SHHHH! Now I won't be able to get a table.

Liebman’s Deli in Riverdale NY and now in Ardsley NY gets $22 for a pastrami sandwich. Both Katz Deli and Liebman’’s sandwiched are memorable.

Gee, I wonder why they left Riverdale for Ardsley?

Ardsley is a second location for Liebman's Deli. All of the Ben’s Deli locations (including Scarsdale) closed because the family wanted out of the business. Hope they make it because Kosher and Kosher style delis in the NY metro area are drying up.

We just went last week and really enjoyed it. Bartender was attentive. Beer was cold. I had a burger that was very good. Wife had a chicken sandwich that had some really good crunchy topping. Not really sure what it was but it was different and tasty. We will be back for sure.

It's the exact menu from Eaton's Beach that most of us have been enjoying for decades.

Not an amazing view compared to anywhere outside of Central Florida but the food is great, service is great and they offer a wide range of price points so you can decide if you're spending $30 or much more.

Pastrami is all he does. Its worth the drive. His regulars know to check his availability on the website before making the drive to Orlando because he's a one-man show. Also, if you want to order in bulk (get an extra pound or two to take home), you have to let him know in advance. You can thank me later or just bring back an extra sandwich for me.
Truth! I've been there twice, on my way back from the airport...

Delish!!!

It's the exact same menu as Eaton's Beach. Same average food, same high prices. I do like the bar better at Ski Beach, but I don't frequent either Ski Beach or Eaton's Beach too often. Far too many restaurants in the area with much better food and prices.

Would be happy to hear about a similar restaurant in the area with much better food and prices.
