Local food magazines consistently rate this the best deli in Los Angeles, and that alone is worth the drive to this north Valley location. The atmosphere is standard issue delicatessen, it's the wonderful service and the great New York style food that really shines here. Pick a comfy booth, scan the huge menu, sit back and relax. The huge sandwiches are stuffed with lean tasty meats and made with soft, fresh rye bread that's truly wonderful.
