The Pastrami Queen is a Jewish deli on the Upper East Side of Manhattan which opened as Pastrami King in Williamsburg, Brooklyn before moving to Kew Gardens, Queens[2] in 1961.[3] The kosher restaurant opened in 1956.[4] They've since opened (2020)[5] a location on the Upper West Side[6] considered their flagship location.[3] They took over the former Fine & Schapiro, a long-time kosher deli in the space.[6]

Reviews

[edit]

In 2016, Anthony Bourdain said: "If I'm away from New York long enough, I need a correct pastrami sandwich from either Pastrami Queen or Katz's. And you're not getting that anywhere else, as far as I'm concerned."[3]
