This spot serves up delicious halal pastrami , it has a signature mix of sweet & spice, and with a sizable “small” selling for only $8, it’s a crazy-good deal. Order the killer Reuben sandwich . Read more

Umair Zia

So damn good. A great alternative to Katz or 2nd Ave Deli if you are (or live) in Brooklyn. No crowds, delicious bountiful Jewish deli style sandwiches , for half the price of the big names

First We Feast

This exemplary Jewish deli is run by Yemeni Muslims with Brooklyn accents, and we'd go so far as to say it's Bed-Stuy’s greatest hidden gem . Read more

Thibault Lemaitre

Can’t go wrong with the Brisket or Patrami sandwhich

Deb Wunder

The corned beef/brisket combo is amazing. Also, the fries were perfectly done - crispy on the outside, NOT mushy on the inside. And the fellow at the counter was as niceas could be.

Daveed Buzaglo

Some of the best deli I’ve had in the city , no gimmicks or shtick, just straight up great deli !

Ethan

Non-negotiable: you have gravy with your brisket sandwich . Also the pastrami is insanely juicy and delicious. I’ll never go back to Katz’s.

David W

Pastrami is lean, on the dryer side, but really nicely spiced. A solid pastrami sandwich ! Pickles are great too.

Mike Friedman

David's Brisket House in Bed-Stuy is one of those hole-in-the-wall-but-really-good-at-one-thing type of NYC restaurants . Delish.

Kim Boothe

Brisket droll is a thing and it happens both before and after you eat some of the best brisket . They provided the brisket , me the droll! Worth it!!!!

Only in NY. A Muslim-run Jewish deli . GOOD pastrami and their Brooklyn Cheesesteak is made with brisket . A Bed-Stuy gem.

Cole Kennedy

The prices have jumped up ($12 for a regular), and there's no longer a small option. The pastrami is still killer, though.

David Solimano

Excellent cured meats and everything that goes with it. The ruben is superb.

Serious Eats

A Jewish deli institution now operated by Muslims. Great brisket and pastrami : tender, full bodied, and resoundingly rich.

Erica

I went here one time a year and a half ago and I wasn't that impressed. Walking in today has totally changed my mind, they fixed the place up a bit. The pastrami was amazing!

Marlon P.

The Pastrami on Rye is da bomb. Try also the brisket and or the corned beef on rye with mustard . They also never ever disappoint.

Kimmie Ohh

Get the pastrami & corned beef combo sandwich !

Sam Gil

Brisket is really good. Better than Katz overall, but they only charge more for the history. Nicer to get takeaway .

First We Feast

Ask for your sandwich with a side of brisket-drippings gravy , just to gild the sandwich lily. Read more

The prices seem unreasonable for its venue atmosphere and location but I must say, the brisket I had was amazing.

Will Donovan

Brisket is amazing. Greasy spoon but friendly staff and never more than five minute wait for your sandwich .

Rachel W.

Delicious pastrami (and brisket !) for a 1/3 of the price of Katz's. The small is more than enough food.

Zina Alam

Best place for pastrami / deli meats - i think its better than Katz 's.

Real Cheap Eats

"These sandwiches rival any in town . Order up the pastrami and no one will bat an eye if you have it on white bread with mayo . Even the “small” ($6) will ensure a full stomach." Read more

I've had better corn beef in Michigan. I respect the heritage but I would go back.

Joe Jaffe

Things always seem to be a little hectic or f*cked up for one reason or another at this location, but the food is always great.

Alex Still

Legit corned beef/pastrami/brisket joint. Like Katz’s legit.
