"Boasting “World Famous Pastrami” and a Southern California pedigree that stretches back to 1951, The Hat’s first out-of-state expansion planned a 2020 debut in Spring Valley. First revealed back in May 2019, pastrami dip sandwiches, chili fries, and hot dogs were moving into a 4,122-square-foot restaurant upgraded with an outdoor patio and drive-thru at 6239 S. Rainbow Blvd., close to the intersection with Sobb Avenue. The famed attraction is thinly sliced pastrami served on a French roll with mustard and pickle and dipped in the house recipe au jus. Also available, roast beef dips, burgers, cold sandwiches, fries with gravy, onion rings, and chili fries served with tomato and pickle. Zero movement on this permit during 2020." - Susan Stapleton
