The Pastrami Stand

I recently became aware of this vendor when I noticed that they used to operate an outlet near me on a part-time basis. The Pastrami Stand now rotates across different farmers markets and breweries in the local area. On Sundays, they have a canopy set up at the La Jolla Open Aire Farmer's Market. The menu featured two pastrami sandwiches, five types of hot dogs, two styles of pastrami sold by the pound, and matzo ball soup when in season between December and April. There was also a special of the day that was a Chicago style hot dog.The Pastrami Dip was made up of smoked pastrami, yellow mustard, and pickles on a roll that was single dipped in au jus. The Number 18 consisted of classic NY style pastrami piled high on rye bread and topped with deli mustard. Of these two sandwiches, I picked the former. The bread and meat quality were both very good, however the portion size of six inches(?) did not justify a $15 price tag hence a four star rating.

Got a number 18 pastrami sandwich from the pastrami stand at the Leucadia farmers market. Overall it was a greatly good sandwich. Fresh bread and the pastrami had great flavor. If you are a person looking for lean pastrami then this is not the place for you

The Pastrami stand is located at the La Jolla Open Aire Farmer's Market (which is set up on Sundays between 9AM to 1PM). We ordered the Breakfast Pastrami Sandwich ($12.65) which comes with scrambled eggs, classic NY pastrami, and cream cheese, all on a soft everything bagel. It was a very tasty breakfast, but my oh my was the cost overpriced for what you get. However, pastrami in general is a more expensive.

Great sandwiches! Definitely recommend. Only challenge was finding nearby parking. Totally worth the drive around the block!

Whoa, you won't believe what I just had! Pastrami 18 is simply off the charts! I know what you're thinking - pastrami sandwiches are greasy and dry, with tough rye bread. But trust me, this one is a game-changer. The bread was so soft, and the pastrami was perfectly cooked - not too greasy at all. I dare you to try it and tell me it's not the best pastrami sandwich you've ever had!

I had a pastrami sandwich from the Pastrami Stand when they were at the Burgeon Oasis. The sandwich was so delicious that I bought a pound to go and made Rueben sandwiches for my wife and myself 2 days later! This pastrami is the best I've had , outside of New York! I will hunt them down be it at the Oasis or at a farmer's market, in the very near future! FANTASTIC PASTRAMI!
