Imo she had already made her decision so there was no point of the video.
i think you are overthinking this
She's annoying
I have to agree, she was not impartial when reviewing.
next time let her wait outside or wash the dishes 😂
she looked at the bread and decided....right, no bias there
She’s totally biased. Not the right person to bring along. You needed to bring someone that has never been to either.
As someone who grew up eating at Katz' once or twice a month, I can assure you, that's where real Jews went...not truckers or tourists!!!! I can't speak to it today, but back then, no one was better, Carnegie was for tourists. The Lower East Side was where we went on those treasured Sundays!!!! BTW I loathe pickles, but I can smell the "Nickel a pickle guy."
And did you notice the Pastrami was double the size at Katz'?? PS as for today, this woman's bias and whining destroyed this video. I don't know who makes the best today, but given she was insulting Katz before she sat down, she rendered this useless. Guess I'll have to find out myself, hopefully next year!
He should’ve done this alone lol
Jamie is such a vibe, love it. While Katz has a ton of tourists and big lines I do genuinely think the pastrami itself can not be beat. I've had them all. The trick with Katz is order a full sandwich but take off half the pastrami and bring it home. I think it makes the bread to meat ratio better. Get some rye bread and you've easily got 2 sandwiches, maybe even 3 light ones.
so smart!
I won’t take any advice from someone who eats a great sandwich with a fork you are knowledgeable she seems like she’s trying to put everything down
2nd ave is kosher, Katz's not. No tourist at 2nd ave; and the pastrami not fatty, not lean is heaven. The crowd at 2nd ave are the real deal in deli eaters, and with the personalities to match, my opnion, no better in the city and a must for real deli appreciation..
fair!!
I don't know any Orthodox Jews who would eat at Second Avenue Deli. It could be described as "kiddie kosher". 😀
Katz's when you ask for the fatty Pastrami beats anything, including the old Carnegie. Send a salami to your boy in Army!
This had to have been a 2 day Food Experience....ALL THE FOOD LOOKS AMAZING. NICE JOB.
lol we did it back to back
Damn want a pastrami sandwich now
The truth!
Totally agree that 2nd Avenue Deli has much better rye, and is the more comfortable place to dine. They also have much better Jewish Staples. That said, don't order the hot dog from the 2nd Avenue Deli...it's terrible.
Katz's is a better value if you want to share a sandwich, which is larger. If you catch Sarge's on a good day, their sandwiches are better than 2nd Avenue Deli and Katz's.
I also agree that the salt content at Katz's is inexcusable. Spot-on!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
don't think you get good pastrami and focus on the rye
Love what you do! Next time you're in Toronto, you should hit up Centre Street Deli and the last surviving OG TO deli Pancers.
thank you!! i need to!
Honorable mentions: Attman's in Baltimore and Famous 4th Street Deli in Philadelphia. Sadly Wolfies, the Rascal House, and Pumpernicks in Miami are gone.
thanks!
There is no doubt in my mind that 2nd Ave. is superior to Katz's because it is Kosher and the products served whether soup or sandwiches have the homemade feeling and taste. In addition, 2nd Ave. has a delicacy to their products. Their pastrami, corned beef, brisket and chicken in the pot are superb. They also offer seeded, seedless and pumpernickel bread, which enhances the foods. Katz's is good but not 2nd Ave. Katz's does have an excellent knobblewurst, (garlic) frankfurter. I'll stake my name and claim on the above statements and I'm a born and raised New Yorker.
In Cleveland there is one place to get a real Pastrami sandwich, one. Joe's Deli. Not the Lakewood Joe's on Madison Ave and W 117th, the River Joe's on Hilliard and Wooster. Everything in my heart tells me if I'm in New York I gotta go to 2nd Ave Deli for the real Jewish Delicatessen setup. I'll try it all till I'm bursting at the seams from food
Joe's is the best! Miss it!
I have to say, I'm a 63 year old jew (not conservative) from long Island. Katz was on my bucket list for years. Had it a couple of weeks ago. Wasn't super impressed. Not such a big fan of the thick cut. Going to try 2nd Ave as soon as I can. Need a good Jewish deli on the island!!
try Lido in long beach really good kosher deli
Dang, I hope you never do another review with her. Talk about a biased “Debbie Downer" review.
She has her favorite. 😊
I thought she was delightful.
Katz's vs 2AD=Yankees vs Mets, Jay-z vs Nas. I'm old School Avenue D and East 10th. I used to walk to both. I love 2nd ave but I'm a Katz's. Also, Jaime said Katz and not Katz's. I sense bias 😂
hahaha a touch of bias there
I from the west coast (East LA) and of Mexican descent. My father and grandfather were meat cutters (butchers if you prefer) and I grew up eating good food. I swear to you, that if had to choose my last meal, it would be A couple of corned beef sandwiches on Jewish rye with RUSSIAN DRESSING (sorry). Damn, all that food looks so good.
CHEERS!!!
love it!!
Hello East LA, Lynwood here. I laughed when you said you father was a meat cutter, so was mine. I remember when he told me the difference between "Meat Cutter" and "Butcher", it makes scense. I hadn't been behind the counter for years and then one day I had the oppurtunity (Many years after my dad past way) to do so, the smell took me back to wonderful times with him. I still have his knives and stone., which I will never give up. Take care..
@kenwest6300 ahhh
Memories!!
Happy new year!!
Katz Deli the Best in New York my grandfather brought me there when I was a kid 9 years old I’m now 55 I live in Georgia every time I go back home that’s my first destination I go
There isn’t a trucker alive who’s paying $28 for a sandwich. Other than that, I love her.
I like both, but I do love Pastrami Queen on the UES. I would rank them Pastrami Queen, 2nd Avenue Deli, Katz.
I agree!
Please do a review of Sarge's, I enjoy Katz's, however, I prefer the meat to be cut thinner. I remember and miss Carnegie, they too sliced the meat thin.
Coming soon!
2d Ave Deli . . . the name rings a bell. I cant remember where it was. Im basically a New Yorker (22 years) and Id rather, after seeing this, do the whole Jewish experience. The Deli is much quieter, the pastrami is thinner and they dont pile on the salt.
I lived near Katz's in the 80s and there was no line. No truckers or tourists. You could buy heroin nearby. Kind of looked like a relic that would disappear with gentrification.
When I take my road trip, I will try both of them out but then again, I am not a heavy salt person.
Lol They decided this before going to either restaurant
First I have to say I make better corned beef and pastrami than both places. My matzo ball soup is better too. But when I am in the city I prefer Katz for soup and corned beef always.
Katz has been around since 1888, they must be doing something right. She wasnt going to like anything in Katz's. Im surprised she didnt complain about the napkings or the silverware.
There are a lot of tourist spots in NYC but katz is not one of those. It still has incredible pastrami and corned beef
I like Sarges ❤
might have to get back there!
I agree
both look awesome
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Next time make her do it blindfolded. If she refuses just leave her a home!
So glad I saw this video! I'm going to NY in a couple of weeks. First time in NY and I'm so excited! I had Katz on my agenda but replaced it with 2nd Ave Deli after watching this. Serving good quality meat on underwhelming Rye is a no-no for me. I'm also not big on salt so it sounds like I would appreciate the Matzo Ball Soup at 2nd Ave Deli over Katz. Looking forward to this!!
enjoy!!
@Jeremy Jacobowitz Thanks! Keep up the great video content! Thank you! Started following you! 😊
No don't do that I was a little boy going to katzs with my grandfather katzs is the best deli in the world get a hot dog a knish a hot pastrami sandwich what mustard and the dr. Brown's cream soda the atmosphere unbelievable you feel you're in a New York deli if you go to new York city and don't go to katzs it will be the biggest mistake you will ever make trust me that's the deli katzs
it feels like they cared about what they sell and still care. This is on my list to see.
Be prepared when you go to eat at a Jewish or Italian gathering! You will be fed, then fed some more, then even more! Good news is it's always good!
This is the first review I’ve watched where someone has trash talked Katz 😅 interesting perspective
Katz - hands down between the two but there are much better! Just go to Red Hook and that area has the best pastrami on delicious rye going! But for Jewish Delis I'd say I vastly prefer Katz's deli! Zabar's used to have a spectacular pastrami or corned beef on Rye. The store is now dirty and it turns me off. Overall for good meat and fish I go to Russ and Daughters!! They are a class act! Yes to Katz's and extra mustard and pickles please!! I eat this kind of food rarely as I care about good health! Lol! Great video!
you haven’t yet pastrami queen ? I’ve always been a big fan of the chicken in the pot at Second Avenue Deli. Huge value. Pastrami. Queens is even better than second Ave version.
Katz's pastrami is awesome, but I think Langer's, in Los Angeles, is better. The pastrami itself is close, but Langer's crusty rye takes it over the top.
I’m so hungry now 🤤
yess
2nd ave Deli is my favorite. The thinly sliced Pastrami makes for a better sandwich than katzs thick sliced.
Katz’s has had a problem with bread quality for years. I haven’t been to the 2nd ave deli since it was on 2nd ave but I always thought it was better
In my humble opinion, Sarge's Deli on 3rd Ave. is far better than Katz's or the 2nd Ave. Deli.
Is the meat Kosher ? Or you do mind if it is not ??
I went to both restaurants last week and ended up eating in 2nd Ave Deli because they offered Kosher pastrami while Katz did not. Katz was overcrowded with tourists though.
That might be the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen
what ?? no cole slaw and half sour pickles ??
We have Katz in Texas....monte cristo, open sandwiches, chicken and waffles......etc....she's not one to pay attention to regarding the review of Katz....u will miss out listening to her!
Bless her heart.
Address of the 2nd Ave. deli New York City
Surely if you give anyone alive $30 and say "make me 1 sandwich, use ALL the money" you're going to get a fucking amazing sandwich?
Schwart's in Montreal is good and affordable.
Montreal smoked meat is even better than pastrami and corned beef.
isn't she not technically Jewish enough to be saying these things if only her dad is Jewish?
more jewish than most people that have two parents that are jewish
Jeremy. Come to Montreal if you want the best smoke meat
Montreal Smoked Meat is the best !
Pretty sure the knishes are supplied by Gabilas in both places. Most places that serve square knishes use Gabilas, which is why you order the round knish to judge quality of knish. I prefer 2nd Ave. for several reasons. First, 2nd Ave. is actually Kosher unlike Katz, something you probably should have mentioned in the video. I prefer thin slice pastrami from 2nd Ave. because it's more traditional and consistent. It's also very tasty and juicy. Maybe you also didn't know, you can ask for fattier or leaner pastrami from 2nd Ave. and you always want to go fattier. The Matzoh Ball soup is much better at 2nd Ave. It's served with vegetables the way Matzoh Ball soup should be served. Katz's soup is like bad diner Matzoh ball. Potato salad and Coleslaw both better at 2nd Ave. I never had either Katz's or 2nd Ave, fries but I don't like thick cut fries, those are more like British chips than traditional fries and in this video, they looked under cooked. I always prefer skin on fries, like you get from Five Guys Burgers. Katz's is definitely good food but not sure it's worth the wait and definitely not sure about the price. They are doing way more volume that 2nd Ave., they use unkosher meat which is probably less than half the price of 2nd Ave. There's no reason it needs to be that expensive. The only reason it is, is because that's the price people are willing to pay, except not all of us are willing to fork over so much money for slightly lower quality food.
Woman was prejudiced from the get go. All i care is about the pastrami amd Katz's is hands down the best.
You're killing me here in Oregon, a virtual waste land for any Jewish deli food
One bite everybody knows the rules
2nd Ave deli 💯💯👍👍💪💪
I vote 2nd Ave.
If you noticed the meat cutters at Kate's are not all nice Jewish boys waiting to be moyels there Puerto Ricans
bro looks like he hasnt slept in 2 weeks
He’s in a food coma 😂
That girl sounds like a hater!!!!
Exactly
Total waste of watching to get an honest opinion. I’ve ate at both dozens of times. They are both great. Katz’s is full of New Yorkers as long as you don’t go on a Saturday at Noon.
You mean the real jewish go!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two losers in a dinner predict how not to work
huh?
Aww. He has to eat with tourists.....
Do you have to be Jew to visit 2nd Ave Deli?
the wonderful thing about judaism is that its no inclusive at all
Pastrami at Katz is stretches too much. Not even close to Carnegie.
hes annoyed that he has to eat with tourist, we'll im sure they are annoyed that they have to be filmed while they eat lunch lol jk....youre girl sounds like a handful!
New Yorkers...opinionated? How dare you! lol. It's in the NY Constitution to complain and be opinionated.
Does Jamie’s opinion only count as half? Jk
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Nah cuz y’all are wild💀
Ain’t nobody mentioned Israel. I agree with ur opinions, Israel does horrible things. But we are talking about a deli(food, sandwiches)
She's been paid off - so overly negative!! Loved the Fries?? what a fake -Bent on hating She's too salty
They should judge vegan /vegetarian food! This is a UA-camr video go wrong as its finest. This lady really drag him down. Please keep your day job
Nice photo. Stuffing your face with that homely visage and Arafat/ scraggly beard.
9:36 this Shiksa says she doesn't want be around truckers. Where does she think this food comes from? She thinks shes better than the people that bring it. And this cuckhold just went with it
shes a jew. and its a joke
She's a hater. Katz for da pastrami
Stop appropriating the food of my people to a cult. This is Ashkenazi food not a religious meal. You keep saying its Jewish food it is not. Please learn the difference between religion and race.
you dont understand what judaism is then... sad
Wolfies in miami beach is 100 percent better.......
Sorry, your partner is completely annoying and ruined your video. It’s one thing to have a strong opinion, but she takes it way too far and her personality is unpleasant. Not a fan of hers at all.
Katz better pastrami…the broad is annoying
free palestine
what does that have to do with a NYC sandwich?
That is a womens coat!
lol no. but send a message to JCrew with your concerns
