The Gig
Lunch

The Grub
#10 pastrami on rye with swiss and russian dressing. Order of cole slaw on the side and ordered extra pickle spears.

Companion 1 had a #19
Companion 2 had a #8

The Scene
It's a venerable spot with free parking across the street. The neighborhood is not the best, but since they close at 4, you won't be there after dark. Did not bother me at all.

They do not lie when they say they have the best pastrami. My sandwich was huge (made for 2 meals) and was the most delicious pastrami I've ever had. Better than any I got at Katz's in NY (seriously) and 100% better than Canter's.

I'm still thinking about this sandwich.....do not resist, just go.

Their full amazing menu can be seen here.

Hungry for good deli, go here. The famed #19 did look absolutely delicious. Mine was nirvana on a plate.
