Tipping before asking for your sandwich may give you some extra love

Pastrami on rye with mustard is the stuff of dreams.

Pastrami On Rye With Brown Mustard: A thing of unparalleled beauty. Anthony Bourdain, No Reservations
Jane DongAugust 15, 2014
Remember to tip the guy making your sandwich. Sandwich big enough for two if you're not ravenous
Matt ChengDecember 29, 2015
Pastarmi on rye and the egg shake is the perfect combination.
Imre RaczOctober 11, 2019
Authentic restaurant with premium quality meals.

No better place to get pastrami than here!
Ameen AqeelJanuary 18, 2016
The pastrami with mustard is well worth the hype.
Ruben MarquezOctober 7, 2010
The pastrami on Rye is good, but it depends on the person serving it. We ordered two pastrami's on rye from different people and they were completely different. Dont bother with the fries!
Ben HsuJanuary 7, 2011
house special reuben (pastrami+corn beef+rye+sauerkraut+russian) is crack in meat form. you'll feel like that scene in Requiem for a Dream
Danny ChangNovember 19, 2015
Pastrami sandwich is just yum yum yum :)
Lola LitaApril 22, 2013
It's true! The pastrami! I love that you get samples while you wait.
RTWgirl ArnetteNovember 17, 2014
So iconic. A must when coming to NYC!
Cassie PNovember 23, 2013
Their corn beef sandwich was a little dry but their pastrami is a must!!
DavidJanuary 27, 2013
Katz ale and a pastrami on rye will run you $23 usd. But it's a big ass sandwich!!
Leslie K.November 13, 2011
Easy to understand why Sally had such a great experience here - the pastrami Reuben is definitely o-worthy!
EatocracyJune 10, 2010
It's the quintessential New York deli -- as seen in When Harry Mat Sally. Order the classics: corned beef, pastrami or tongue with a Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray chaser.
ChandraisgreatApril 30, 2011
Every cutter has his own line so don't be afraid to move around. To order beer go to the burger guy. I suggest the katz's ale
Emilio VitoloDecember 31, 2014
Best Pastrami sandwich I ever had...and its monstrous !!
travel42August 31, 2011
Classic and delicious. HUGE sandwiches. The pastrami is a must. Bring a friend to share.
Movie MayorOctober 14, 2010
I'll have what she's having. The famous scene of 1989's "When Harry Met Sally" took place here at Katz's. There's even a sign at the specific table where Billy Crystal and Megan Ryan sat Read more
Cristiano KokApril 23, 2016
Monster pastrami Sandwich in a caothic atmosphere. The place is so noisy that you will not even hear Sally groaning...
Atelier MinyonSeptember 27, 2012
What can we say that hasn't been said? We love Katz's. And When Harry Met Sally. Perfect combo!

Go for early lunch to avoid rush, before 12, tip the meat cutters

Order a Pastrami Reuben with a Dr. Brown's Cel-ray Soda. Best Pastrammy Sammy in NY, forget Carnegie Deli. Even better than Canter's in LA. And don't forget to tip your guy.
Nicolas BrugneauxDecember 7, 2018
Its excellent, don't get me wrong; but $24 for a sandwich??? Consider yourself warned.
Christopher CSeptember 16, 2010
Reuben w/ Pastrami will make you sit at your table in awe. Amazing. I wish I could just sit there until I am hungry again.
Yesbelt FernandezJanuary 14, 2011
Get a side of coleslaw to go with your pastrami sandwhich and ask for two extra sices of bread and share with a friend.
ErndogMarch 15, 2019
Gotta go with pastrami!

Don't get table service. Tip your sandwich maker. Enjoy a half of a pastrami or corned beef sandwich with a bowl of matzoh ball soup on a cold, wintry day.
Alex FishSeptember 3, 2014
Been here 5+ times
If you tip the pastrami guy while he's cutting the meat, you get a better cut
Christiana MakariouSeptember 12, 2018
The pastrami sandwich is to DIE for!
Mychael LourençoFebruary 28, 2018
Awesome Pastrami sandwich. Best I’ve had.
Mike O'DeaAugust 19, 2011
Tongue and mustard on rye FTW. Half sour tomato and pickles also for the secondary win. Seriously don't lose that ticket.
Leo SumulongJanuary 3, 2015
Still the best pastrami. I have a hard time believing that will ever change.
Katherine M.April 28, 2014
Classic. Pastrami sandwich and matzo ball soup every time.
BrendaDecember 20, 2013

Richard Cuthbert-SayersNovember 10, 2011
This is by far the best deli in new york, despite Carnegie deli's claim. Eat hear and don't go any further!!!
Liz MackDecember 9, 2015
Good sandwich but crazy expensive. Make sure to keep your ticket!
Wayland ChanApril 14, 2013
