At Sargeās, thereās more to discover beyond your regular sandwich order. Next time you visit, take a look at the menu and consider trying something outside your usual routine.

Some deli favorites go beyond the sandwiches, and for people who grew up around traditional Jewish delis, those dishes can bring back some serious nostalgia.
Think about the foods that have been part of family meals for generations, the flavors you remember from childhood, and the dishes that make a visit to a classic New York deli feel different from an ordinary lunch stop.
At Sargeās, weāre proud of the traditions that helped shape New York deli culture. Thereās a whole world of classic deli food beyond what goes between two slices of rye, and those traditions deserve their moment, too!

Letās give the supporting cast a little credit. š„
Sure, the sandwich might be the main attraction, but a proper New York deli order often comes with a few extras that are just as important. A crisp pickle, a scoop of potato salad, or another favorite on the side can turn a good lunch into the full deli experience.
And everyone has their own way of putting together the perfect order. Some people go straight for the pickle, while others wouldnāt dream of skipping their favorite side.
Whatās your must-have deli side? Let us know in the comments, and letās see which one gets the most love!

āA man who is not touched by the earthy lyricism of hot pastrami, the pungent fantasy of corned beef, pickles, frankfurters, the great l***y impertinence of good mustard is a man of stone and without heart.ā

š„Ŗ Ever wonder how pastrami became a deli legend?
Its roots trace back to Eastern European Jewish food traditions, where meat was preserved and seasoned for flavor. When Jewish immigrants brought those traditions to America in the late 1800s, the preparation evolved. Beef became a popular choice, and brining, spice rubs, smoking, and steaming helped create the tender, flavorful pastrami we know today.
At Sargeās, we believe some history is best enjoyed between two slices of rye. ā¤ļø
