50 Best Delis near East Rutherford

“the amount of meat and the price is just right“

“great prices, workers nice to kids.“

“The best sandwiches in the area“

“Mutz is a soft, mild cheese. You'd be forgiven for thinking that it would struggle to stand up to roast beef, roast turkey, hot peppers, sweet peppers, and the soft loaf encasing them all in a piled-high deli sandwich.

This mutz shines through. The stories about this place? The Biancamano lore? All true. This old-school deli shows why they're an institution.“

“Another visit to Faicco's on another trip to NYC was just as good as always. We loved the Rice, Prosciutto, and Potato Balls. The only gripe was the Fried Ravioli. It was not good with hard ravioli and hard cheese even after heating up. We only ate half of the dozen we ordered and that was too many. Can't beat the prices though! Great service otherwise!“

“The waiters in white coats are busy behind the counter, the menu has not changed for decades, and even the lighting seems to have remained in the last century - this is the old New York I want.“

“Excellent food, everything very tasty and fresh food of the day. Lots of salad and excellent quality. Super clean and fragrant environment. Very cordial service. One of the best places in NY for breakfast.

Vegetarian options: Lots of salad and vegetable options.“

“This one the BEST rice ball I have ever had!!“

“have been going for 40 years always a pleasure wonderful staff consistent quality Deli“

“One of the best, hands down.“

“I love this place for so many reasons. They deliver. They assist and carry you purchase to your car. The food is verr good ! Get the White pizza with Broccoli and Meat Lasagna with Eggplant Parm.“

“This place is clean and well organized. I went for a quick lunch break and staffs were well respectful and made amazing sandwich. I highly recommend this place if you are in area. I am definitely going back for endless selections of food.“

“The taste profile is spot on. One of the better Italian Deli in the vicinity. High food quality. The place is clean and the staff and owner are very down to earth and humble.“

“A truly hidden gem in the city! Happened to learn about this place from a friend who frequents the shop for their rice noodles, which they cooked for us so we knew the quality was good. We have since been back numerous times for noodles, frozen goods, fresh soy milk, and pastries! Everything is fresh and well-flavored. We got the wintermelon pastries yesterday and were worried about it being too sweet, but it was just right! Prices are also very reasonable (we purchased the wintermelon pastries, which come with 3 small pastries, a pack of rice noodles, and a soy milk all for $8). They also take credit card, which is a plus as well!“

“I just so happen to eat here all the time & I think it's the best!“

“The sandwich’s are priceless. The wait is worth it sometimes lol.“

“The sandwiches here are amazing and super creative. I’m obsessed with the Pho 19, with tuna, bulgogi, kimchi, spinach, and chesse; so good! The sandwiches are huge too, and they have a large variety (there are some Italian heros/wraps among other variations).“

“Just had their cheese ravioli and manicotti. Wow! The manicotti was so delicious and creamy. Absolute heaven! And the ravioli were the best I’ve ever tasted. Deluxe! I’ll definitely be traveling the 1 hour+ up to Nutley to pick up more.“

“Nice local deli in HK neighborhood with food, sandwiches and Carrie’s beer, juices, some packages grocery and few daily use items. Prices are really solid compared to multiples places around.

Had a everything bagel w/ cream cheese for 2.99 and everything bagel with peanut butter for 3.10. Ofcourse the quantity of cream cheese or PB was noticeably less but if you can live with that all is fine. Coffee is okay.

Verdict - Overall good neighborhood place and will return.“

“I really like this place but the deli counter is disorganized and lends itself to incivility. Cangiano’s needs a ticketing system so that that everyone, especially their servers, do not have to rely on the honor system. I had an incident this past weekend which could have been avoided by this tried and true method.“

“This fine Italian deli has been around since 1996. I used to work up the block and came here regularly for lunch sandwiches or a homemade chicken parmesan or eggplant parmesan. I moved out of the area after retiring, and I was back visiting in Hackensack. We went here for lunch hero sandwiches. We all opted for a number 10, turkey with fresh mozzarella, roasted peppers, and balsamic vinegar. Ooooh, so good! Just like what I remember from 25 years ago. Cosmo looks the same..... just a little older! We washed the sandwiches down with Dr Brown' cream sodas. They also carry Stewart's sodas. Wow! You don't find that delicious soda in a deli often. Cosmo carries the best products! BTW: the sandwiches are loaded up with the ingredients; there's no skimping here. I totally forgot sandwich photos before I ate half, as we all dove in to eat after getting home. Parking is just behind the deli. If you're traveling down Rt 4, get off at either Main St (eastbound) or Kinderkamack Rd (westbound). I highly recommend this excellent Italian deli. It's the real deal!“

“Excellent Food and service. Top Notch!!!!!“

“Friendly atmosphere. Great menu, delicious food.! I would come back anytime. Highly recommend stopping by, making friends with the owner and feeling at home while there. Great place to visit while in between work meetings, a lunch break or just need food and place that will hug your spirit: :)“

“Amazing food, very clean environment. Great staff. Beyond reasonable prices!!!! Strongly recommend.“

“Absolutely the best bagel there is. Each one no matter the flavor is a delight. And their food that they put on the bagel is delicious. Get there before 3;30 PM if you want sliced cheese because they close the slicer at 3;30. I know if I get there at 3;32 PM the slicer is off. So I get tuna fish instead and it’s about as good as it gets. The staff is friendly and do a good job. What a place!“

“everything is excellent, best bread“

“Great owner, friendly staff, and an awesome deli counter. Fresh Mozzarella is store made and is some of the best I’ve ever had. The owner has special ordered coffee upon request for me. Ridgefield Park Liquor & Deli is a great community store!“

“This first time I had a sandwich that taste good in a long time.
I had a philly cheese steak the bread was fresh and soft the atmosphere was quite and peaceful and the service was awesome. If I'm ever in the area I will definitely come back“

“This place is amazing! I have celiac disease and have a hard time finding safe places to eat. I had the gluten free chicken tender platter and chocolate chip cookies, which were both unbelievable. The wait staff was incredibly kind and attentive and explained that everything was prepared separately using a dedicated fryer. My gluten consuming family also loved their food. My husband said it was the best pastrami he’s ever had and my son had an “extra cheesy” grilled cheese. The owner visited our table and introduced himself. Cannot recommend this place enough!“

“Uber driver mistakenly gave me someone else’s breakfast order 😡 Called Poppies and they explained and couldn’t do much because it was the driver’s fault. The ladies who answered were still kind and apologetic about it. Ended up eating the other person’s sandwich anyway lol It was good even though not what I’d ever eat. 🤎“

“good food and lot's of variety to choose from“

“Amazing place. Our favorite in NYC. Great food. Wonderful people.“

“This deli is a great addition to the landscape of our small town! It's cozy, clean, and inviting, and of course has great food made to order. Short story... one evening I was running late to work on second shift. Michelle had already closed, but was still inside cleaning. She let me in, and made me the two sandwiches I requested without hesitation. I will never forget that. Thanks Michelle! Keep up the great work!“

“This cafe was across from my hotel room. Happy I came here their coffee was the best I’ve had in New York and loved that it kept on getting topped up like in the movies (from Sydney). I had breakfast which was delicious but they also hace a wide variety, excellent customer service.“

“I was there few minutes ago. And I see this guy I heard his name is Omar the way he takes care of customers at this time is incredible its not easy talking care of customers at this time he looked soo happy doing his job I will definitely come back to this place“

“The best catering around! Whether it be breakfast, lunch, dinner, Thanksgiving, it's all amazing!“

“Highly recommend. Tried them today for the first time, my sandwich was amazing. Great food at a fair price. Very friendly and kind staff as well. I’m looking forward to another visit“

“visited for breakfast our first day in Newyork, recommended by a local. food was some of the best I've had, scrambled egg with cheese and bacon was amazing“

“So, no shade to anyone but….there’s Subway, and then there’s Vito’s. I had to stop eating at Subway sometime ago. The quality drastically reduced and it just didn’t hit the same for me. Last summer, a friend and I came across Vito’s. We were craving a good hero/cold cut and checked out some of the reviews and saw that they were good, so went inside. We ordered turkey heroes and they were EXCEPTIONAL. Now I know some may think that it isn’t hard to make or find a good turkey cold cut, but trust me, it IS, and I’ve had many bad turkey cold cuts. It’s quite disappointing. What really makes a bad turkey cold cut bad, is, well, the turkey lol. You can taste when it isn’t quality turkey, when it’s processed, etc. It just doesn’t taste the same. When tasting these turkey cold cuts from Vito’s, the bread was amazing, the turkey was amazing, it was fresh and filling! It was also good service. The staff took our sandwich orders and nailed them! I went back last week for another turkey cold cut and it was also more than exceptional. So simple, yet exceptional. Thank you for quality heroes, Vito’s. I need to go back to try some of their pastas and sauces because everything is simply made and authentic. I will absolutely be back. Also, they have a happy hour, everyone! I forget the pricing and details but it’s great! Go check’em out!“

“Best ever, handsome manager, good soup, even better service. 🙂 Get a Pastrami and ask for the Anna Banana smoothie.“

“I was renovating my house over the summer and my kitchen was out of commission for four months. We ate lunch here practically the entire time. I NEVER had a bad dish! The staff is friendly, the place is clean and the food is AMAZING! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is the best deli in Manhattan! Been coming here for all 4 years of dental school and this family owned deli makes you feel like family. Best food, best vibes, and the absolute best service there is! I cannot recommend this place enough, you have to try it, once you do, you won't want another deli!“

“Food and service were amazing!“

“Ruth helped me with creating a charcuterie selection for my Aunt's funeral this past weekend. I placed the order with her Thursday and she had everything done for me on Friday. The arrangement of food was wonderful and her kindness does not go unnoticed. Thank you Ruth and I highly recommend using them for your antipasto and other food arrangements.“

“Best meatball parm in NYC“

“Really good pastrami and friendly service.“

“I dropped by Clinton Fruit Market late one night and was pleasantly surprised: this place is a serious lifesaver if you’re craving something fresh, sour, or health-conscious after hours.

What works really well
• The staff are superb. The guy at the counter went above and beyond to make the exact juice I was craving. Big thanks - customer service like that matters.
• They have a great selection of fresh items: cold-pressed juices, fruits, etc. It’s clear they care about freshness.
• Open at late hours - getting a fresh, cold-pressed juice at 10 PM was a relief. Not many places do that.
• The overall vibe is positive. Clean, well stocked, feels like somewhere you can go for healthy fare without sacrificing quality.“

“Thanks for the excellent and professional service the food was amazing a new stop in jersey city whenever I go try it if you haven’t won’t be disappointed again thanks“

“I have tried many different Polish places around Jersey. Piast has my favorite Gołąbki by far! I moved about 30 minutes away and I still make the drive to get their food.“

“My husband and I both got the Italian sub before heading to Penn Station. The young guy that took our order was very nice and polite. Our deli meat and cheese were freshly sliced and our sandwiches were DELICIOUS!!!! We will be repeat customers for sure!“
