Canter’s hot corned beef and pastrami sandwiches are piled high on rye with crisp kosher dills. A favorite is the National kosher hot dog, grilled open faced and served with spicy, brown mustard on a large bun. Canter’s famous barley bean soup is on the menu, as well as chicken noodle and matzo ball. The potato knish is a treat and the coleslaw crisp and potato salad creamy. Featured breakfast items include bagels, salami and eggs, cheese blintzes, and eggs and lox.

’wichcraft
Tom Colicchio, the award-winning chef who established himself in New York with Gramercy Tavern and Craft before being invited to open Craftsteak at the MGM Grand in 2002, refers to ’wichcraft as a “sophisticated sandwich shop that elevates the art of the sandwich.” His method of using exceptional food and preparing it simply is the crux of his dining philosophy: clean flavors from unique combinations of seasonal ingredients.

The clean flavors of ’wichcraft are translated into the clean lines of the restaurant, designed by Bentel & Bentel. The relaxing restaurant sits near the entrance to the hotel pool at the end of Studio Walk. Diners can enjoy the hustle of the area by grabbing one of five “bistro-like” tables that hug the restaurant’s entrance or order a sandwich at the front counter, grab a bar stool and enjoy.

Delis are all about sandwiches and even though ’wichcraft doesn’t consider itself a deli, ’wichcraft is all about sandwiches…as visualized by Tom Colicchio. They range from homemade, chunky peanut butter and pineapple jelly on Pullman white bread to Sicilian tuna with fennel, black olives, and fresh lemon on a crusty baguette.

As Colicchio said, these are not ordinary sandwiches. The chicken salad on multigrain bread is made with roasted tomatoes, red onions, and walnuts. Even the horseradish mayo stands out on the roast beef sandwich. Breakfast sandwiches are available throughout the day and include fried egg, bacon, and blue cheese on a roll. If you like the sweet stuff for breakfast, Craftsteak’s pastry chef, Melinda Eusantos, sends over pastries, sticky buns, muffins, scones, and a variety of cream’wich cookies.
