Try the Pastrami on Rye with Brown Mustard - Now that's a #classic sandwich!!
Kay TeoMarch 19, 2015I didn't like pastrami until this place. You don't know pastrami until you've had Katz.
They do take credit cards, just not at the counter you hit as you leave. Only the delivery counter. Best to just bring cash.
Daniela CuryMay 27, 2011Yes, the Pastrami sandwich is amazing, but try the Frankfurter too. To die for!
Darryl M.November 7, 2010pastrami on rye is the way to go. soooo gooood! don't lose your ticket or they will hang you and laugh.
See Allen at the counter and ask whats best that day-he's the best cutter. Leave a tip for your cutter too!
Gina MITLONovember 17, 2011simply the best place to eat in new york your not in new york till you eat @ katz's
Rose GMSeptember 15, 2010To drink, you've got to try Dr. Brown's Cel-ray Soda, it's a classic with pastrami. You know what sandwich to get.
Jeff WooOctober 15, 2010Get the Pastrami sandwich! Don't get the corned beef (too dry). Sally (from When Harry met Sally) had the Pastrami! ;)
Amber KatzJuly 7, 2012If your last name is Katz... that will get you exactly nowhere. Get the turkey.
Nick DutchNovember 4, 2011Miss the soup and go straight to the sandwiches. Don't expect the royal treatment. Service is short but it works!
- Su ChungSeptember 5, 2011Don't lose the ticket. They jot all ur charges on it and u pay in the line at the very end. Keeps the lines moving
If you're here for the first time and you don't get a pastrami sandwich, why did you even bother?
Jim AndersonFebruary 5, 2012Try the Chopped Liver Sandwich - Chopped Liver 11.10 - "Like Grandma Made - only better"
Decor MusingsMay 22, 2011The pastrami sandwich trumps everything else on the menu. And the fries are perfect.
- Gary GonzalezApril 2, 2011Goddamn! Freakin' awesome pastrami sandwich! Go to Allan's station and tip well. He deserves it. Go Navy!
