Get Your New York Deli Fix At LA's Famous Pico Kosher Deli

Where: 8826 W Pico Blvd [map], Los Angeles, CA, United States, 90035

In Los Angeles there are delis, there are delis, and then there are the Places Where The Jews Eat. Pico Kosher Deli, which sits just a few blocks north of LA's heavily Orthodox Beverlywood district, definitely falls into that last category. It's the oldest kosher deli in the city and, unlike some other "Jewish-style" delis, you'll find nary a trace of dairy in the kitchen. Bacon, it goes without saying, is literally and metaphorically traife.

The deli is small, with an L-shaped counter in the front and a dining area to the left that you have to walk around a wall to reach. They've only got a handful of tables and booths back there, and there's no way they can accommodate more than fifty or sixty customers.

Given that PKD regularly ranks as one of the top 5 LA delis, things can get very crowded around lunchtime.
