Very delicious!

by supersol

I had dinner there this past weekend.....service, food and decor was great. Everything on the menu that my group tried was delicious. I especially enjoyed the dessert (my group had an animated argument over which dessert was the yummiest....they are all great but I particularly enjoyed the bread pudding).

The wait staff is charming, and the restaurant has been tastefully designed to exude an old world charm. I look forward to returning soon with my husband!

Best Deli In new York

by sharonwest999

I think that years ago the famed deli's in New York were great, but I also think that for the most part that they rest on their laurels. Well they better watch out because Lansky's has arrived on the scene, and this place in a few short months has surpassed the food in all the rest. I found the sandwiches to be oversized, juicy and delicious. Where Lansky's far surpasses the rest is with the food from the kitchen. The burger is the best in New York, and at under 6 buck, best bargin. The matzoh ball soup is great, thick with noodles, vegetables, chicken meat and two light, fluffy matzoh ball. The do a hot dog like no other, it is a foot long and deep fried. They offer it with a large variety of toppings, I tried jalapeno, chili, and cheddar, delicious and not for the faint of heart. I just love their macaroni and cheese, creamy and full of real cheese flavor. Save room for dessert, banana pudding is to die for. Last but not least, they actually have a really nice selection of wines by the glass, and unlike other deli's, the wines are really good and very fairly priced. Love Lansky's.

Its Cold Outside...And I found the Best Soup in Town!!!

by bettyz414

Its 16 degrees outside, and I am in serious need of hot soup to warm my bones. I headed over to Lansky's, a new "Jewish" style deli and picked up a quart of theri "Jewish penicilin", their matzoh ball soup is the best soup in the city, with no peers. It is thick with noodles, vegetables, chicken mear ( yes I said real chiciken meat!) and two large matzho ball. This soup really wamrs the heart, and the tummy too.

Everything I have tried here is great. The brunch has become the best on the Upper West Side. The burgers are as good as any in the city.

the best unsung dessert on the menu is the banana pudding, scrumptious!!!!

This place is warm and welcoming, and the prices are the best in the city, come to Lansky's....its like coming home.

• Pros: Best Matzoh Ball in the City
• Cons: Big...Big portions
