Best Deli in Baltimore · Baltimore, MD
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.

Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. Selection is by published criteria, never for sale.
