This place is at the corner of Franklin and Tamarind Ave, and has a liquor store that makes great (if expensive) sandwiches, and is also a restaurant next door with again delicious sandwiches, though the prices are way too high. You have to experience the food though, it is pretty damn good, and the sandwiches are huge (though they should be from $10 to $15).
I started going to this place many years ago as a PA, when my boss would let me get dinner and a bottle of wine at the Deli. I would always get a turkey sandwich with lettuce, avocado and Italian dressing and a Deli pickle. The sandwiches are huge with so much turkey it is hard to wrap your lips around it. And damn are they tasty.
What I had today was a Victor's Reuben with Corned Beef, on rie with Russian dressing, sauerkraut and swiss cheese, and is fantastic. Sure it is messy, but damn is it tasty. In fact some of the best Corned Beef I have had in Los Angeles. The Sandwich is huge and delicious, and you will need extra napkins, because it is a mess, and will be allover yoru fingers and all over your plate (and your shirt if you are not careful.
For sides the sandwich only comes with Cole Slaw, but for an extra dollar you can get some decent big fat french fries, that go well with the sandwich, but just add the the cholestoral busting nature of the whole thing. Unless you regulary get your arteries cleaned, I suggest not having this too often.
This place is great and tasty, with huge portions, though is way too expensive. Still I do eat here quite a bit, and have always enjoyed it.
The liquor store and deli are also quite good. They have a good collection of wines, and are always very knowledgeable about the wines and what you should eat them with, so just ask then if you have any questions. The prices are a bit high, but not that bad.
