Brett AfrickFebruary 19, 2014This might be the best deli in Boston or perhaps the whole US. Their pastrami is worlds ahead of Zaftigs and such nice people working here too.
- Jeremy KrantzMarch 22, 2015Their sandwiches are amazing but their knishes shouldn't be overlooked either. Great food all around
Dave TurnbullAugust 8, 2011Massive Pastrami Sandwiches! Very friendly owners. If you order the corned beef, have it on Rye with mustard. If you ask for different you will get a weird look- Jeremy KrantzSeptember 16, 2014This place is cash only BUT worth the hassle of hitting up the ATM. Great deli!
- Jeremy KrantzAugust 28, 2014Try their corned beef on white bread with a little deli mustard. Amazing.
Riley JohnsonMay 17, 2014Mango chicken salad is delightful. Especially "dirty" with sweet potato chips!
What's not to love? Reubens (on pumpernickel) are HUGE, bagels are awesome, cream soda in a bottle & a can.. & what's that? Moxie! PS-They also carry Pearl hot dogs in the freezer.
Tom KainApril 10, 2012Need to remember to try their Tuna Melt - I always get the Jacob's choice sandwich (amazing!)
The Thorton is king! Hot pastrami, hots,mustard, cheddar cheese! Boom!
- Alex DakinJanuary 18, 2011The best Deli in Boston bar none. Puts Zaftigs to shame for half the price. although still not cheap.
You can have a Half Rachel but its not half a sandwich, rather half the meat.
- Steve StromOctober 19, 2009get the best pastrami sandwich in greater Boston! (on pumpernickel with Swiss & mustard)
Its my Fixx at least 2-3 times per week. Super uber YUM!!!!!!
