This cozy Brooklyn deli serves up incredible Montreal-style smoked meat sandwiches, hearty brisket platters, and comforting matzo ball soup, drawing foodies from all over.
"Boerum Hill’s most bodacious deli serves up killer smoked meats among other treats whose caloric content rivals a week’s worth of eating. This is Montreal Jewish fare, the stuff comfort food dreams are made of. Think of thin slices of corned beef piled high, topped with kraut and Russian dressing, blanketed in melted Swiss and wedged between toasted pumpernickel. Side dishes are as serious as the main ones, like that Canadian classic poutine, finished in a number of ways, including cheese curds, gravy, eggs, and even chicken schnitzel. Still hungry? They have hot dogs.The tiny space gets lots of traffic, so those who can’t find a seat along the counter or trio of communal tables can feast at home with takeout procured from the sidewalk window." - Michelin Inspector

"Mile End Sandwich Shop, Noho by Carbone Smolan Agency. House-smoked meats are the specialty at Mile End, served either on a platter or sandwich. Paired with a few briny pickles or a side of the irresistible poutine, and the result is a well-rounded, inventive and hearty Jewish-inspired feast. Located in a former hardware store, Mile End's dining room is casual, with bare-bone décor and just a few tables that fill up quickly, especially during weekend brunch hours."
"It’s possible that deep-frying anything in your apartment gives you anxiety. You’re thinking about the smell clinging to the curtains, you’re thinking about the smoke alarm, you’re thinking, “How did my mom do this all the time.” Luckily, this Montreal-style Jewish deli in Boerum Hill has an entire menu of Hanukkah specials, so you can avoid cooking. Go to their website to place your order for things like chicken schnitzel fingers, matzo ball soup, braised brisket with jus, sufganiyot, and latkes with caviar creme fraiche or whitefish mousse." - Hannah Albertine
"Mile End’s Rosh Hashanah specials are available for pickup or delivery from September 4th-8th, in case you accidentally booked a trip to the Catskills on Rosh Hashanah and now feel the sort of immense guilt your grandmother worked so hard to instill in you. Go to their website to place your order before September 2nd for things like brisket, noodle kugel, and a serving of pickles meant for eight people that you might eat alone at midnight." - Hannah Albertine
