    Katz's is just such a fun place to go. All of their food is great. We always get our to go and eat it at our hotel or at home, when we are nearby. They have the nicest service. Everyone is so kind and they are fast. I don't think it is open late so give them a call. It can get crowded, but the wait is not bad and it is worth it. The place is just so cute and always a comfortable place to be. Whenever you are in town it really is a must stop. They have a tuna melt that is to die for and all of their sandwiches are the bomb. It if is deli food, they have it. It is always fresh and made to order. The place is kept ever so clean and prices are very fair. I could eat there everyday, but my doctor would not be happy. They also have great soups. They are all great. We have had them all. Their pastrami sandwiches are also very good and who does not love corned beef. Have a great time.

    Pastrami on seeded rye with mustard

    I am in love with this place. I have had this place bookmarked but because of only opening on weekdays I had not had an opportunity to try it until now I wanted to try the pastrami and corned beef and got both and tried all three sides - coleslaw, potato salad and macaroni salad . All sides weee food fresh tasting and the potatoes and macaroni in their respective sides not over cooked I really like both meats - I preferred the seeded rye which had cornmeal on the edge crust which gave it more texture and I love caraway The unseeded rye was too soft for me and I missed the caraway but the other person trying it liked it. The slices of bread and meat portions were large . This sandwich will fill you unless you have a gigantic appetite You also got pickle spears which were very tasty Service was very personable, and yes this sandwich does not get made lickety split because it's handcrafted with care Would definitely return - I was sad when I was done - in fact I had ai help me with a couple of haiku to express my feelings Pastrami vanished-- corned beef echoes linger on. Taste fades, sorrow stays. Hands gentle, precise-- a man builds quiet joy between two slices of bread.

    Lunch combo. Sandwich, side and pickles

    This is my type of place, and the reason I review on Yelp! My favorite places to visit and ones to give exposure to are the local gem mom and pop shops. To begin, this isn't easy to spot place from the street. It's located within a liquor store in the back corner. Within the deli, you will find two smiling warm faces that are eager to serve. I found myself ordering the popular pastrami sandwich and went with potato salad. While I was conversing and waiting, the gentleman made sure to have me sample the meat -- delicious! Once ready he reminded me of the half pound of meat inside. He wasn't kidding. Sandwich was loaded and delicious. Meat fell apart and had great flavor. The rye bread was seedless and I appreciated the simplicity. Good and in your face until the last bite. Pickles and potato salad were a nice side. Now I want to return for chili, matzo ball soup and a few other items. I will be back!!!

    Oh my! We have a local spot for thick cut pastrami sandwiches! To be fair, I liked Wexlers before they closed and the other Katz in New York is still the king in my mind, but nothing in LA seems to come close these days and I have been searching. LA is over run with thin sliced pastrami which is fine once in a while, but after visiting NYC again this past year I was on a mission to find decent thick cut pastrami and the Burbank Katz is the only one so far which deserves my repeat business. Service is very friendly, but plan to wait a few minutes for your sandwich as they are made to order. Parking seems to be street parking only, but wasn't too hard on a Friday afternoon around 1pm. Also tried their corned beef on rye which was pretty good as well, but the star is truly the pastrami. The only miss might be the salads. Tried potato and macaroni and both were avg at best. Seemed like the bulk store bought type, but don't let that take away from the sandwich experience. The final touch is the pickle which was divine and paired well with the sandwiches. Last but not meat is the chili. Very good and happy we tried it but next time it's pastramis all around and maybe a chili dog or lobster roll if timing works out :) Five star for LA pastrami, but would be four stars if comparing to OG :)

    Pastrami sandwich was good! Not salty or dry

    Cute mom & pop deli in a liquor store. Thought this was a chain from NY Kat'z Deli (so dry and salty when I had it in NY) but don't think it's the same place! I'm very picky when it comes to meaty sandwiches since it's usually so salty and dry.. not this place! Ordered two items and thought it was really good. Didn't have high expectations but we recommend! - pastrami sandwich 9/10! Not salty at all, tender and has that fatty umami meat flavor. Glad we picked the standard rye, similar to white bread - matzo ball soup 8/10 nice addition to the meal

    For years I have begged the gods for a Jewish style deli in Burbank. It didn't have to be great, it didn't have to be mind blowing good, just a place where you could get a corned beef or a pastrami on rye and a bowl of matzo ball soup. Finally, my prayers were answered. Katz's Deli is exactly what I wanted and it is great and it is mind blowingly good. I have found great food in all sorts of unusual places...but what are the odds I'd find another great sandwich spot in the back of a liquor store? Apparently high. Katz's (not to be confused with that one) is as hidden a hidden gem can get. Right next to the energy drinks and office supplies section of Village Liquor & Market, is a counter top where you can order some of the best food in town. The menu is simple, hot sandwiches like a Reuben or a tuna melt. Cold sandwiches like a chicken or turkey club. Their meats are apparently sourced from Burbank's own, RC Provisions, so even without taking a bite, I know it'll be good. The sandwiches come with your typical sides of coleslaw, potato salad, or mac salad...and of course, a pickle spear. Unfortunately, I was feeling under the weather and really couldn't eat a sandwich...but a bowl of matzo ball soup would be the perfect meal and it was. The larger size comes with two, almost baseball sized, matzo balls. To matzo ball aficionados, these are probably closer to floaters than sinkers, but there's still a nice bite to them. They soak in the rich broth, but don't get soggy. The broth has that schmaltzy taste to it where it's lip smacking good...and even though I drove back to the office, let it sit for a bit, then ate it...they were steaming hot til the last bite. They have a small pantry of things behind the counter and it looks like they make their soups from premade canned broth and a box mix, but even if that was the case, it was so damn comforting. Then you add in the little touches like tiny carrot medallions and the noodles, it was perfect. Fitting that a Katz's deli would leave someone smiling and satisfied. Katz's however is not faultless. Service is slow, but it's expected when everything is made to order. It is contrasted with wonderful people behind the counter who are working hard to get orders out. There's nowhere to sit while you wait or eat, it is strictly take out only given their setting. The prices are pretty steep too. Most of the sandwiches cost 20 bucks, which is a high price to pay for just meat in between bread...but that seems to be the going rate these days for quality, great food. I've paid that much for a sub par fast food meal, so at the end of the day it's worth it, but it just seems crazy that a corned beef sandwich and a bowl of matzo ball soup might cost as much as a steak dinner. I wish they were open on the weekends, but for now, their hours are 11-4, which tend to be the busiest hours on Olive Ave for parking. With all that said, this place is great and a welcome addition the neighborhood. It probably won't be a regular thing, but when my soul needs some nourishing and comforting food, this is definitely where I'll turn to.

    Pastrami sandwich

    Had the pastrami sandwich, it was delicious, pastrami was lean and very soft, loved it

    Currently a 'Best-Kept-Secret' tucked in the back corner of the Villiage Liquor store, they serve some delicious food! We got a Pastrami on rye, a Tuna Melt, and an Matzo Ball Soup and really enjoyed them. Tuna Melt was so tasty and we'd get it again in a heartbeat. The soup was delicious and such a treat since it's hard to find good matzo soup these days. Pastrami was delicious, but suffered from sub-par bread. Honestly, if they did a better rye... outstanding! Service was great! I'm guessing it's a 'mom n pop shop' and they were super nice! Unfortunately, no seating, so it's only take-away, but it's really good! Villiage Liquor has some nice wines, and is kind of a de facto Bodega. A little of everything.

    Pastrami on rye with mustard and mayo
    Jackson H.

    Deli is located inside a liquor store. The only downside was I waited about ten minutes in line and then had to wait another 25 for the sandwich, but maybe it was just a slow day. That being said, the food was delicious. I got the pastrami sandwich on rye with mayo and mustard. I've never had a pastrami sandwich before, so this was a first. Very tender, flavorful pastrami. Reminds me of BBQ I used to eat in the south with its flavor and juiciness. At first I thought $20 for a sandwich was a bit much, but honestly it was worth it. A very tasty meal. There are two tables outside for eating, actually a pretty nice spot on a sunny day to enjoy a meal. I'll definitely be back for more.

    Corned beef on rye
    Nik J.

    Stumbled upon this place, which opened only a few months ago. Very friendly mom and pop Jewish-style deli headed by the warm Sheldon and Mimi. Walking to their counter you feel like you found some sort of secret speakeasy. Sheldon has an infectious personality and it almost feels like he's welcoming you into his home, he oozed hospitality. He let us know for the brisket and corned beef, he uses the recipe of a 92-year-old Jewish woman he knew that didn't want her recipe to be lost to time and you can definitely taste it. He also steams his pastrami extra long to make sure it's extra soft. Sheldon also let us know he guarantees 8 oz of meat per sandwich so you get a bang for your buck. I got the corned beef and I thought it would be salty but it was actually perfect and very aromatic. The rye bread was super soft and didn't fall apart. The coleslaw was cold and refreshing, sweet but not too sweet. I hope that this place gets some traction!

    90% loved it: I was searching matzo ball soup and this came up. I've been eating matzo ball soup from inside my mothers belly before I was born and this made me smile as soon as I smelled it and a drop hit my tongue I knew I was in for a core memory to appear. It was delicious and I ordered the small and the matzo ball was huge and got bagel chips. I also ordered the corned beef sandwich because if it's on the menu I will order it. While I was waiting for my food I was offered a sample and you could tell on my face this piece had so much flavor. I found parking around the corner with plenty of shady spots. They don't have a place to sit just yet but soon they'll have somewhere to sit in the front of the shop. I highly recommend coming to the park a couple streets away and sitting in Mother Nature. Since the deli is in the liquor store you should support them too and buy a drink. I bought La Croix Lemon and it was the perfect drink to go with these flavors. Next time I go I think I'll ask for my corned beef to be sliced a little thinner but that's just how I like it. I can't stop licking my lips and thinking this meal had to be a dream. Why 90 and not a 100% well I didn't care for the seedless rye because I buy Russian and Jewish rye bread at the supermarket every time and their bread reminds me of white and it's tasteless. Once again I really did like the flavor of corned beef but the texture was tough and I had trouble biting it all the way through. I hand took it out of the sandwich and ate it like beef jerky. 3.5/5 stars: I'll try them again in a couple months and update my review. 1st of August 2025 next time maybe November or Early December.

    Katz's had been opened for about five months. No, they are not related to the world famous Katz Deli in NYC, but this is by far the best 'back-of-the-liquor-store-deli', I've ever been to. Katz's is a Ma & Pa, two-man (actually 1 man, 1 woman) operation. Ma takes the orders, preps the sides & such, and Pa prepares most of the food and runs the kitchen. The service is friendly all around, and you can tell that this is a labor of love. I came in for the Hot Pastrami Sandwich, but I also ordered the Wednesday, 2 chili-cheese dog special for 10 bucks. The dogs were really very good. They had a nice snap to them, and the chili was perfect for chili dogs - not too thick, not too runny and not too spicy. I was lucky to get the last two dogs of the day. The Hot Pastrami Sandwich was also very good (I ordered it with muenster cheese and spicy brown mustard). It also comes with a side salad (potato or macaroni) and a pickle. I was not crazy about the seedless Rye Bread, but I think they have options. There is no place to eat inside or out, so everything is packaged to go. Katz's seems to be getting more popular, so hopefully, they will squeeze a seat or two in the back, for customers to eat there, while the food is still hot. Regardless, Katz's is putting out a very nice product, and I want to see them continue to grow. Kudos to Katz's.

    Very tasty corned beef sandwich
    Robert B.

    I have been here twice so far, once for a pastrami sandwich and once for a corned beef sandwich. The meat was absolutely delicious and the service I received at the counter was great. They have some nice side dish options, and I have tried several of them. There is a wait for orders however, the first time it took 20 minutes, and the second time was 15 minutes. I would definitely recommend calling in your order in advance before arriving.

    Thank you Rick, first we are not associated with Katz in New York. Our pastrami is smoked. Our corned beef is cooked in a pressure cooker. We do sell meats by the pound. Our Pastrami is $28.00, New York Black. Our Corned Beef is $27.00 per pound.… Read more

The lasagna is delicious, and the noodles melt in your mouth. I like it because it's not overly heavy like some other lasagnas. It comes with two piecea of garlic bread. During my last visit, one was a bit burnt on the edges. The pastrami sandwich is really tasty, and the bread is soft but still has a nice chew. It usually comes with marinated diced tomatoes, but I always ask for them on the side. If you dine in, the sandwich comes with two deli sides. On my last visit, I got the potato salad and marinated artichokes and both were great. The potato salad was creamy, and the artichokes were super flavorful. For dessert, I tried the tiramisu, and it was a bit underwhelming. It had a slightly gritty texture. Since it's imported from Italy, I had high expectations, but I'm guessing it's shipped frozen, which might be why it didn't taste fresh. I wouldn't order it again. They also sell Italian cookies and gelato. The cookies are good, especially the raspberry ones. The gelato is really refreshing. I recommend mixing mango and raspberry if you like something tart, or trying the tiramisu flavor if you want something sweeter.

Imagine rows of radicchio, rainbow chard, exquisite endive, squash blossoms, sunchokes and artichokes, fennel with their fronds tangled in long red chilies surrounded by pungent herbs like perilla, lovage, tarragon. An extra star just for that. But... My only gripe is their weekly Saturday BBQ. Through the years I have enjoyed both kinds of ribs, the brisket, sausages, turkey and chicken that they cook and smoke right outside in the parking lot. Even if you don't see it, you'll smell it within a couple blocks. I can't think of a better way to promote a bbq business and Handy Market knows it. They're counting on all the new customers who get lured in by the intoxicating scent of grilled meats on live fire to try this sad, sorry excuse that they call BBQ. All the meats are dry, tasteless and overcooked. They do not season any of the meat, not even a lick of salt. They want you to buy their sugary bbq sauce and baste them on the grill. Meaning you still have to finish cooking it at home but it was tasty enough and the price was low so it was worth doing for many years. Lately though, it's been expensive and inedible. The quality of all the meat has become sus and I was sold the driest beef ribs with texture like leather, that they probably dug up from the back of a freezer and a smelly turkey leg that's left over from like, Thanksgiving. My homemade bbq sauce could not save either meat and suffice to say I will never order barbecue from here again. What's happened to you, Handy Mart? I just can't believe you've slipped so far. This is the worst bbq in all of LA and I cannot recommend anyone eating here. Those brave souls who do not heed this cautionary tale cannot say you haven't been warned. Good luck.

We grabbed two breakfast sandwiches, one with bacon and one without, and both were standout in their own way. The first thing you notice? These sandwiches come out piping hot, wrapped tight and ready to go. Crack them open and you're hit with perfectly cooked eggs and an almost ridiculous amount of gooey, melted cheese. Not skimpy, not balanced, loaded in the best possible way. The Kaiser roll deserves its own shoutout: lightly toasted with just enough crunch on the outside while staying soft and pillowy inside. It holds everything together without getting soggy, even with all that cheese. * The meat version had crispy, flavorful bacon layered just right, salty, smoky, and not overdone. * The meatless one didn't feel like a compromise at all, still rich, filling, and honestly just as indulgent thanks to the cheese and eggs. No frills, no gimmicks, just classic deli breakfast sandwiches executed really well. Bottom line: If you want a hot, cheesy, perfectly toasted breakfast sandwich that actually hits the spot, Paulie's is a win. I can't wait to go back for lunch!

    In a cramped room, next to a patio with shade sales strategically placed to let in as much sun as…read morepossible, with sidewalk tables crowded with people apparently waiting for the methadone clinic to open, I dined at Uncle Paulie's. The Downtown Turkey (my choice) is pretty basic (which was fine by me) but it was very dry and I only had half, leaving with a stomachache for the rest of the afternoon. My dining companion had the Penne Alla Vodka which she really liked. I didn't get to try any, but if a pasta dish is the winner from a deli, well, enough said. A while back, Yelp listed this as a business to try. I'd saved this for the next time I was in Studio City. My entire feeling while heading home was "I drove all the way over here for this?!"

    After we grabbed our cup of joe from The Hide Room, our daughter took us to a bagel shop called…read moreHank's. While my life pahtner is more into sweets, I'm more into savory, so I was happy our daughter was taking us to a spot for a breakfast bagel sandwich. We also ordered a variety of Hank's bagels, which were a struggle to pull apart with your hands and even with a knife, but I really enjoyed my Everything Jalapeño Cheddar bagel. The star of my meal at Hank's was their Number 1 bagel sandwich. That alone warrants a 4.5 star rating. Hank's is located in Burbank, CA., specifically on Riverside Drive and Valley Street. Rose Street is another cross street. It's across from Sweetgreen and Philz Coffee. It's on the same side of Mendocino Farms and just down the road from Bob's Big Boy. The shop is neighbors to Tocaya Organica. Parking is street parking and neighborhood parking, which is where we parked and had to walk about a block to Hank's. There isn't any indoor seating, but there are outdoor covered umbrella seating in front of the shop. It would be challenging to have a large group dine there. The shop is all about their bagels, so the decor is minimal with tshirts hanging on their white walls, a glass display case showing their cream cheeses and other cold items, and a wire rack showing their Dirty Deli Style Potato Chips for sale. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly and really helpful. We dined outside and the staff member who brought our food out was also courteous. Hank's is a shop where you order from their register and they call your name out when your food is ready. Hank's is a popular bagel shop with a lot of take out business as there was a steady flow of customers picking up on line, call in, or to go orders. For the variety of bagels we ordered, we ordered Rosemary Sea Salt, Salty Chocolate Chip, and I ordered the Everything Jalapeño Cheddar. The only issue I had with the bagels was how tough it was to tear or cut the bagels. Besides that, the bagels were very flavorful and tasty. Make sure to buy their plain cream cheese and liberally spread it on the bagels. The cream cheese made the bagels even more delicious. My Everything Jalapeño Cheddar bagel was too beautiful to eat. I love spicy, so maybe I'm immune to anything spicy, but I didn't taste any spiciness at all. There was a good amount of jalapeños on top, the cheddar doused the bagel, and I engulfed that bagel. The star of our breakfast meal was the Number 1 bagel sandwich. The number 1 comes with fried egg, choice of either spicy maple-glazed bacon or homemade turkey sausage, sharp cheddar, tomato, and aioli on an onion bagel. I selected the bacon and I loved it. I didn't realize this, but you can place any of their sandwiches on any of their bagels. Next time, I'm doing a sandwich with the Everything Jalapeño Cheddar bagel. The Number 1 sandwich is number 1 for a reason and I don't think you'll regret ordering this sandwich. All of the components combined with the bagel made for satisfying and yummy bites. I inhaled that sandwich and I thought that was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever eaten. We always love spending quality time with our Baby Girl. Spending time with her while eating delicious bagels and sandwiches at Hank's made for a blessed time before our long trek to San Francisco.

    Super bummed about this spot!! I was craving a delicious bagel so badly and we drove all the way…read moreout here to not a happy bagel place. :( Lots of street parking and wide open streets. We parked across and this place was BUSY. Line out the door! Took a while to even get inside this tiny hole in the wall. They have like 3 small tables outside. Super small tables. We luckily got a table after we ordered. Ordering took a bit since the line was out the door. I got the NUMBER 1 (egg, bacon, cheddar, tomato, aioli on everything bagel, toasted) while my bf got a custom one also toasted. Food came out pretty quick and was pretty sad. The fillings were delish BUT THE BAGEL ITSELF WAS SAD. Maybe I'm just used to crunchy/toasted bagels.. this one was insanely chewy that I felt like my teeth were going to fall out. We both asked for toasted and did not get that. I ended up picking and eating the egg and stuff inside and not even eating the bagel and tossing it. Super bummed and sad. Everything would've been so delicious if it had been toasted. Idek if they toasted them because of how chewy they were. Idk! Not my cup of tea, sadly. IG: @ammysalamii
