Best Pastrami Sandwich on Long Island

by Best Of Long Island on January 5, 2010

There is nothing like a stacked high pastrami on rye. And here are the best places on Long Island to get it.

Long Islanders Voted Ben’s Kosher Delicatessen Best Pastrami Sandwich on Long Island!

Ben’s Kosher Delicatessen
Multiple locations

Order it like an old-timer; sliced thin, but not too thin. Not too fatty but not too lean, and piled so high on rye that you’ll have to stretch your mouth around. Lucky for Long Islanders, when Jewish delis are disappearing as quickly as analog TVs, quality pastrami like this is only a short schlep away.

2nd Place - Pastrami King, 196 Merrick Rd., Merrick. 516-377-4300. www.pastramiking.com

With their sliced meat filled sandwiches, Pastrami King is a great location to go for those craving a great deli meat sandwich. Pastrami King is located off of Merrick road in Merrick and satisfies all of those looking for that old New York neighborhood taste.

3rd Place – Zan’s Kosher Deli, 135 Alexander Ave., Lake Grove. 631-979-8770. www.zansdeli.com

If you’re ever in the mood for that perfect kosher Pastrami sandwich then Zan’s Kosher Deli is the place for you. They feature their towering Pastrami sandwiches that keep their loyal customers in awe and coming back for more

Zan’s is by far the worst Kosher deli I’ve ever eaten. Terrible. I don’t understand how it gets a rating of # 3. Pastrami from the deli section of your local supermarket is better. Who made this list???

Do you want the best pastrami on long island? Try Pastrami N Friends in Commack. I had a pastrami and corned beef combo sandwich with a friend from Texas (and man this guy can eat) and must say this was the best sandwich we have ever had. My friend actually ordered a second to take back to his wife in the hotel at which they were staying.

Check out their website at http://www.pastraminfriends.com

You will be glad you did!

Its not close sorry guys but Lido Kosher in Long Beach is best by far. I have heard and want to try a place in Wilston Park I have heard about. Ben’s is overrated, Pastrami King is so hit and miss usually a miss, Zan’s never been too.
