This deli and restaurant is perhaps a little more expensive but worth its price. This is the New York City area, and we expect to pay more here.
Midwood has a sizeable Orthodox Jewish population, so it’s no surprise that one of the most favored Jewish delis is in this South Brooklyn neighborhood.
Essen never was intended as a destination for tourists. It’s a deli that exists to serve its community — and to make the best pastrami sandwiches in New York.
This isn’t a too-big-to-eat sandwich. The pastrami is juicy, thinly-sliced, and piled high between two slices of soft rye bread. The matzah ball soup and latkes are both excellent, and best in their class examples of traditional Jewish cooking. If you’ve never had a pastrami egg roll, you should try one here. The menu is divided into two sections: Jewish deli and takeout-style Chinese. The meals from both are just great!
Essen NY Deli is one of of the last old fashioned delis in New York, and part of an even smaller amount in Brooklyn. From the homemade deli to the authentic Chinese, there is just nothing like it in the area and beyond. All the meats are cured and smoked by hand with no machinery involved, and it’s the personal touches like these that set us apart.
The food, the service, and the atmosphere that we have is second to none and has everyone leaving, attesting to the fact that, “There is nothing like FrEssen at the Essen DelicatEssen!”
