The food is amazing. Same tier as NYC, Montreal. More on the dry side as most of the authentic Midwest like drier meat in general. The vegetable and tomatoes slices was surprisingly top tier quality, and was actually tasty on it’s own. Their supplier treats them very well.
Don’t worry, it’s not just you- it’s very overstimulating the 1st time there. It’s gonna be awkward. The staff knows it’s awkward, and they’ll keep working on their own things until you’re feeling ready. I truly do appreciate that!! I don’t feel the pressure to rush, and I’m guided throughout, one ingredient at a time with a written chart for the more “picture-minded” such as myself.
I’ve been very impressed after and ever since! The comfort improved every visits since. Portion size is worth it. I also appreciate that there’s bacon in the breakfast sandwich (Sorry, born in NY!). The boxed and packaged products were interesting, but I was afraid to disturb the decoration setup, and had a sense of uncertainty if anything were too stale (I’m sure it wasn’t!!!).
the soups are perfect for fast microwave meals, or broth for extra stuff from the fridge.
Todah! / Thank you!

We shared an extra lean corned beef/pastrami combo sandwich on rye, with a side sesame bagel and cookie. The sandwich was outstanding. The meat was very lean and incredibly flavorful. Plenty for 2 to share. The cookie was delicious and tasted of natural ingredients that out taste buds could easily recognize. The bagel was a bit disappointing. It tasted a bit dry, like it sat out for a while.

Had the best everything bagel with cured salmon and cream cheese with chives!! Also, bought smoked salmon and white fish for home. Loved the smoked salmon more. Didn’t disappoint! Would visit again!

2 1/2 hour drive saw them on a Google search. Not to busy today. The counter people were all very helpful for the out of towners. No place like this where we are. I was overwhelmed with options. Decided on the New Jersey By Pass. Yep it was fantastic. My bride had a loony Tuna. She loved it our cousin had the uncle Lenny it was pretty good. . Large and filling. Took home some pastries. Got some black and whites for the trip home . Should have bought more. We will try the others later. Pretty pricey trip but we knew it would be. Hope to go back in the future.

Felt like I was at home. Everyone was so friendly and personable. Now the food was out of this world!! Tried the Bypass, couldn’t finish half. Don’t let the prices scare you off, such an enormous sandwich. Let’s also talk about the Old Pickles. Must try.

Delicious food. Outstanding corned beef and chopped liver. Shopping there is always an adventure. #iraeats #iraeats1

My wife and I moved from Brooklyn to a Northern Illinois suburb so white that you need sunglasses to go outside, even at night. It’s so white that when I went to the grocery store and ask where the knishes were, I was asked “What’s a knish?”.
So when my stepdaughter suggested a two hour drive to Skokie for Deli, I went for it with low expectations.
The minute we stepped into Kaufman’s, I knew we were in the right place. After buying up their stock of Dr. Brown’s Cel-Ray, buying some amazing baked goods and a couple pounds of pastrami to bring home, we decided to get a few hot pastramis on rye (with mustard) with “old pickles” and of course, a cold Cel-Ray. I took my first bite…and smiled. It was tender, just juicy (fatty) enough, just the perfect crust and bark…perfection! (although I wish they had cut it a bit thicker.) The rye bread could have come from any NYC bakery, a miracle since I haven’t had good bread since we moved here. Even the pickle was great! I’m telling you, this hot pastrami sandwich was on a par with any I had at Sarge’s, 2nd Avenue or Liebman’s. Four hour round trip or no four hour round trip, I will definitely be back!

Make sure you stop at the STOP sign near the front door and take a ticket. They don’t care about who is first in line – only care about what ticket number you have in your hand. We waited in line with many others, but then we’re all told to get a ticket – and ended up getting served last (even though we were next in line). Guess I need to observe the rules. And NO matza ball soup?!?!?

Kaufman’s Bagel & Delicatessen outdoes itself in every aspect of a 100% rating. The customer service is friendly, fast and simple. Take a number, see the menu, let them know your order with your number and wait. The decorations fit the place just right and there is much to choose from. Most importantly is the extensive variety of deli meats, cheese, sandwiches, bagels and sweets (among many more options). I purchased some bagels and as I was looking over the selections I was surprised at their options of bakery sweets. Next time I will definitely bring something back and hopefully get more pictures. After I payed there where some good seats to choose from. The reuben sandwich was out of this world. Not only was there a very generous amount of corned beef, the dressing, sauerkraut, and cheese complimented the main taste of the meat without overpowering it. I tried a few pieces on its own and almost went back to get some more to go. The bread was also just right enough to absorb the juice while still maintaining its shape. I will definitely be coming back here soon, and highly recommend it for great sandwiches, deli meats and desserts. 10/10

I had what might be the most perfect corned beef sandwich of my life. The corned beef—tender, flavorful, stacked high—came on rye bread unlike any I’ve ever seen. Perfection!
I washed it all down with a cold can of Dr. Brown’s Cel-Ray soda, which cut through the richness like a crisp, herby exclamation point.
And let’s not forget dessert: cookies, pastries etc … amazing!!
Kaufman’s isn’t just a deli—it’s an institution! Whether you’re a first-timer or returning after years, do yourself a favor and go!!
You’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit.
