2025 Centurion Award winner

Attman's Delicatessen

Best Deli in Baltimore · Baltimore, MD

Restaurant · Baltimore, MD · Since 1915

The overview

The last king of Corned Beef Row

Attman's Delicatessen has been the last great survivor of Baltimore's Corned Beef Row since 1915, when the Attman family opened on East Lombard Street among the city's Jewish delis. Four generations later it still hand-cuts corned beef, pastrami, and tongue for towering sandwiches served with a half-sour and a side of attitude.

The cramped, cash-quick counter and its 'kibitz room' remain a Baltimore rite — a genuine turn-of-the-century Jewish deli that has outlasted the neighborhood that grew up around it.

A signal you can check.

This is a dated award record, published by The Centurion Awards after Attman's Delicatessen cleared the 2025 evaluation for its market and category. It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — the criteria are public, only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. For everything else — hours, bookings, live reviews — go straight to the business itself.
