Delis near South Amboy

“Mark, the owner of Madison Deli, brought this place back from the dead. It had gone through a number of owners, but it seemed no one could keep this place going until Mark took over. The food is great, and the service is phenomenal. Many years ago, this building was a deli with a soda fountain and grill. It had a long counter with stools. You could get a meal or a quick sandwich and a soda from the fountain. It was well known for its ice cream floats and shakes. My mom actually worked there back then, and I, as a child, spent a lot of time there. This place is still one of my favorite places to get breakfast sandwiches. Mark's staff makes great sandwiches and are very fast to serve.“

“Not only is the food good, but the free psychological counseling Carol provides is absolutely priceless! I love this place.“

“Great location and amazing food and juices!!!“

“I really love the food and the way they care for customers . You definitely can tell that they are passionate about their food. Would definitely go back for more !!“

“Someone recommended I come here and try some of the pre-made specialties. It is a small place, but there is no lack in options. Everything really just looked so good, I picked out a few things for me and my son. I picked up some Chicken francese and chicken Marsala, some marinated artichokes and some seafood salad. All of it, DELICIOUS! I have been a chef for many years so I can be picky and I can tell when places cheap out on ingredients. I did not get that vibe from here. I'm pretty sure I could taste the love. Highly Highly recommended“

“First off the burger was DELICIOUS! I got the el paso burger and I was impressed by how the chipotle mayo actually had some kick. The owner(I believe) is super nice and didn't make me feel rushed. The only reason why it's missing a star is bc I wish the patty was a liiiittle bit bigger. But other than that, the ingredients are clearly fresh. Thank you!“

“I come here for breakfast & they are truly the best in the area & have the best prices. I also come here for lunch. This time I ordered this turkey, ham, lettuce & tomato with mozzarella, salt & pepper & mayo. It's not only the food. It's the ppl, the service and the quality. Nothing but the best.“

“Best Sandwiches, salads, specials, Amazing meatballs, high quality ingredients. Do yourself a favor and try this deli, you will be hooked!!!“

“Food was really good. Staff was friendly. I’d stop here again if I was in the area.“

“Great food. Great prices.“

“Bought around $600.00 worth of kielbasa and related sausage there today to take back to Wisconsin. Amazing real Polish sausage shop where you can hear the customers order in Polish. Donna is the sweetest and so helpful. I would have liked to just sit down and learn more of their history.“

“Love it here coming from Paterson to try this place very great service and delicious food“

“Tienen una amplia variedad de deliciosos sándwiches y jugos naturales. Una excelente atención y servicio rápido !! Lo recomiendo 💯“

“Everone has a favorite "hidden gem" story. Mine is a special place where they can get a great sandwich deal. They will fill your stomach and not drain your wallet. This high value sandwich shop is so special these days while we all struggle with a low value dollar.“

“Pick One, you can’t go wrong!“

“Consistent good food and portions. Friendly staff.“

“I am Polish-American and this food tastes like my Babci made it. Food was outstanding: Pork Cutlet,Pierogie, Fish,and cucumber salad. Best Bigos ever! Scrumptious deserts. Friendly and efficient staff. I didn't even get a chance to look through all the store had to offer. It was clean and bright. Can't wait to go back there.“

“Great place. Helpful staff and clientele. Prices are awesome for sandwiches. The only issue is going early. It's really busy around 7-7:30 am and parking is difficult. It's because it is such a great place; worth short-term frustration. Tops in my book

Parking: Locals love it as well as people I work with in a town nearby. Now I am sold on this place“

“10/10
An jalapeño lovers dream!
I tried the 6 inch veggie sandwich. It came fully loaded with fresh veggies and special sauces. Each bite was filled with surprising flavours.
I highly recommend these sandwiches sealed with freshness!

#must try“

“Awesome! Hooks us up by wrapping subs for the boat. Spot on. Great people, great food,“

“Some of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten. And the staff are awesome.“

“the food is great! I live this place. service is outstanding.“

“I ordered a chicken parm hero.. the bread was the best part.. the guy microwaved.. I repeat MICROWAVED the chicken for the chicken parm.. surely there’s a better way ? A little toaster oven maybe? But microwave a chicken cutlet ? 🤦🏻‍♀️I’ll go back to buy bread but never a hero“

“My favorite breakfast and lunch place in the area! The absolute best egg and cheese pork roll!! It’s so good that I constantly crave it and even better, the prices are extremely reasonable. The cold cuts are also really, really good. $2 large coffee is also amazing! The best part is that this place is family run and Mr and Mrs. Lee are the sweetest people who always brighten my day“

“Great selection. Produce is always fresh and prices are good.“

“You want great food prepared the way you requested w/ some REAL down to earth people that treat new customers like regulars and remember what you ordered from day to day, then come to this place …… The lady behind the counter actually reminds me of the old school deli workers I so love about Brooklyn and the times that customer service actually meant something to someone! You can tell by the vibe and customers in there that this place is a blessing to the community. Keep up the good work and I hope to be back daily for years to come!“

“Amazing cheesesteaks since day 1 that I’ve tried them, taste has been solid!! Pure bangin 😋👌🏼“

“I have been coming here for over 15 + years. The food is the best! The family that owns it are so nice and I think it’s the best place for polish food. I’ve tried other places that people have suggested in nearby Linden but none are as good as here!“

“I've been going to this place since I was a kid with my mother and Grandmother. the bologna is delicious. the kielbasa is amazing. the handmade pierogies, so good. I now take my kids there..“

“My Husband and I wanted to try a new Deli spot. Googled Deli around
My area and out of many choices I had this place caught our attention and we don’t regret going. Had pancakes 🥞, scrambled egg 🍳 and turkey bacon 🥓 and it was delicious 😋. Service was great. The man attending us was very nice to us . Atmosphere was great as well. Will be going back. I recommend this place 💯.“

“Today I ordered tuna hero it id delicious and plentiful also ordered homemade potato & macaroni salad. Last time it was Roast beef I can’t recall the time before but everything has been delicious. I’d like to try some hot meals & also their meat looks great, I have to inquire about delivery. Part of my childhood memories were riding to Rocco’s Deli on my bicycle as well.“

“This post is long overdue. however; over Easter my aunt in NJ sent me two large kielbasas to Illinois (since she knows how much I miss jersey food in general) but kielbasa was always an Easter staple in our house. For whatever reason Joe's had my wrong shipping address and couldn't get ahold of me bc my voicemail was full. One day I saw a post on their page and I liked it. they responded right away... "Lauren Carr call us!! we have your kielbasa and don't have your correct address." The food got sent back to them. The lady I spoke with was super sweet and said she would send us a brand new package. I highly recommend this business. And, the customer service that comes along with it. Thank you Joe's!!! We are highly satisfied customers. Ps... their pierogies are the BEST TOO!!!!! 💗“

“BEST Cheesesteaks around, no one comes close“

“Best sandwiches on the island, high quality and very affordable. Friendly staff that all speak multiple languages, very helpful. You don’t have to be polish to shop here for groceries and delicacies, they don’t mind translating or explaining their products.

I started coming here for the 9$ delicious sandwiches but slowly started buying the imported snacks and groceries. Everytime I’m in the area, I make it my business to stop here and grab some food.

Try it if you haven’t already!“

“Absolute must stop here whenever I’m passing through. Easily accessible from all major highways. Ildiko keeps this shop neat and tidy and the meats are fresh and taste as you expect. For all those hard-to-find Magyar specialties and ingredients this is where you need to go. Nice selection of prepared meals you can take and heat, as well as handmade kohlbasz and szalami are always tasty. Plenty of free street parking.“

“The breakfast menu is a parade of delights, featuring the ‘Keyport Special’ Breakfast Sandwich1, a local favorite that’s sure to satisfy. The eggs are always cooked to perfection, whether you prefer them scrambled soft or over easy, and the pork roll is a savory treat that echoes the authenticity of New Jersey’s culinary heritage. But it’s not just the food that makes Keyport Deli special; it’s the service. The staff greet you with smiles as warm as the coffee they serve, making you feel like part of the family. Their attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond ensure that every visit is memorable. For those seeking something different, Keyport Deli is also planning to introduce exotic spicy Indian food and snacks2, promising to add a vibrant new dimension to their already diverse menu. In a world where the hustle and bustle can be overwhelming, Keyport Deli offers a haven where the food is hearty, the coffee is strong, and the service is unmatched. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, make sure to start your day at Keyport Deli – where every breakfast feels like the best part of waking up.“

“This gem is located in my hometown. They make EPIC breakfast sandwhiches + lunch. They also have wide selection of vape products, discounted when buying more than one + a loyalty card the gets you the 10th vape free.

The owner is very nice and the guys that work the later half of the day are great too. I definitely recommend!“
