This place is great. Food was awesome. Monica was very welcoming to us out of towners. My buddy Brent said this reminded him of his time when he lived back in New Jersey.

The #9 Rachel (no sauerkraut)
Amelia C.

We went to this restaurant on a Sunday at noon and were the only people in there. The woman at the counter was very friendly and helpful when ordering and was able to sit us very quickly. Overall great server. The inside of the restaurant was very clean and looked nice. They had music from the 90's playing, so very nice ambience. Parking is a little difficult, however there was a parking garage down the street that is free on Sundays, we just followed the signs. For context, this was the first and only pastrami sandwich I have had (so I have nothing to compare this too), and I am usually a very picky eater. We ordered the Ruben, and the Rachel, one with and one without sauerkraut. The sandwiches were very large even for the junior size! I believe our server said that the junior size is 5 oz of pastrami and the larger size had 8 oz. Overall, I really enjoyed the Rachel without sauerkraut and I think that for people who enjoy sauerkraut, it would be a nice addition to the sandwich! The best part was the Russian dressing on the Rachel, it really brought the sandwich together! We also got onion rings and fries which were a nice compliment to our sandwiches. They have individual cans/bottles for drinks except water I believe. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience and worth my time and money.

Monica runs an awesome pastrami shop! The meat is cooked perfectly. The dining area and restrooms are spotless and well designed. I love the seating optionality here. Not too crammed. We will definitely come back!

Been to the other location a few times, this is definitely the nicer of the two interior setup/design wise. This one makes you feel like you're more in a NY deli. Fast service, friendly staff. Parking situation isn't that great, but the quality is worth the headache over all. Had the Hot Pastrami sandwich....Excellent! I've also never heard of the brand of chips they carry, 'Charles Chips,' but they were very good as well. Grades: Hot Pastrami- A++ Fries- B Chips- A

@BigDudesBigFoods was in #MorristownNJ supporting another fantastic #SmallBusiness on Speedwell Ave. It's a typical Motown storefront with a 1950s diner vibe inside. We were down one Dude because @JoePinto77 was under the weather . Luckily we were able to get @Jimbo2800_1 as a subst-i-Dude. Monica and her crew really treated us well. We started out with some turkey balls that we saw on @_ohsolocal_ which were thanksgiving all rolled up in riceball looking tasty spheres with homemade cranberry sauce and gravy to dip in. Next up were some classic hot pastrami samiches which are not easy to find in Morris County. Another pleasant surprise were the #pastrami filled #empanadas accompanied by some awesome sauces. There plenty of palette cleansing pickles to have between courses. Finally, Monica brought us a perfectly sized #RedVelvetCake to complete our feast. Tip of the day: If a restaurant goes through the trouble of wrapping up the food that you didn't finish, remember to bring it home. #PastramiHouse #BigDudesBigFoods #SupportSmallBusiness #BDBFCertified #BDBF

Chicken soup with matzoh ball
Mike B.

Great spot for some legit Jewish deli food in Morristown. It's a storefront spot on busy Speedwell Ave. I got lucky and found an on-street spot close by. You can order at the counter or they have table service. About a dozen tables, plus a couple on the sidewalk. Decor is NY deli kitsch. Loved the wooden crate of seltzer bottles. Brought back memories of my grandma's house in Brooklyn. The menu is varied but the focus is on delicatessen food. Stuck with a few staples on this trip. Corned beef is fresh and flavorful, very lean. It was slightly dry. Served as ordered on rye with spicy mustard. Pickle and slaw on the side. Chicken soup with a matzoh ball is spot-on. Nicely seasoned broth, chunks of chicken and veggies. Matzoh ball firm and perfect. This is as good as grandma used to make. Also had a kasha-stuffed knish. It's a square potato knish, slit down the center and stuffed with kasha. Never had this combo before but it was very tasty. Filling moist and well seasoned. excellent kasha. Crusty flaky dough. Good! A couple of minor nits. The soup could have been hotter. The sandwich and knish are served in cardboard fry boats. Could have used a plate. Soup served in a plastic bowl on a plastic tray. Needs a real bowl. Upgrades on these things will elevate the experience to legit deli level. All in all though... If you want to get your Jewish deli food on.... This place will scratch your itch.

What a find. Thanks for the hospitality. Can't wait to come back and try this again. Great sandwich

Everything was excellent got the Pastrami sandwich and matzo ball soup. definitely coming back also employees were super chill

Really enjoyed pastrami house! I'm Not a huge pastrami lover but I will be coming back more often. My husband ordered the sandwhich with pastrami and corned beef and it was STUFFED. The Russian dressing is delectable, and I can't stop thinking about it. I ordered the classic hot pastrami on rye with the Russian dressing and it was really good. It was so big that I had to take the second half home. We also ordered some sides, the onion rings and fried macaroni and cheese. Both were okay, a little oily so if you want something lighter I'd stick to the sandwiches. Love the old school diner vibe with the Coca Cola chairs and high tops. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. Can't wait to come back

Onion rings
Todd C.

After waiting for weeks, we ordered take out during the restaurant's soft opening. I ordered the cyclone - a brisket sandwich with onions and peppers. The brisket was perfectly moist with almost no fat. It melted in my mouth. The onions and peppers were scant, but I liked the pickle spear; the side of cole slaw was ok. My wife got a turkey sandwich that she asked to have cooked (it wasn't) but her meal was still good. The inside of the place reminds me slightly of Johnny Rockets. Loved the old school buckets of Charles Chips (we used to order them all of the time as a kid). The place still has some things to iron out - my sandwich had the wrong kind of cheese & the door was locked when I tried to get the order - but the place has a ton of potential. Parking is a challenge. There is limited street parking but an expensive parking garage and CVS' lot are potential options. I can't wait to try this place again! On a side note, I can't believe I beat Chris of Morristown to an eating establishment! There's a first for everything!

Stopped by after seeing this place all over TikTok to see what the hype was about, and oh my…read morelord... it was ABSOLUTELY worth it! (I'm screaming at y'all to GO TRY IT!) I've driven by this food truck countless times and there's always been a line, but it's gotten even crazier since TikTok blew it up. I came early and still waited about 20-30 minutes before placing my order, but honestly, the wait didn't even feel that bad. The staff were incredibly friendly and made the wait in line a no sweat. While everyone was waiting, they handed out free fries with their homemade sauce, which was such a nice surprise! They also passed out bottles of cold water and even let parents with young kids order first. It's little gestures like these that really show they care about their customers and their community. The chimichurri and all of their sauces are made fresh daily, and you can definitely taste the difference--they're absolutely delicious!! I had everything on my steak and fries (Steak was made medium rare to order and just how I like it; fries were crispy good!!) Beyond the amazing food, the father and son owners were some of the kindest people I've met. They genuinely radiate positivity, treat everyone with respect, and create such a welcoming atmosphere. It's rare to find a place with incredible food and people who care this much about their customers. This is the kind of local business that deserves all the success! I'll definitely be back!

My girlfriend visited this food truck the weekend before and highly recommended it to me. Since I'm…read morenotoriously picky when it comes to restaurants and food spots, I arrived with high expectations--and I'm happy to report that this place exceeded them. First, the wait was completely worth it. If you get there early, you can probably avoid the line, but even if you can't, don't let that discourage you. Good food is worth a few extra minutes of patience. As someone who pays attention to the details, I always take a quick look inside food trucks and kitchens when I can. I was genuinely impressed by how clean, organized, and professional everything looked. It's clear they take pride in what they do. Now, let's talk about the food. The fries were fresh and clearly made in-house--not the typical pre-packaged fries you find everywhere else. The steak portions were generous (they definitely don't believe in counting pieces), and the combination of flavors and sauces came together perfectly. Every bite was better than the last. By the time I finished, I was already planning my next visit. There are still several items on the menu I want to try, and if they're anything like what I had, my diet may be in serious trouble. Highly recommended!

Fantastic staff- also don't be afraid of parking, there is a garage around the corner…read more We called in an order so we would have less of a wait with the kids and Edward took our order and held a table for us. We walked in 15 minutes later and he literally pointed to a booth where our two Detroit reds were just set up and waiting on us- we felt like royalty! On to the pizza- have tried many Detroit style pizzas over the years, I would say this was more Detroit "inspired", Aside from the edges, It had a soft bready crust - a little too fluffy compared to the crisp, almost focaccia-like crust we are accustomed to. Not to fret, it's still delicious! Quality pull on the cheese and the sauce holds its own. Some of the slices had the caramelized cheese halo and those were attacked first. Since we prepaid on the phone we didn't have the option to leave a tip. No worries, quick view of the sweet delights and we ordered some bombolones so that we could add a tip there!

Well, apparently I spoke too soon. You don't need a passport to experience a tourist trap. Just come to Morristown and pay $7 plus tax for a burnt croissant ( photo attached). Yep, you heard that right. Seven bucks. Burnt. I stopped in for takeout and got a chocolate croissant , a can of Diet Coke, and a burnt ham-and-cheese croissant. By the time everything was said and done, I walked out almost $18 lighter -- before tip. At that point, I wasn't even mad. I was impressed. TikTok influencers who travel around the world making videos about tourist scams can save themselves the airfare. Come to Morristown. We apparently have some champions right here in Jersey. No pyramid tour required. Bye never again... Wonder how much was a pizza here??
