NileGuide Expert Says:
In addition to its mammoth sandwiches, Katz's boasts the best available Jewish deli staples, including frankfurters, knockwurst, knishes and more.
Description:
Established in 1888, Katz's has the honor of being the city's oldest delicatessen, and its classic New York Jewish style has made it into a top tourist destination (watch those buses stop at the curb). Inside, you can wait in the cafeteria-style line or sit in the area marked "waiter service," where a sign marks the table where Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan sat while filming their famous scene in "When Harry Met Sally." Come for the dill pickles, old-fashioned cream soda, or--most famously--the thick sandwiches of pastrami and roast beef carved by hand, old-school-style.

Reportedly the most popular Jewish deli in NY now

Food was out of this world, our waiter was the worst waiter I've ever had in my life (and I am pushing 60, and lived in New York and ate out all the time for 25 years.) He was...
