  1. Best bang for the buck.

    The sandwiches aren't anything "special" but you get a ton of meat, the mozz is fresh, and their red peppers are great. I love their crunchy bread too.

    I couldn't believe how cheap their sandwiches were considering how big they are.

    Staff is efficient and friendly too so that's a plus and makes me want to go back.

    I like the old school feel of their menus on the wall too.

  2. A solid Italian deli with generous portions and good prices.  Though there's nowhere to sit, this small shop attracts a crowd during lunch hour.  A perpetual line of construction, fire fighter, business and other area workers file in getting their dose of prosciutto, turkey, tuna and cappicola.  Selections aren't overly extensive, but you can absolutely find your way to a good sandwich with what they offer.

    Salads and sandwiches alike are well filled and only cost $5-6.  I had a chef salad with ham, salami, fresh mozz instead of provolone and added roasted peppers ($0.50 extra for the peppers brought me to a bargain $6).  The mozz is the fresh, milky style I typically find in Hoboken and old Italian shops.  The salad was served chopped style so the toppings were well dispersed with something good in every bite.  Oil and balsamic dressing with a side piece of Italian bread kept me happy.

    The shop is a bit sparse but does offer some additional Italian treats like nougat candies and crostini.  One of the more interesting things was a jar of effervescence grains (add to your beverage, seal, and POOF!  Carbonation!)

  3. Woke up starving and craving a sandwich…. Came to my fav place and as always amazing!!! Made my day

  4. Cosmo uses high end meats and cheeses on delicious fresh bread at prices that are lower than they need to be, given the product he's putting out.

    Simply the best place for sandwiches in the area, in all facets of quality and price.

  5. I've been wanting to come here for a while now, but I never get here on time. Worth the wait! Enza's Special is an insult to be called a sandwich or a hero – but should be categorized as a gift from above. Yums!

  6. Pretty decent Italian deli, but very limited in its options. Really nice people.

    Unlike a lot of places around, you can get a good (really fresh) turkey sandwich here, although the bread is a little too hard (we're talking sometimes chipped tooth/ bleeding gums kind of hard in places).  I've cut the top off of a sandwich and there's still plenty of fresh bread for a good sandwich.

    The highlight of this restaurant though is the mozzarella, which is made fresh on premises. Don't look too hard for a good side snack – it doesn't exist here. Stick with a side salad or be happy with your huge sandwich.

    Parking kind of sucks, and you will likely wait on line with a bunch of people who think they own the place. They don't deliver, and the specials are not posted online anywhere if you're planning on picking up for a group. Very reasonable prices. Take-out only.

  7. I love the mozzarella and tomato salad with basil- the cheese is so fresh! The sandwiches are big and juicy and delicious!
