Best Deli: Kahn's Deli
Best of Houston® 2004, The Houston Press

"Mike Kahn is his own man. He takes sandwich-making seriously, but approaches it with the free-wheeling swagger of a Texan whose family has been in the business for 50 years.
The Olajuwon Special is roughly the circumference of your average Sunday paper. "
Kathi Mosbacher, The Houston Chronicle Dining Guide

"The Olajuwan Special combined many layers of hot (and lean) corned beef smothered in mild sauerkraut with two layers of split knockwurst topped with mustard and Russian dressing on rye for an excellent flavor.
To be completely honest, these were some of the best sandwiches we have ever had. We definitely recommend Kahn's for lunch."

"Constructed around sandwiches, the simple menu features all the favorites a transplanted New Yorker could ask for.
Owner Mike Kahn boasts that his smoked salmon is Federal-Expressed from Norway and the meats are shipped straight from Chicago. Okay, we're impressed. "

"Best corned beef and pastrami in the state! one of those sandwiches, which could feed 4 people, and a Dr. Browns cream soda with a pickle and some potato salad can make anyone happy!"

"The all American is excellent with a hefty grilled knockwurst (all Beef hot dogs) nestled in a soft French roll that's been slathered with mustard and Russian dressing. Chopped tomatoes and purple onions crown this masterpiece."
