Gift Tips
- Order the Sasha sandwich if you like bold flavors—pastrami, fried egg, and Swiss on rye is a standout combo.
- For a classic experience, go with the Reuben or Russian Reuben on house-baked rye and add latkes or a knish on the side.
- Warm up with the homemade matzo ball and chicken soup; it’s a comforting starter that pairs well with any sandwich.
- Finish with bakery treats like black-and-white cookies, lemon bars, or apple cobbler à la mode—great to take home, too.
- Brunch seekers should try the French-toasted turkey club or corned beef hash with a toasted bagel for a hearty start.
