“I know the owner here and she's actually selling her business this was a great business she used to work it with her husband but her husband passed away and it's become a little bit too much for her to deal with by herself so please try to support her before she leaves and go and have some food there it's excellent“
“My favorite to go place. I call in every morning and they have my order ready to go. Perfect place to get the best protein shakes, salads and regular food. Very clean environment and friendly staff.Dietary restrictions: They accommodate to everyone’s likings.Parking: Street and private parkingKid-friendliness: They have kid friendly foods.“
“Food was so good. We had 2 Tacos de Birrias, 2 Tacos Al Pastor, and 4 Tacos Jalapeños. I loved the Al Pastor and my husband loved the Jalapeños. It's a small place, but so clean. There were only two people behind the counter, but they were so courteous and you could tell take pride in the food they make. We also drank El jugo de tamarindo and it was perfect. Not too sweet, not too bitter. We went there strictly because of their high rating online, and they deserve every star they have.“
“I'm always on the lookout for a new lunch spot, saw this place had good reviews so we took a shot last week and were not disappointed! Our sandwiches were absolutely jammed with meat, so much so that I took my chips to go. Good food and friendly people, but not much to look at, and only a few tables inside. We definitely will be visiting again!“
“This hands down is the best deli in New Jersey, the staff is incredible and beyond friendly, now speaking of the sandwich are top notch! From the breads to the meats and condiments, I highly recommend coming here and getting yourself any sandwich. I can guarantee you it beats any sub shops around!“
“Heard NJ had some good Italian delis so was in the search for one nearby this weekend and it was a pretty good find. Very homey vibes as soon as you walk in. Staff was friendly. We were the only ones there upon arrival, less than an hour before closing on a Saturday afternoon but shortly after they had a mini rush and some locals picking up a catering order. We ordered a half and full but the half was a decent size so don't be fooled. Two sandwiches, a lasagna roll up and two bevs was about $31 total, I would say pretty affordable. I would return and maybe create my own. The Italian was delicious, def recommend. I got the Chicken Avocado BLT, tasty but not sure I like the fried avocado. Some fresh avocado, cheese and maybe a pesto would've knocked it out the park for me! They also have some frozen items you can take home. Good start to my search for an Italian deli.“
“Had the pleasure of stopping into Iorio Deli with friends Eric from Cultinary Road Trip and Tyler from Foodula. Had the chance to meet “The Boss” Gilda and her son Joe as well as the rest of the very friendly and helpful staff here. We tried a plethora of things so this may take a minute haha.Started off with two stuffed breads - A Reuben as well as a Pepperoni roll. The Reuben had a great flavor and the bread itself was tasty. It was slightly odd in my mind to eat a Reuben without grilled rye, but I enjoyed this. The pepperoni stuffed bread was also good and was even better with the addition of some sauce (they called it gravy and I thought I was in trouble haha).After that we were hit with some delicious Italian items including their house made meatballs, Italian sausage and peppers, and chicken Parmesan. The meatballs were just rated #1 in Central Jersey and #2 in the entire state of NJ at the Pizza Bowl a few months back. I could see why. Very tender, perfectly seasoned, and again that sauce/gravy was killer. To be honest though, I may have enjoyed the sausage even more! I mentioned how I didn’t get hit with that typical overwhelming pop from fennel seed and Joe said they make it with ground fennel so the flavor is still there but it’s not so in your face. I loved, and I mean loved, this sausage. The chicken parm was also very good but I had a small piece because I knew what was coming next!We finished off by trying two sandwiches that Iorio is well known for. The first was “The Jocelyn” which was a roast beef and Swiss melt on an onion roll, and the second was “The Sloppiest Joe” which was a North NJ staple “sloppy joe” but in epic proportions. The Jocelyn had good flavor and the onion roll was a nice touch and change of pace. The sloppiest Joe is sitting inside the top 3 I’ve had probably ever. The meats were freshly sliced and piled high, the rye was super fresh, and the Cole slaw had get flavor and added welcomed creaminess to the sandwich.As if there was any doubt at all - Iorio Deli in Roselle Park, NJ - Didn’t Suck!“
“What is not to like about this place?Warning: if you have a shopping list or have an idea of what you are planning to buy, try to stick with it. Otherwise, you will end up buying much more ?Their meatballs are so good that they don't last more than a day.Their sandwiches are great as well and with one you even have enough for 2 meals.The only item that is not my favorite is their mozzarella cheese, which I find too salty. But if you mix it with mushrooms you can make great quesadillas.“
“Lovely food and outstanding service. Everyone is so kind and sweet there. They have great vegetarian options too. I always order cali bagel which is my fav off the menu. I also recently tried their crispy potato sandwich, its sooooo good! I love this place! everyone should definitely check it out!“
“Had an awesome meal with my girlfriend at the deli last weekend. Cranford crack didn’t disappoint and I’m still thinking about the chicken cutlet! Dominic came to sit and chat with us and Joanie was the belle of the ball. Such a great experience. Can’t wait to bring my son and husband back.“
“Delicious sandwiches (my favorite: pastrami with everything!) and juices. Very friendly staff, clean atmosphere and very well priced! I only found out about this place back in December 2023, by a coworker and ever since then; call in my breakfast and by 6:15 a.m., when I stop in; my food's ready, fresh and hot! This place is AWESOME!!!“
“Great little deli. Best sloppy Joe's in Summit maybe the entire area. Great staff fast and kind. They can crank it out. You know it's good when you keep running into police officers. All old school recipes. You really have to try the brothers out“
“Mermaid?♀️ is amazing how this tiny place is able to pack in all its inventory and customers day in and day out. What’s even more amazing is how much competition they have within a 2 mile radius and it is thriving. The real testament on how well they do, the quality of their cooked foods and the selection it has to offer. It is a bustling hub of culinary delights within the Polish community. Renowned for their prepared lunch counter, the spotlight shines on this culinary delight where I have seen the queue 5-10 people deep. Do not forget the delectable dessert case- it’s a sweet haven. The perpetual buzz of activity extends beyond the store, spilling into the ever-busy parking lot. Dziękuję Syrena ?? “
“Now this is a place that needs to get a 5 Star Review. Been living in this town for about 8 years now and I believe this is the first time I can honestly say that this Deli knows how to make an amazing hero, and I've tried almost all of them. The people working there were nice and pleasant. They were warm and welcoming. The gentleman took pride in his work and crafted an amazing breakfast sandwich. Can't wait to come back and try one of their great lunch specials. They will see me often after today, thanks guys.“
“These are the BEST quesabirria tacos I have EVER had! They taste like home ?? tacos come with cheese and a very delicious consume. It was not too salty nor too watery, but a perfect consistency. The carne was seasoned to perfection, and it was a nice amount. They were not cheap with the portions! You get 3 nice big tacos.This is definitely a Hidden Gem in the East Coast ! Restaurant is extremely clean and staff is really friendly. You have to give them a try!“
“The place has such a vibe. The food is just delicious. I had a bacon egg and cheese and a chicken cutlet sandwich. We all have that sandwich spot. The one we like the bread at or the coffee or the way we get treated. This is my spot now. Customer service made you feel right at home. The vibe made you want to stay and relax for a little. Take some time and read this memo the owner has posted by the register. I should have taken a picture but the one line that stop out to me, If you need to vent do it because I will vent to you. I didn’t quote because I know is not just right but that just said so much to me about the place. I will be there again tomorrow. ??Ps. Got a pic of the memo also another chicken cutlet“
“Just "discovered" this little gem of the store. Small place but they have everything Polish a food connoisseur might want. Their pierogis were delicious and smoked kabanosy very devoured by the family as soon as they arrived home. Yummmy!“
“Very good but with one surprising disappointment. I got a Rueben sandwich and it had a nice amount of meat and all the normal toppings but instead of the sandwich being grilled it seemed like the bread was just lightly toasted and the cheese melted some but the bread ended up being soggy. Maybe this is just how they do a Rueben but I prefer when the bread is buttered and the sandwich grilled such that that bread gets brown and crispy. The place is clean and tidy and they have many deli options that are hard to find these days, but I just could not get over my non grilled sandwich.“
“Once in awhile you come across a business owner who takes enormous pride in their products, and makes them as though they are making it for their own family. I called Cioffi's and got Jerry the owner, who helped make my friend's birthday extra special by honoring my request for a heart-shaped pizza to be delivered to his house on his birthday. Jerry was in on it from the moment I explained what I wanted, as excited and joyful about the surprise as I hoped our friend would be! He was excited about our idea, excited for my friend, and excited to play his part in the whole thing. He even sent me texts as he was preparing it and just before he gave it to the delivery guy. I am so grateful for such a well executed (and delicious!!!!) surprise. Thank you, Jerry!!! Stay YOU!!“
“Great local deli and my go to lunch spot. Neris is super affordable and their quality and portions are amazing. Every sandwich and soup I’ve had is always great and never disappoints. The staff is always friendly as well. If you’re looking for a quick lunch with great service and prices this is your spot.“
“It's a lovely place excellent customer service. Service with a smile, very professional excellent mannerism, sandwich I love the most is the a t m with spinach, with no salt. Sooo good. I figure I try it once, second time maybe it will have a different taste, no fourth, fifth one just as good as the first.Vegetarian options: Sandwich I order, excellent ??“
“This is a great place, if you are looking for fresh produce at great prices. Their quality is great and have specials every week, which make your trip to Green Olive worth its time. The staff is also great, keeping up the price tags in place and fresh inventory on the shelves for customers to pick from. Love it ?“
“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Lucky 7 Deli in Union Beach, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! Not only is the food exceptional, but the owner is also a genuinely good person who exudes warmth and friendliness.Let's talk about the food – I ordered their pork roll, egg, and cheese sandwich with bacon, and it was hands down one of the best I've ever had. The flavors melded together perfectly, and each bite was a savory delight. The ingredients were fresh, the portion size was generous, and the sandwich was expertly prepared.But what truly sets Lucky 7 Deli apart is the wonderful atmosphere created by the owner. Their welcoming demeanor and genuine interest in their customers make you feel like part of the family from the moment you walk in. It's rare to find such authentic hospitality, and it makes the dining experience all the more memorable.In conclusion, if you're in Union Beach and craving a delicious meal served with a side of warmth and hospitality, look no further than Lucky 7 Deli. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!“
“Above everything, the service is wonderful. The staff is pleasant and patient with your questions (especially if you are unfamiliar with polish food or language). I do not hesitate to ask about the various sausages hanging over the counter or the assortment of dishes in the cooler. I have never had anything I didn't like here, though we love the pierogi's, especially the sauerkraut and mushroom, the kielbasa and kolbanosi, and the cabbage rolls (golumbki, halupki, Toltott Kaposzta etc..). We even recently bought sliced ham (like for sandwiches) and it was amazing, think sliced ham from your holiday ham, not the over processed stuff at the grocery store deli counter. Their sign doesn't lie, stop in, polish food is good!“
“Jimmy provided the food for our family and friends after my husband's funeral. Everything was excellent. He went out of his way to accomodate us and made sure everything was set up and ready for us when we arrived from the funeral. Wonderful people to work with and prices were reasonable.“
“Our favorite Italian Gourmet Delicatessen!!Wide variety of sandwiches, salads and hot entrees!The best Brooklyn bread!Enjoy getting cold cuts especially their imported Italian Prosciutto!We always get their fresh mozzarella balls, roasted red peppers and olive salad.We enjoy the feast at home!Highly recommend!“
“Great little place to grab take out from. The girls were nice. The bread was soft and fresh. I didn't order anything exciting so I can't say a lot but what I saw them making for other people looked great. I'm mostly posting this review to show the menu. Lol. Bon appetite!“
“This place is the best deli I have ever been to! The sandwich I ordered was delicious and sooo fresh, definitely recommend coming here if you want an authentic deli sandwich. Also the owner was so nice and welcoming I will definitely be a repeat customer whenever I get the chance to be back in the New Jersey area!“
“Classic "hole-in-the-wall" homestyle deli with amazing food: you can tell that LOVE is the main ingredient in everything they make. Best Steak, Egg, and Cheese sandwich I've EVER had in 50+ years. 10/10 if you're looking for friendly service and a reasonably priced meal. And they just got a new AC unit!“
“Great polish food. I live 45min away and stop here for pierogis whenever in the area. From potato and cheese, to mushroom and even blueberry these are all best around. Also tried bean stew which is amazing. Bigos or hunter stew I guess is great ! Traditional dishes are also phenomenal around holidays. The bread is always fresh and probably best in the whole region. This is the place to shop if you're into this type of food.“
“We did our Holiday Luncheon today and catered from Bruzzse’s. It was a work luncheon for Nissan City of Red Bank and I must tell you the food was absolutely terrific. They delivered on time, set up everything perfectly, got all the sternos lit. The service was top notch. And again the food was delicious. Eggplant, beef Teriyaki, were incredible. Highly recommend this place to everyone. 5stars.“
“The corned beef and pastrami are excellent no complaints on the other hand. I took home a piece of carrot cake that cost almost $31. It was absolutely terrible. The cake tasted stale, and the frosting tasted bitter. It went right in the garbage.“
“Small local restaurant, Just started working in the area recently so I decided to stop in for breakfast this morning. Ended up getting the cheese steak it was absolutely delicious and had an excellent price. I will be returning to try other things on the menu.“
“in november i was taking a walk and suddenly i felt very disoriented and light headed and my heart was pounding. i came here and ordered an egg cheese ham bagel and got an arizona iced tea thinking maybe i was hungry or my blood sugar was low. but i still felt this way for an hour or 2 and i was seeing stars. they told me the store was closing and they were cleaning up and i told them what was happening and the owner asked if i needed an ambulance and i said i couldnt make the walk back home as it was super dark and it was already hard to see because of my vision being dim and i didnt know if i would pass out, and i told him i didnt have a ride home and he said his wife would be leaving work soon and she could drop me off, but i didnt want to trouble him so i said it was okay and i managed to get my dad to drop me off at my house. very sweet people, i am glad they showed care.“
“Fantastic breakfast and lunch offerings. The deli meats are always fresh and they make really delicious empanadas that are made daily. They also make homemade soup every day. The cuban sandwich special on Wednesdays is my favorite thing and i would highly recommend it.“
“Stopped by to pick up pierogies i ordered the day before. Ended up buying some noodles and cabbage and chicken prapriska (spelling?) pre-made in the back fridge and some kielbasa. So far ate the chicken prapriska and noodles and cabbage and will definitely be going back for more! Man, how i miss those!“
“I got the gravy master and it always hits the spot. The garlic toasted sub has those nice charred bits. I do not like too much cheese so they strike a good balance for me on the mozzarella. Leaving the best part for last -- the roast beef is fresh and the gravy lets it all melt in your mouth. Yum!Parking: Easy to find a spot to park in the mall.“
“Lovely family run Deli with a commitment to high quality food the liver pate aka salad is to die for. The sandwiches are lean cut delicious, they have make your own salad and the portions are large. There are a thousand things I want to try on their menu will be a regular customer for sure. I had the white Russian with the 3 salads yesterday and the wrecker a few weeks ago. Their food is super good take a trip to see them today!Vegetarian options: They have a lot of vegetables, roasted vegetables they have lots of different salad options they have salads they have bagels have smoked fish For people who eat fish and their vegetarian diet, they have egg salad for people who continue to eat eggs, but they do have vegan options also and pickled salads are good.Dietary restrictions: Their menu is huge. I’m sure you can find something if you’re on a diet they even have roasted cauliflower lots of pickles. And everything‘s custom-made so you can ask in advance, and they’ll be happy to obligeKid-friendliness: They have a video game there to play and tv“
“The two gentlemen behind the counter were very pleasant. They have a decent menu selection. For the most part, it does not matter if you get a half or a whole sub because you’re not getting a deal by getting the whole sub. Example: most half subs are $7.99 whereas the whole sub is $15.99. There are a few where the whole sub gives you a $.50 savings. Today I did get a cheesesteak with extra provolone cheese, onions, hot peppers and a special hot sauce that they make. I’m glad I got the extra cheese because it definitely needed that and the condiments that were on there were very good. The meat itself didn’t taste like anything special but it wasn’t bad. It seems all of their cold cuts are Thummann’s which is high-quality. I do believe that the cheesesteak sub needed more meat. The meat itself did not even cover the bread end to end. One one end of the sub there was nothing but the bread by about 1.5” and 2” of nothing at the other end. So about 3.5 inches of the 16 inch sub was just bread. In all reality, I believe you are better off going with a half cheesesteak and double everything so you get a full sandwich with half of the bread. I cannot speak for any other sandwich as this is the first time I was there and the only item that I did purchase, as far as the entrée goes. I did get a small thing of potato salad, which was some store-bought stuff just scooped into little containers that was just meh. My meal of a cheesesteak, small potato salad and a Diet Coke can came to just over $20.“
“First time visiting, I ordered the pastrami on rye sandwich and it was very delicious. The pastrami melted in my mouth.. When I walked in the ladies behind the counter were very friendly and accommodating.. The service was good. I definitely will be back and recommend this place!!!“
“Excellent restaurant, they serve delicious breakfasts from the healthiest to those garnachitas for breakfast that we love so much.Their food is exquisite and super homemade, their oil with which they cook is fresh and you can see that it is super fresh and not at all overheated because the food has a very rich and fresh flavor.Their nopales salad is delicious, their empanadas and their freshly squeezed juices, well what can I say, everything is a delight, and their prices are very reasonable, the service is on another level, Maria is a loving person and always serves you with a Smile, the man who attends in the morning is also very friendly and helpful.Many other places should learn from this little place and it is a restaurant that undoubtedly earns each of its 5 stars ?? ??!!“
“All star deli! Great sandwich spot whether you want a hand crafted turkey and cheese or a fresh bacon egg and cheese right off the grill. Their donuts and bakery selection is fresh and had that authentic old school bakery vibe. Excellent customer service and always clean inside and out. Great addition to the neighborhood! Definitely a spot worth checking out.“
“I finally tried their bfast (I usually order lunch). oh my gosh the omelet was so good. and the potatoes weren't bland. nice flavor! i ordered 2 hash browns and they actually wrapped them separately so they wouldn't stick together. go to Michigan Deli!!“
“There is a reason that Dara's has a reputation that is legendary. This place has a character like no other. It hasn't changed since forever and you can't help but love the chaotic interplay between the staff. As for the food you absolutely can't go wrong. The subs are always fresh and top notch. The muffaletta might be the best sub in union county!“
“place was closed but the manager personally let my friend and i into the store and made us sandwiches. arguably the best deli sandwich i’ve ever had too. even let me use the employee restroom. great price for everything, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for lunch“
“Today I ordered tuna hero it id delicious and plentiful also ordered homemade potato & macaroni salad. Last time it was Roast beef I can’t recall the time before but everything has been delicious. I’d like to try some hot meals & also their meat looks great, I have to inquire about delivery. Part of my childhood memories were riding to Rocco’s Deli on my bicycle as well.“
“Honestly it’s hard to find a clean store that is so convenient in this neighborhood. I moved here a year ago and this has to be the best that has come to the neighborhood. The food is clean the workers are very friendly and respectful. You want a deli man with clean hands and gloves who will focus only on your food then this is the place. Oh yeah the coffee is awesome. Keep it up please.“
“5 Stars for Five Star Catering! Thank you Tom for the wonderful food you prepared for my little dinner last night. The love you put into everything from planning, preparing and packaging the catering orders is so evident. Everything was delicious!“
“My favorite breakfast and lunch place in the area! The absolute best egg and cheese pork roll!! It’s so good that I constantly crave it and even better, the prices are extremely reasonable. The cold cuts are also really, really good. $2 large coffee is also amazing! The best part is that this place is family run and Mr and Mrs. Lee are the sweetest people who always brighten my day“
“My second experience was even better than the first ? I was actually looking for a different eatery with similar names. I ended up @ Touch of Italy ??,. And it was the right choice. I ordered the Apple ? salad, which was excellent. Thanks again for the great food and the great conversation ?“
