Pete’s Deli
“Not only are the sandwiches out of this world, so is the eggplant parm, homemade soup and the homemade Anisette Cookies – ARE THEY GREAT OR WHAT!!”
“The cold cuts are always fresh and delicious.”
“The place is tiny and busy with cases of deli meats, and Italian specialties such as ravioli, manicotti, etc that I assume they make on premises.”

Eggplant Parm sandwiches have always been a comfort food for me so when I saw the raves here for the Eggplant Parm at Pete's Deli I knew I had to try them. Well. thank you fellow Yelpers! A very generous sandwich piled high with delicious eggplant and topped with a big thick slice of fresh mozzarella (you wouldn't believe how many delis cheap out and put sliced store bought mozz- Wrong!) This is a real deli, very small but clean with a couple of refrigerated cases and one frozen. The staff behind the counter couldn't have been nicer. A note, my sandwiches were waiting me for but were not hot. They did offer to warm it up but I knew I would have to heat them up for dinner anyway so I passed. But if you are ordering ahead and you want the sandwich hot make sure yiu let them know. Great find!
Cash only.
Good tasting subs piled high with Thumann's meat. I got an Italian Sub with everything (why not? it's a very Italian place). 3/4" pile of ham, 1/4" salami and 3 or 4 slices high of provolone. I was a bit bummed to see they didn't throw in peppers or olives.
Italian rolls have a bit of crunch, but are a little on the tougher side for my tastes. Service is a bit sluggish, but friendly. The rest of the food looked appetizing.
This is overall a good, solid local deli, but I wouldn't say it's amazing.
I am mad at myself for living in Nutley for 5 years and not hearing about this gem. It's tucked away on a residential street, and I've never seethed advertised before, but yelp happily led me to them.
The place is tiny and busy with cases of deli meats, and Italian specialties such as ravioli, manicotti, etc that I assume they make on premises. Behind the counter they have fresh baked bread. Think old school Italian deli. My sandwich was delish!
This place is a throwback to a better era when quality mattered and I wish them success for many more years. A place like this puts attention into a meal that a quick check or these gas station deli's can never replicate.
