Solid basic corned beef sandwich here. "The Original" is very straightforward, thick slices of corned beef on rye with mustard. "The Classic", ham and Swiss on rye, also hit the spot. Can't go wrong with either one. They have more elaborate sandwiches like Reubens too, but i always prefer the simpler versions myself. As for sides: mac and cheese is good (kids love it), but the thing to not miss is the creamed spinach - it was great and an unexpected treat. Anyplace open for more than 100 years is bound to be good at what they do, and Magee's is no exception. read more

Happy to read all the recent positive reviews for this delightfully old-school spot. The Rueben was a flawless sandwich. Fresh, flavorful, great meat, great bread. 10 out of 10. All the meats displayed looked scrumptious. Located in a quiet and quaint part of the farmers market with easy access. Totally worth giving it a try! read more

Best pastrami quality I've ever had. So mouthwatering. Definitely recommend. Fast service.

Tried their famous corned beef with their parsley potatoes and macaroni salad. The meal was good, Felt like there's just some flavor lacking a bit but overall worth a try read more

As always, the absolute best! The French dip, roast beef, corned beef and pastrami are next level, whether served as a sandwich or a plate, and are incredible. It's not a really a "deli" per se, but it definitely surpasses any deli within miles. Their homemade sides are excellent and their hot dogs, OMG, unbelievable! That chili cheese dog makes Pink's and Tommy's look sad. And don't get me wrong,I love me a Pink's or Tommy's, but Magee's is on a different plane. I don't think there's anything on the menu that isn't a wonderful surprise -- you cannot go wrong here! Enjoy! read more

On a sunny Saturday morning, we came here to catch some munchies before going shopping with two teenage girls... When I saw a guy craving juicy slices from a roasted chunk of meat, I was sold. I ordered a French Dip sandwich, and it was delicious! The bread was soft and the meat was tender and juicy. The sauce wasn't greasy or over salted, everything was just right :) read more

Tried the norm pastrami sandwich! So fire wow. I think it's on the same level or maybe better than langers, buttery soft melts in your mouth. I like it more than station 43, bristol farms pastrami (I think), and Jonnie's pastrami, and lodge cafe for sure. Mac and cheese was mid. But pastrami was truly wow I enjoyed it. Some of the norm spices are eh. The French dip sandwich is mid it's under seasoned, bland, and the meat is dry. The one from SBG is way better read more

The pastrami sandwich was great but it was a bit on the pricey side. I appreciated a good amount of choices on the menu and the quick service (granted there were only a few people ahead of me.) read more

Came to Magee's at the Original Farmers market and we're promptly served delicious food. We had a corned beef sandwich, a side of Mac n cheese, baked beans, and a slaw dog as well as a couple sodas. The cherry cream soda was to die for while the orange soda tasted like a starburst. The slaw dog was much bigger than expected and the mac n cheese was sooooo creamy and delicious. The Reuben was pricey at $19, but very well worth it. Would be nice if it came with a simple bag of chips at that price. The baked beans were just okay, they definitely were missing flavor and a bit bland. This is a food stall in the farmers market, so no table service. You order at the counter and then get your food and choose any table like a regular food court. The location is busy but the tables are clean and there are folks running around clearing and cleaning tables throughout the day. This is a great place for a first date or to get together with friends, with food for all people, but Magee's is particularly good. read more

Took family to farmers market, been many years since I was last there. Looked around at the various places to eat and saw the sign, pastrami sandwich and saw the guy cutting slices of meat by hand in the window. I spent only about 5 secs looking and was thinking of a great big tasty pastrami like at The Hat. I looked at the price, $24 but thinking ok, a great sandwich for 24 plus tax, ok. My mistake and I admit it, was not spending a minute watching the guy make the sandwich before buying. The guy cutting the meat, he would cut small slices and put them on a small digital scale, they put them on plate or sandwich. I ordered the pastrami on sour dough, I assumed I was going to get at least a 12in sandwich, I was totally wrong. I saw him make it, a small 6 inch piece of sour dough bread, with about 3 slices of pastrami and a slice of pickle. If I would of seen that small sandwich for 26 bucks, I would of laughed at it, walked away to one of the other restaurants and ate there. What sad is, even for 26 bucks, not even a small bag of chips or soda. Was still not full after eating the small sandwich and had to go elsewhere to fill up. I do not mind paying good money for a delicious dish or a big plate of something but this was not either. The sandwich was good in taste, but not $26 good. read more

I LOVE corned beef so you know when I was at the market I had to get a corned beef reuben. It was DELICIOUS!! The corned beef, sauerkraut, and mustard were all in generous portions. But it is pretty small for the price ($22 after tax). If you have a larger appetite like me, expect to be grabbing one or two more things at the farmers market because you probably won't be full from just this reuben. Luckily trying foods is what farmers markets are all about after all :) read more

I recently stopped by The Grove and had to stop by The Original Farmer's Market. It was very busy there and there are so many places to choose from , but luckily Yelp guided me here. This is a staple restaurant in the market with plenty of selection. All of their hot meats looked divine! I asked one of the workers what was popular and they pointed to their World Famous Corned Beef Sandwich which I knew I had to try. I got the plate version to save a few carbs.... Or rather save for the carbs I really wanted in the mashed potatoes! Haha. The Corned Beef was juicy and tender and did not "fatty" at all. Loved the pairing with the cabbage and the mashed potatoes but you can pick other sides. With tip, my total came to around $20. A little on the pricey side, but worth it. Love supporting places like this which are truly L.A. institutions for a reason. I would love to come back! read more

So many choices, so many goodies, SOOOOO HUNGRY!!! I don't know about Big Bro but I wanted to eat EVERYTHING! But I let him take the lead. Since their menu caught his eye soon as we walked in, decision was pretty much done. He immediately decided on the Katz Meow. I advised him that before jumping the gun on what he should have for lunch to at least go roam around the entire Farmer's Market first since something else might catch his eye. He gave in, and after a few minutes of looking at other eateries, he still had his heart set on this place. Their menu is quite inviting. With Big Bro's sammich, he took a side of cucumbers. I went for the New Yorker with a side of mac salad. Being it a semi-warm day, we opted for bottled waters (vs soda.) Both sandwiches were made to order with hand carved meat. They were also both cut in half, so Big Bro and I traded halfsies just to get a taste of each other's orders. They were similar (given the type of meats) but they were also different. I chose the NY'er because I love the combo of corned beef and pastrami. They were generous with the amount and tasting both meats in one bite was very pleasant. I loved it. Mac salad was a great palate cleanser. It was light and not too savory, so it combo'd well with the sammich. The Katz Meow (as the cashier described) is their biggest meat sandwich, also one of the popular ones. Like the New Yorker, they were generous with the amount of meat. It is a pastrami sandwich and that's exactly what I tasted. It was juicy and packed with flavor. Recommending! The cucumber side was nothing to call home about. Mediocre at best. FOOD: 4. SERVICE: 3. Very little interaction. VALUE: 3.5. PARKING: Private lot for a fee. OVERALL: 3.5. I would return should I have the taste for deli sandwiches next time I find myself around here. read more

Situated in the famous Los Angeles Farmers Market, Magee's Kitchen established in 1917, over a century years old. They've been in the business since the inception of the ORIGINAL FARMERS MARKET RESTAURANT. For a company to be around before the Great Depression, they are more than a restaurant. It's an iconic establishment. Fascinated by its history, I had to give it a try. What I ordered: PASTRAMI SANDWICH and a side of MACARONI SALAD - Rye bread, Hand-sliced Pastrami, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Pickles, Onions, and Spicy Mustard - What I loved most of this sandwich was that the carver selectively hands sliced each pastrami and even took the time to cut off any excess fat and dark areas. Spicy mustard was the sauce I asked to be added to the sandwich. I was a bit unimpressed by the mustard because it was not spicy, and it didn't have that horseradish kick to the nose feeling. I thought the pastrami texture was good, but overall the sandwich was generally something I could have made at home. It didn't taste special. The macaroni salad tasted fresh but nothing extraordinary as well. This restaurant is a bit of a toss because I did enjoy the meal. But at the same time, I had high expectations. For a restaurant to be around this long, this restaurant's best representation is the home cooking method. read more

I've had their hot dogs a few times and always had a good experience! They're a good size, toppings are plentiful, and staff is nice/quick. I've always gotten the downtown dog- I should probably branch out next time but it's just always so good! They have sodas that are also fantastic! Highly recommend the cherry cream. read more

We walked through all the restaurants and this place had a long line, so we were intrigued. It was hard to decide between the pastrami dip or the sandwiches that had both pastrami and corned beef, but I decided on the the Ruben on sourdough. The Ruben on sourdough was delicious! It had plenty of meat and the sourkraut complemented the sandwich perfectly. I ended up eating the whole thing with the picked too, of course! I also ordered one of their juices which was really good and not too sweet. Make sure you stop here if you're looking for good tasty food! read more

I had The Norm - a pastrami sandwich - for dinner last night through UberEATS and I have to say it was spectacular. I grew up in New York in the '50s and have ordered many a great sandwich there, to include Katz's Deli, which has always been my favorite, but I have to say, the sandwich last night was every bit as good as I recall Katz's being. I loved that it wasn't smoked so the pure pastrami flavor could shine through unhindered. Normally, the pastrami here in California, is more like jerky than pastrami and often smoked, but that's not what I received last night: it was thick, juicy, and packed with that true pastrami flavor. Now, I order delivery frequently and have had many deliveries that started out being great but eventually fell in quality until I had to stop ordering from them - almost like they realized it was my first time and wanted to put out their very best but didn't maintain it. I've been looking for good pastrami here over many years (pizza too) but had, up to last night, been unsuccessful, So, I am really encouraged and hoping Magee's quality will remain consistent. Great job Magee's!!! read more

It is located at The Grove Farmer's Market. Decided to try the Reuben sandwich and shared this with my hubby. They weigh the meat so every sandwich is equal. For the price and the amount you get, it isn't worth it for $20 after tax. It is really pricey and we had better corned beef sandwich. There was literally 3 pieces of meat in there. Decent sandwich, but there are better ones out there for the price. read more

Located in The Original Farmer's Market, my bf & I were at shopping at The Grove and wanted a quick dinner. The owner was friendly and gave us an extra bit of pastrami to sample. I loved the pastrami, thought it was more tender and slightly more flavorful than the corned beef, so that'll be my go-to next time! The corned beef plate was also good though! You get a choice of two sides (hot/cold) and they carve the meet and weigh per plate. I also got the French Dip sandwich and enjoyed it too. Didn't get any pictures this time because we happened to be starving, lol. They validate parking for Farmer's Market parking lots only. read more

From the pastrami sample, I was sold..so tender it.melts in your mouth. Like real NY style...The cream spinach is so good..glad I chose it for my side. They actually serve quarter cabbage as a side. Never get pastrami like this in Atlanta. I will remember this for a long time read more

Tried Magees Kitchen for the first time back in late August. Tried the roast beef plate with mashed potatoes and creamed corn. Also asked for extra horseradish. Amazing. It was a great weather Friday and the place was getting packed at lunch time. Great to see people enjoying themselves. Magees also has great sandwiches. Also some of the dining tables have great views of the Hollywood Hills! read more

Great options for a quick meal or snack! I was walking around the grove and got a little hungry. After browsing the farmers market we figure this was a good option. The menu is very straight forward and they tell you exactly what is on each item. The staff weren't the friendliest I had to get her attention to order but she was fairly hasty with taking our order. There were many options but we ended up both getting the mac and cheese hot dog. It comes with bacon and ketchup on it. It was pretty tasty! A little confused that they didn't give a napkin or fork with it considering its a loaded dog and obviously was going to be messy. We had to ask for it and even though we had two hot dogs she just gave us one... weird. I took off one star for the blah service and because the mac and cheese seemed old like it had been sitting out for a few hours. It would have been much better fresh and cheesy. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here but if I am walking around the grove craving a hot dog, I might give it another go. Overall 7 out of 10. read more

Nothing like a fresh carved, warm turkey sandwich from Magees. Their turkey plate with mashed potatoes and gravy also exceptional. I love all they have to offer. Dine here weekly. The corned beef is the best in the world. French dip or just slices of roast beef .. yummy. All hand carved. read more

I have lived in LA for 50 years. I have been to all the big time sandwich joints - Phillippe's, Langer's, etc. But Magee's is rightfully known by all of us who really live here as the best of the best. Magee's pastrami and corned beef are perfectly cooked and of the finest quality. The turkey is fresh roasted like your mom would make on Thanksgiving. The ham is delicious. The side dishes are perfect as well. There is a reason this restaurant has served Angelenos for decades and there is a reason all the true locals come to Magee's for the best roasts and sandwiches on earth. This is truly a piece of Los Angeles history that I urge everyone to support. You will become a regular - trust me. read more

I'm a frequent guest to Farmer's Market and a fan of French Dip, familiar with the local haunts that have offered it around town for decades. I was starving and wanted to see how Magee's Kitchen shaped up, being an institution at Farmer's Market for over 100 years. I came on a weeknight, and there was only one person ahead of me so it was a short wait. The girl behind the counter was helpful and gave me a numbered ticket as I waited for my Dip to be made to order. To my surprise, Magee's only sells water, but in true Farmer's Market fashion, there are plenty of other stalls that sell drinks. My French Dip was good, but not my favorite compared to other 100+ year old Cafe options in town. Great pickle on the side though, and if I'm in the area and craving a French Dip, I could come back. Perhaps! read more

In a sea of amazing food options... fresh donuts! Empanadas! Ice cream! Waffle espresso shots! Fresh pasta! Aaaaand I settled on this place... a basic diner/deli serving average food. Well, I wanted to stay low-carb today... I ate so much crap in DTLA the day before, just so I could use restrooms while on my walking tour that I needed to reset my body the rest of this trip. That said, my salad was not 'wow' nor memorable, but it was filling at a fair price. Warm, freshly sliced pastrami on top of basic greens... I opted for no dressing(actually they didn't offer one, and I was fine with that) as I knew the meat would be salty. It was a great decision; it was already so hot at 10am that dressing would have been too heavy. Overall, I can't see myself coming back here with so many other food stalls, but it fit my need that day and was super friendly on my wallet. Pros: - real plate - inexpensive - in a large food court with plenty of seating - fresh carved meats Cons: - none really. Everything was as expected read more

So many selections here at The Original Farmer's Market, but we went with Magee's Kitchen. Sandwiches were made to order which is always nice to see. Our sandwich has juicy meat with the right amount of crunch from the rye bread. The sauerkraut made the bread a bit soggy, but hey what can you expect. We ordered our sandwich with a side of mac and cheese and it was just the best meal ever. Notes: None read more

Magee's Kitchen is located inside the Los Angeles Farmers Market, according to their website they're the original farmers market restaurant and have been open since 1934. My boyfriend and I went to the farmers market for lunch and were picking out snacks from different stands. I chose to get a Mac Daddy Hot Dog $8.50 which is a 1/4 lb. beef Nathan's hot dog topped with mac & cheese, bacon crumbles and ketchup. It tasted alright, the mac & cheese made it heavy for me so my boyfriend helped me finish it. Magee's offers many items on their menu including deli sandwiches, and plates like corned beef, turkey, roast beef, etc. read more

Ended up here for lunch because corned beef, how can you pass that up? Service was slow since they were busy it took a long time to order, seemed like they could speed that process up with order forms or something. The corned beef was good (hard to screw up) bonus points since they trim the fat, some places don't. I got the potatoes and cabbage as my sides which were ok but lacked seasoning I was glad I asked for salt and pepper. They are located in the farmers market. read more

Got the Reuben and the macaroni and cheese. The sandwich was really good! Very juicy and they are generous with the meat on the sandwich. The reason for the 4 star was cause the macaroni and cheese was very bland and didn't have much flavor, also the price for just those two things was close to $30. Next time I'd probably just get the sandwich by itself cause it was really good. read more

I try to support small independently owned businesses as much as I can. Unfortunately, this restaurant was a huge bust. I ordered their chicken enchilada plate (2 enchiladas with rice and beans) and was terribly disappointed. The food wasn't edible and I had to toss it in the trash after only a few bites. It was also overly priced. The enchilada sauce itself was unlike anything I've ever tasted and couldn't even be called enchilada sauce. The rice was horrendous: white rice (which seemed to have Veg-All mixed in) and had zero flavor. The beans were probably the best part about this dish and even that had zero flavor. I ordered one of their handcrafted colas which I also tossed out. I had high hopes but in the end I literally threw out a $20 meal. read more

My brother ended up wanting some Magee's so I decided to just grab something from there and I'm glad I did!

Will have to come back to try their other sandwiches. read more
