| - Woohoo! As good as it gets!....this is what Yelp has for 5 star reviews and I can say without a doubt that Weiss Deli is still as good as it gets all these years later. Actually, I probably like it more now than I did when I reviewed it back in 2014. My pallet has become quite a bit more sophisticated. The fact that in my last review I ordered a cinnamon raisin bagel just makes me shake my head.
So my go-to breakfast item is the MOTHER OF ALL HASH. Traditional corned beef hash that is so good that even my son, who has all of 19 months of lifes experience, loves it. In fact, he loves EVERYTHING here. He even eats the Eggs Nova Scotia that my wife regularly orders which includes salmon and capers. He eats like it's the last supper at Weiss, it's incredible. Much like his pappy he also loves the matzoh ball soup. It's dynamite. Sometimes we'll get a to-go order of matzoh ball soup, two everything or onion bagels, then a load of their chive cream cheese, which is life changing.
Back to the hash. It's crispy and savory. The poached eggs are always, always, always cooked to perfection. Once in a while the bagels will be a tad overcooked, even then they are amazing. Still my favorite bagel I've ever had. That chive cream cheese, if you are a fan of onion, is an absolute must. The flavor infused in there is just incredible, and they always give you a generous amount. There is a $.95 upgrade for it, but it's money very well spent.
Their service is also incredible too. Very nice servers, the bussers are incredibly attentive and I've never have issues getting refills of coffee or iced tea. They even bring out fruit early for my little man knowing that kids often get fussy when they don't have food 37 seconds after they sit down. The thoughtfulness is always very much appreciated.
If there is one place you visit for breakfast in this city I'd make this the place, it's that good. Waits are never that bad either for as busy as it is. After typing this review I feel like a need to go back to Weiss for lunch.
