This place never disappoints! I got a corned beef sandwich, a knish and some 3 cherry hamentash. The hamentash have this shortbread taste and are incredible. The corned beef which I get lean is very good on the rye with deli mustard. I've eaten inside here before and everything is incredible. If you've never been here go. You won't be disappointed!!

The only real Jewish deli in Center City Philadelphia. Perfect!

This deli is famous. Famous for good food, large portions, great desserts. I always have a to-go box and I always take dessert home, because it's too good to leave behind. The dessert portions are also large like the main dishes.

Excellent food & service. Our server was very nice & had a great attitude. He was crazy busy with a table of about 5 women who had him back & forth!

Pastrami great, creamed herring, great, potato pancakes great. What more do you need to know. Oh yeah, order one sandwich as it will feed two!

The wait time was long, and our party of 6 got split in two, but the food and service were incredible. Portion sizes are also enormous!

Been going to Famous for years. Best whitefish salad on poppy and the chocolate cookies with walnuts are to die for!

My husband and I were in town for our 1 year anniversary and my cousins suggested we go there. The staff was very friendly, attentive and fast. Everything was good and nice portion of food.

Came in for some matzo ball soup on a chilly September day. It was delicious and the perfect choice to warm up before continuing on our journey along South St. It has an old school, mellow Jewish deli vibe. Worth a stop.
