“If you’re looking for a great sandwich spot, Taste of Italia is a must-try! From the moment you walk in, the service is welcoming and the food speaks for itself. The sandwiches are packed with flavor, the ingredients are fresh, and the portions are satisfying. Perfect for a quick lunch or a casual bite—10/10!“

“Blimpie is like biting into the 90s—a time capsule of deli perfection. It’s not some soulless chain; it feels local, like the sandwich shop from your childhood where they knew how to make it with love. The subs are fresh, the prices are refreshingly old-school, and the vibe? Pure nostalgia. Stepping inside, you half-expect to hear a payphone ring. Visit this gem while it’s still around—because places like this don’t stick around forever. Sandwiches are PERFEFTION“

“I visited Subway last weekend and the service from the staff was spectacular. Besides the fact that the sandwiches were really good, I hadn’t had one in a long time and it took me back to my home country. Excellent service and excellent food.“

“I taked to there "my kids" (im a babysitter) to have a açai bowl with a lot of tops. they loved so much and they tried the pao de queijo too, The Best.“

“I order online regularly & I have never been disappointed in the quality of the food, speed & efficient delivery from Sandwell. Will continue to order online & I have referred Sandwell to others with a wide variety of preferences. My new favorite go to delivery place!“

“The vegetarian pizza here is absolutely incredible; fresh, bursting with flavor, and the best I had in NYC. I honestly wish I had found this place sooner, as discovering it on the last day of my four-day stay was a missed opportunity. Appreciate and thanks to the gentleman for pizza, I would highly recommend visiting this place.“

“Great lunches very accommodating for small lunch gatherings. Friendly atmosphere and staff. Delicious home cooked food and Italian specialties“

“Always a great experience at the deli. The owner is very personable and accommodating.“

“Holy crap the sandwich was good it was bursting with flavor and everything in between. The guy helping me gave me 70 free bags of chips and free cookies, of course. My life has been changed forever. The sandwich was so good, for a second I thought my dad returned.“

“Took the kids to Jersey Mike’s after soccer practice today and it was a total win! They loved the turkey sub and I went with the Italian Mike’s way. The staff was super nice and fast, which is a lifesaver when you’ve got hungry little ones. Way better than typical fast food feels like a real sandwich shop. Highly recommend for busy moms and families! We’ll be back soon. 😊“

“Amazing , it’s a cashless place“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ COMPTON’S is the kind of neighborhood gem you want everyone to know about — but secretly hope stays just yours. The sandwiches are massive, flavor‑packed, and clearly made with care. From the turkey hero with lime aioli to the Jaclyn with eggplant, every bite hits that perfect bread‑to‑filling ratio. The Reuben is a must‑try, and their chop cheese deserves all the hype.

What really sets COMPTON’S apart is the vibe: the owners make you feel welcome the second you walk in, and the service is as good as the food. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite at the counter or settling in at one of the few tables, you’ll leave full and happy.“

“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!“

“If you were looking for a cup of coffee and a sandwich at 4:30 a.m. this is your spot! I've been in here several times, and the place is spotless. They only have one small table to sit at, so you shouldn't plan on eating there. There's a big menu and the coffee is always fresh. I always see the same guy working there, and you can tell he knows what he's doing. If you are in the area and need something quick and easy and reasonably priced this is the place to go.“

“FARIA IS THE BEST!!! I come here almost everyday for work on my break. I get the good looking sandwiches. If you are a subway fan then you know Cookies matter just as much as the sandwich. They are always soft enough to bite through made fresh! Don’t even have to warm them up. Keeps a smile on her face and is a face I remember because of how kind she is. The rest of the staff makes sure to answer any questions you may have, as well as, any food allergies you may have.“

“Everything they make is amazing. The sandwiches are bountiful. Fresh ingredients. My fav place“

“desayunos deliciosos los batidos son frescos“

“Delicious sandwiches! The kind you’d travel from afar for just one more taste. All Boar’s Head Products. Fresh toppings and the Best Submarine Bread all combine for that taste of perfection. Best subs I’ve had in all of Jersey.“

“I live within walking distance of this place and it is a breath of fresh air to finally have a mom n' pop place that actually serves food that is not only GOOD FOR YOU but absolutely delicious!!!
Love the food, love the owners even more.“

“I had a wonderful experience at this local subway the customer service was truly excellent i was served by Shravya who made my meal with such care also Peter at check out was fast friendly and courteous!! Excellent customer service at this “

“It had been a little bit since we've been in (life gets in the way sometimes) but as soon as my husband & I walked in the door we were hit with that heavenly Blimpies scent of fresh ingredients that is indicative of Blimpies & Blimpies alone. It just smells like delicious subs. We realized, after speaking to the wonderful owner, that we've been getting the BEST subs in the world at this location for over 40 years! My pick is a "Blimpies Best" (extra oil & vinegar) honestly it was perfect. My husband gets a turkey & provolone which was terrific (he gave me puppy dog eyes & got a huge chunk of mine too)
Eateries come & go but the best stay, this is worthy of place in your rotation.
I should also say that I live in Nutley with quite a few Italian delis & pizzerias so if I'm saying the Italian sub (Blimpies Best) is terrific that's saying a lot.“

“I love this place because every one is so welcoming. One thing though they need to better season their cutlet and maybe make them a bit thinner so they don’t dry out. They’re a bit thick and flavorless. The steak sandwich I had I really liked though“

“I`ve tasted in a couple years ago, and I just can say that is the most delicious sandwich in NJ 😉👌“

“I moved into the area recently and have gone to this location multiple times over the last year two years. Honestly, I’m not sure what it is, not sure who is doing what, but everybody who works behind the counter are some of the friendliest people in food service I’ve ever met! They are genuinely sweet people. Seriously, when you go in there, just strike up a little light conversation. They’re so nice! A pleasure! Every single one I’ve ever encountered behind the counter! Good job!! ☺️“

“Heard about this place online for their famous steak sandwich and decided to take the trip since it seemed relatively close to my neighborhood. Ended up taking a little longer than usual because its in a very population dense area with a lot of traffic and parking was brutal. I wouldn't say it located in the worst area but it's defiantly not a nice area, anyways on to the food. the restraint itself looks very old and beat up but who cares menu has 1 sandwich on it and it's cash only. Id recommend any foodie to come try this place at least once because its a food journey but the traffic and parking and cash only are enough of a hassle to keep me away unless I'm directly in the neighborhood, also try to eat it there because the trip home will take too long.“

“Thank you for your generous support of Eastbrook’s class of 2021! Amazing spread of sandwiches, fixings & even gluten free options!“

“OMG THIS PLACE IS ABSOLUTELY A MASTERPIECE!!!! The food is always so fresh. My first time going to this Wonder location in Midtown. Ahhh so delicious. I’ve been to a few Of these locations & the food is never miss & I am always very satisfied!! 😊😊😊 Who ever invited this chain is a GENIUS 🥳🥳 for reference I ordered from Royal greens & got the Buffalo Salad added Shrimp for only like $5 🙌🏽“

“Thank you to our local Fair Lawn Jersey Mike’s! After supporting our Girl Scout troop while selling cookies, they donated lunch to our girls. Smiles all around!“

“3/23 another delicious dinner from Ikes! chicken parm sandwich. plenty for the two of us. Everything from salads, wings, sandwiches are delicious! service is fast and friendly. recently I have had delivery and the food arrived fast and hot. The hot roast beef sandwich is sooooo good!“

“Friendly crew behind the counter, fast service too. Oh, and pretty good sandwiches too. 👍🏻“

“😀 hey serving sarges now“

“I work in the mall where this Charlie’s location is and I always set my order with one of their employees named Dulce. She’s extremely polite and nice. She always greets me with a smile and remembers my order. Kudos to her she deserves a raise“

“This is the best sandwich place in Nutley. I highly recommend the hot italian lover. We order/pick up from here frequently- too frequently-and I love it. It's a small shop, the kids there are hardworking and kind. Endless support for this business.“

“One of my favorite places to order better than Blimpie sandwiches, Roberto’s, nice and clean. The owner is the worker and the greatest sandwich maker ever I don’t say this about most places but if you’re looking for a great and tasty sandwich, this is the place to go.“

“Great ambiance . Everyone should have a good time.“

“A kind young lady by the name of Ruby attended my mother and I at the start of her shift today. She was very helpful, offered great suggestions and was diligent. Thank you sweetheart for the great customer service :) never let anyone dim your sparkle“

“Nice place to get u coffee Sandwich and u gas 😍“

“I’ve been coming to Troops since I was a teenager, and no matter how much time passes even after moving to Florida this spot NEVER misses. I still make it a priority every time I’m back. The #7? Still flawless. Same flavor, same quality, straight nostalgia in every bite.
This time I brought my wife and daughter with me, and they get it now. This place is part of my story took me right back to my Clifton Speed Center days… #IYKYK.“

My family and I would have this place for Dinner time to time and it would never disappoint. Food is wonderful as always.“
