There portions are tremendous, and the food is outstanding. It is decorated with all movie posters, playbills and caricatures. Authentic New York delicatessen food, feels like you are in manhattan.

Food is great and the portions are NY style. If your having a deli sandwich my recommendation is to split it and leave room for some NY Cheesecake.

This place is well located, they have an ample room for you to sit. Classic NY deli, with all varieties available. Sandwich sizes are generous, excellent pastrami and turkey pastrami. The carrot cake is amazing. It is pricy, more than NYC.

Man or his food....where do you start when your overwhelmed by both. Ziggy is one of the most dedicated and passionate men in the Houston food arena. He is a perfectionist in every phase of the customer experience....since he has opened at this location he has the same staff. Stop! In the food industry turnover is the biggest issue. Not... More

They had my mother;s potato salad dressing; the reubens were to die for and we couldn't even touch the desserts! Reminded me of the great delis in Philadelphia & New Jersey. Aaahhh.....

It's a definite must visit if you want to have great time with your friends. Lots of fun reading the menu, excellent choice, large portions. Have to say the food is good, but perhaps not amazing. However the choice is great, so i might have been unlucky. it gets pretty busy during lunch-time and evening, so think in advance...
