50 Best Delis near East Rutherford

“Stopped before Jets game for sub…. Great people! Super friendly and the subs were awesome! So much MEAT!!!“

“The best sandwiches in the area“

“great prices, workers nice to kids.“

“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.“

“Been going to Faiccos for over 45 years now and nothing has changed thank goodness. The absolute best Italian cold cuts sandwiches,cheese and other specialities served by clean professional knowledgeable staff. The wrapping of the meats is a work of art in it self. Quality is amazing fresh and you can taste each item if you desire. The employees ability to cut tge meats so thin you can read the paper thru them still amazes me. Store is always very clean and workers are clean and well groomed important when they are touching your food. In 45 years never a problem never an issue
Always perfect just perfect.
Try tge home made sopresota or Italian from Italy mortadell or 8 different salami or a sandwich. Tge house made mottsorella is also amazing. Well worth the wait“

“Great place Wonderful food Good service“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“An ethical, industrious family has made it their business to operate a lone deli down on Avenue B and Sixth, and they do it well.. All you might need from a bodega is well-stocked. A nod of the hat for maintaining excellent hot coffee thru the long hours of operation. Soups are solid.. goto is the ol Chicken Noodle. Extra star for Managing customers.. some of whom might be drunk and disagreeable at night. Well, you've heard of the sandwiches. They really knock it out of the park in that department. Personal challenge: come to know each of these sandwiches. Cultivate a relationship with these 'characters'.. the Biden et al.. Cash tips are welcome and deserved. Take notes.. and when ordering, use a telephone and call their maintained-for-3 decades 212 phone number. They don't give those out to any yo-yo..

Pro tip: don't eat at Tompkins--there's a tranquil garden just south across the street. And at night, walk it over to ol' Josies..“

“The best part of my morning is stopping in and always being greeted with kindness and hospitality. The menu is clear and simple, but it won’t stop them from suggesting something they think you’d enjoy.

It’s hard finding a place so quaint and personable in the city. For me it’s the fact that the owner will remember you and immediately welcome you as a friend.

I’m happy to have found this place and become a patron.

P.S. thank you for putting me onto the beef bacon“

“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.“

“After reading the reviews, I ordered the chopped cheese sandwich & it was delicious!! Would definitely recommend, very fresh & tasty and the guys serving were very polite & friendly. Also very reasonably priced considering the freshness & portions. Will definitely be back again.“

“One of the best, hands down.“

“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 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 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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I'm grateful Yelp pointed me toward this hidden gem. The kitchen skill and staff professionalism were notable. The workers excel; greeting customers cheerfully and accommodating requests with smiles. The menu costs more than most places. I'm sincerely confident that you'll appreciate this spot like I do.“

“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.“

“Best deli and market in Murray Hill/Kips Bay! They opened this past year and they were exactly what the neighborhood needed. I not only come here for their delicious sandwiches but also random groceries when I need something and don’t want to go all the way to the grocery store! Highly recommend!!“

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

“Very fast and convenient restaurant! Delicious sandwiches and runs about $30 for 2 sandwiches.
Will definitely be coming again and reminds me of an old school type of deli feel. Make sure you try the Vito sandwich it’s my favorite!“

“This place is the real deal—authentic, welcoming, and packed with flavor. The staff was warm, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. Whenever in the area this is a must. They're many locations in the area and i have been to them all but this one is the only one i will be visiting. The quality, cleanliness, and pricing is a no brainer. Thank you Parisi's Deli for making my decision so easy when wanting quality food and service.“

“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“

“everything is excellent, best bread“

“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.“

“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!“

“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 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!“

“The #1 and the Chicken, Eggplant, or Meatball Parmigiana Sandwiches are literally perfect on every level. Expertly sliced, sized and also very fairly priced. The Daily Homemade soups are great as are the Daily Specials. If I lived closer I'd eat lunch here daily. Cash $$ only.“

“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. 🤎“

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

“This place is an absolute hidden gem. Walked to it while taking my mom to an appointment. The breakfast sandwich was tasty and well cooked, the drink selection was huge for the space. Everything from Ito En teas, to Chi Sparkling water and Clearly Canadian.

The absolute star of the show was a super sweet lady that cook e the absolute best Japchae with shrimp I've had and I've been to quite a few places. Nothing like a home cooked meal at a restaurant. This was made fresh, not microwaved and made with love.

If you're in the Midtown Tunnel area by 39th and 2nd, even if you aren't close, you have to try this place. It is well worth the trip!“

“Sandwiches are good, but I’m not sure what’s wrong with people taking the orders at the sandwich counter.

Probably a dozen or times I’ve asked them to add certain ingredients… it’s probably there maybe 3/5 times. They’re good at making their own menu items but lo and behold you spice things up with a little remix and you may not get so lucky. By the time you get home, slip into bed and crack the foil, you’re missing the fresh red onion! Or that banana pepper tang?! You gonna go back and complain? Nahhh - but it does get my proverbial panties in a twist.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“So went to this place today. I actually ordered the wrong thing. I was supposed to order Chop cheese the ocky way. Instead I just said regular chopped cheese. The gentleman was very kind enough to remake my sandwich the ocke way which has a beef patty. This was delicious. I do not have to go to New York for my ocky way chopped cheese anymore.“

“I can’t say enough good things about this hidden gem I discovered. As someone who grew up surrounded by authentic Italian cuisine, my standards are sky-high—but this place exceeds them all. Everything is well crafted with love and passion that you can truly taste. I’ve sampled multiple items, and every single one has been nothing short of just like home.

The owners, Sergio and Fatima, are an absolute delight. Their warmth and dedication to their craft make every visit feel like coming home. I find myself here two to three times a week for lunch because it’s just that good. Supporting them feels like a privilege, and I wholeheartedly recommend this spot to anyone who craves Italian food made with care and authenticity. It’s easily one of the best spots I’ve ever been to locally, and I can’t imagine a week without it!“

“The staff is very nice, some even remember your previous orders (even upon my second ever visit). The food is good standard deli fare plus a few Asian additions such as Korean Bulgogi as well as Ramen and Udon soups. Wide variety of beverages and the prices are fair. Indoor seating available and CC/Debit accepted. Would certainly recommend.“

“Simple excellent food.“

“The Best 🌟🌟🌟🌟 reminds me of my Nona and PopPop’s house every Sunday.“
