Description

Homesick Noo Yawkers make lunch here a standing-room-only affair, scarfing down the fluffy, delicious matzo balls, the three-inch-thick pastrami sandwiches (served with Hebrew National mustard, flown in from New York), the Hungarian-style stuffed cabbage, the Hungarian goulash or the strong flavor of the barley-based varnishkas. The New York cheesecake is dense but slightly fluffy on the inside.

  • 2011 | Best Jewish Deli

    When it comes to the canon of New York-style Jewish delicatessen food, it ultimately boils down to that old gastronomic proverb: It ain't the meat, it's the motion. Any of the top deli owners in this country -- whether in New York, New Jersey, Chicago, Palm Springs, or Houston -- will tell you the same thing: They all buy their smoked fish from the same group of purveyors based in New York, and they all prepare their meats -- pastrami and corned beef -- using roughly the...

  • 2009 | Best Jewish Deli

    Ziggy Gruber is a third-generation deli man whose family opened the Rialto, the first deli on Broadway, in 1927. After working in a string of Gruber family kosher delis in various NYC suburbs, he opened his own deli, Ziggy G's in Los Angeles, which became enormously popular. After the Los Angeles deli got into a real estate dispute, Ziggy moved to Houston and teamed up with local talent Kenny Friedman to open Kenny & Ziggy's here. In the ten years since it first opened, Kenny &... More »

  • 2008 | Best Jewish Deli

    Would it kill you to eat a little something, or do you enjoy breaking your mother's heart If that sounds familiar, you'll be right at home at Kenny & Ziggy's, where authentic New York deli food is done up right. Dig into a gargantuan Reuben or corned beef sandwich. Get a bagel topped with any of the stunning smoked fish, with perhaps a side of matzoh ball soup. The enormous desserts are a must-try, especially the golf ball-size macaroons, colossal layer cakes, or an éclair that... More »

  • 2006 | Best Deli

    At Kenny and Ziggy's, it's not just about the sandwiches -- although a certain sense of accomplishment follows packing away a pound of corned beef. It's really about the comfort food. The chicken soup with kreplach is the best way to make it through flu season, and the chopped liver is classic. From blintzes to potato latkes with applesauce, all of the traditional deli fare appears on the menu. If you make it to dessert, cheesecake is the obvious choice. But if you're too full to move, grab... More »

  • 2005 | Best Deli

    If the phrase "Gimme some tongue" flows freely from your lips, then you're gonna love Kenny & Ziggy's, where there's more than just tongue. Here you'll also find the tastiest corned beef, pastrami and chopped liver as well as some outstanding smoked fish, such as sturgeon, sable and whitefish, all sold by the pound. Two different kinds of pickles are available: one sour, the other half-sour. Too lazy to make your own sandwiches Then let the counter staff oblige. Here, they have everything... More »

  • 2000 | Best Deli

    Until recently, Houston lacked an authentic New York-style deli, despite the size of its Jewish community and a natural customer base (a million people who like eating giant heaps of meat in one sitting). Sure, we had our share of fine sandwich shops or bagel joints, but nothing that combined all the elements: an oversize menu, several dozen variations of deli meat sandwiches with cute names, a container of fantastic pickles on every table, and all the classic old-world dishes including...
