Mensch Jewish Delicatessen in Vancouver offers a full range of traditional deli classics, with a special focus on homemade pastrami and lox. The New York-style pastrami is a standout dish, praised for its rich flavor and quality. The menu is simple but well-executed, with options like Reubens, smoked salmon, and babka. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make for a welcoming experience. While some find the prices a bit high, the overall consensus is that the food is delicious and worth the cost. The new Gastown location is spacious and accommodating, attracting both locals and visitors alike. If you're looking for a taste of authentic Jewish soul food in Vancouver, Mensch's is a top choice.
