Surprised to see some negative reviews. We've never had a bad experience at Canter's. And we've been going there for 10 years now and continue to do so every time we're in L.A. Staff has ALWAYS been friendly, service is prompt, prices are comparable to other delis. The bakery is to die for. And P. S. - They thank you on your way out. Pros: Traditional Jewish Deli Food & Atmosphere Cons: They don't have a branch in Palm Springs

If anyone thinks that Canter's is a good deli, go back to the McDonalds that you came from. I've been going to Canter's on & off for over 50 years. What was once a pretty decent deli has evolved into an overpriced, deteriorating quality wannabe. The food is not good. There's no other way to put it. And it's too bad. If you want to complain, they'll laugh at you. The manager's act like they're doing you a favor by just seating you. A once good spot is now a "Beware" place. Pros: None Cons: Food, Attitude

The food is unbelieveably bland, the atmosphere is great if you're looking for smarmy.

WELL FOR SUCH A FAMOUS PLACE, THEY DONT SEEM TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT MAINTAINING THIER FAME. NICE OLD SCHOOL RESTAURANT LAYOUT, FOOD QUALITY FOR THE PRICE? GO TO NORMS. MY FRIEND HAD A HAM SANDWICH THAT LOOKED LIKE IT CAME OUT OF THE PLASTIC PACKAGE AT 711, AND I HAD A $12.00 CHEFS SALAD, THAT WAS NOTHING LESS THAN PATHETIC, IVE HAD BETTER SALADS AT MCDONALDS(NO JOKE). LOTS OF EMPLOYEES, NONE SEEMED TOO CONCERNED ABOUT ANYTHING BUT THIER TIPS. TOO BAD THAT SUCH A FAMOUS PLACE CANT LIVE UP TO ITS FAME. COULD BE GOOD IF ANYBODY GAVE A DAM, BUT IT WAS APPARENT THAT NOBODY DOES. JUST MILKING THE FAME FOR ALL ITS WORTH, Pros: NICE CIEIING ART Cons: EVERYTHING ELSE

I was just here again recently with me buds I haven't seen in a long while. For a late night spot, it's a good pick. Sure, the food isn't all that great. But, I always have had good service here and stepping into the place is like stepping into a time machine. Sometimes, I'll come here just to sit and have coffee myself. They never try to rush me out which is good! Pros: 24 hours. Classic. Cons: none really

Classic place to eat in LA! They have the best Deli sandwiches and they are open 24hours! Great place to go when you're craving a bomb deli sandwich!!!

Canter's sandwiches cannot be beaten. Period. And the pickles, which are brought out to you on a huge plate at the start of your meal, are to die for. I recommend buying a jar to take out with you. Don't forget the black and white cookie, either. Pros: Corned beef, salami, pickles. Cons: N/A

I wish there was a minus star option for rating. I took my colleagues there while remembering warm Mazza bowl soup, which my friend's mom used make for us. Well, my good memories were shattered when I was yelled at by a rude woman in cashier for not calculating my portion of the bill excluding tip before hand. The server did not ask us if we wanted separate checks, which we needed it in order to pay mixed cash and/or credit cards for out party. She threw parking stamp over the counter and gave all kinds of attitude. The food was over priced for the portion and taste. Evidentially, the extra money the food cost us bought us extra attitude!!! Please go there if you want to waste your hard earned money in most disrespectable way. Cons: Both Thumbs down
