50 Best Delis near Englewood Cliffs

“Dropped by on a Monday for lunch. Place is not short on choices. A deli and sushi place, what can go wrong. I walked out with two poke bowls, chips, chocolates and stuff. Poke bowls were perfect, a delicious lunch that hit the spot being fresh and healthy to balance the kettle chips. Lol.“

“After a long awaited trip to the store, it did NOT disappoint! I ordered The Casa, fresh mozzarella and burrata. Life may never be the same and I’ll be making more trips to the Bronx for the best cheese I’ve ever had!“

“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.“

“I love there chop cheese and really every sanwich but I hate ordering at night because the young guy with curly hair always has the phone on so that no calls go through. It's pretty annoying especially when you see there's no orders at that time. Overall love the business.“

“Fillmore Deli and Backroom is a pretty solid neighborhood spot with a surprising mix of options. The Korean fried chicken is actually really good crispy, flavorful, and definitely worth trying. They also have a large variety of sandwiches, so there’s something for whatever mood you’re in.

One thing that always throws me off though is they tend to run out of the tuna pretty often, which is strange for a deli. But besides that, everything else seems to be okay. It’s a reliable place to grab a quick bite and the food usually hits the spot.“

“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“

“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.“

“Forget bout everywhere else. Joe’s is the place to go. Mozzarella is the best - light airy milky and when you ask for unsalted you get unsalted. Only problem is that they run out of items if it’s later in the day. So go early.“

“Deliciosos la variedad de tacos que tienes... !!! me encantaron!!!“

“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.“

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

“Plain bagel with veggie cream cheese 👌 just amazing. Perfect about of cream cheese in my opinion, and triple wrapped so it stayed warm and soft to eat when I got back to my destination.
Staff were so kind. It was quick to get in and out also.“

“Best bodega!!! Lived in nyc for years and no place hits like slice n spice. Amazing halal, smoothies, every snack and the ppl have amazing vibes just good customer service. U know when u walk into a bodega and tbe vibes are just off…. Never happens here. Best food!!!“

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

“I cannot speak more highly of this deli. Everytime I come in, I’m immediately greeted, the cooks know my order, everyone is extremely friendly. The food is spectacular and fresh and the prices are FAIR, and service is FAST even in the morning rush. This is the absolute best experience you can have for a deli. Everything is clean as well, and nicely lit. You can tell the employees are treated well and the management keeps this place pristine.“

“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.“

“Love this place. Was visiting from west coast. This deli was exactly what my wife and I needed that day. Missed his name but the guy that helped us was cool. Medium was so BIG! Got a plain turkey and cheese, and a chicken parm. Then a slice of Pizza. Could not finish the Sandos.“

“I agree with everything you said there’s a really delicious wherever you eaten there and even service and everything God bless them“

“Best downtown Deli. Manu sandwiches are phenomenal but they can also make whatever you want. Ingredients are always fresh and clean. Busy for a good reason but never a long wait. Been coming here for the past year and wouldn’t go anywhere else“

“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“

“everything is great“

“The Real Deal In Italian Deli.“

“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.“

“WOW…EXCEPTIONAL food and service! I got spicy japchae with shrimp and egg. This tastes like a home cooked meal and is the best japchae I have ever tasted. You can tell that the Chef poured so much love into it. She even had me taste the sauce while she was cooking! This place is a hidden gem!!! The kimchi is also the best kimchi I have ever had.“

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

“My son and I went here after I did my research to find the best delis in Hell’s Kitchen, and this was consistently the top answer. We had limited time in NYC, so every place we visited had to count, and Sergimmo’s did not disappoint. I had a Caesar salad, while my son had a Pasta al Pomodoro e Basilico. Both were great, and so was the shop owner’s treatment of us, obviously not from around the area. Next time we’re in NYC, we’ll be back!“

“A friend of my wife’s told me I had to stop here and grab a Cajun chicken sandwich with extra sauce and it was amazing! Looking at the reviews it looks like you can’t miss with a chicken cutlet sandwich of any kind. Reasonable prices, incredible sandwiches, bodega vibes. I’ll be getting more sandwiches on my way through Scarsdale from here.“

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

“I recently tried the pastrami sandwich at Gurkha Deli, and it was absolutely fantastic. The pastrami was tender, flavorful, and perfectly layered, and the bread had just the right balance of softness and crunch. Every bite felt thoughtfully crafted.
If you’re looking for a delicious, satisfying sandwich in a warm and inviting setting, Gurkha Deli is definitely worth a visit!“

“Simple excellent food.“

“So on the outside, this place is not so easy on the eyes. It looks like a halfway shut down makeshift deli. When you enter, there is a narrow pathway to the register but a very big sandwich making area with alot of choices and premium meats. I was super hesitant but with limited time decided to give it a chance, I ordered the godfather on a hero. It was the best sandwich I ever had! They even presented it in premium boars head paper with the boars head sticker! The prices were excellent! Give them a chance! You won't be disappointed!“

“First time I ever went there delicious we got three sandwiches so much meat delicious roast beef ham we got turkey lettuce tomato the roll was so fresh. I’m gonna go back again. I live right near the 2 1/2 years. I never went. I recommend it to you.“

“My wife wanted to have my 50th birthday party catered, she was looking on City Island where we reside but the prices were out of control. I reminded her of Tinos, where we have in the past got 3 foot heroes and antipasto platters. We called and that was all she wrote! Delivery on time and the food was out of this world!! Anna hooked us up. We will be going with Tinos deli from now on. Thank you so much!!!! Everything was Amazing!!!!!!“

“Hands down the best deli in the neighborhood. If you’re looking for a place that remembers your face, look no further. Happy staff, good food and a family friendly environment. They may be new, but they represent that old nyc soul every true NY deli has.

As a born and raised NY’er, I tip my hat to their baconeggandcheese.“

“Number 1 in my own personal world since 1994!!! The best and they never disappoint!!“

“Called in for breakfast sandwich. Told the guy I’ll be there in about 5 minutes. When I arrived only one customer in the store and they didn’t even start it. Very disappointed since it is my last day in New York and had to rush to catch the train so I left without anything. love their breakfast sandwiches but they should be mindful when a customer calls in advance it’d be nice to have it ready upon arrival. What really disappoints is that this wasn’t the first time this happened. However I’ll leave 4 stars despite my unfortunate experience because the food does taste great.“

“Best deli in LIC! Never disappoints Always fresh!“

“First time going there got two subs simply delicious nothing like a family style deli especially not corporate prices or fantastic very courteous owners you have to try it you will not be disappointed whatsoever Will be going back no ifs check it out“

“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.“

“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.“

“Five stars for Good Neighbor Queens in the Falchi Building. Best cold brew in the area. This place is a vibe and I love it.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Well stocked true Italian deli with mostly Italian imports as well as an occasional American brand of coldcut or cheese. Five varieties of prosciutto to choose from and extremely sharp aged provolone and parmesagna are the real deal. Long serving deli staff are friendly and attentive, knowing their customers and their preferences. Around the holidays the deli has all the traditional Christmas foods especially panettone galore! The tops of the shelves fill with hundreds of Italian panettone of many elegant varieties: limoncello, hazelnut, pistachio, latte, nutella, even gluten free ppannetone. Prices are a little higher than surrounding import markets but not unmanageable so. This deli is a treasure of Broadway and a perennial favorite.“

“I really love this place. I've been there a good amount of times already. It's a solid and classic NYC spot. You can get a lunch there for cheap and it's good. I like ordering the wraps. Also they're muffins are delicious. Highly recommend them. But to be honest if there is one critique, the cashier can be a bit rude and does not care much. But hey I get the service job grind and also living through unprecedented world events so overall, it really doesn't matter. But if you are someone who really for some reason has to have sycophantic service and notices every single slight or tone change. This prolly isn't the place for you. But otherwise everything is great.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Royal Deli is hands down one of the best spots around! The food is always fresh, delicious, and made with care — you can really taste the quality in every bite. The staff are friendly and welcoming, making you feel like family the moment you walk in. Whether you’re grabbing breakfast, lunch, or a quick snack, they never disappoint. The place is always clean, the service is quick, and the portions are generous. Highly recommend Royal Deli to anyone looking for great food and great people!“
