50 Best Delis near Riverdale

“Stopped in for lunch on our way to Adirondacks and felt immediately welcomed (even though we arrived 20 min before closing). My husband had a western egg sandwich and the homemade corned beef hash, which was exceptional. I had a tuna sandwich and while it’s hard to get excited about tuna fish, it was a perfect sandwich. This is the type of neighborhood place that every town had at one point - a place where people met to eat, share the news of the day, connect - and of which there are too few today. A real gem.“

“So I have driven by this place for way too long without ever stopping in or looking into it further. So tonight we're going to friends house to have a group Christmas cookie bake. And I said You know what why don't we try bringing Polish food, as my wife is Polish and she considered trying to make pierogi as part of the Christmas cookie bake.

So I ordered four dozen pierogi of different flavors, kielbasa and onions, and stuffed cabbage. I went over to pick everything up this morning and I walked in and it was like a Polish heaven. Imagine a deli, many grocery store, and bakery all combined. They had my order ready they brought it out and the customers had to help me understand what they were talking about because they were all talking and Polish!! So you can't get any more authentic than that.

Upon coming home I was getting things ready, and figured before I brought it to my friend's house I just had to try a few things, which meant try one of everything. Well the kielbasa is probably some of the best kielbasa I've ever had in my entire life. The blueberry pierogi was a new experience and was absolutely delicious... The other pierogies were amazing, and the stuffed cabbage was absolutely delicious.

If you go into the listing on Google and just scroll down you'll see the menu in both Polish and English. Portion sizes are huge, their daily specials look absolutely amazing.

Since ordering from there earlier in the week I was mentioning it to a few people and two other people said that they have been going there for years and the food is amazing.

So don't be like me that drives past it forever before trying it. Go there order lots, and enjoy some fantastic Polish food!!“

“Oh man… where to start. The service was phenomenal, great recommendations, great atmosphere, the owner, Ms. Dana greeted us with a smile, Nikki the manager was great to deal with. Now the food… I had the special, “The Gobbler” and it was unbelievably tasty. The crunch from the toasted bread, the flavors all together were a symphony on my taste palette. My gf got the “Toni Ann” and she couldn’t talk while we were eating together because she wouldn’t stop stuffing her face. After she said the chicken cutlet was cooked perfect, mozzarella was fresh, peppers were exquisite. Overall experience was just mind-blowing. I’d recommend Ferraro’s to any person, local or travelers, you NEED to stop and eat here.“

“WOW the potato pancakes are AMAZING! Just like my Nanny’s ❤️“

“great heroes. delicious, filling, well priced, quality meats.“

“This place cranks out the best Taylor ham egg n cheeses. Any negative review you see of this restaurant is false. Seriously, get the TEC w SPK on a roll and you will literally soon after be telling someone else about how delicious it was.“

“We had Big Mouths cater a party for us, and it was fantastic! We had Hot & cold sandwich trays and two delicious hot dips. I highly recommend!“

“My husband and I were visiting from New Orleans and stumbled on this little spot. Oh wow! The food is amazing! The absolute best sauerkraut I’ve ever eaten. The potato pancake was perfect. There was a spinach dish, that I don’t recall the name of, but it was outstanding. The peirogis were delicious. Absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back.“

“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!“

“I recently moved to North Haledon and was recommended this place from a neighbor. When I say I am happy to have found this deli I cannot stress enough how incredible everything is. The potato salad was like nothing I’ve had before, the roast beef sandwich was to die for. Excellent food and staff. I am so so happy to live in a great town with arguably the state’s best deli.“

“Food and service were amazing!“

“😋 We eat at this restaurant whenever we travel from VA. to RI. Every meal is delicious! Everyone is friendly. We love this place!😎“

“Listen I've tried pizza all over NJ this place absolutely hits different.. Not a thin pizza or a regular its a SQUARE pizza but do NOT get this confused with a Sicilian. Everything is made to order!!! We got a Chicken parm pizza with vodka sauce well done.... They told us 25 mins. Went to pick it up and was chatting with someone who seemed to be the owner. (Didn't ask) I said this is our first time ordering from you, she said your going to love this pizza. She then said I'm sorry it's taking so long with the ricotta... My mind intrigued I said for what, she said, going in the vodka sauce..... I wish I had a picture, but we absolutely destroyed it. Huge chunks of chicken cutlets as well! I recommend not to walk or stroll but RUN to get this pizza! Highly recommend and definitely didn't disappoint I will be back. Also got a list of their specials, which change weekly/biweekly as I was informed.“

“This is such a great place. The food is wonderful the atmosphere is great and service is out of this world. I would recommend if your sick or just a soup lover to get their chicken and rice soup. Its thick and hearty with shredded chicken. The fresh mozzarella is like 10 dollars for this small ball but worth it. They make great spaghetti sauce and have wonderful sandwiches too but I'm cutting back on bread so I can't say I've had them that much“

“Working at a house in the area and this place was 8 minutes from the jobsite. It's a bit expensive but saves you from running down the mountain so you're paying for convenience. Tried the taylor ham, egg and cheese. It was prepared well and the roll was super soft. Was it New Jerseys best? Definitely not, but overall it was decent. Co-worker got a sandwich off the board, believe it was the Susie. Once again, not blowing your socks off, but still decent. Definitely at the top end of deli pricing but an ok spot to grab a bite. Service was slow but we didn't call in and it seemed like they were a bit busy. Staff was polite.“

“I live in Bucks County, PA, but had a meeting nearby so went to Market Basket for lunch. The sandwich was AWESOME and the people were super nice!“

“Everything is so fresh and amazing.“

“Tomato Alfredo Soup has always been my favorite...used to travel from PA for it, now a little closer and always worth it! 😋😋“

“I grew up in the area and knew Otto when I was a child. I later knew his son Elmud. This is an old style deli where they used to slice cold cuts to order. Their Peppy Potatoe salad and coleslaw is the best on planet earth. There always used to be a big jar of jawbreakers and fireballs at the cash register. The smell of the pickle barrel and deli meats was classic and so good’“

“This place is AMAZING! Great staff??delicious sandwiches?AWESOME CATERING?My family has been ordering from here for years and have never been disappointed. Italian Hero, Roast Beef & Cheddar, Salami Fresh Mozz & Roasted Peppers are made to perfection.We’ve had them cater multiple events with subs, wings, and apps and we’re constantly having to tell everyone where we got the food.Would give more stars if I could. Looking forward to my next visit✨

Parking: Street parking out front. Public parking lot across the street.“

“Was being punished and doing a little time in Fairfield in the winter, I'm from San Diego. However Bobby's saved me on multiple fronts... Stellar and reasonable food and great company. Where else can I walk in and hear the soundtrack to the Godfather and hear an ongoing debate about who the bad guys were in that movie! I'll find my way back there, you heard it from me!!“

“Tony Boys has amazing sandwiches but also generous and kind owners who give back to the community and schools. Their salads are good too but their hot sandwiches are phenomenal!“

“Delicious German food menu for lunch!“

“The food was fresh, sandwiches were fresh, and the big ? price was well worth the freshness. I will definitely go back. So I had to go back to try their breakfast, and it definitely didn't disappoint bacon egg and cheese. Look at this big, beautiful sandwich.“

“I can't give a full review because it was my 1st time visiting the establishment. I can give a review of what I ordered & of the person that served me. Everything looked & smelled good. The person who served me was kind & friendly. I had the picadillo with white rice, sweet plantains, a fried yuca fritter, & a side of beans. It all was very tasty, with the exception of the fritter. My only qualm was the pricing for what I ordered. It came to $29, including 2 bags of cheese doodles.Would I go back... Yes. Everything looked vibrant & fresh... I wanted to try EVERYTHING.“

“delicious falafel!!!! my bf loved his cheesesteak too!!!“

“EVERYTHING is GREAT!!!!....“

“I was in the area and decided to stop in for a sub. My bf has been coming here for years and swears by this deli as one of the best around.This mom and pop deli is not much to look at from the outside.They have free parking out front with several spots they share with another business.Once inside you can see why they call this place The Parsippany Deli/ Emerald Gifts aka The Irish Deli.As soon as you walk in the front door, they have a glass counter that displays beautiful China from Ireland. They sell teas, marmalade, sausages, bacon, black and white pudding, Irish candies, also Brennan's bread.During the month of March they make and sell homemade Irish Soda Bread.As you make your way to the front counter you will meet owner Eddie, and Avril. They were both very friendly and told me about their business. Posted on the counter is their sandwich and salad menus.The Parsippany deli/Emerald gifts has been in business for 50 years, now I know why. Their prices are reasonable, and everything is homemade. They also do catering.They roast all their own meats like Roast Beef, Turkey Breast, and Baked Virginia Ham. I highly suggest getting a half of a sub. It’s as big as most whole subs.This place doesn’t skimp on their meats, just the opposite.When I got home and opened up my sub I was pleasantly surprised, and couldn’t believe how much meat was on it. It was probably one of the best Italian subs I’ve ever had and I’ve been all over for subs.I ordered their Italian Sub - Ham, Salami, Capocollo they call it Hot Ham, and Cheese. I got mine with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo, oil and vinegar. It was really delicious. I wound up eating a half of a half and saved the rest for later.My bf ordered their Roast Beef n American Cheese Sub. The Roast Beef was cooked perfectly rare and piled on the sandwich with lettuce, tomato, oil and vinegar. He enjoyed it so much he ate the entire thing.I also ordered 2 of their homemade salads. Macaroni and Potato Salad. The macaroni was my favorite. It was rich and creamy.I highly recommend this place, you won’t be disappointed

Parking: They share the spaces with another business. It doesn’t seem to be a problem to park“

“My best friend of over 30 years introduced me to this spot. She passed away in Dec. Of 2022 But I continue to go to Montclair DeliIt's become my favorite place to eat. Their food is amazingly delicious and the service is great. They make you feel like family.“

“Nice bagel and breakfast place. If you get there early before they run out, the bagels are very fresh, moist, and delicious. The many different flavors of cream cheese are always good.For lunch they have a really delicious Mediterranean chicken wrap. They also have a beef Gyro, but I have had better.“

“I ordered 4 trays of deli sandwiches from Henry’s and my staff at TJ Maxx! They were extremely happy with all the tasty goodness! I want to thank the owners and the staff as I get my breakfast from here all of the time!“

“We love their hot foods and grab and go breakfast sandwiches are perfect!! We also order sandwiches every weekend. Love this deli!!“

“Absolutely delish. The special was priced perfect. Chicken salad on rye toast. Pickles were crisp and perfect. Drink and chips included.“

“I've never been here before but ordered a breakfast sandwich and a second sandwich for lunch. Both were freaking fantastic! Even 4 hours later, my lunch was phenomenal. Not to mention, the woman who answered the phone and greeted me at the counter was a firecracker, and I will be back simply bc I really dig the vibe here... and these ladies know how to feed a hungry construction guy with an affordable menu. Thank you! My breakfast and lunch were both AWESOME!“

“Cupsaw Market has amazing food! My family especially loves their breakfast sandwiches and burgers & fries. We believe their Taylor Ham, egg, and cheese sandwich is the best in the area. Above all, we love the family that runs the Market and very much appreciate the community environment they create, embrace, and allow.“

“I'm a native NYer that's been loving in Jersey for 14 years. The only thing I miss about NY is the fast paced service at the deli. Kings Kid is the first time I've found a NJ deli with fast speedy (but still friendly!) Service!!! The breakfast sandwiches were delicious, the store was clean and we'll stocked, prices were fair and great service!! I'll be back!“

“Great food and staff. I go there often and I have never gotten anything that wasn't delicious. The bagels are amazing. Unfortunately I am now gluten free but their gluten free bagels are very good. The salads and the fries are really good too. The prices aren't crazy and the portions are decent. The staff is always friendly and willing to accommodate any special requests that I may have. This is definitely my favorite bagel shop.“

“They serve breakfast and lunch, they also have a daily lunch special, The breakfast sandwiches and coffee are my go to. They are very generous with their portions and the people behind the counter and very friendly. I have been going to this place for years. Max deli keep doing what your doing!!!“

“This is my dad and uncle store l been there inside ever since l was 12 or 11 years old always getting the best cold cuts and snacks they are open 24/7 l recommended y’all tried everything there bc it’s all good food and the ppl n the store are amazing and sweet from what l heard it’s located in paterson🥪🥰❤️“

“Great sandwiches! No service complaints. Haven’t had any incorrect order issues either. I’ve come by for sandwiches quite regularly lately. I would recommend the chicken cutlet sandwich and the cheesesteaks (add chipotle mayo, you’re welcome)“
