Miracle Mile Deli • 1949

The Grodzinsky and Garcia families have been piling pastrami high on rye since 1949, when founder Jack arrived in Phoenix from Brooklyn and brought New York deli traditions to the desert. Three generations later, the hot pastrami and corned beef still draw lines, along with The Straw — a signature sandwich that's helped feed over 150,000 customers a year. Come hungry for towering sandwiches that taste like they were flown in from the Lower East Side.
