- Though it’s located on the west coast, Langer’s Delicatessen has put pastrami on the LA map. Norm Langer, the owner of Langer’s Deli, inherited the restaurant from his parents. The restaurant is best known for its "World Famous #19" pastrami sandwich on rye.

The Best Pastrami Sandwich Isn't In New York - It's In LA | Legendary Eats
![[Full Episode] MasterChef Junior Thailand มาสเตอร์เชฟ จูเนียร์ ประเทศไทย Season 3 Episode 5](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/g5wpgeAIzMs/mqdefault.jpg)
Back in the 60's- I was in H.S .My parents left me $2.00 for dinner. I would go to the local Deli and get a #7......Corned beef and Pastrami on rye with cole- slaw and Russian Dressing. I'd get French fries and a Dr. Browns black Cherry soda. I also tipped .15c.......... DeeeeeLicious........... Main St. and Jewel Ave.........Queens, NY
As much as I love Katz, I have to give the #1 sandwich title to Langer's. There is just something about the marriage of bread to pastrami to coleslaw that works so amazingly well. Part of the magic is that Langer's Rye is probably the best rye I've ever tasted. Simply amazing bread.
frogzlove does Katz heat their bread?
Katz has a great pastrami, not a great pastrami sandwich.
@@johndee759 No they don’t. Sorry it took two years for someone to answer your question 😂.
@@biga173rdify better than never. I have a feeling Langer’s #19 is the better sandwich.
@@johndee759 Me too. Look amazing definitely on my bucket list when I go back to LA.
Finally a pastrami sandwich that isn't dry bread and pure meat.
George Bran have you even had it lol
There are better places in NY than Katz. Don’t use their pastrami to define NY pastrami.
Dude you look sick
Russ s yeah he ain’t good😬
@@Bruh-ys3sx Lmfao 😂💀
I love pastrami sandwiches. I've had then all over, USA and Canada, this is, however, the best I've ever had. Fortunately I live only 5 miles away! :)
This sandwich is legit bomb ass fire good. I have been going to Langers since I was a kid. My mom is a big fan. I grew up in a neighborhood a couple of miles South of this area. The area itself is like an old school version of an American City during the height of blight. But there is something really authentic in seeing the real American world. A combination of working class, down on their luck and the idea of a dream. Yeah Langer's rocks!
I’ve had the sandwich 3 times and everytime I eat it I’m in heaven🤣 best pastrami I have ever had in my entire life
Dislikes are all from Katz's deli 😂
1bigjohn11 well you’re obviously shit for being so ignorant.
I’m pretty sure it’s because of your comment sir
Katz's sucks they are rude and pricey. You can have better Pastrami in 2 avenue deli and Pastrami Queen
@@alebroker7587 I've been to Katz's many times and the cutters are always friendly. Pastrami Queen and 2nd Ave are great too but they're essentially the same price as Katz's, and Pastrami Queen doesn't give you as much meat.
@@cdsmetalhead99 Katz gives you too much meat tho.
Definitely have to check this place out!
I’m crying man. 😭 It looks so beautiful!!
Hands down best sandwich I’ve ever had (#19), and best pastrami too. Finally made the pilgrimage today and WOW absolutely lives up to the hype.
My favorite place ever
Thanks Langer Family!
I need to go asap
My favorite place closed down in Phoenix for Pastrami and have been on itching for a fix of Pastrami. Finally going to L.A. this weekend and can't wait to try this place.
Just plain beautiful!
Just had this today, hands down the best!
Flying to LA next month, gonna try this for sure!👍
That looks amazing
looks good!
Ate here many times when I lived in LA. I lived out near canters but came downtown for this place 💓
That #19 is to die for, i miss it so bad!
We just got back from our first time there and we ordered the #19 and a pastrami reuben with swiss and thousand island dressing, and we both agreed the 19 was great but the reuben was absolutely perfection. 10/10
There is something unique about pastrami. I love it now and later.
Sarap Naman I love it 🥰💞
Anyways it's in America I can't travel all the way there so if anyone sees this comment , someone inspired by this business pls , start one in the Asia
Ok i will start business
I will start "sego kucing" bussiness
I APPRECIATE UR TIME TO LEARN ENGLISH!
Start using your kitchen
The best sandwich is from Burrata House in Los Angeles... And that's facts.
So far Burrata House has been the only deli or sandwich shop in North America which has blown me away.
I can't see Langers being any better than BH 10/10. BH is just so unique, yet so authentic compared to most Italian places.
Second that! Burrata House is one of my favs! 🤤
Did you guys said Burrata House 🤤🙌🏼🔥🍝 it’s the best sandwich shop in LA
you're conflating Jewish with Italian delis. it's like saying you prefer Sushi over Chinese food.
Could not agree more. Langers is by far the best pastrami in the U.S. still remember my first visit 20+ years ago. I need to visit again…. Fortunately still living in LA.
I always get the Corned beef, and its a masterpiece. I would always get that when me and my family would come to Hollywood for CHLA appointments. I would get that, and then I would get 3 of their mini M&M cookies and take some rye bread to go. Still one of my favorite establishments in Hollywood at 15 y/o! Don't yell at me for being spoiled, because I'm just a foodie! Such great pickles too!
I ABSOLUTELY AGREE....... prior to Langers the best sandwich I have had was in NEW YORK. But bar none the PASTRAMI # 19 is the best sandwich in the UNIVERSE. Holy lord Im not even into sandwich but their pastrami sandwich is in my top 10 of food I have ever eaten. I have eaten Langers countless of times even when I want to diversify its just blasphemous to eat anything besides their pastrami sandwich.
I've had both Katz and Langer's... Honestly, both equally good (tender, succulent), just in their own way 😊
thatmrb1 I thought so. To me it’s important to warm the bread unless the bread is fresh.
This place got such a chill vibe, not like a noisy tourist travel like that east coast joint.
I used to see his dad, when my dad took me to eat there. 1st chair has his name in it! RIP...
Looks delicious to me, all of it Mr. Langer, I'd eat there several times a week
Pastrami for ever 👍🏼🍽😊
"In NY there is a gimmick of making a sandwich you cant put in your mouth"
2 seconds later he eats a sandwich he can barely put in his mouth.
Thank you for perpetuating the supreme deli sandwich. I’m referring to the Reuben. Think about the harmony of crunchy, tangy, savory flavors bound together with the musk of the cheese. This, my friends, is some west coast variation on that.
We need more videos featuring this dude, his reviews and comments on the food sounds really genuine, unlike those other Food Insider female hosts that run around New York and LA with zero culinary knowledge, eating shit foods, faking their expression over food...
Ooh...! Pastrami is King in my book yummy 😋👌🏽
Great, now I’m hungry
I don't know what is this, but it look so delicious😝
when is it open til ??? I wanna go NOWWWW
Im from Texas... tempted to go to LA just for this!
Worth it if you have not........ if you did what you think?
All the dislikes are people who are allergic to all food
lol
Or maybe are people that eats healthy and not so much saturated fats. I like what I'm seing but knowing that's made by an American in a fast-food... I'm pretty sure that isn't healthier. And they are preparing the food without gloves. That can be another point of the dislikes.
Chrisxulo No one is going to dislike a video because the workers didn’t use gloves. Ever heard of washing you’re hands? And this isn’t fast food, so little to no grease is used. It’s not healthy, but it’s not bad for you either. It’s in between. Only people who are allergic to food dislikes the video ( like the comment stated).
Maximilian Mus Wut? I didn’t mean it like that
Hana Banana Oh sorry. I was replying to the other comment, not yours.
Tried the pastrami today. Really is the best I ever had.
This looks really good. Kind of resembles a Reuben. I like the Swiss cheese 🧀 addition
Imagine eating a whole brick of it OMGGGG
i finally saw some well cooked meat and it looks delicious i wished i lived there i live in illinois dont have nothing that compares you should expand your buisness here to illinois lasalle county
I have to try Katz. Lots of people say it’s so good.
We haven’t been to Langers in around ten years. We’re going today. 😁😁😁😁😁😁
I NEED IT
Ok I’m getting my key cause I live in LA and I’m now craving for pastrami
The number 19 is so bomb 😋
I lived in near Langers in the sixties. They had another location about a block away on Alvarado before they built this one. They had a sign 'when in doubt east pastrami'. I have been to the new location more than a hundred times. Usually pastrami sometimes lox and eggs for breakfast. In the summer strawberry shortcake was fantastic. My cardiologist tells me no more pastrami. Being old is inconvenient.
LANGERS!! #19.... Nothing BETTER as far as Pastrami Sandwich goes!! 👍
Canter's is my favorite, but I gotta try this . Not a fan on coleslaw but I'll leave it in for respect
I’m so hungry thanks.
Born and raised in k town, walked passed this place to get to HS and other places and I didn't know what it sold until 2 years before I ended up leaving LA now I eat there 2 to 3 times in a week when I visit.
also check out Norton's Pastrami in Santa Barbara, also very good
Also check out the subway in Barstow. Best pastrami in the world
90% of the places Food Insider covers are in NYC/LA. It's time for me to move. ☺
The best!
Benjie’s in Santa Ana makes a great version of this sandwich.
Bon appétit 🍴👍🏼😊
Looks good. Not into mustard/sour sandwiches. This looks just right.
While I used to give it to the old Carnegie Deli, Langer’s is simply great. The bread at Langer’s takes it to another level.
LA always gets a bad wrap but it's a very underrated food city. It's just so vast you got to know where to go. Also, a very underrated museum town. All the Hollywood hoopla masks what the city really has to offer. It's an extremely versatile city.
Lol only New Yorkers think LA is an underrated food city.
There's certain things NYC does better, but in terms of Asian food, especially Korean food as well as ofc Mexican food, sorry NY but this ain't your game
Kt
@jkjkjk having lived in NY for a short while they don't think any other city is good in any capacity. Gotta love their civic pride I suppose.
@@jamesdakrn true. as far as major cities go, L.A is probably the most falsely stereotyped and underrated.
According to Statista, LA is ranked 3rd in terms of most museums in the world. Over 200 across the southland. Only Moscow and Paris have more museums.
@@jamesdakrn outside of Japan, L.A is the sushi capital of the world. there's no city outside of Japan with more sushi spots ranging from high end to budget, than the greater L.A area.
The best Pastrami sandwich in the WORLD.
Helpings are immense. i'd need a child's portion.
LA is a tale of two pastramis: Langers downtown and Johnnies on the Westside/Culver City. Canter's and Phillipe's are also good. I miss the pastrami burrito at Oki Dog.
hitachicordoba I heard legends about oki dogs. My uncle told me it’s a gut buster. We almost went there but ended up at Pink’s because they had a long line. I want to try Papaya King’s Hot Dog.
Johnnies?? That's a joke. Johnnies pastraimi is full of cheap meat and it's full of grissle and it can't compare to deli pastrami. Where did you first eat pastrami, in Alabama?
let's say there is plenty of room for them both, only tried Canters at Fairfax, but would love to test out Katz, but it was back in 2012 I did test Canters I would guess it is the same
Yummy
Go to Montréal and have a Smoke Meat sandwich. Beats pastrami any day.
But man those look delicious
The meat at Katzs is fine. It’s about the bread. That’s why New Yorkers always concede after they try Langer’s in LA.
Best sandwich ever
What do you do with all the excess food
The sandwich looks amazing but where are the gloves for their hands
Most restaurants don't wear gloves, I'm not sure why people think they do. Sure some do, but more often than not, they don't. If a restaurant is following proper food safety regulations, gloves aren't necessary because the staff's hands are just a clean as a pair of gloves.
who cooks with gloves?
Only if you knew how many restaurant cooks dont wear gloves. I myself dont mind I'm not sensitive like other peope.
Extra flavor.
You need that Salmonella for the authentic flavour.
Yes, I would like my sandwich *EXTRA THICC*
Katz Deli will always be king in my heart but I will have to try this
Overpriced and overhyped
Katz put too much meat and no type of veggies to balance it out 🤢🤮🤮🤮
@@tloco1529 🧢 the hype is real
Is rye the only type of bread they'll serve their sandwiches on ?
Salam and Shalom from Valahia 🌳 and România 🇷🇴
Pastrami comes original from my country Valahia 🌳 and România 🇷🇴
Pastrami comes from the word
P Ă S T R Ă M A
The word Pastrama means conservation!
Katz's serves 4000 a day & that's years ago but now even more than that. How many Langer serves? The place looks empty, no line of customers.
That does good things for the quality .. u have to give Katzs that .. they do have to serve a lot more people, otherwise it would probably be better
i've been to Langer's and Katz's. both are great. but i'd give a very slight edge to Langer's.
wat glasses are those, theyre nice
World Class Sandwich
Joey loves sandwiches
My goodness these are most generous portions is this normal in the USA.
Long live Langer’s Deli, truly a legendary landmark which New York can’t beat❤
La we not in competition , other states compete we sit back
Billy's in Glendale had the best...don't know if it's still open. I moved to AZ two.5 years ago. But ya....deli style I go to Billy's. Shaved I go to The Hat. That's pastrami.
A good italian sandwich you go to Mario's.
Cuban go to porto's.
Armenian... almost anywhere in Glendale
I want air free food
I thought you guys said Katz from NYC is the best pastrami sandwich place!!!
It's in the books they said langers is the best in the country PERIOD.
The ring on the finger kind of ruins it for me
If this video had been filmed in some Asian country, there would be plenty of comments from shocked people because the cook touches the food directly with bare hands ...
Apparently y’all ain’t eat at Katz Deli in NYC
BadaBing exactly what I said.
I've been there once and it's dried af
Just a tourist trap
Katz is weak. LA mastered the pastrami sandwich. Case closed...
Sorry Yorkers, here in L.A we make EVERYTHING BETTER
I make my own pastrami sandwiches (rye bread, Dijon and of course pastrami). It is the BEST sandwich ever
Boar’s head pastrami with horseradish mayo big eye Swiss, and kraut on caraway-rye Griddled in butter.
It’s funny that one of the best pastrami’s I had was in Kansas City...
All of my Katz's have been fresh bread and loads of superb pastrami - it is a fave. Extra mustard is a must a extra dills. The quality, visit after visit, is consistent and that matters to me. I also love Russ and Daughters. I get their bagels and get pastrami and make such a fab hot smoked pumpernickel and pastrami bagel!! Extra mustard of course!!
👌👌👌👌👌
Heeyyyyy I love yall
This restaurant is right in border of Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, the pastrami sandwich is the best!!
It's a long, long way east of Beverly Hills. Have you ever been to Los Angeles?
Stop! You’re making me hungry!
Is it better than Jay and Lloyd's kosher deli
Question: What is the singular word form for PASTRAMI?
Answer: PASTRAMA
Stop
with less competition in the area it's bound to get more hype. it's fine pastrami, but the hype would have you believing you're trying something otherworldly.
the "hype" is justifiable...the #19 is better than anything you'll find in NY...
You’re crazy.
#19 and the #44 you can give to aliens and it’ll save us from being obliterated
Obviously your clueless... its ok bro
Okay, what city exactly has more pastrami than New York that the hype is do to less competition?
