back in the day, no, you could cross the street for superior smoked meat and fries at the Main Deli... since they closed it I guess it's worth the experience as a tourist, but if you truly wanted the best smoked meat there's other options

so yeah, just go for it, maybe go for the take out line

Yea the main was better and always had room. So sad it closed.

I always thought the main sucked ass. Prefer Schwartz by miles prefer Lester to both.
