Chicken Queen
Winny L.

Located in Moynihan Train Hall... and one of the quickest places to get a sandwich. Breakfast is only available til 10am or so. Came here mainly for lunch to grab and go. There are many options to chose from from the menu... stick to really 2 of my go to staples to share and both are filling. Chicken Queen is a good lunch special. Comes with cole slaw (which is ok) and a pickle. Also have had the Thanksgiving turkey sandwich a couple of times. The warm gravy is good and needed as the sandwich can get a bit dry. The sweet potato knish is also good and shareable. Yes a bit pricey for the area, but so are all the places in the Moynihan Food Hall. They do serve breakfast too... will have to try the pastrami and egg on a bagel next time.

I write this to you, my dear reader, from the marbled floor in the middle of Moynihan Train station. I had intense deliberation with myself for 10 minutes about where to eat my meal before my train to Boston. "I should just get Chopt, it's healthy... Well, ramen does sound BOMB and I've been working hard lately... But a good pastrami sandwich..." Pastrami Queen won the day, as I had such a vivid picture of a Katz Deli Pastrami on Rye in my head. That turned out to be the issue, my expectations of a Katz Sandwich had Pastrami Queen fall flat on its face. Much smaller portion size, and just obviously not the same. High expectations get me into trouble in seemingly every aspect of life... solid sandwich though if you came in with no expectations. The pigs in a blanket slapped too. Funny enough, "Pigs in a Blanket" was my nickname in high school lol. They just called me "PIB" for short. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__

Corned Beef and Pastrami Sandwich! Delicious!
Mark G.

Definitely surprised at how good this sandwich was. Wasn't expecting much out of a train station food court but was definitely surprised. Got a corned beef and pastrami sandwich with potato salad and genuinely left full and satisfied. The meat was sliced thin, didn't get any gross fatty gristly bites, it was hot and juicy too. The only problem with the potato salad was that it wasn't enough. If you have a hankering for a deli sandwich and are close by, then come get you one.

Pickled Pastrami Sandwich
Melissa B.

Was extremely disappointed in their pickle sandwich - the picture advertisement makes it look large and inviting but it was so tiny and barely had any meat on it. Very difficult to eat and all around a bust - would not recommend.

Hot Pastrami Sandwich
Marie T.

Service was fast and the server was nice. The sandwich didn't wow me. It was a little dry for my liking.

Awful, best I can come up with!
KC M.

Probably the worst pastrami I have ever had. $18 sando with a small pickle. The meat was terrible, rubbery and no flavor at all. There are better choices, try them all...

Pastrami sandwich
Von Eric S.

Came here to Time Out Market and ate at Pastrami Queen. Service was good , no upselling, no asking if I wanted any sauerkraut or any other toppings . However the sandwich was good. I would have preferred that they ask If i wanted any additional ingredients so that i could have thought of it and maybe tried it. I would come back again to try it out .

Pastrami Sandwich  + Extra Meat
David B.

The pastrami is incredible, delicate and melts in your mouth. However for the quantity you get, even with adding "extra meat" the price tag doesn't justify when you can get much more from other shops in town (I'm looking at you Sarge's)

Pastrami Sand with fries and a side of dressing

Meat was dry and the bread was stale. Fries were really good. Expected it to be better.

Thick and not sliced correctly. Expected more in NYC. At least their pickle was very good. Half done and delicious.

Brooklyn Delicatessen Times Square - Bacon egg & cheese sandwich

Brooklyn Delicatessen Times Square

4.0(69 reviews)
0.6 mi•Theater District, Midtown West

Last day in New York back the end of March, found us looking for a place to get warm and grab some…read morefood while doing our last exploring dash through Times Square. We ducked here to grab some nourishment before I became to hangry. Ordering takes place at the counter then grab a table. I had a 1/2 bowl of their "famous chicken soup" and 1/2 pastrami sandwich. Had good flavor and was enough to warm me up on this brisk morning. My niece did a bagel, and after trying all week she finally got one exactly how she wanted it made. We ate and chilled for a bit, no plans for the day other than making it to the airport to go home. Was able to people watch and catch up without feeling rushed to leave. Saw locals come through, so you know it is a place worth stopping. The staff were nice and even apologized for not being able to give me the soup I wanted in a half order. Though things can often get overlooked and passed by in the hustle and bustle of the city...stop in and relax while you grab a bite to eat.

Date of visit: April 14, 2026…read more Our friend wanted to go to a real New York deli during her first trip to the city and this is the one in the vicinity of Times Square and our evening show that was the highest rated according to my fellow Yelpers, but I am not quite sure why based on our experience. Things did start out great, with Boudjema being very friendly and helpful as we placed our order. And once we got seated, we were able to fully appreciate the vibe, both in the primarily 70s playlist, but also the mirror and brass touches across the restaurant. Food-wise, however, there were some definite opportunities. My Roasted Turkey sandwich did come on quite possibly the best rye bread I have ever had, warm and flavorful. But while the gravy was also good, the turkey was cold. This odd temperature mismatch made it hard to appreciate the generous portion of meat on the sandwich. We also ordered some tater tots and those were quite good. While it definitely could have been worse--and I've had worse in New York City--this also could have been so much better.
