandwich. Make sure you get plenty of napkins. read more

This place wasn't too far from our hotel so we had to try it before work.. We had seen a recent Diners and Drive Ins and Dives and were happy to see a Florida spot featured. We felt we should support the local economy. This was an easy access off of I-4. The black truck was easy to spot. It was parked next to a coffee and dessert truck. The two trucks formed a V and in between were arranged several small sofas, patio chairs, etc. with seating for about 8 people. We shared a pastrami on rye -- it came with mustard on it, a side of cole slaw and a sour dill pickle wedge. We added some fries. And a Dr Brown's Cel-Ray which came in a bottle (it's usually in cans). The pastrami meat was tender and flavorful. Melting in your mouth. The rye bread was soft too. The fries were okay -- salted -- but good when you're sharing. I'd skip the fries next time and get a whole sandwich myself! This was worth the stop, but keep in mind that you are sitting outside, so depending on the weather it can be hot. They did a large take out business as we were waiting for our order and while we were eating there. The coffee truck also had its followers... read more

The Pastrami Project - Pastrami on rye - Food Trucks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Stopped by around 11:30 for lunch during the week. There was no one in line so I was immediately greeted by the owner and other worker. I ordered the Ruben and then the Bagel with Lox. The food was quickly prepared in front of my eyes within minutes. The bagel was LOADED with lox, I mean this thing was over flowing. The ruben came with a pickle and some slaw. Everything was very delicious and tasty. Workers were friendly. The owner make his own dog biscuits - he gave me some to bring home to my dogs! Will definitely be coming back here. read more

Hard to find, but when you turn and see the truck it's a "There it is" excitement! I was the only person there and had the opportunity / time to hear the DDD story and appreciated the conversation... Oh yeah, the food... I said, "What can't I miss?" and the response was, "The Rueben"...and I was hoping he would say that. The meat was THE most tender Pastrami I've ever had...DELISH! Topped with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing...perfect! The Cole slaw is usually thrown on because you have to put something on there...but don't miss it...it's more than a side! Sometimes you see these places on TV and think, "Is it really that good?" Well, in this case, it's totally true and worth the 30 minute drive I took to get there... I'll be back! read more

The pastrami is cooked in house and he makes his own bread. Delicious, great for pick up.

Absolutely delicious! Authentic recipes and very fresh. Friendly service with good stories to share while waiting.

I had met George, the owner of this food truck at A Land Remembered several months ago. I heard him talking about pastrami, and asked him if he was the food truck owner that was featured on the Food Network one evening. Indeed he is. I was near his location one day, and decided to stop by and have me a pastrami sandwich. I found the meat very tender and cured. It was very a little too smoky for my taste, but very good. You could tell that the coleslaw it's fresh, and homemade. It just had that flavor about it. I'm also going to assume that the side pickle that came with the sandwich, is also homemade. Overall, everything was very good, very tasty, I enjoyed it all. I desire George all the success in the world, and next time I'm in this part of Orlando I will definitely stop by and pay him a visit. I definitely recommend that you try is pastrami sandwich. read more

The Pastrami Project - 5/15/18 - Food Trucks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I told the owner, "As long as I live in Orlando, I'll keep coming back here" and I mean it. I'm from up north, so I'm a sucker for a really good pastrami sandwich. This place has some of the best smoked meats, fresh bread, and overall food I've had in a while. The coleslaw is probably the best I've had. This was my first time trying the brisket tacos and I highly recommend them to anyone who goes, very filling and amazing taste! Attached is a picture of my sandwich read more

Excellent sandwiches, coleslaw and fries. Quickly prepared as well. The donkey sauce was okay.

What a great find! We work right around the corner so I had seen the signs for a little while now, decided to check it out for lunch today. I had the signature pastrami sandwich. Meat was super tender, seasoned just right, just melts in your mouth. Great mustard and a solid rye bread to round it off. Take me back to Katz's deli in NY! The slaw was also great, not the traditional slaw I was expecting but a more tangy slaw, mustard and some black pepper, very good. All finished off with a great pickle. One of my buddies had a rueben which looked amazing, toasted and melty. The other had the brisket tacos and was raving - and he doesn't stray from his usual staples often so it must have been good. For sure will be making this a regular lunch spot. You should stop by if you're nearby and visit this pastronomer, food is on point! read more

Well, I wish there were a "boost" button on the ratings, as 5-stars just doesn't seem to cut it. The Pastrami Project is seriously good food. I stopped in after my morning meeting, to pick up lunch. Right off the bat, the owner said he'd pack everything individually; and, gave me clear, specific directions for reheating and serving, which I wrote down on the box. My wife and I had an INCREDIBLE lunch, of Hot Pastrami on Rye, reheating the meat exactly as prescribed; and, applying our preferred amount of spicy, brown mustard that was provided. The Coleslaw is among the BEST we have ever sampled; and, the Dill Pickle was authentic! The Pastrami Project and its "Pastronomer" are planning a trip to the east side of town next month, so we are already planning an outing to try the Rueban! I didn't check the beverage selection; but, if we'd had some Dr. Brown's Sodas to go with lunch, we'd have thought we'd gone to heaven. It was a sublime experience. read more

The Pastrami Project - Pastrami Project at Par Street and I-4. - Food Trucks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Lives up to the hype. Flavortown, a one way ticket. Worth stopping by any time I'm in the area.

We've been in Kissimmee a few months and finally decided to check out this truck today. We're so glad we did! We got a brisket sandwich on rye and a pastrami Reuben and then split the sandwiches. Both the sandwiches came with cole slaw and a pickle. We also got potato latkes with sour cream. I was wondering if brisket on rye would be a little tough, but it turned out to be tender and juicy. There was a generous amount of "donkey" sauce. The pastrami was the star of the show. It was beautifully seasoned and smoked to perfection. My half of the sandwich had a little bit of burnt end in it, and it was heavenly. The Russian dressing was liberally applied and included little bits of caviar. The latkes were large balls of perfectly fried hash browns rather than thin pancakes. They came with a very generous portion of sour cream and were delicious. I had a Dr Brown's diet cream soda and my wife tried the Cel Ray celery soda. The Cel Ray had a good flavor and was rather mild. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to find it, but I wouldn't hesitate to get it again if I have the chance. There was a lull after our food was ready, and the owner sat outside with us and chatted until the next customers arrived. We enjoyed hearing the story of how he went from his IT company to serving up mouth watering pastrami. All-in-all this was an excellent meal, and we walked away stuffed. I highly recommend this food truck, even if you have to drive 30 minutes to get there like we did! read more

The Pastrami Project - a black food truck - Food Trucks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I just started a job in Orlando coming from NYC so I wanted a good Pastrami Sandwich, so I went to the Pastrami Project truck, it was a bit hard to find as I drove around the block 3 times only to find it. First I must say the Pastrami was really good and I am not a slaw person but that too was really good. My minuses are the following and I'm not being critical just a few things as I was bought up on pastrami in New York/New Jersey. for me the bread was great but not as stiff as it should be to hold the Pastrami so its not going thru the bread, I like my pastrami cut a bit thinner and a bit more meat would be nice. it was a bit thick and not spread across the bread as there was times that I ate just bread. overall out of 10 I give it a 7 and yes I would go back 1 more time to try it again. The Owner was super friendly and the pickle was OUTSANDING !!!! Keep your eyes open to find it, as you can miss it. read more

Very good pastrami sandwich. The pastrami is hand cut, but not quite thin enough. The bread is made from scratch, but it is cut a bit thick and doesn't had the rigidity and stiffness to hold a pastrami sandwich. Just a few things to be picky about, but if you're looking for a great quality NY pastrami, this gets somewhat close. read more

I had a piece of this truck's N.Y.-style cheescake as well as a black and white cookie when it was at the food truck event in Longwood (the third Mon. of every month at the church near where Rangeline Road and E.E. Williamson intersect) last month. Both were very good! I already had some actual dinner from a few of the other trucks, so I didn't order any dinner items from The Pastrami Project, but I definitely would consider it in the future. I don't know much about the truck at this time ... if you want to know more, check out its website at www.pastramiproject.com and follow its progress on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/ThePastramiProject ... it looks like updates about where the truck will be and when are posted as the truck goes out on the road. read more

Pastrami is the best ever. (Even better than Katz's and Ben's in NYC ). And I'm from the Big Apple too. THE Best Breakfast sandwich ever. Love having Pastrami n Eggs and on a great everything bagel to boot. Great Reuben Sandwich n fries too. Try the Reuben Rolls ( a twist on an egg roll) they are HUGE. Russian dressing has a nice kick too. Note truck is in back of Italian Restaurant on N Magnolia Make a right on Granada Ct. look for DDD sign on Magnolia read more

Pretty good! It's definitely more of an "inspired" Reuben than a traditional-styled Reuben flavor wise. The meat has that charred, grilled taste to it, very tender. The outside was also charred too. It added a good crunch. The Russian dressing was different than the traditional, but it was good. I like how they added the spicy mustard as well. I love that they loaded it with sauerkraut. I'd recommend this for a lighter version of the traditional sandwich. read more

Very solid food choice, we had the pastrami sandwich and the brisket on a croissant....excellent. As a side we had the Reuben rolls also a very good choice. The owner was very friendly and service was very efficient. The cole slaw was average and ok for a side. We traveled 45 min to get there and were happy with the food. The area is a bit off ( just off an overpass) but it is fine for a food truck experience. read more

You down wit TPP? I watched it on tv and it does not disappoint. It's on Magnolia and Granada Ct. I got the Pastrami sandwich "kit",Its wrapped separately for travel so it doesn't get all mixed up.

Found this little gem of a food truck hiding behind the Café Trastevere Italian restaurant. I'll say that the wife and I love a good Reuben and we weren't disappointed. The pastrimi was in giant chucks that completely melted in your mouth. The pastrimi was the center stage and I loved every bite. He's got a couple outdoor seats in the secluded parking lot. But boy he can wrap up a great To Go box as well. read more

What you get at a 5 star food truck under the I-4 overpass at Par St. is solid deliciousness. The mini biscuit sandwich comes with a slice of lightly fried ham, slice of cheese and topped with an over easy quail's egg! The biscuit itself is slightly toasted prior to placing all components together making a well executed savory breakfast sandwich. Ambiance: You're under a freeway, so change your perspective. It's fun. The coffee truck parked next to it creates another "wall" making a pseudo coffee shop feel, with outdoor furniture and side tables with today's paper for reading material. The area is kid and dog friendly. Hours: Mon-Fri 7am-2pm, Sat 8am-2pm Fun fact: Last February, Food Network's Guy Fieri featured The Pastrami Project for his "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" while in Orlando. The show aired in March. Check it out and support our local peeps! read more

The first pastrami sandwich that would make it in boston since moving to florida. Cute little food truck nestled behind cafe Trastevere. We are use to amazing food in boston and since moving down south things ate not the same. His sandwiches ( we have tried both brisket and pastrami), latkes and cole slaw are must haves. The rye bread is thick and authentic. The only thing we have tried that I would not highly recommend was the tuna it is mixed dark tuna which is not my preference. If you are living or visiting orlando you must try this place for authentic deli. Go earlier rather than later he may sell out. Also you can order online and pickup, if you order there be prepared to wait there is only the chef/owner working. read more

I'm newer Florida transplant from NJ. I saw this food truck just down the street from me and I had to give it a try. I was excited to see they offered many of the foods I'm used to from up north.

The Pastrami Project - Reuben Tacos- soo yummy!! - Food Trucks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Came here with my wife to eat what Guy Fieri ate on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. It is a food truck located in what looked like an abandoned gas station. Despite the location, the food was absolutely amazing. We both tried the Pastrami on Rye, and the Lox & Shmear. Both are probably some of the best sandwiches I have ever had. Tender, flavorful, and perfect in every way. Will definitely be coming back when back in town. read more

I do not take it lightly going for lower stars but I feel like the tenderness of pastrami and the delicateness of the sandwich speak for themselves. The pepper came through in the best way topped by the fact that they only use mustard. However, the meat was tough and it did not come through as a pastrami sandwich should. To top it all off there was a quarter of the meat that I would expect from a Jewish deli. read more

I went here for breakfast the day after they were on DDD and I was blown away. I had an everything bagel with egg cheese and pastrami and it seriously could be the best breakfast sandwich I've had in Orlando. It was perfectly toasted, well seasoned and the pastrami was perfect. Can't wait to go back. My wife had the bagel with lox and a schmear and really enjoyed it. Good bagel and tons of lox. We also had the latkes which I thought were just ok. I prefer mine a little thinner so you get more crispy and less filling. But they had a good flavor. I really want to return for lunch for more pastrami. It could be crave-able. read more

We have known about the Pastrami Project truck for a few years now, but it has been a while since we visited. Found out that George has a set location off Par Ave, and the Bosses requested some bagels for our Friday shop treat, so off I went. We ordered 8 bagels with cream cheese on the side (we have a toaster at our shop, so everyone likes to make their own), a Call the Doctor, (which 1 boss said was very tasty), a Three Egg Cheese Omelet with Pastrami and swiss (which another boss devoured very fast, super satisfied), an order of Potato Latkes (like crispy, thick potato pancakes), and 2 orders of the Reuben Rollls, which were something amazing. The flavors were just exploding with every bite on those rolls. And the Russian dressing???!?!!! OMG I will never be able to have another Reuben with Thousand Island crap again!! haha. Bravo on this amazing Friday breakfast treat, George! Thanks for being so welcoming and nice. p.s...I did forget to ask if the black and white cookies are still available, but I'll save that for lunch next week. read more

I would love to give this place a better review because the food was ok. They just have a bevy of problems. I've gone to this truck twice and eaten once. The first time I walked away because it was the slowest truck ever. Each sandwich was taking about 8 min. And on top of that customers weren't even acknowledged when they came to truck and were waiting for 10 min. I had to walk away. The second time I actually got to order and even though the employees were rude I wanted to actually try the food. The $12 ruben came out. It was very small, the bread wasn't toasted at all (which is only unfortunate, not required), and the pastrami was only alright. I've seen multiple sandwiches from this truck and they are all too small to justify the price as well as having very inconsistent amounts of meat. read more

Simply put, The Pastrami Project makes the best pastrami in Orlando. They are the only business I have set to *notify* me specifically when they make a post, so I can try to go there. I've had their pastrami at least 4 times now. Each time it's been fantastic. They'll cut your meat the way you like it, lean or fatty. Just don't ask for mayonnaise on it! My wife is Jewish, and she has extremely exactly standards for pastrami. The Pastrami Project is the only pastrami she's had in Orlando that is even acceptable. I highly highly recommend The Pastrami Project for all your pastrami eating needs. read more

Saw this on triple D. Diners, Drive-ins & Dives. Being on Keto diet and willing to cheat a little on vacation the Ruben was on the mind. And this place didn't disappoint us. Also,wanting to support the family owned businesses we made the 20 min. Drive. Wow. Can't say enough about this sandwich. We opted for the extra meat. 2/3 lb of pastrami on homemade bread and sauce. Smoked to perfection. Nice smoke edge on meat. Very moist and sliced perfectly, piled high and didn't overflow the bread. Was able to eat in car without getting all over us. A two napkin meal. This is authentic New York style Ruben. Thought we might save half for later but was to good to wait. The coleslaw was very good with and the pickle was lightly seasoned but firm. I liked it the wife likes them a little more strong. I definitely would recommend this to anyone who likes pastrami. The food truck is tucked in behind a restaurant if you follow directions it's easy to find. And well worth the trip. We will be back next time in town. Staying with Keto. Had the Diet Cream soda. From New York. Very good. Low sodium 25 mg. For a soda. As if it matters. For a sandwich all made from scratch. You can't beat this place. Guy Fieri nailed this one. Well worth the price. This post a little long but it was that good. read more

A very mediocre experience. If you go to the spot on Par there is nowhere to sit in the shade so prepare to die. No clue what food was served on Guy Fieri because this was two thick slices of okay pastrami on a sandwich for $10. I actually preferred Pickles in Longwood and at least there you can sit and eat in AC. Was there for noon rush (nobody) so kind of was forewarned about what to expect. read more
