We are honored to be ranked #1 in The Infatuation’s “LA Deli Power Rankings” again!
“There’s nothing more liberating than seeing the look on a New Yorker’s face when someone says LA has the best pastrami. So we’ll go ahead and say it again – LA has the best pastrami. And all you need to do is head down to Alvarado and 7th, and pay a quick visit to Langer’s for proof.”
From Daily Bulletin columnist David Allen comes this amazing find from DC Comics’ “Mister Miracle” comics – an obvious visit by characters to Langer’s Delicatessen ordering #19s and cabbage soup!

We are proud and grateful to be named once again to Eater’s 38 Essential Los Angeles Restaurants (Winter 2017-18). Thank you, Eater LA and thank you to our valued customers who have supported us into this, our 71st year of operation at 7th and Alvarado.
Yes, the #19 pastrami sandwich is an amazing sandwich, but the pure pastrami on house-based rye is simplicity at its best. There’s a reason why people make pilgrimages to try their pastrami and even corned beef: there is no better version anywhere in town, and perhaps even in the country. Pro tip: try the #54, a blend of both the pastrami and corned beef in one sandwich. And don’t skip the rest of the classic Jewish deli menu — it’s all very well executed in one of the best day-time dining rooms in town.

hanks to Cool Material for including our legendary #19 hot pastrami sandwich in their “Sandwich Bucket List” – be sure to check it out, there are some truly amazing sandwiches from around the United States on this list!
Don’t let the cryptic name fool you, you’re very familiar with the No. 19—you just haven’t had one this good. The No. 19 is composed of hand-cut pastrami, coleslaw, Russian dressing, and Swiss cheese, and it’s all loaded between two pieces of double-baked rye bread. It’s a fantastic take on the classic Rachel. We’re guessing it’s the only hot pastrami sandwich to ever receive praise from Nora Ephron in The New Yorker—and the late writer was spot on.
We are proud to be a part of this new Grubhub 2017 highlights video showcasing how Grubhub restaurant partners can be a part of something bigger than ourselves. We hope you enjoy it (watch all the way to the end!).

We are extremely proud to have been named to The Infatuation‘s “The Los Angeles Greatest Hits List” of favorite restaurants. Looking through the list makes you realize how unique Los Angeles is when it comes to food culture – and how lucky we are for its amazing range and diversity. Thank you, The Infatuation, for including us.
One thing that never fits into the common stereotype of LA is just how good our deli scene is. We have a handful of delicatessens we confidently know could go toe-to-toe with the best in America, but Langer’s is our undoubted leader. Their #19 pastrami sandwich is the stuff of legend. The best part of Langer’s, though? Its Westlake location leaves it utterly devoid of the brochure tourists and Instagramming lifestyle bloggers that ruin other places like this. Go enjoy an unadulterated classic.
Thank you so much – it’s a great honor to be included in such a list. – The Langers
We are honored to have been named to Jonathan Gold’s “101 Best Restaurants 2017” in the Los Angeles Times. It is a major honor and we are grateful. Thank you, Jonathan – The Langers
LA WANTS DEEP DISH! It’s the LA Dodgers against the Chicago Cubs in the NLCS, and once again, Chief Beck and Superintendent of Police Johnson are wagering their favorites for city pride. If LA wins, Chicago sends Chief Beck deep dish pizza. If Chicago wins (UNLIKELY!), Los Angeles sends Langer’s world-famous #19 pastrami sandwiches. Who will win? #pastrami

We are proud and thrilled to have been named to Eater’s “20 Most Iconic Restaurant Dishes, Fall 2017” for Los Angeles. Here is their take on our legendary #19 sandwich:
There is no more iconic single sandwich in Los Angeles (and no better pastrami sandwich in America) than the #19 at Langer’s. It’s the absolute pinnacle of a Jewish deli staple, complete with mile-high stacks of pastrami, Swiss cheese, and coleslaw on rye.
Thank you again, Eater! – The Langers
