When most people think of the iconic Jewish delis in NYC, they typically picture a Manhattan delicatessen. The iconic Katz's Deli comes to mind, as well as 2nd Ave Deli and Sarge's Deli, However, one of the most under the radar spots for the best pastrami in NYC and the best corned beef in NYC is David's Brisket House in Bedford-Stuyvesant.
David's Brisket House was originally opened as a traditional Jewish Deli but it was purchased by Yemeni Muslims. Rather than do away with the menu, however, they largely kept many of the original offerings. The menu is no longer kosher, rather it made the transition to Halal, but it still sells pastrami on rye, corned beef, and brisket sandwiches. They also added some Middle Eastern cuisines and we tried the Moroccan harira soup during this visit.
While a bit out of the way for anyone in Manhattan or commuting from out of the state like I am, David's Brisket House in Bed-Stuy is quickly building a reputation as one of the best old-school Jewish delis around, despite no longer being Jewish-owned and operated! I do not keep kosher or halal. I keep just one dietary restriction in life: Everything I eat must be delicious!
