  1. I was in the mood for a western omelette, so I checked yelp, for places nearby. I saw this place had some good reviews, so I figured I'd give it a try.

    This deli is located super close to me, right off of rt 17 on Moonachie Rd. I drove right past it, while I was looking for it, and I had to make a u-turn, when I realized I drove too far, into a different town. When I finally found the place, parking was a breeze. They have their own parking lot, surrounding the store.

    I ordered my western omelette to go. The omelette came with home fries and toast. It tasted great. Freshly prepared with crisp veggies. The portion was pretty sizeable.

    The price wasn't bad and is comparable to most other delis in this area.

    I saw from the other reviews, that this is a good old school Italian deli. It definately had that look and feel to it. I want to go back and try some of the Italian dishes and as well as their sandwiches.

  2. Very good spot for traditional Italian food and a few NJ/NY twists to boot, for example the Meadowlands Cheese Steak  (Marinara sause and melted mozzarella) the hot bar has some very tasty selections as well, the carbonara tortellini is very good as is the Chicken Parm. Super old school feel and great service. Open at 5am for breakfast but closes by 4:30pm

  3. I usually have instant oatmeal for breakfast, but when I'm craving a little something more, Prova is my go-to choice.

    My favorite foods from this place are the breakfast items. They're made fresh after you order. I have occasionally stopped here for lunch, but I'm not wild about the selections.The portion sizes are usually very generous. I haven't been disappointed with anything I've ordered

    Prova is a pretty small restaurant, but they've manage to fit a decent amount of seating without cluttering everything together. It's well ventilated and kept clean. It's located along Moonachie Avenue with a big sign and plenty of parking outside. You can't miss it.

    Everything is priced decently for an Italian deli. They will even allow reduced pricing for smaller portion sizes. They also accept American Express which is a big plus.

    I do not have any significant complaints in the service category. I am usually greeted as soon as I walk in and addressed nicely when taking my order. They are known for engaging in small talk with their regular patrons. On occasion, I have noticed they don't take orders based on who arrived first. The "line" can get a little unorganized during peak hours and someone who arrived afterwards may end getting served before you.

    Food: 4/5
    Environment: 4/5
    Price: 4/5
    Service: 4/5

    Overall, there are better lunch options in the area, but Prova is a great spot for eating in the morning.
