Attmans Authentic New York Delicatessen

Yummers ... I went at 11am no line no wait full street available for parking. Corned beef row I prefer attmans over Weiss but today I went for a hot dog.... It was just ok. Didn't sit in but lots of seating available.

Im not here to rain on anybodys parade but I was not impressed with the corned beef sandwich I got. Across the street was Jacks, line out the door back in the day, hot corned beef pulled out of hot water sliced up fresh and hot in front of you. Needless to say it was thick cut and juicy and nobody bothered to weigh each pile of meat, no time for that, piled high. You could ask for the lumber jack if you wanted an extra large size. Next was the deli hot dog area to get a deliscious fried baloney on your deli hot dog. Yes I realize the day of a criwd gatherd in a long line out the door kind of demand, but the cold corned beef scaled then heated by microwave I got at Attmans doesn't cut it. Can you imagine going to Katz Deli in NY and they did that? That would be the end of them!

This place is like coming home because of fond memories here. My family would come to the area for fresh chickens and fresh meat. This area was one of the top places in Baltimore to get fresh items. But things do change. I was last here with my mother in 1998 for the corn beef and it still taste the same. I had today the corn beef and the roast beef. The corn beef was made to order that was with rye bread and mustard. This is the way my dad likes his and I am a traditionalist. The sandwich was warm and tasty from the first to the last. The sandwich is big enough for two but hey this is just too good to share. Get your own! The roast beef was also good and tender. Delicious. I had this the same way as above. Not too fatty. Some places give you a lot fat with it but this was spot on. Also big enough for two and no sharing allowed. The place is not too far from the inner harbor and parking can be a bear. Their is parking in the rear but it can be tight as well. Inside you will have a line ahead of you. The staff seem to know everyone and since the food is good, a lot of frequent flyers. They are very knowledgeable and will help you with ordering. They do have a small area to sit down and eat. They are very busy so it is best to order ahead. Finally, I saved the best for last. The classic dill pickle. When I was a kid this was the best part of the meal. Yes. my desert. The pickle was delicious, crisp with the right amount of spice and sourness. Just a thing of beauty. Still taste the same too. This place is an institution a love letter from a time gone bye. This place is highly recommended. Cheers!

This is EXCATLY what you've been looking for in a deli. I got a Regular Hot Pastrami on Rye. The pickle and homemade kettle chips have OVER the moon!

It's been a year since we last stopped in here ! It has not changed except we grabbed 2 pounds of the Best Corned Beef in Baltimore and a loaf of their Fresh Rye Bread and their Homemade Potato Salad The line to order is always long but moves fairly quickly, service is also always on the money. There is a small parking lot next to the deli, so you really don't need to park on the street, the area is in an older part of the city. Inside has not changed, the area to eat if you choose to do so is rather neat, walls are filled with historic photos over the years, very interesting to check them out. Always Highly Recommend
