- Ellie MartinezSeptember 5, 2017Keep it simple, pastrami with mustard on rye all the way! The smokiness of the pastrami is amazing. If you aren't a big eater go the half sandwich with a Matzo ball soup instead. Awesome !!
- Ondrej SedlacekNovember 5, 2018The must do, legendary pastrami sandwich joint of NYC. Rueben or the classic with pastrami instead or corned beef is the way to go. It’s huge! ideally share one between two. 10/10.
- K LNovember 24, 2018Attended their thanksgiving party - every single piece of food was absolutely delicious, and the staff was really nice. Introvert alert: they randomly sit you on a table with completely strangers.🙄
- Ray HostetlerAugust 20, 2018Stop in one of the local bars before you come here and have a few drinks. It’ll mellow you out because the place is stressful!
- Heinie Brian HartendorpJuly 27, 2018Tried Katz's Pastrami Sandwich & it was savagely good!!! Wifey had the Philly cheesesteak which was ok, but the bottled iced tea & lemonade were again on another level! Truly worthy of Harry & Sally!
- Ersin SezmisFebruary 27, 2018It’s a die for deli sandwich! You must try it. I had the pastrami sandwich and it was really delicious. Sandwiches are quite big. Totally worth to wait at the line for a table.
- ClaudioApril 20, 2016Definitely my last meal would be a Reuben Sandwich with pastrami, side of fries and a cream soda. Katz's never fail, excellent attention from everybody around and a lot of seats. ARRIVE EARLY!

- Flor LudueñaJanuary 24, 2017Best hot pastrami sandwich ever. Classic of ny, forbidden not visiting it. Very expensive but worth every bite. You can have half sandwich with salad (photo), it is better without cheese.
- What's Good HereJanuary 24, 2015Can't decide? Try the Reuben Brisket Combo Sandwich (beef brisket and corned beef dry cured month long using a secret pickling formula, topped with Swiss cheese, Russian dressing and Sauerkraut.
- DJ JensenJanuary 21, 2017When you enter, you can choose self or table service. Choose table service. It's more relaxing and the waiters are NY fun. Meaning that they are good, but a little harried, so be on your toes!

- Alexander KuzminOctober 28, 2017No way to find a better pastrami sandwich than Katz deli makes. Portions are huge. Rec!

- QOctober 16, 2022Pastrami sandwich is huge and can easily be shared by two ppl. There is a different counter next to beverages if you would like to pay by card.

- Michael NataleJanuary 12, 2016Go when it's not too crowded and still wait in line. It's worth it. Grab a corned beef or pastrami sandwich. They'll mix too if asked. Pickles are solid. Grab some latkas and matzo ball soup too

- Michael MuseDecember 14, 2014Just the most classic ambiance- you are just feeling the SOUL of NYC when you come here. The pastrami is my favorite order here. HUGE stacks of meat on thin bread slices is the NY deli style sandwich.
- Stacy Bo BacyApril 4, 2019Get in a queue to order and then sit at any open table. If you’re with someone, share a sandwich. If you’re on your own, get half with soup.
- Bokyung ParkJune 7, 2021The famous Pastrami sandwich is HUGE. I guess two females can split a single plate. Recommend you to dine in to see pictures of celebrities and lucky to sit-in When Harry met Sally spot.
- Emilio MoralesMarch 4, 2019One of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! Both the pastrami and the corned beef are to die for!
- LDecember 23, 2016A must-see, brilliant for photos. Classic american diner. $20 pastrami sandwich is best shared, just ask them to cut it - we split it 3 ways easily! And it really was incredibly delicious.
- The best of the best. A mandatory stop for me to get my Pastrami Sandwich fix. They will vacuum pack a Pastrami Brisket for you to take back home. Get a Chocolate Egg Cream also while eating here.
- Emily WilsonSeptember 27, 2016Not feeling pastrami? The turkey sandwich is probably the best I've ever had—so moist! Ask for it with mustard if you're getting it to go, otherwise you can add it yourself at your table.
- Line HawkeyeJuly 10, 2015One of the best places for a lunch! You can split their enormous pastrami sandwich! It is well worth the $20 price tag! The pickles are fabulous!
