Kosher restaurant · Midtown West

@eater

"This kosher Garment Distric fixture, a chain originating in Long Island, took over the humongous space (seating 360) two decades ago. The premises was once a deli called Lou G. Siegel, which had been in this location since 1917. The combination of the two creates one of the oldest continuously operating delis in town. The sprawling menu here is sometimes hit or miss, but the hot tongue is superb. The pastrami is good but not fantastic. Don’t miss the glistening gefilte fish, but skip the too-sweet cabbage soup." - Robert Sietsema
