Canter's Deli a Los Angeles Institution! A Must Visit & Eat there Destination Place

By
Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties 01238708

Canter's Deli a Los Angeles Institution. If you have been there then you know what I mean. If you have never been than you must schedule a time. Lucky for you they are open 24hrs and 7 days a week, so you do not have an excuse about the time constraints.

If you decide to eat at the Restaurant section, make sure you bring your appetite. I am not exaggerating the sandwiches are half a foot or higher. If you have been craving for a great corned beef or pastrami sandwich, Canter's is the place. My favorite is the matzo ball soup, bigger than a Major League Approved Baseball, soft and moist as a good matzo ball should be.

Now if a sit down meal is not in your schedule, than check out the take-out counter, there are always five or six people in front of you. They have everything the restaurant has to offer and then some. I love their lox as well as their pickles.

More often I just run in to get their pastries, the best value for your money is their oversized tastiest Macaroon you ever had and if you want to be decadent then get the chocolate covered ones.

Keep in mind there is a different crowd after midnight LA's who is who can be found from the Rock Stars to the many other celebrities that are out after the bewitching hour.

Now if you love history, then you will be impressed that Canter's has been serving  Los Angeles since 1931 to famous regulars such as Elizabeth Taylor, John Travolta, Prince, Muhammad Ali, Henry Winkler and Rodney Dangerfield to name a few.

Hello Endre - A wonderful post and congrats on the feature! I was in Hollywood shooting photos and videos of the stars in the sidewalks, Santa Monica Pier and more. I will make a point to share them in "The Rain" some time, and I sure love the area where you live and would like to rent a small condo for a month out of the year.

VB ;o)

Endre - OY VEY!!! It's been ages since I've been to Canters.  It is definitely a great place for food and as a former after midnight fan, I have so many late night memories of that place from my former life.

Hello Endre and no I didn't eat at the Pier but I took some wonderful photos and video. Next time I visit I would like to take the Hollywood Stars tour and shoot some video, I think it would be very interesting. I would also like to drive into Beverly Hills and take some photos & video.

I’ve never eaten there because I am familiar with its history and figured it was too expensive for lil’ ol’ me.

Jim, ironically compared to the restaurants with the Celebrity Chef status, the place is inexpensive, the desert (bakery) is less expensive than other bakeries:))

Endre,  Now, I'm starving!  Yum, it all sounds great.  I was thinking about that lox on a bagel with the matzo ball soup and a pastry for dessert.  Wonder if I could catch a plane this late???
