We stopped Summit NJ to pick up a Ski jacket I purchased on FB on the way to Vermont. By chance I walked into Zappia's and ordered a Ruben for the road. I got in my car and started driving and my 16yo (who does not like any food I like) asked what was in the bag. I told her it was a Ruben. She promptly devoured 1/2 of it and informed that it was "the best sandwich ever". I ate the other half and it was by far the best Ruben I have had in eons! It was so good we opted to go over an hour and 1/2 out of our way on the way home 3 days later to get two more. It's was worth the trip. If you live in Summit you're lucky to have a Deli like this one near you. The people were very friendly and the food was fantastic. Thank you Zappia's!

Zappia's catered our daughter's Baby Shower and they did a terrific job. We used their recommended servers and bartender, who I believe are called "We're having a Party" and they could not have been more accommodating and friendly. They even helped us set up the tables and chairs and carefully packed up all the leftovers, The food was amazing and we especially loved their delicious Tortellini Bolognese! All the entrees were very tasty.

The salads were delicious but unfortunately, I didn't check them before I left the building, only to learn later that the Endive salad was missing the Gorgonzola cheese, which would have made the experience and salad better.

Really terrific sandwiches, nice folks. I just spent a week in town for work, and I ate lunch here every day. Try The Zap.

Darn good sandwiches, tasty and not too expensive. Their hot subs rock. They open at 7 AM, which can be convenient.

Had the Surgeon General sandwich at an event hosted by Summit Tennis Association today and I loved it.
Loved the open seating. Perfect for dining semi-al fresco for those that like outside but not the sun. Prices decent. Pizza needed more sauce and the cheese had no real flavor but the crust was EXCELLENT! Light, airy, crisp... baked PERFECTLY!

I had a small event 6-8ppl and ordered from Zappias. Since it was such a small event the catering menu didn't really work for us. Nick was wonderful to work with. We spoke over the phone and email. They made special portions of the salads, a small tray of rollatini and sandwiches. The food was delicious, delivered on time and came with plastic serving utensils.However, on another occasion I had a less than wonderful experience. Around 3pm I placed a regular delivery order to be delivered at 6:30pm. The delivery was over 30 minutes late and missing an item in the order. When we called they provided a gift card. Favorites: white pizza, strawberry field salad, eggplant rollatini, blackened salmon sandwich, endive saladThe quinoa salad is okay but the name is slightly deceiving; it's a spinach salad with a sprinkle of quinoa.

Get catering from here!! We ordered chicken parm, penne vodka, mixed salad, and chicken francese and they were all super delicious. The staff is great and helpful when choosing portions for the amount of people we were having. Would definitely order again!!

Conveniently located downtown and near the train station, Zappia's is a great spot to stop and grab a sandwich. The bread for their subs was probably the best part about the food, it was delicious.Their menu seems large, but also somewhat limited in that there are only about 6 types of subs to choose from and nearly all involved multiple types of meat versus a simple ingredient list. (The menu online is larger than what was posted in the deli.) It was not clear if you could get the panini ingredients on a sub sandwich, for example. They were very short staffed on a weekend lunch hour - there were two men at the prep counter and one woman who was manning the register, taking orders, answering phones, and making sandwiches - and there was a line backed up waiting so it wasn't the right time to ask about menu swaps. It is also a full-service deli to get sliced meats and cheeses. The messy prep counter and the way multiple orders were being made at once by the same individuals means this deli is definitely NOT allergen or cross-contamination friendly.The prices initially seem a little high, but the sandwiches are larger than most delis or chains like Subway, the "half" size is comparable to a full sandwich elsewhere.
The best deli in the state, hands
