What to order

  • Pastrami on rye, mustard only — No mayonnaise, no lettuce. The benchmark, and the only correct construction.
  • Corned beef — The comparison. If both are good, the deli is good.
  • Matzo ball soup — A floater or a sinker — both camps are right, and it tells you about the kitchen.
  • A knish — Potato, baked not fried, if they make their own.

How to spot a good one

  • A slicer running constantly — Meat sliced when you order it. Pre-sliced deli meat oxidises and goes leathery within hours, and it is the single biggest quality variable.
  • Pastrami hand-carved, not machine-sliced — Jewish delis carve navel pastrami by hand in thick irregular slices. Machine-thin pastrami is a different eating experience entirely.
  • Meat cured on site, or a named supplier — The good ones will tell you. Vagueness usually means a distributor.
