This is a New York landmark. Having grown up in New York I have fond memories of this place and it really hasn't changed much over the years.
The knishes are delicious and they have more variety than the kasha and potato knishes of my youth,
Delicious borscht .
If you are in NYC treat yourself to a fun experience.
This place is not fancy, it's a small space but really authentic food.

If you have never had knishes delivered by dumbwaiter, with mustard as garnish and tea as hydration... and you know from Houston... get to Yona Schimmel's already

Recently stopped in on. Sunday morning while visiting New York. Got a chocolate cheese knish, blueberry knish, potato and kasha. All are delicious. The sweet knishes are cheesy, creamy and rich, and enough chocolate and blueberry to add to the flavor. The potato and kasha knishes are yummy too and froze well, didn't last long though as my family wanted to eat them! Unfortunately we went on a Sunday at 11 am when they opened so they did not have a good selection, of the sweet or savory varieties. I'm hoping next time they will as I do plan a return on my next trip!
