  I live in So. Florida and have had access to at least 12 different local businesses that sell knishes. I have tried them all and have not found a single one that compares to Yonah Schimmel knishes. I happen to be a knish maven (expert) and eat knishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack time. Trust me when I tell you that there are none better. My order arrived in perfect condition and not a single knish was crushed. If I stilled lived in NYC, I'd be picking up a dozen every other week. This is a first rate business who truly are masters of their craft. I just recvd my order of 18 knishes today and I am in knish heaven. Keep up the great work Y.S. Truly the best knishes in the USA

  Finally got to try this place after months of passing by, and either missing opening times, or having an appetitie. Got to the shop at around 4 pm and the potato knish ran out.

We got Kasha (buckwheat), mushroom, red cabbage, and vegetable, all to-go. We got home to Heat it up first by microwave 1 minute, then toasted it for 5 minutes which worked out perfectly.

First bite was into Kasha...delicious! So much better than I expected and than it looks. As were the rest. Especially with the portable cups of mustard. The red cabbage and Kasha werethe stars. Next time would try the sweet potato one.
