The Essen Room - Pikesville

I had a strong taste for a good corn beef sandwich. Well this sandwich hit the spot. Plus I bought a slice, big slice of coconut cake. So much love was made with this cake. I will visit again. Thank you for your awesome hospitality.

This is an awesome delicatessen. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Great customer service! The best place to get corned beef, pastrami, turkey, shrimp salad. The desserts are delicious and pickle bar has tasty selections. The catering is excellent as well. The sandwich trays I recently ordered were perfect and came with sides, pickle tray, coke desserts, paper products. The guests loved the food!

First time here and we are hooked. Everything is made in house. The entire staff is top notch. We felt like we were part of the family. This place is extremely busy and once you eat here you will know why. The portions are huge and nothing is held back. You get your moneys worth and then some. Bring your appetite. The hardest part of going here is deciding what to get! Don't leave without getting dessert or take one home. You can taste the love in everything you get.

Everybody knows by now that I love good food. What few people know is that I grew up on Jewish soul food. My mom was a cook at a Jewish catering company where she bought home some of the most delicious fare. So, here?s the skinny. If you want some real good deli and some wonderful motzah ball soup and great pastries (they sell cake by the SLAB), you want the Essen Room. Lots of folks chatting and eating. Great pickle bar too!

My all time favorite Hamentashen.Its buttery,chocolately and sweet triangular filled pocket pastry.Bagel and nova spread are good also.????????????
