Kings Deli

September 2023: I was craving a sandwich and found this place searching Google Maps. I tried the tuna sandwich with potato salad. The sandwich was served on this delicious dark wheat bread. Plenty of filling 👍! The potato salad was really fresh and delicious. We actually ordered two large containers to go 😋! My family also ordered sandwiches. Recommend the club sandwich, hot pastrami sandwich, and the double dip (2x the pastrami). Everyone left full and completely satisfied. Service was warm and friendly. Would definitely come back again for more delicious sandwiches.

After hearing that they were voted best deli in Burbank I thought I should give it a try. I stopped in for a late lunch (just before closing) and they couldn't have been nicer. I asked Jackie what one of the more popular items were as I would like shoot it for my food portfolio and she suggested the pastrami sandwich. It didn't disappoint in taste or visual and the atmosphere of the deli is just so old school. I'll go back! Photos: Marty Morris/MPM Photography

Small deli with delicious options. I had the classic pastrami and it was delivered to my table very quickly. Staff was super nice and everything we had tasted awesome. Perfect location too. I'll be back for sure.

Was in the mood for a fresh sandwich not from a large chain and found this place during lunch on google and it was close by. The cashier was super nice and friendly through conversation she ended up telling me she was the owner. I had a solo lunch on the patio with my Turkey Sandwich that was delicious and just what I was craving. Will definitely be coming back!

Had high hopes due to online buzz, but fell short. Sandwich priced at $22, plus requested tip. Service extremely slow, 35-minute wait for a sandwich at 1pm. Staff prioritized large order for production company of over 50+ sandwiches, leaving all 10+ of us in the deli waiting 30+ min. Cop who was also there told us he waited over 45 minutes too. When asked, staff was unkind and did not apologize for the delay whatsoever. Sandwiches disappointing; roast beef lacked flavor, veggies spoiled. Boyfriend disliked brisket panini but didn't want to waste time refunding it. Overall, horrible experience, underwhelming food. Won't return or recommend. Many better options under $15.

A chill sandwich shop conveniently located to the studios. Sandwich was good. Unfortunately, not a standout, but solid. It was the wait time which was much to long. 30+ mins waiting around wasn't worth it. Advice - order ahead!

If you're looking for an amazing breakfast, you have to try the bacon breakfast bagel and pastrami breakfast bagel! The pastrami was so juicy and flavorful - it just melted in my mouth. And the portion size was huge, so it kept me full for hours. But what really made the experience special was the owners. They were so friendly and welcoming - it really added to the overall atmosphere of the place. And the presentation was on point - it looked almost too pretty to eat!

Kings deli was amazing! My husband and I went there and ordered two variations of sandwiches and they were both very delicious. The potato salad is to die for! Staff was also super friendly and the deli is owned by a really sweet and kind local couple. If you eat here, You will also be supporting a black owned business. I highly recommend kings deli!

Solid spot in Burbank for deli style sandwiches, with a bit of a neighborhood vibe. It's small and there is a tiny panini press, so it does take a little bit of time, depending on the amount of business they are doing, but service is very friendly and helpful. We got a Brisket Melt and a Top Shelf Turkey and enjoyed both. They came with a small potato salad a pickles. Maybe a bit too salty, but they still tasted great.

Drive over the hill into Burbank and you'll pass by some iconic landmarks. As you cruise down Barham Boulevard you'll pass Forest Lawn...Universal Studios...the LA "River"...and eventually Warner Brothers Studio. When you see the giant posters of the shows being filmed on the lot, the road curves. If you hang a slight left, you'll find one of LA's best sandwiches...blink and you'll miss it. When I think of a deli, I don't think of just any sandwich. Sure they can make just about anything you want between two slices of bread as long as it's on the menu, but I judge any place that calls itself a deli on a couple basic things: pastrami and corned beef. Unfortunately, Burbank is kind of a black hole for these comforting sandwich meats. There are places that serve corned beef and/or pastrami sandwiches...but they're not a corned beef and/or pastrami sandwich from a deli. Sliced smoked/cured meats...piled high on some rye bread...mustard is always welcome and if you feel like it, maybe a slice of cheese to add to the caloric value. One of the best sandwiches ever is the Rueben. A perfect blend of salty, sweet, savory, and sour. For me, the rye bread has to be perfectly toasted and the inside is a tender, hot gooey mess of sauerkraut, melted cheese, and Russian dressing. The "Kings Rueben" is all of the above. It's the kind of sandwich you might regret eating in one sitting, but you'll enjoy the rest of your day. I do recommend eating your rueben there, if possible, cause it does not travel well. During the pandemic, Kings Deli was one of the places I'd order from and we'd take it back home...the rueben was still good, but nothing compares to when it comes hot off the panini press. As for their other offerings, like I said earlier, you can't go wrong with a roast beef, turkey, or a tuna melt, but I always stick to my usual three sandwiches here. If you're adventurous, try to the Al Montoya. For years I wondered why they named a panini pressed ham sandwich with pickles, mustard, mayo, and Swiss cheese after a back up NHL goalie...turns out he's of Cuban descent...oh, it's a Cuban sandwich. That was also the moment I realized the people here are hockey fans and the name shares a font with another popular Kings franchise in the region. For all their pros, there are a couple cons to Kings Deli. The sides aren't great here...but they aren't bad either. It's your standard deli sides or coleslaw or potato salad. They're a bit mayo-ey for my tastes, but the potato salad has a nice tang and the cole slaw can be great in a sandwich to add some texture to every bite. The only other downside here is the parking. It's pretty easy to miss this place since it's a tiny restaurant in the middle of the hustle and bustle of a Hollywood studio and tucked away in between residential buildings. If you're not heading south down Pass Ave. then you're probably gonna need to make a U-turn to park on the same side of the street...if you can find a spot. On some days, the lunchtime rush makes this impossible, but there's parking somewhere in the neighborhood, you just gotta find it. Luckily it's a nice stretch of town where a walk is welcome...and if you're too full from your delicious sandwich, then enjoy a nice day.

Located right across from the studios and convenient for me at the time, this small sandwich atop was the go to for a meal to go. 3 people working and hustling to take and fill orders. My turkey sandwich was good. Had all the basics but nothing memorable to it. 30 mins from walking in to walking out was a little long. Fairly high price point for a basic sandwich and mini side of potato salad or coleslaw. A few spaces to park in front. Some indoor and outdoor seating available. I'd go again for convenience, just not out of my way.

I had high hopes for this deli after reading the buzz on Google and yelp, but sadly, it fell VERY short of expectations. Worst part was the sandwich was $22 and they had the audacity to ask for a tip - lol. The service is painfully slow; it took 35 minutes just to get a sandwich around 1pm. The staff left all 10 people in the restaurant waiting while they prioritized a local production company's 50+ sandwich order. A sheriff was also complaining about how his food took over 45 minutes to come out. When we asked where our food was, the guy in the back was really passive aggressive and said it would be 4 more minutes - it was 10. When the sandwiches finally arrived, it was equally disappointing. My roast beef sandwich, which looked appealing from photos, was lackluster with meat that tasted more like it was from a package than freshly sliced from the deli counter. The bread had odd particles on it almost as if it had been rubbed against fleece or some other material. To make matters worse, the veggies on my sandwich were spoiled and had a huge black spot on it. My boyfriend hated his brisket panini but wouldn't let me bring it back to the counter for a refund/replacement considering how long it took. Overall, the experience was horrible and the food was underwhelming. I don't plan on returning and wouldn't recommend this place when there are so many better options under $15 available.

I have been SEARCHING for a good bagel sammie in Burbank and have not found one until I got one at Kings Deli today. Absolutely delicious - the amount of each component of the sandwich was PERFECT. Sometimes at other places when you order a sandwich it's like 90% bacon or onion or lettuce but this time everything was perfectly balanced!!! Also love that they put salt and pepper on the tomatoes. I ordered ahead 5 min before I got to the shop and it was already ready when I got there. 10/10 and will definitely come back to try other sandwiches!!

Kings Reuben - Phenomenal sandwich. Loved the flavor of the pastrami and the slaw. I would definitely come back to try some of their other sandwiches.

Very clean in the dining room and what I can see behind the counter. My sandwich doesn't have enough corned beef because I'm still very hungry. I love mustard and it's so delicious. The LBC Root Beer has a twist off cap which is another star lol. The bread is very tasty. The music playing is great. Found parking a block away.

Nooooooo, where did King's go?!!!! They had the best sandwiches. I'm so sad. I wish more people knew about them. I assume that the studio clientele disappeared after the strike. Yikes, can't count on anything anymore.

So, If I'm going to post a review it has to be based on other deli's I have eaten at in the past! This place was fair, not better than Jerry's Deli (when it was open) certainly not better than Langer's near McArthur Park in K-Town. A sold 3:5

We love going to talk shows to be in the audience. The wait can be long from parking to actual check in, so we knew we wanted food. A quick search lead us to Kings Deli and we are so glad it did! Easy to order online and schedule pick up, though they have never been ready at the time they say, it's always 5-10 minutes after, but that's okay, we know now and plan accordingly. The staff inside are amazing. So nice. Real nice. They will chit chat with you while you wait, and even offer you water. The sandwiches. So. Good. Truly. We've gotten a few now, but my favorite is turkey and bacon on sourdough with pepper Jack. They don't skimp on the toppings and while a little pricey, I feel like it's packed with enough meat to make it worth it. I love the choice of sides and alternate between kettle chips and their potato salad. We will for sure be back and will keep recommending it to everyone!

See, this is exactly why I love YELP! Hubs and I were looking for a place to grab a quick bite, saw the reviews on Yelp and decided to check them out. We're both really glad we did. The sandwiches were A+ for quality and price. Fresh produce, fresh bread, fresh coffee, tea and sides. I had the veggie on a roll, he had the classic brisket. We will for sure be back. Quaint. Oh and the customer service was A+. Everyone, literally everyone there, was super nice and friendly.

First off, awesome staff. They were so helpful and friendly. I ordered a king Ruben. It was so good as well as the potato salad. It's a cut little shop. I personally can't wait to try a different sandwich. Ambiance bright and airy.

Favorite Deli in the Valley! Food is fabulous! Indoor and outdoor seating! Quality is 10/10

First time trying this place out as it's come up many times on my Yelp. Staff was good but seemed new. Ordered the classic pastrami and although it tasted good, it's overpriced. For $15, it's just not enough meat. I don't mind paying but I wanna get what I paid for. I am still hungry Another thing, the pastrami is so fatty. It's not trimmed at all. But it seems like a it's good quality. Just zoom into the pic. Cole slaw was better than potato salad but I wouldn't get either next time. Choose chips if you go

AMAZING. The service was top notch, so friendly and gave great options. Ambiance is quaint. Bathroom clean. Food phenomenal. Great gluten free options. Would recommend turkey or tuna sandwhich!

Was looking for a good sandwich and this was perfect! Easy to order online and pick up. The person working seemed very friendly when I went to pick it up. Would definitely get a sandwich from here again.

Probably best Jewish deli in Los Angeles. They use the same meat provider as the renowned Brent's, but I prefer the King's Deli sandwiches. I went in person after always ordering from UberEats and they had the extra friendliness which is not needed because the food is so good, but is also super welcome. Truly among the best in the area.

So happy to find this place! We just had the most amazing & delicious Pastrami and Brisket sandwiches. Oh and the pickles! - really fresh & crisp. Sandwiches come with a very small side of coleslaw or potato salad, we had one of each and they were yummy. Super friendly and accommodating service. Order at the counter and they bring your lunch to your table. Kind of a small place but they have a big beautiful window with seating inside and outside.

3-4 stars! Recently visited the Warner Brothers studios and this deli is just about 5 min away. Pretty good Lox bagels but wasn't to die for. Had delicious large piece of salmon, along with big pieces of tomatoes and many capers on top; usually comes with onion but we ordered without. The everything bagel I ordered it on did not taste like "everything" like I'm used to... basically a bland everything bagel. Each bagel was $15 which I felt like was pricey. Almost $50 for 2 lox bagels and a Greek salad. Service was very friendly for the most part, some employees friendlier than others. Pretty small shop with few tables outside.

Cozy deli with indoor seating and a few tables outside. Friendly service. Had the Rebound roast beef, very good. A little pricey but then quality ain't cheap. Would return!

Good sandwiches, very friendly staff. Near Warner Brothers studio. Small sandwich shop

Mediocre at best for the price. If the sandwiches were less money I could understand but $15-$17 for a small basic sandwich is not appropriate or appealing. We ordered the pastrami and the brisket sandwiches. The pastrami was pathetically slim on meat as was the brisket along with the brisket tasting like over cooked roast beef and the bun on the brisket had mild on the bottom. I mean I get it, bread goes moldy and it ain't gonna kill you but still, standards and practices... The price point is prohibitive for the amount you get. The flavors are not enough to warrant a repeat visit. The staff was very nice although service was a bit slow and we were the only ones here.

I've never dined in, but I take out often. The staff is fantastic. Exactly the kind of neighborhood spot you'd expect. Friendly, welcoming and always remember me. I love going for breakfast. Their pastrami is delicious and their coffee tasty. I will always come back here.

My favorite sandwich shop in Burbank. They do not slack on their ingredients, and you really get what you pay for. The employees are always so nice and accommodating, I will never stop recommending this place!

Our favorite pastrami sandwich shop! So much meat, so satisfying ~ The service is always very welcoming. Love to come here.

Very disappointed to hear your sandwiches are no longer available. Best deli sandwich I've ever had and I will forever be on quest to find a comparable one. Good luck in the future

I love King's Deli! What a fantastic spot for a phenomenal sandwich! I cannot WAIT to come again!

I love the sandwiches here! The owners are fantastic and give great care into the food and experience. The variety is exceptional, but my favorite is the Kings club. I always feel welcomed when walking in, the store is extremely clean, and I'm satisfied every time!

Best pastrami in this side of town! Look no further. Bagels are good too. Please add pumpernickel bread to the menu.

The food and service was great. I was there to have lunch before going to a taping of Night Court at Warner Brothers Studio. I had a Ruben Sandwich . They were out of corned beef ,so she recommended Pastrami and it was absolutely delicious..

Went here for the first time today, was it terrible no? Was it great? No. Was there any reason in the world an incredibly average Reuben a just as average Turkey melt and two sodas should cost 55 dollars after an 18 percent tip? No way in god's green earth.

I've lived in LA my entire life, and I genuinely believe King's Deli has some of the best sandwiches in the city. A must have if you are looking for a great lunch or breakfast in Burbank.

Super satisfying deli sandwiches and delicious sides. I came here wanting some big flavors and was not disappointed. Heavy, but less than some total overload places.

Soooo good! I love this deli. You can tell there is an attention to detail here. The meat melts in your mouth, the bread is soft and fresh, the condiments add such good flavor. The staff are so nice and friendly. This place truly is a gem

Came here while waiting to see if we make into stand by for the Ellen show. Service was very good. Helpful with deciding what to order. A customer (probably a regular) said the bagel breakfast sandwiches are good. I had already had a bagel so went for a lunch option and ordered the Caprese sandwich, and I got it panini pressed, OMG it was amazing! Mozzarella was so fresh and the pesto sauce on it was delicious My daughter ordered the brisket melt, she said it was also amazing and is already planning when she's coming back! Place is small, limited seating but we found seating no problem, there are also a few tables outside.

Tried the Turkey Melt sandwich and really enjoyed it! Also got the plain bagel with cream cheese and as someone from NYC, had to say it was decent at best. Great place, highly recommended for the Turkey Melt!

We were craving a deli style pastrami sandwich and I remembered this place. THANK GOD we decided to try them!! Not a huge deli, cozy if you want to sit inside or sidewalk. Staff was beyond nice but the food was amazing! We ordered the lunch box special for two that comes with two like sandwiches, huge delicious green salad, two side salad of coleslaw or potato salad, sliced deli pickles and two soft drinks. Needless to say we could not finish it. The quality and portion of the pastrami was incredible. Everything else was perfect as well and DEFINITELY will be our regular deli now. A must try when in the Burbank area...

Great local deli located in Burbank near movie studios and lots of other shops and eateries. Delicious made to order sandwiches and friendly service. They are still open during the pandemic. I placed a walk in order and once it was ready they brought it out to my car. The establishment is nice and clean and I was welcomed with a warm greeting. I got a classic turkey sandwich which was made with fresh bread and perfectly layered with the meat and veggies. Highly recommended of you're looking for freshly made sandwiches and other deli favorites.

The sandwiches here are amazing, on this visit I ordered a salad with tuna and did not disappoint. I will definitely come back.

Although the staff was pleasant I gotta say I was really disappointed with the food. $24 Small ice tea and a sandwich. So not a Value. But I'm thinking this is gonna be great..... it wasn't. Honestly I've had more delicious sandwiches that were wrapped in plastic in a vending machine. It looked Like they slapped together a sandwich in a hurry or a wind storm . At best it was a c- Maybe they had an off day based upon other reviews. With the amount of other options available I can't risk trying again Proceed with low expectations.

Such a cute find! I highly recommend the Turkey Melt, potato salad & pickles. Did I say potato salad?! It's amazing! I'll definitely be back.

The customer service and delicious sandwiches are always top notch! Although their lunch sandwiches are always good I, Recently, got their breakfast option and I must say that I will be coming in for breakfast and lunch whenever I find myself hungry at work. Their coffee is also a great addition (obviously). Thank you Audrey! You're the best!

Take to long to serve you food even if u walked in on not busy hours. Don't want to say race was involved with how long it took but the caucasians that came In after me sure did get there food before me. As well as there is not one sign inside the establishment that says they take 30 mins to prepare prepared food already. Unacceptable

Pastrami Sandwich - overly fatty meat on a sandwich?? Relatively flavorless sandwich and coleslaw is just cabbage with vague flavor but no seasonings - not even celery seed! Mediocre at best. Terrible value for the price of the sandwich and the calories.

Went here yesterday and ordered the kings corned beach sandwich. It was very good. A bit on the small side for a sandwich that is twenty dollars and change. Without a drink or chips. I would return but there are cheaper options that are just as good.

I had my coworkers pick up a classic brisket sandwich for me yesterday. The bread was wrong but I figured that might have been my friend's mistake. However, the meat was super chewy, like jerky chewy. I've had their brisket before and always thought it was good. When I really looked at the meat I realized they sliced the brisket with the grain. I hope it was a one off & that they haven't changed the process.

DELICIOUS! So much so that we ate all the food before I remembered to take pics. . Easy online ordering, food was fresh and ready to go right when I arrived. We had the turkey melt & king's club, every component of the sandwiches was combined perfectly. The extra pickles on the side was the perfect touch. Not much parking, primarily street parking but I got lucky and was able to park right out front. Support Black owned businesses!

I really wanted to like this place but I'm feeling cheated out of my money! The Potato Salad was absolutely amazing so with my second order I had ordered a larger size! I had ordered the Pastrami on Rye with Double Meat which is $3 extra but I Got my sandwich and there wasn't double meat! The second time I had ordered it was the classic Cornbeef with Double meat which is $3 extra but I Got my sandwich and there wasn't double meat! I'm from the East coast so Deli Sandwiches is part of the culture so I know about NY Style sandwiches and this definitely not New York style nor DOUBLE meat as you can see from the pictures. If had not added $3 Double meat would I have gotten three Slices of meat on the sandwich? The overall taste of the sandwich was average so nothing out of the ordinary! Mostly like I won't be ordering from them again because they've cheated me twice out of what I had paid for!

Had a ostracized to go and it was amazing. Sandwiches are getting more expensive so you'll pay about 23 bucks for a stacked sando but it's worth it.
