The Pastrami Club ( Lauderhill)
***** The Pastrami Club. 5240 North University Drive, Lauderhill, Florida 33351, (954) 748-0001.
Here’s another “out of sight out of mind” joint for you…The Pastrami Club in Lauderhill.
Not gonna name names, but The Pastrami Club is one of but-a small handful of South Florida joints that come even close to being a New York Kosher Style Deli…
If you live in Pastrami Club’s neighborhood (which Jeff Eats doesn’t)- you now know where you can catch a good-deli fix! For reference, yesterday afternoon- a corned beef on rye/pastrami on rye/french fries/Dr. Brown’s cream soda- perfectly hit the spot! By the way, I would’a got a potato knish, but I’m on a diet-and while I’m on the subject of corned beef, you need some fat in the meat for taste, you guys who order lean/or extra lean are just eating sandpaper!

The Pastrami Club is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner. The Pastrami Club (which has been around since 1985), is one of the “best” New York “Kosher Style Delis” in South Florida. Over the years I have “fressed” on this joint’s pastrami, corned beef, turkey (off the frame) and brisket sandwiches and loved each and every bite.
Cardiologists tell you to stay away from joints like this… last week I saw mine stuffing his face with a fatty corned beef on rye with a potato knish. “Do as I say, don’t do as I do.”
I am telling you, that you “gotta” try this joint. The combination of great food and “old” deli decor (red booths and formica tables), will remind you of what delis are “suppose to be all about.”

End of story.
Over the years I’ve eaten at the Pastrami Club many times and the food has always been very good. You are right it’s about as close to a real NY Kosher Style Deli as you’ll come by here in south Florida. You are also right that good corned beef has to be on the fatty side. Without that fat it has very little taste.
