Better than Schwartz's? Close. I went with the medium fat, old fashioned smoked meat sandwich. It was juicy, tender, and packed with flavors . Something that all good smoked meat should be like.
What I also love about this place are the historical achivements framed on the wall. It really does give it some sort of magical charm which is translated to its staff because my waitress was the kindest person ever.
If you don't want to wait in queue for a huge lineup at Schwartz's then Snowden Deli is a solid alternative.
