Welcome to Union Square's time-traveling treasure chest – the city's oldest Jewish Deli, where breakfast is a historic adventure and portions are generous ! Nestled along Theater Row, we're the last horseshoe counter diner on the wild west coast, so get ready for a nostalgia-filled feast. Founder David Apfelbaum once philosophized, "Food is not a fact of life but a theme of life." We couldn't agree more! Step through our doors, and you'll find yourself in a delicious time warp, where memories are made and calories don't count. Whether you're craving fluffy pancakes, the legendary Corned Beef Hash that's basically edible gold, or the Levantine Shakshuka, we've got your taste buds covered. Come on down, nosh away, and make some memories right here in the 'City-by-the-Bay'.
