I like this place a lot, it's called, "Cosmo's Salumeria" in Hackensack, NJ and I've been wanting…read moreto try this place for at least a year because it was ranked in the top 25 by The Star Ledger. This day I said, "Today is the day and I'm getting a freaking sandwich from this joint.", so I rode my road bike here and it was a good 25 minute bike ride to get there. But when I finally got there it was surprisingly closed. I was confused because Yelp says they open at 8am and here I was there at 8:30 am and closed. I was super disappointed and was like ok today isn't the day I'm getting this sandwich but hey at least I got a nice workout getting here and back. Just when I was about to leave something told me to call and lo and behold Cosmo answered. He said they open at 9am and that he was making fresh mozzarella before they opened for the day. I told him on Yelp it says your open at 8 am and he said Yelp makes up their own hours but for me to wait and he'll make me the sandwich and it should be ready in 10 minutes. Awesome and he did do the selection #1 sandwich in 10 min and all before he was officially opened for me consisting of sopp, capp, salami, ham, fresh mozz, sharp provolone, sweet peppers and LTO. That was awesome customer service to me. So as I went inside to pay, he told me $10. In my mind,"I'm like seriously for this heavy sandwich I thought it would be at least $12. What a great deal" I thought. I paid and thanked him and rode my bike home burning off some calories before putting them back with this sandwich . It is a pretty good sandwich and for the price you would pay at a crappy Subway place. I can see why this place is popular and will be back for more sandwiches. Highly recommend as a good value sub place for the quality of ingredients you get at a great price. You're welcome and remember be nice to each other.

There's many sandwich styles to choose from and I had the Anna Maria and it was excellent.

I asked if I could change the hot pepper spread for the sweet "No Problem ". The service is top notch! I don't think you can get any closer to the taste of a sandwich in Italy so this is the next best thing. Make sure to stop by and find out what's your new favorite sandwich!

There's also the usual convenience store stuff - chips, tylenol, detergent, bread, newspapers, sodas, lottery, etc. There's a really nice couple that owns the place and is always there, calling everyone "honey." They're efficient and seem to run a tight ship with their staff. The coffee area is kept immaculately clean even during the morning rush. It's still a convenience store deli, but the quality is well above average for the area. Two warnings - when busy, the parking lot is tiny and people seem to forget common courtesies, and it's cash only. ATM inside of store.

They have a wide variety of sandwiches and deli meats for sale, and a beautiful steam table full of wonderful Italian food that will make your mouth water. Next time you're in the area, instead of going to subway or some crappy chain restaurant for lunch, support your local businesses and get lunch from these guys, they've been in business over 75 years for a reason, and they are wonderful people to boot.

We ordered a regular philly stacked (which is 50% more meat), and a regular chicken bacon ranch. Neither were very good. The philly tasted like they just heated up some roast beef, and the chicken bacon ranch tasted like the frozen breaded ground chicken patties you get from costco. The bread was pretty good though, so I'm thinking their hot sandwiches may not be so popular, and people probably come here more for the cold cuts. I wouldn't mind trying a cold cut sandwich in the future.

When I was in there, I saw the stuffed bread. After a bit of a conversation about what was in them I opted to get two of them one with broccoli Rabe And one with mixed vegetable vegetables. Boy were we both unhappy with what we got. My boyfriend's father found his braciole and sauce to be so salty it was inedible. He likes food and he is rarely disappointed in an Italian meal. But he said it was so bad that he couldn't even eat it. He ended up throwing it away. I was equally disappointed. Maybe more so. There was no way that vegetable roll was made that day let alone any sooner than two days before. It was so stale. It was hard as a rock. And I hadn't even heated it up. I cut into it right after I brought it home. It also tasted stale. I ended up throwing it away too. Broccoli Rabe roll was a tad better. It wasn't hard as a rock. But it wasn't fresh either. It tasted meh. The only thing I was happy with are the prepackaged taralli. They were imported and were lovely. Go there for the prepackaged imported food products. Don't waste your money on the dicey homemade food experience.
