If you are looking for a pretty good deli in Central Orange County, Benjies New York Deli in Santa Ana might just hit the spot. The Mrs. and I went there a couple of weeks back and each enjoyed some deliciously piled high corned beef sandwiches.
If I remember the Benjie Special was actually there special for the week and was $7.99 which you really can’t beat for the price. All sandwiches are served on bread or a roll, and are your choice of coleslaw, macaroni salad, potato salad, fruit, or french fries.

Dan, that sandwich made my mouth water, but…how is their pastrami?
I can’t remember if I’ve had the pastrami there before, but typically West Coast pastrami is different than East Coast. Ours tends to be more salty (or maybe it’s less salty), I would figure that Benjies is more like the East Coast version.
…and I’ve heard the karaoke is out of control!

pickles are great, I like the hot roast beef, and patty melt too.

Yes the pickles, I forgot about those. I have a couple slices before my meal.
