Big portions and local friendly service. The menu items are fairly priced and did not disappoint. It was difficult choosing what I wanted. The Meg - Huge portion, easily split between two people. The buffalo was not too saucy and a little on the less than average amount of sauce. Chicken was plentiful and it can get messy. Macaroni salad was one of the best I've had; simple. I would come back to try other things on their menu! read more

Neil's Kitchen - The Meg - Delis Near Me - Long Branch, New Jersey

I was surprised to find that there's not a lot of delis down the shore (or at least in Asbury Park area). This is the exact kind of deli I was looking for. They do classic hot and cold subs, but they also have specialty subs where they do parms, wraps, etc. Great to pick up a sub and go to the beach. I enjoyed the American - which is roast beef, lettuce, tomato, provolone, onions, and horseradish mayo (which I left off and did oil and vinegar instead). Roast beef pretty soft in texture. Provolone could have been a little more sharp/flavorful. Overall, excellent spot. read more

We Thought this place would be better in Long Branch- but it was pricy and just eh. Not much flavor. The Two large subs were about $45 ish for deli meat ( Boars Head) and apparently an extra additional charge when I paid by credit card. ( which I found out after I paid so more expensive after the fact when I paid. ) Not thinking will go back.... When there are some other deli subs places better and cheaper. read more

Neil's Kitchen has been a staple for me and my friends whenever we go to the beach over the last few years. Amazing sandwhiches and awesome customer service. The buffalo chicken sandwhich is my favorite. 10/10 recommend. read more

Neil's Kitchen - Buffalo chicken sandwhich - Delis Near Me - Long Branch, New Jersey

One of the best deli sandwich places in the state. Unique and tasty combo sandwiches both hot and cold. A great find!

Update: Been a while since I ordered from here. Reason I stopped going was inconsistency food wise. Circled back recently and had about 5 solid orders of hot subs. Then back to the same old stale sub roll on one and beyond chewy chicken cutlet on another sub. Ok, I get it things happen. But when you mention it to the owner and his response is really? Not I am sorry to hear that or let me make it up to you next time. Paying good money and went multiple times a week I expected more. Take it for what it is. Won't be rushing back. read more

Sandwiches are great So is a he spinach salad Expect to pay high price but don't expect to be disappointed. Tried their cutlet sandwich 13 for the first time and it was delicious! read more

Wow. This place is a gem. The sandwiches are amazing and incredibly filling. I'm not a macaroni salad kind of person but the macaroni salad that's comes with each salad is perfection. We tried the classic Italian, cheesesteak, and #13. All were excellent and huge. I can't wait to come back and try other sandwiches read more

Neil's Kitchen - So good I forgot to take a pic before digging in. This was the #13 - Delis Near Me - Long Branch, New Jersey

Reliably consistent, amazing food, sides, everything. Never once have had a problem ordering here for multiple years. Best deli around, no question. read more

D E L I C I O U S, delicious subs- holy cow. This place is worth stopping by. They give you more than enough meat in every single bite. Everything is high quality, even the bread. The staff was so friendly, helpful and kind. We really enjoyed the fact they had a mob show on tv and some Jets & Mets merch. Check this place out! You won't regret it. read more

The food is excellent and the people are equally as great! I ordered food for my team; 28 separate food orders. The food was amazing!! This was the best cheese steak I've ever had. Trust me you will not be disappointed. The food and service is so good that I added their contact info to our NCAA resource guide for other athletic teams to use as a preferred restaurant when they are playing Monmouth. You must try them if you are ever in the area. read more

While visiting the Long Branch area, I dedicated to stop by here, to try their cheesesteak. I recently saw an article from NJ.com, and they rated this cheesesteak one of the best in NJ. So, since I love a good cheesesteak, I had to try this one. I came on a Friday afternoon, and it wasn't too busy. I ordered the large cheesesteak special. Which came with onions, peppers, and mushrooms all chopped into the meat. The portion of the sandwich was large, so you get a lot for your money. Now, for the taste of the meat, it was delicious. It was cooked and seasoned well, and I really enjoyed that it was chopped thinly with the onions, peppers, and mushrooms, all mixed in with the cheese. I loved the roll that they used as well. The sandwich was just awesome and so good. I can see why it was rated one of the best and makes a top contender for me, too. The rest of the place looked really good as well, for their other deli sandwiches. I will be coming back for sure to try some other sandwiches out. Definitely recommended! read more

I was not impressed with the cheese steak sandwich and the preparer was clearly ill, shouldn't have been handling food

Great place food is awesome. People are very personable. Best Philly cheese I have ever had.

Neil's Kitchen is an institution. An institution of a delicious, variety of homemade goodness! I've been coming to Neils for years almost every week. I have never left disappointed with anything on the menu. I love the hot subs and the soups are a winner any time of year. Anything you order is certain to satisfy. Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you; all that glitters is inside. You know a place is good when it's regular customers are police, fire, EMS & teachers. This is THE local spot in Long Branch for a great sandwich, soup or salad. Their chicken cutlets sandwiches are my go to, add a cup of artichoke soup if you're famished, or feeling a little ambitious. Neil, Sally & Terri are always hustings to serve their crowded dining room. It can get hectic but it's also a place where they know your name and ask how are things. Often local business owners greet and chat while they wait for their food. Local flair and excellent food collide at Neil's and you're going to want to be a part of it! Neil's is my weekly spot and its well worthy of becoming yours too! read more

Was just looking for a different place to stop in and get a quick bite to eat, so on a whim I decided to try Neil's for the first time, and I will most definitely be back, after cashing my check on a Fri. afternoon. I had a ham, turkey and Swiss cheese sub and several hours later, I am still full, and I only had the 7' size. Very overstuffed indeed, with awesome, premium quality meats. The side of macaroni salad is very good and not that obligatory, overly sweet gunk, that many places serve. Made from scratch! Service was also very nice too. Very fast and friendly. Who knows, I may be back this weekend. read more

We were in town for a hockey tournament and wanted to eat a classic Jersey sub so we drove 20 minutes out of way to Neil's Kitchen, they did not disappoint! It's been forever since we had a good sub, everything was on point. We ordered the T-Ranx and the kids had a Turkey sub. The T-Ranx came with very fresh mozzarella cheese, the boars head meats were delish. I'd come back here again read more

Great soup!! Can even sample before choosing, friendly staff and huge choice of sandwiches

My mom and I love Neil's Kitchen! It is one of our favorite places to grab lunch before heading to the beach. We typically get a half size of the American sandwich which comes with roast beef, provolone, L&T, red onion, and horse radish mayo. It also comes with a little cup of the tastiest macaroni salad as well and a pickle spear. I typically like to order an extra 1/4 pound of macaroni salad on the side as well. It typically it takes about 15-20 minutes for my order to be ready, so definitely call in advance if you are in a rush or just don't feel like waiting. There are some tables and chairs inside as well if you are looking to dine in. I would love to try something new off of their menu, but the American sandwich never disappoints. How could I change my order when it's already so satisfying?! If I could change one thing; however, it is the roast beef. I prefer a nice pink roast beef whereas the roast beef on this sandwich tends to be more so on the well done side. In short, if you're looking for a yummy lunch/beach sandwich, this is most certainly the place for you! read more

I feel like a broken record reviewing this so high along with all the others but their sandwiches really are exceptional. We had a meatball sub that was amazing and the American which was perfect - particularly the amount of horseradish. We also had a sandwich with prosciutto and mozzarella that I can recall the name of but it too was great. The Mac and cheese is icing on the cake! read more

I have been going to Neil's for a while now and I keep going back simply because their food is amazing and the workers are great.

They get five stars for their macaroni salad alone. I wish I had brought a cooler with me so I could have brought some back home! They have a lot of set sandwiches listed on the board, and I had read some of the reviews beforehand, but I just went with what I was feeling when I was there: turkey, spinach, mozz, and roasted peppers. Everything tasted fresh, and the bread was pretty excellent as well. It wasn't too soft, but not too hard either (I could have done with a little bit more bite, but my teeth would have paid the price later), and it comes with a tiny 1/4 lb serving of their macaroni salad, which is the bomb. It is light on the mayo, has bits of carrots and celery, and isn't mushy. I don't know if they make their own pickles, but I don't care, because they serve their sandwiches with a giant quarter spear! It's relatively cheap - my half sandwich and peach Snapple was $11? If you want cheaper, you'll get cheaper, and you know what I mean. I will be back every time I am in Long Branch... and with a cooler. Oh, and Risky Business was on their television when I sat down to eat. Awesome. read more

I took Sue on a bit of a nostalgic trip to the Jersey shore. On the west coast where we live now we go to the coast. Growing up in NJ we went down the shore. This was a down the shore trip. We made our way from points south and found ourselves in Long Branch around lunchtime. A Yelp search took us to Neil's Kitchen. Sue wanted to go to an Italian deli. This was the closest I was able to do on this trip. We each got a sandwich and drink. I opted for Neil's Favorite ($7.50 for a small which was a good size). Prosciutto, fresh mozzarella and roasted red peppers topped with balsamic and oil. If I see this sandwich on a menu I usually go for it. It is a very simple sandwich, but still one of my favorites. The version here was good. Had plenty of meat and cheese and the roll kept up throughout the eating part of the meal. read more
