::Learned about Harry and Ida’s on a Sandwich Tour. Took my husband when we returned to NYC. Love everything about Harry and Ida’s. Our pastrami sandwich was gourmet. Appreciate all the ingredients and garnish. The place is charming- a real find!

::The pastrami is tender, delicious and high quality-some of the best in the city. Unfortunately, the sides and bread are a bit of a disappointment. The chicken and bluefish salads are tastier sandwich options The potato salad is the best of the sides, but the garlic broccoli and kalachee are sad containers of limp veggies. The bread is a hoagie roll, soft and chewy, but I wish it had discernible crust. Worth a try, but not necessarily an essential, must-go-to spot

::I usually try not to leave negative reviews on social media but we left this place upset and disappointed. It was the most flavorless and chewiest pastrami I've ever had. When I took the meat out of the sandwich, and stretched it like a piece of rubber, it didn't even fall apart. Unfortunately - and this is my biggest disappointment - the staff didn't seem to care much when we brought the food back. I actually asked why the meat was so tough and almost impossible to bite. I was told it was normal because "this is how they make it" but to me it just felt like the meat wasn't ready. No refund or apology were offered, still hungry we were forced to find a different place and spend more money on food that we had planned.

::Not to big on large orders so I ordered the Ida size pastrami. Meat was delicious but was drowned out by the bread and cucumbers. Would of been better if I put all the meat onto one half of the roll. Then this would be an expensive 4 inch sandwich 12.50.

::Lovely quick bite with friendly staff! The pastrami is superb and the decorations are delightful! Get locally foraged mushrooms, herbs, and other of ingredients! Pastrami is smoked for 8 hours, streamed for 7 to be nice and juicy. It was a slow night and the staff talked about their process.
