Akiko IOctober 24, 2013Pastry section only: 30 min free parking for deli purchase. Everything is old fashioned and very sweet. Poppy seed strudel was too sweet to eat a bite.. Not my ally.
Julia ParkAugust 1, 2017Really good pastrami sandwich but the price is kinda ridiculous, not gonna lie.
Steve KrohnJuly 8, 2013Coming to Canter's without ordering the Matzohball Soup is just a missed opportunity!
JasonJune 7, 2012LOVED the brisket!Picked up some cookies from the bakery but forgot to get a Challah... maybe next time!
For all that ails you. #matzoballsoup #cantersdeli @cantersdeli
Oscar GutierrezJuly 10, 2011I still dream about there Liverworts sandwich with beef tongue and a bowl of their barely bean soup Read more
Will BottinickAugust 15, 2013This place holds it own against East Coast establishments. Very friendly wait staff.
Great for breakfast! Great service from super friendly, down to earth people.
Ok..Canters is my favorite LA deli, that said, the fruit cup is ridiculous. Seriously, anyone who appreciates fruit must get one. Better than anywhere else in LA.
Carole JohannesenDecember 9, 2011Try the Bronx...Pastrami & Chopped Chicken Liver with Swiss cheese an red onions. YUMMY
Michael GaraSeptember 16, 2012Was served a Reuben with turkey pastrami today. Wasn't on the menu. Go big or go home.
- Akiko IOctober 21, 2013Very old fashioned on everything. Review is for Pastry section only. Very old fashioned. The poppyseed strudel was too sweet to eat. I'm not a fan of Jewish food.
Candy ManiaMay 28, 2011Hot pastrami FTW. Ever time I want comfort food I come here & leave with a smile.
If you're not going to eat your pickles I'll have yours.
Glenna HorowitzNovember 3, 2011Brents deli in Northridge is way better and well worth the drive... Just saying
- Half sandwich and matzo ball soup... best lunch combo in LA!
Try the Strawberry Cheesecake - How could you go wrong?
Take out only. I am going to another place down the street instead. #dineinlosángeles
