    Get Pastrami. Either the Reuben or by itself. And don't forget the sour dill pickles. Best sandwich in NYC maybe anywhere

    Home of the most overpriced and unsavory sandwiches in all of NYC. You can do much better with $20. Like going to Russ & Daughters.

    Annoying. Packed with tourists. Annoyingly long lines. For what? The pastrami sandwich & the pickles are ok, but you can get really good food in this hood without this hustle

    Great sandwiches. Reuben + Katz's Ale is a winner... But a little expensive.

    I've tried them all - Carnegie, Stage, Ben's. It's not even close - Katz's makes the best pastrami sandwich on the planet.

    You should try pastrami and corn beef sandwiches together. Don't fill your stomach up with bread.

    Their pastrami is truly and unequivocally the best you will ever have in this life or the next. Sally had her big 'O' here in, "When Harry Met Sally." You may too. Pricey but justified.
