Deli food in NYC ?
 

I love Deli food.<BR>Where to go in May in NYC for real Deli Food ?<BR>( please no Carnegie Deli Style).<BR>Thank you, Fodors experts!

What "style" are you looking for?

Second Avenue Deli (2nd Avenue & 10th Street). However, like the previous poster, I'm not sure about your definition of "style"!

Katz Deli on E.Houston is a landmark. Their pastrami sandwich will make you do a Meg Ryan in When HM Sally, where that scene was filmed coincidentally.

<BR>Another vote for Katz! Pastrami on rye with mustard, Yum!

Another great deli is barney greengrass on amsterdam and 86th. amaaaazing smoked fish. it's a zoo on weekend brunches so go early.

You are all making me hungry.

The Stage Deli or Roxy's.

Another vote for Roxy. Make sure you're really hungry, though.

Denise, I wouldn't classify Barney Greegrass as a deli. A true NYC deli does not serve Smoked fish.

Don't miss Veselka which is on<BR>2nd avenue in the east village.<BR>the cross street is 9th street.<BR>it is a deli/diner and its Polish.<BR>So there is no pastrami there.<BR>get the Bigos - its huge!!!<BR>Second Ave deli is kosher, so there<BR>is no dairy products there.

My preference is Sarge's on 3rd Ave around 37th. It is a little smaller, but the menu is awesome.

We we to the Carnegie Deli yesterday due to it's proximity to the theatre...the sandwiches are huge and you can share for $3.00.. but the stuff is tasteless..our NJ friends couldn't understand why people were waiting in line.
