Well if Canter's gets a mention, then certainly you should add Brent's Deli in Northridge to the list.  Far and away the best deli in SoCal...just check their Zagat rating!  Everything kicks butt except for the potato skins...

I want a Black Pastrami Reuben, but it is almost 800 miles away.

 If you like the Pantry, you'll more than likely like Antigue Row
 Cafe in San Diego's Normal Heights area. Long lines on the
 weekends. Breakfast and lunch only.
