“The best sandwiches in the area“

“The reviews are all true . This is real deal Italian neighborhood food ! Homemade soups, cold sandwiches that don’t cut corners, hot subs done properly, liquor available, and genuinely good service from a family-run spot planted in one of New Jersey’s strongest Italian communities.

The power move is the steam table in the back. That’s where the nonna cooks whatever she felt like winning with that day.

Daily specials, rotating, well seasoned, zero shortcuts. I’ve tried several. They don’t miss EVER 🔥🔥

Daily specials change constantly and are posted on their website. Skip the trendy places pretending to do this. This one actually does“

“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.“

“Everything delicious: Best Italian sub sandwich; eggplant parmigiana. Going years. No exaggeration“

“Simple excellent food.“

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

“Just had my son’s graduation party catered by La Strada. My guests raved about the food. My cousins and I are bonafide foodies, and we all agreed the food was outstanding. Additionally, the quantity of everything was plentiful. Today, I’ve gotten texts and calls about the delicious leftovers! This place gets my highest recommendation. Truly exceptional.“

“One of the most delicious turkey sandwiches I’ve ever had. I am so happy Stephanie, one of our teachers arranged to have a creative twist on a Thanksgiving teacher luncheon! It turned out to be a wonderful time had by all, because of such scrumptious sandwiches! Will definitely be going back again for second’s third’s, fourth’s……………….“

“Not only is the food great, but they are incredibly friendly and remember everyone who comes through. By my 4th visit they had my order memorized and when I lost my voice I didn’t even have to say a word and they took amazing care of my lunch experience. I only have a short lunch window each day and every time I’m there, without fail, they are able to give me a quick and convenient experience without sacrificing the pleasant atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Got a turkey melt the first time it was great 10/10. Went back again they were all out but the guy made me something similar n it was just as good 10/10 !! Also great price I got one turkey melt bag of chips a soda and Mac n cheese for 20$! It’s good quality too“

“I tried this place for lunch and the sandwhiches here are great, fresh bread, well-dressed and cooked Halal meats... << It is so hard to find places that only serves Halal meats in Hackensack.

This place is truely a hidden gem in Hackensack for a quick bite for lunch. I will be coming here more often for lunch, as I would like to try other items on their menu.“

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

“Just recently found out this deli offers full meals on Friday. We pick it up before they close and it serves 8-10 people. This week is pesto Chicken breast, linguine in a light olive oil and onions (or maybe shallots) and sun dries tomatoes. Salad, dressing and bread.Last week was meatloaf (to die for), mashed potatoes, sautéed string beans and of course, bread and salad. It lasted me all week for lunches at work.“

“This place blew me away. The food was great and the portions are great too you’re paying for quality. On top of the great food you’re being greeted by amazing staff. My friend told me about this spot and before telling me anything about the food he told me about the people who work there. When I walked in I was treated as a friend not a customer I felt very welcomed. I could tell this staff member puts people first and respects everyone. I’m definitely going to keep sharing this spot to my friends and people I know“

“My 16 yr old son insists that we go to Wyckoff Deli several times per week after school for their phenomenal fresh turkey BLT on toasted multigrain bread with mayo. If you like turkey carved off the bone and bacon cooked just right, this is the place! Try it. You will not be disappointed. And you can’t beat the friendly and accommodating staff!“

“They’re food never disappoints! I personally love their classic Italian sub and tuna salad, but they’re famous for their eggplant parm and soups.“

“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!“

“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“

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

“Great spot with a solid menu and a really nice vibe. I was especially happy to see they offer vegan food options too, which aren’t just afterthoughts. Everything we tried was fresh and flavorful, and the service was friendly. Definitely a place I’d come back to.“

“Their home-made hot foods are amazing as well as their sandwhiches and prices. It is closer than Hoboken for me as well! Been a fan favorite for years 🤩“

“Craig D’s is the best! I just had them cater a baby reveal and everyone raved about the food! We are not even local anymore but I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Craig prepared the best variety of delicious heroes and salads. If you want fresh, delicious food & great service I would definitely recommend Craig D’s!Forgot to mention, they also deliver!“

“Was wanting to try a deli sandwich from a local deli and this place did not disappoint. Had the Italian combo on a hoagie and it was absolutely delicious! Loved the staff as well. They were so kind to offer us a small, quaint table in the back of the deli.“

“I’ve been ordering from them now for 3 years, since Northern Michigan doesn’t have a Polish deli nearby. My family loves all of the food and the quality is authentic and delicious.“

“I have made a point to visit this place on every trip to NYC since I first found it in 2021. You will not find better vibes nor a better BEC. I’m very happy to see they’ve expanded into a little bar area and can’t wait to come back at night and enjoy a drink.“

“Have been coming here for 19 years and counting. Guess that is about as good of a recommendation as any.“
