Pastrami King Incorporated - Merrick

I always make sure to stop by this place whenever I'm in Merrick, Long Island. The sandwiches are packed with flavor and absolutely delicious! The owner is actively working alongside the staff, who are all incredibly friendly and welcoming. I truly love this restaurant!

This restaurant is fantastic! They offer potato knishes, spinach knishes, and of course, pastrami knishes—all of which are definitely worth trying. The staff are really kind people. When we realized something was missing from our order, a man came out and informed us in the parking lot. We returned, and they generously gave us a special treat for the oversight. It's definitely a place worth visiting!

We ordered pastrami on rye, and the pastrami was abundant and sliced thin. I had the matzo ball soup, which was delicious. The grilled chicken salad I tried was also very good. Overall, I'm very grateful for the meal.

Pastrami Sandwich (very generous portion) was excellent. Beef barley soup also excellent. Stay away from potato pancakes. The pancakes were hard, greasy and had very little taste. They didn't do anything for my pallet.

I had to try this place because a friend said it was the best pastrami he had on Long Island. So, I drive 15 miles to check it out. The owner Joe happened to be nearby and he walked me through my choices. I settled on a classic combination sandwich; pastrami and corned-beef on rye, a potato knish (baked), a hot cherry pepper and a couple of sweet and sour pickles. Cream soda to wash it down. MAN!! What a meal. The pastrami and corn beef was awesome (I nearly bit my finger on one of the bites). I will be back ...
