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.

Compact italian deli in Hackensack.. Cash only.. The line can be crazy.. but quality food and freshly made specials. I had the meatball sub. The meatballs were light and delicate. The bread perfect.. But needed more sauce because the meatballs didn't have a lot of spices. Sliced commercial mozzarella.😞. Needed more sauce to give it flavor otherwise, delicious
This place is the real deal. I've been ordering their eggplant parm for years and it's the best. Incredibly fresh mozzarella, lightly breaded thin sliced eggplant and sauce so good that I end up drinking the rest out of the container. Eggplant Parm is Tues and Friday and it sells out early. Today I tried their chicken Parm and it is probably the best chicken Parm sandwich I've had ever in Jersey. The mozzarella is so fresh and the breading on the chicken is light and perfect. The place is cash only and very very reasonably priced for the amazing quality of food they offer here.
This place is a gem. Not many old school Italian salumerias left anymore. Wish this place could stay open forever.

Hands down the best Mozzarella in New Jersey. Wonderful service, amazing Roast Beef. Highly recommend
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!

All I can saw is WOW for their chicken parm hero. Generous portion, tender chicken and BIG slice of homemade mozz makes this sandwich perfect!.
