Amazing pastrami and wonderful service. Had #54 in 19 style (corned beef/pastrami on rye with Russian dressing, Swiss and coleslaw) and it was excellent. Admittedly, I will try a plain pastrami sandwich with a little mayo and mustard next time and I think I will like that even more. Portions are huge and you could probably split a sandwich, small fries with another and be pretty happy with it.Service is very nice and the interior is pleasantly old fashioned. Looking forward to trying desserts next time.

Love this restaurant! The look, feel and atmosphere truly make this an iconic LA restaurant. My wife thinks it’s been than Katz Deli in New York and I don’t disagree. I got the #10 - Pastrami and Swiss Cheese Russian Style Dressing and my wife got the Pastrami and Chopped Liver with Russian Style Dressing. Both excellent sandwiches. Love how they cut the pastrami thick and not shaved thin. We got a side of Cole slaw and potato salad. Both had a little sweetness to them, delicious. To finish off things we had their carrot cake, outstanding and a big enough slice for sharing.

Best pastrami in Los Angeles by far!

Heard it gets busy but it was not too busy for Monday lunch rush. Ordered a number 1 and could not finish it despite being super yummy. Mom and Pop dinner feel and the service was excellent and attentive.This is definitely a special treat sandwich when you're dying for some meat.Will definitely go back.Dietary restrictions: Had lots of dairy-free options which was a bonus.

The Best Pastrami sandwiches on the West coast!!! I love good food, good service, and a clean restaurant. It has it all. However, the location may make you change your mind, but you shouldn't. Langer's is a landmark, and in my opinion, much better than one of los angeles' other over-rated landmark eatery ( I will not disclose). I love the friendly staff too. The menu has other delectable dishes it is a deli after all. I sometimes order breakfast or a pattymelt ( it's so cheesy ). If you do go, say hi to Frank, Sue, Kevin, or Lupe. All of the servers here are great! I don't know everyone, name...my bad. I only review restaurants, coffee shops, and retailers if they are the absolute best. And Langer's is in my top ten.

What can one say that hasn't been said. The #19 is hands down the best Pastrami Sandwich. One might think there is too much going on, but you'd be wrong. Try it and enjoy the symphony of flavors that your palate will enjoy. I was skeptical myself and proven very wrong. My only response to my wife was: I think I could cry right now. There are many other items to choose from and various forms of the Pastrami Sandwich, so have at it.A side note, I thought maybe it was too good to be true, so we came back a few days later. This time no tears just taste buds of pure enjoyment. I will now make every excuse to head down for this fluffy soft Rye bread sandwich & bring friends to share in the experience. Thank you for 76 years of hard work and continued service. I'm very sad I did not know about this place sooner.Parking: If your eating at Langers you get 90 min of free parking. It's a block away but your best choice with a very hard-working attendant watching your vehicle while your stuffing ones face with a #19
