Fodor's Expert Review Rubin's

Founded in 1928, this award-winning, family-owned kosher Jewish delicatessen is the last one in the Boston area. Fluffy omelets, challah French toast, and fruit blintzes dominate the breakfast menu (served all day), while lunch and dinner offerings range from soups and hearty salads to hot brisket and deli sandwiches, like the Hot Pastrami (hand-cut) and over-stuffed Wall Street number (corned beef, tongue, coleslaw, and Russian dressing) that any New Yorker can respect. In a nod toward today's younger, hipper diners, the restaurant now offers sesame teriyaki salmon, chicken marsala, and rib eye with a mushroom-chipotle sauce. There is even a kid's menu with pasta and red sauce and chicken nuggets.
