Nate 'n Al Delicatessen is a Jewish deli[1] located in Beverly Hills, California. The restaurant opened in 1945, occasionally serving as an informal meeting place for show business personalities.

History

[edit]

Nate 'n Al was started in 1945 by friends Al Mendelson and Nate Rimer. The two met in a Detroit deli twenty years before, and came up with the idea of opening their own deli. They moved to California and opened their deli calling it Nate ‘n Al, in Beverly Hills. It had an initial capacity of thirty persons.[2]

In 2018, the restaurant was put up for sale by the grand children of original owners, then it was bought by Shelli and Irving Azoff the following year.[3] In 2022, the Azoffs formed a partnership with H.Wood Group who will assume daily management of the restaurant while the Azoffs assumed advisory and financial role.[1]

Ratings

[edit]

LA Weekly ranked the deli's matzo ball soup #1 in the magazine's "Top 5 Matzo Ball Soups in Los Angeles".[4]  CBS/Los Angeles ranked the deli's Corned Beef Reuben Sandwich on its list of the "Best Reubens in Los Angeles".[5] 

Ownership

[edit]

After remaining a family restaurant for three generations, in February 2018, it was rumored that the original owners planned to sell the restaurant, possibly leading to its closure.[6] In January 2019, it was announced that a group of investors including Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford, Michael Meldman, Jeff Shell, and Jay Sures would purchase the deli and keep it open.[2][7][8]
