Eating at Katz's Delicatessen like Harry Met Sally in New York is not just for movie buffs, but foodies too. The sandwiches are huge and the kindness of those who work here is one more reason to have lunch here in New York.
Harry, this is Sally is a beautiful film, full of humor and intense moments that, beyond any dialogue, remained in the memory of the spectators for the diner scene.
Da Chicago a New York and in so many other moments in life, Harry and Sally find themselves making speeches and living different moments in their history more or less together. During one of the many meetings Harry and Sally arrive at the famous diner and one of the takes place here more memorable scenes and entertaining from the history of cinema.

The diner today is a destination for tourists and onlookers who find here Harry and Sally's table and the next table where the lady, the mother of director Rob Reiner, asked after the performance of Mag Ryan: "what the young lady took".
Why eat at Katz's Delicatessen
Katz's Delicatessen is not only for fans of the famous film, but also for those who want to eat well. Dozens of sandwiches can be ordered here and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. It will not be difficult to exchange a few words, if not a few laughs with those who work behind the counter and prepare the sandwiches. Among other things, they are almost all men and are a real squadron. Yes, because here on weekends the place is full, that's why I recommend you come during the week, maybe for lunch, just like I did. No queues and lots of good food!
What to eat at Katz's Delicatessen?
I tried the very classic pastrami, but I also tasted the beef sandwich. Sandwiches aren't exactly cheap, but you have to be very hungry to eat a whole one and you'll be hungry for quite a while, because they're huge. The classic pastrami sandwich is the one that comes up most of all because it has a cost of $ 18.45. I only ate the sandwich, because I couldn't try anything else, drinks as usual in America you pay only once and then you can drink as many times as you want. However, if you have tasted salads, desserts or made breakfast here, let me know because I'm very curious :)
A tip for eating at Katz's
More like a recommendation. Just entered grab your ticket now. There is always a person who checks that everyone takes the ticket at the entrance, but if you already know it, avoid being tourists of the situation. You don't pay when you order indeed, but at the checkout at the end before you leave. The ticket will be used by those who take the order to mark everything on this coupon, in the end you will have to deliver it and pay based on what you have taken.
But what is pastrami?
The pastrami is a type of meat , spicy, smoked, which Americans usually eat in two slices of rye bread, a little mustard and lots of pickles. The diner at Katz's Delicatessen is not very inviting, it is a trivial diner like there are hundreds in America. But you want for the film that was set here different ago, you want for the still acceptable prices and you want for the menu, definitely excellent, this place is a gem in the heart of New York that should not be missed once you get here.
But you have you ever eaten it? Would you eat it? Katz's Delicatessen is now very famous among tourists who arrive here just pushed by the film that made this place really famous with the famous scene. Once you get here, however, many are pleasantly surprised and not only because this place really exists (as you can see in the map below), but also because it seems to eat really well. One of the things I like the most at Katz's Delicatessen is its pastrami.
