Review content:
OK, I grew up in the Bronx and ate Jewish deli pretty much all the time every week from the time I was a small child. I am now 50 years old and living in Connecticut. That said, I am a ""tough room"" when it comes to such deli. In spite of that, Rein's has my heart for satisfying the memory of my youth. Dining here is like stepping into a time machine - Like going back to a deli in the Bronx circa 1972! OK, it's not Katz's or Carnegie when it comes to the pastrami and rye, but what on earth is even close to that? I don't expect a place like Rein's, with it's apple-cheeked, blonde, blue eyed staff to live up to that (I still laugh at that given that I'm used to a 60-something balding, paunchy Jewish man wearing a gray jacket). Especially not in Vernon of all places! But on the other hand, considering where it is and who is preparing the food, this is pretty good stuff, and pretty authentic. I appreciate the entrees that take me back to my youth. Where else can you get kasha varnishkes anywhere in this area? Or sour pickles that are EXACTLY like I remember? Or salad platters like ""back in the day"" with a scoop of tuna salad, potato salad and cole slaw (which are all very good, BTW). Or S&S cheesecake (which is made in the Bronx)? Or borscht with sour cream? Most people around here don't even know what that stuff is. So I have to appreciate Rein's as the labor of love that it is, and a ""facsimile"" of my youth. The food is just on that side of authentic to blend into my memories of what the real thing tastes like like an impressionist painting. My Dad still lives in NY and although he goes to Kosher delis in his neighborhood, he still prefers Rein's. You can't beat the prices compared to NY delis. You can live with some of the meat not being quite as fabulous as a result. It is still good. There is plenty more on the menu that is just as good as NY deli and prepared exactly as it should be. I can't believe how hard some people are to please!
Pros: A step back in time, Food great, just like the old days
Cons: none!
