You can't go wrong with a salad plate with chopped liver or egg salad, a stack of fresh rye bread and some pickles at Katz's, especially late at night. The Reuben is their specialty.

2007 | Best Hot Dog

Let's start with the buns here. Katz's uses a rich, yellow, brioche-style bun to hold an all-beef wiener that snaps when you bite it. Cover that with a wad of caramelized onions and sauerkraut, and you have the makings of a damn good hot dog. If you're a purist, you can order the dog plain and squeeze mustard on it. Katz's is always open, so you can satisfy your hot dog craving whenever you want. And lucky for us, it's also a bar. You can wash down your pickles with an assortment of... More »
2006 | Best Late-Night Restaurant

Rude waiters who keep forgetting the pickles, obnoxious drunks at the bar and lousy, overpriced sandwiches -- is this an authentic New York deli, or what We always order a salad plate with chopped liver or egg salad, a stack of fresh rye bread and some pickles -- and then we make our own sandwiches.

2001 | Best Deli

Houston's hankering for international status took a subtle stride when the crazy Katz's crew branched out from Austin. World-class credentials will ever be debated, but one indisputable definition is that a particular urban area must have a full-service, round-the-clock deli to dish up quality cuisine when the yen strikes. The Bayou City now has it. While other delis in the area may outdo Katz's in selected specialties, the father-son team of Marc and Barry Katz is right on target with an... More »

By Joanna O'Leary | Fri, October 15, 2010

I think I found the most overpriced, underwhelming drink in town. Enticed by the "2 for $10" deals offered in celebration of Katz's tenth anniversary, I went there for a discounted sandwich and some ... More »

When I went to Katz's this past weekend, I knew I would get the onion rings, not because they're particularly amazing but because I had been craving fried batter. The more challenging decision was wh... More »
Katz's Deli's

By Chris Boyd | Thu, January 11, 2007

Despite its status as one of the largest cities in America, Houston has surprisingly few 24-hour establishments whose main trade doesn't involve pornography or "tobacco pipes." Katz's Deli (616 Westheimer, 713-521-3838) is a welcome exception to t... More »
