Known For
The lowdown
A onetime Brooklyn Jewish deli now owned and operated by Yemenite Muslims serving serious sandwiches to a mostly African-American clientele? Absolutely. Despite the name, you’d be wise to opt for corned beef or, even better, the pastrami, with mustard on rye.
What you need to know
