This spot is a true gem. Everything I tried was tasty and satisfying. The servings are massive and the prices are very fair, so you really feel like you are getting great value. The Hat is a reliable choice, and every item from the chili to the pastrami is packed with flavor. You really cannot go wrong here.

Heard about The Hat from multiple family members and, loving pastrami, had to stop by on our trip to the area.
First of all, the pastrami was delicious. Moist, tender, and we’ll portioned. Upon requesting extra pickles, I was delighted to be served a full handful, which was as satisfying as it is uncommon.
The only area for disappointment for was that the french fries were sadly under seasoned.
Overall I would highly recommend and am actually sad I never heard of it before we moved out of state of over a decade ago.

Been coming to this location for years. Staff is always polite and food is always hot and super filling. Pastrami is well worth the price. Grilled cheese was stuffed with cheese. Usually always crowd when I come in but today it was slow. Which was nice change lol

Not going to lie. I grew up eating the hat every Friday! Tastes just like it did 20+ years ago! Get yourself chili cheese fries with pastrami, pickles and onions! Will change your life and your relationship with the toilet ❤️

In from out of town and The Hat was recommended by several people. I can say this with 100% certainty, their pastrami sandwich is the best. Their motto is that it’s world famous and they ain’t lyin’! The fries were also fresh and crispy, but not overdone. If you find yourself in the vicinity of one, I suggest you go there at your first opportunity.

This place is an absolute classic. The food is delicious. The portions are HUGE, and the prices are reasonable; you definitely receive the value for your money. You can’t go wrong with the Hat, from the chili to the pastrami it’s all delicious!

Had the Pastrami Sandwich and it was excellent! The meat was the best you can get! Moist and flavorful! I’ve been coming here since the 1990’s at least. The sandwich is only about 2/3rds the size that it used to be, but that’s the economy in California! Unfortunately i live 20 miles away now, but will be back as soon as I’m in the area again! Their Steak Sandwich was always the best also! ❤️

My sister and I went out on a rainy day n decided to stop at the Hat cuz sis wanted some Chili Cheese Fries with Pastrami on top. We ordered these fries n 2 medium drinks for just under $30. . The fries were really good. Eating out is not cheap, right? Good stuff tho. People were consistently stopping in throughout our entire visit. I’m going back for more! ♂️

I’ve been to this establishment a few times and if you like pastrami and chili, you probably enjoy your meal here. My opinion just a little bit too expensive, but with the amount of the food they give you. It’s probably worth it. The workers are friendly and courteous and you get your meal in no time the pastrami is good and so is the chili. I’ve ordered a few different food items and they’re all good. The structure is fairly sized plenty of tables to sit down and enjoy your meal inside or outside dining . There’s plenty of parking with a handicap stalls near the entrance.

The pastrami burger is delicious but my personal favorites are the chili cheese burger and the chili tamales. I also love that they’re open til 1am because I work nights and get out late from work.
