Review of Katz's Deli

Fantastic but intimidating. When I first walked in, I saw a massive crowd. It was not immediately clear what needed to be done to get food, but there's so much activity and so many people that I hated to hold still and figure it out.
The hostess splits newcomers into people who are waiting for tables, and people who are going to walk up to the deli counter and order themselves (and then try to find seating).
I opted for a table, just to get the time to figure out the system.
My friend and I we're seated at a table for six, with two strangers. Hello new friends!
Our server was knowledgeable and attentive, and checked in VERY often with updates on our food, refills, and other items.
Food came quickly, and was delicious! Pastrami sandwich was amazing, latkes (which I've never had before) were very good - and I'd order it again, and we split a hot dog with sauerkraut that was quite tasty.
Definitely glad we stopped. I am stuffed with meat and potatoes.
