For a 'true taste of New York' try Ben's Deli. They not only specialize in deli sandwiches, but they have an extensive menu filled with goodies such as traditional favorites like chicken fricassee, stuffed cabbage, and potato pancakes. They can also grill up a juicy steak or if you're a health nut, try their salads and wraps. Whatever it is you're in the mood for, Ben's will leave you satisfied. Oh, and the decor is beautiful, so it's definitely a sight for sore eyes!

Went here last night before a show at the Garden and the service was laughably bad. I'm sure they were all capable staff, but the restaurant completely fell apart. One waitress (snails pace) and waiter (running around), 2 busboys (one competent, the other on parole), a manager (incredibly slow moving) and a hostess that refused to seat people due to her take-out orders job. As the restaurant was full, a line started to form, drinks were not received, orders were not placed, mustard not received, knish not warm, diners complaining, no clean glasses, no water on table, no russian dressing. The kitchen staff was called out to help the flow, but they were useless. 100 people in the restaurant, all complaining. It was amazing. Still, pastrimi and corned beef were great, but not worth the price-tag for some meat on two pieces of rye. Would definitely not go back.

Yet another place I've only gone to once. However, I really liked it here. It was the winter, I was sick, and I was looking to get some comfort food in my belly. I came here and got what I was seeking. I was pleased to see that the tables are first served a large platter of delicious pickles and a bowl of creamy cole slaw. Try the half-sour pickles, but not the pickled tomatoes (I haven't obtained that aquired taste yet). I ordered grilled knackwurst and a baked knish. By the end of the meal, I was stuffed. The bargain was great, but I did notice that the signature dishes and sandwiches were pretty pricey. I recommend trying out the cheaper stuff, as I did. It's sure to leave your stomach (and your wallet) full.
