Description

Step into the past at Eisenberg's Sandwich Shop, when sandwiches weren't made with faddish ingredients like arugula, pesto, and ciabattas. In 1929, New York City was paved with these places. A lonely presence on this stretch of Fifth Avenue among fast-food emporia and pita palaces, it steadfastly retains the standard lunch menu of soups, sandwiches, and sour pickles. The egg salad is creamy and clean-tasting, and only slightly salty. Order it on rye, and strike a blow for heirloom eating.

  • In Praise of the Tuna Sandwich

    In Praise of the Tuna Sandwich

    By Robert Sietsema | Fri, January 11, 2013

  • 2007 | Best place to pretend you're in a movie about New York where an important scene plays out in a tiny coffee shop

    Tiny, enchanting Eisenberg's Sandwich Shop is almost too perfectly cast in the role of a Manhattan diner--its narrow space clad in artfully distressed Formica and chrome, with a counter (state-of-the-art circa 1930) running almost the entire length. How someone labored to make those daily-special signs so homey, so authentic! And the supporting players are, to a person, sublime: waitresses as tough as nails, yet tender as the superlative matzo balls they dish out, and grill men (who... More »

  • 2002 | Best Lime Rickey

    EISENBERG'S SANDWICH SHOP is one of the best places to have lunch ever, because it has a great old New York feeling. Its tuna salad is famous, as are its egg creams. But the lime rickey is nothing to scoff at, and nothing you would normally order, probably, but maybe what's missing from your life. The guy who serves the drinks at the counter is so sweet, he'll make you a second one for free and you can take it with you. Like many old Jewish places in New York, it's totally authentic, aside...
