Harold's is quite unique. There used to be two locations, one in Parsippany, NJ and the one in Edison (Parsippany location closed about 10 yrs ago.). They are known for their HUGE sandwiches. You got the Junior, that's the baby. The "wow" factor is getting the next size up. You know it's big because they give you almost another loaf of rye to make additional sandwiches. It is really a unique experience getting the large size. Oh if you think that's big you should see the size of their triple-decker sandwiches, that will blow your mind. Their prices have gone up quite a bit since the last time I was there. Their Matzo Ball soup is crazy. You missed out on that one. The matzo balls are the size of a baseballs. The bowl it comes in serves at least 2-3 ppl. Almost everyone that leaves has a "doggie-bag". Glad you enjoyed it.

I've been to both places a number of times. Harold used to be the General Manager of The Carnegie for many years. Prior to that he owned the Montclair Diner in Verona. Nobody knows the deli business better than Harold's. So, the big differences between Harold's and Katz's are how the corned beef and pastrami are sliced - Machine vs hand sliced. The amount of meat on the sandwich - Harold's gives you more meat - Katz's is produced on site. Harold's uses the same production process that made the Carnegie's corned beef and pastrami. The price of the sandwich at Harold's is more expensive. Harold's, post COVID, I believe is back to giving its customers a free salad bar? Free slices of rye bread, health salad, pickle bar, sour tomatoes, et al. IMHO, Harold's pastrami and corned is better, but the big reasons for me are the amount of meat he gives you and I like my deli machine sliced. Also, the desserts available at Harold's are amazing. they are conversation pieces. Obviously, both are great. Oh, and there's free parking at Harold's.

At one point There was a gap from when I was 17 to when I was 34 and when I went to get my food the guy making it for me recognized me, called me by name, remembered my Dad (they had they same name) and I was blown away. A relative from Philly got a lot of our family to go to Harolds. Not one of us left unhappy!

2nd Avenue in Manhattan is better than both Harrold's and Katz's and it's actually Kosher, unlike the the other places. You should have showed the case that holds the cakes when you walked in to show the size of the cakes. Harrold's is known for the crazy huge portion sizes because they are the only Jewish style deli I know of that serves food family style. You must have seen a few tables that were served sandwiches which were literally piled high with 2 foot tall sandwiches or a slice of cake the same size. Even the Matzoh Ball soup has a Matzoh Ball the size of a softball in it. By the way, if you didn't like the bread that came with your sandwich, you could have gone to the pickle bar and gotten different bread. Besides pickles, there is an assortment of free bread. When I first went to Harrold's, since they close somewhat early, they put out fresh bagels at the pickle bar and the owner, who is a super nice guy, encouraged us to take as much as we wanted to take home and gave us bags. The food is good at Harrold's, it's not the best Kosher style deli in the world but one of the reasons I love to go is to see what other people are eating and look at the huge portion sizes. It's a lot of fun!

It’s the best Jewish deli in America .. worked sanitation for 20+ years in NYC and we would go to Harold’s at least once a week and if you think the sandwich’s are huge you should get breakfast, they used to have 32 egg omelette’s and when you order bacon you literally get 1lb lol and there matzoh ball soup comes in a bowl that is freaking huge lol … but the two things they are famous for is there pastrami sandwiches and there pickle bar …., people used to try to take tons of pickles to go do of course they had to change up there rules so now you can only leave with the pickles left on your plate .. yes a single sandwich is around 18$ now I am not sure it’s been 5+ years since I moved to Florida and when I left sandwiches were 14 just going to 15 ..but when you order a sandwich you literally get 1 1/2 pounds of meat plus you can take a loaf of there insane bread to go so 1 sandwich can feed 3 hungry men or 1 sandwich can last a week of leftovers…. But what makes it the best Jewish deli is the fact that Katz and others price gouged their customers to the point only wealthy people in manhattan can afford there food …. Plus go an order one pastrami sandwich from Katz and it’s 25 bucks and you get one small rolled up sandwich they roll the meat to make it look big but it’s small

And personally I thought it was much better than either. Unfortunately, it was closed some years ago. Obviously, people need some instruction before ordering in a Kosher place. But it's worth it.

Wonderful restaurant!! There were 5 of us and we did the two tower sandwich and we stuffed ourselves and still brought lots home . The pickle bar is awesome!

I live in NJ, and Harold's is my family's go-to pastrami deli; I often visit once a month. 😋😋😋😋

I been to this deli several times when I lived in NYC and it's absolutely the best. Since I moved to LI haven't been in a while. I can only wish Harold"s would come to LI. I guaratee they would do great

Harold’s great for dinner. They give you a whole rye and pounds of corn beef. You share it. The matzoh ball is like a bowling ball. Go back at dinner. As for another deli try Ben and Irv’s in Huntingdon Valley PA Just north of Philly near Bucks County Oh and EAGLES this weekend

I just went there yesterday, place is excellent! You need to go back and get their Matzah Ball soup- the size is actually conical!

I have heard this place is awesome and the food looks amazing. I've got serious cravings now. If you are in NYC and looking for great Jewish deli, skip Katz (Seriously)and head to Sarge's on 3rd Ave. 💯

Sarge's is the best CB sandwich in NYC.!!!

Great place, excellent video. You may have done yourself a disservice by not ordering one of the larger sandwiches; the portions are where Harold's really shines. If you're looking for more good Jewish deli's in Jersey, try The Kosher Nosh in Glen Rock. Their sandwiches are excellent, and their pea soup is the best!

I need that hot dog! Great review as always, but I don't think I'll drive to NJ for corned beef. However, a pickle bar is most certainly a different story! Yummy!

Also, try Ben's Kosher NY Deli, Bayside. I grew up going there, and it's only 5 minutes from my house.

Price is crazy! Stay away, your in Edison NJ . Give me a break, what else are you going to do there? Go to the Mall after you eat? Great atmosphere! 😂

Hi UA, if I was in Jersey I’d be there for that pickle bar! The rest looked very good but just on sight the bread (not the rye) looked sus. I checked with my friend in NJ and he’s a regular. He agrees about the pickle bad. I’ve never seen one like that. Look in your grocery store and see if they have Dave’s Famous Pickles. Such spicy great pickles. It’s a West Coast chain but non-refrigerated pickles can travel. As I said when you’re in L.A. next, Brent’s Deli in Northridge. Their rye is double baked made by them and awesome. Their pastrami and corned beef are off the hook and their Black Pastrami Reuben is to die for. Their Cabbage Beef soup is amazing, too. Get back here already! LOL.

Good knowledge, what are your next Two favorite la deli’s?

@@brandoncarpenter9681 oy! So many are gone now. I’m on the west side so schlepping to Northridge takes traffic coordination and timing. Juniors, Jerry’s & Zucky’s all gone over the years. Fromin’s in Santa Monica still decent and familiar, best Cole Slaw winner IMHO. Langer’s, Factors and Nate & Al are difficult so I haven’t been. (I think I went to N&A once when I worked in BH, not memorable.) I don’t deli a lot, cost, but when I do I schlep to Northridge but never alone, not worth wasting a trip. How did I forget Canter’s, yes Canter’s rates and they recently opened a small version not far from me.

Hot dog looked warmed over a couple of times. How much was it? Your videos are interesting!
