I've tried a lot of their rolls, loaves, and pastries, and they've never missed.

I haven't been there for awhile due to my getting older no more busses on the ave and my not having a car. I've tried other places but for me not even edible when the Italian bread is mushy or they say they have hot peppers but I always find sweet or roasted so it's goodbye jack! Im going to have to make it my business to get to Andrea's Salumeria because it the best!

I have been buying sandwiches or Italian deli items from Andrea Salumeria for a while now. I love…read moretheir pasta salad, fresh mozzarella, pantry items... a classic Italian deli and a treasure in the neighborhood. A couple days ago, I took a leap of faith and ordered "Pete's Special Tuna" sandwich. This is not an ordinary tuna sandwich. They open a fresh can of Italian Tono in olive oil and chop in seasoning, sweet peppers (I go half and half with sweet and spicy peppers) and lettuce. It's my favorite sandwich of the moment. Perhaps the best tuna sandwich I've ever had. If you're a tuna sandwich aficionado you MUST try this.

I was stuck in Newark yesterday and wanted something beyher than the Best Western restaurant, so I…read morepulled up UberEats and found Veloce. Sandwiches were excellent. The one with pesto, chicken cutlet, and tomato packed a ton of sharp garlic flavor in every bite, while the basic chicken parm with cheese was also delicious. Sandwiches are gargantuan--one easily feeds two hungry people. I would recommend going there if you have transportation (I did not) because they arrived a bit cold and very late on UberEats (but I don't fault the restaurant for any of that).

Ordered: Cold Sandwich #4 (~$18): Chicken Cutlet,…read moreMozzarella, Lettuce, Tomato, Cherry Peppers, Chipotle Mayo, No Bacon, Add Red Onions on Seeded Semolina Bread Aya's take: Veloce is popular in JC and I'm mad it took me this long to try it! I ordered their Cold Sandwich #4 via Grubhub and I appreciate that their prices are the same as their website. The chicken cutlet is nicely seasoned and has a good thickness. It does get slightly overtaken by the mozzarella simply because of the size of it. The seeded semolina was soft, slightly chewy, but mostly fresh. I absolutely loved the chipotle mayo and cold crispness of the lettuce and fresh tomato that brightened each bite. I know this is a cold sandwich but I would honestly prefer it if the chicken cutlet and semolina bread was warm. They had other sandwiches that caught my eye, so I'll just have to go back soon. Good try!

If you been rocking since 1919, mi amor, I **have** to come see what's going on. That alone made me wanna pull up And let me tell you... I walked from Jersey City Heights down to downtown -- not a bad walk at all, un chin de cardio before breakfast . Real "treat yourself, mi amor" type of morning. Soon as I walked in... BABYYYY I felt like I got teleported straight into a little Italian market Shelves full of Italian goodies -- pastas, oils, snacks... I was like *yo quiero todo esto* It was giving *ciao bella, benvenuti, mangia mangia* vibes all day. The staff? Súper nice. No attitude, no rush -- just good energy. I told them it was my first time and asked what they're known for, and they really put me on No gatekeeping over here. My husband got the #7 (on a roll) I got the #8 (on a bagel) We sat outside and did what married people do... switched sandwiches halfway Now listen... mine was good -- turkey, egg, pesto... she was cute, she had flavor, estaba bien ‍ BUT HIS?! Ese sándwich estaba otro nivel. I don't know if it was the roasted peppers or what but *Dios mío*... delicioso, chef's kiss Only thing? Next time I'm switching my bagel for a roll porque ese pan estaba hitting different. The roll? Soft, fresh, perfecto. Also... let me tell you about the BACK They got frozen pastas, little Napoli-style dishes, a whole meat section that looked crazy fresh, and you can order cold sandwiches too. Esto no es solo un deli -- it's a whole Italian experience, okurrr. And yes... it's a *little* pricey, no te voy a mentir. Pero honestly? You get what you pay for. Calidad, sabor, vibes -- todo está ahí. I skipped the coffee porque estoy tratando de behave con el budget but next time? And I'm coming back for that banana pudding porque I'm obsessed no shame. They got a little patio if you wanna sit, or you can take your food to the park and have a whole picnic moment. Real main character energy. Ponte linda, grab your sandwich, and just vibe out. Overall? 5 stars Good food, good vibes, buena gente. CARGIANO'S said "treat yourself" y yo dije... say less

For my daughter's birthday they gave her a box of David's cheese seeds, which tells you everything you need to know about the kind of people they are. They even hooked me up with a Puchu's hat, which I wear proudly. The two brothers who run it are awesome. They're twins, one's always got this huge smile, the other is a little more low key, but both are genuinely good guys who treat people right. They've got a little bit of everything. Maybe not every single item under the sun, but all the essentials are there. Produce, snacks, chips, salsa, rice, taco kits, all the random things you realize you need at the last second. It's just easy. Hours are what they are, but honestly, these guys show up for the neighborhood and that's what matters. Friendly, reliable, and just solid people. I love Puchu's and I'm really glad they're around.
