Like it's nearby neighbor Toasted Cafe I must have passed this place hundreds of times without paying attention. Thankfully I have great Yelp friends who like to share their good finds. Hence I found myself and a weekday afternoon meeting up with some friends to try some of the offerings of the New Jersey Deli 2. We ended up sharing a mixture of their pastries, sandwiches, and empanadas. I noticed that a lot of their pastries have caramel in them. My favorite was a cake covered in meringue that was yellow sponge on the inside with caramel, cream and peaches. We also had a caramel, cake, and some of the cookies. The beef empanadas were so good I had to get some to go. Empanada flavors come in beef, chicken, ham and cheese, spinach, cheese, cheese and onion, and fish. .Once you make your selection they fry it up for you. The coffee was amazing. It was a lot better than what you get in a coffee shop chain. A lot of care was given to fresh brewing it and topping it with a thick layer of foamy milk. My fancy coffee and a chocolate croissant was only $2.95. Later on I paid for four empandas and the meringue cake and it was only $12.00. They offer both inside and outside seating. I thought the prices are inexpensive for the quality of the food. My friend said lunch is even better so I will have to come back for that. Great food and great company turned an ordinary week day afternoon into a delight. read more

I love going here for a breakfast sandwich or a pan con bistec. It's absolutely delicious!

Sunday funday I'd say! What a pleasant surprise this was when we first stepped into this quaint little Cafeteria-Panadera-Deli/Latin Bakery and Sandwich shop. This is the busiest looking 6 table inside and several table outside joint you can imagine. The staff is very polite and helpful which is a big plus and has a very definite Latin flair to it. The menu is extensive with Breakfast and Lunch specials along with an array of sandwiches American and Latin. We ordered the Chivito Original, Bistec special and a Chicken Milanesa Special. We also ordered the Cafe con Leche, Cold Chocolate and a Diet Coke. All our meals were DEELISH!! That was a very filling lunch and extremely reasonable as our entire meal was only $ 33 WITH tax!! (See the attached Menu with pricing in my photos) YELPERS I'd encourage you to try out this place or get a take out from here and I can assure you that you won't be disappointed!! We will Definitely be back! read more

The place was empty and the staff seemed annoyed that I was even there. The place had a weird moldy smell to it and there were unclean tables where people obviously ate and left but the tables weren't cleaned off. I walked up and asked if I should seat myself and one of the girls handed me a menu and said yes. I sat down at one of the tables and waited for someone to take my order. After a while I got up because the 3 staff members there were having a long conversation laughing and standing around behind the counter. I saw a sandwich that I liked which was ham, cheese, tomato's, with mozzarella cheese melted on top. When I asked if I could get the sandwich with the tomato in it the sandwich the guy at the counter said the food was prepared according to what was on the menu. I just left. I went down the same shopping center to another breakfast place, which was full. As soon as I walked in one of ladies told me to sit wherever I wanted. The moment I sat down the lady was taking my drink order and a short while later she was taking my food order. She even checked on me 2 times and refilled my coffee with a smile on her face. I learned a few things when I went to college for business and that is in order for a restaurant to be successful they have to serve good food, have a nice ambience, and have enthusiastic staff that look like they really want to be there. I guess I can't hold the owners responsible given that in today's world nobody really wants to work they just want more money. Another thing I learned in business school was that more money does not guarantee you better performance. If this place keeps going down this route. I don't think they're gonna be around for much longer. read more

This was such a fun experience... meeting some fellow yelp friends for an afternoon of coffee and snacks. We got there at three pm and they closed at 4 -- so of course, we moved the conversation to their outside tables. Meanwhile inside, I chose a quince cookie only cause I'd never had one before. It was okay. My favorite was my second choice -- a coconut pastry. Perfectly light and airy layers. We got to taste a bunch of other choices -- as my friends were more than willing to share. The bakery shelves are full of all sorts of delectables and I understand they change frequently. In addition, they offer lunch and breakfast options. I was gifted a beef empanada (they have fish, chicken, cheese, etc. options too) which I had later at home as part of my dinner and it was wonderful when reheated in my toaster oven. The other savory sandwich that I really liked was their "miga". The one I tried was white bread with the crusts cut off and filled with ham and cheese. Think a thin, flattened, tea sandwich. I definitely would have that again. My friends really enjoyed their coffees. I'm a decaf person, so I felt it would be sacrilege even to ask.. but both the expresso and the cappuccino looked amazing and smelled wonderful! I do love the aroma of coffee, don't you? Prices are quite reasonable. It's a small cozy, restaurant. You might need to be adventurous-- just point and try something if you don't understand the translations. And bring your sweet tooth. read more

For starters: New Jersey Deli 2, like the original New Jersey Deli & Grocery in Oakland Park, has nothing to do with New Jersey beyond it being the first home of the owner's relocation from Uruguay to the U.S.A. So, if you're expecting "Jersey" affectations -- Salt water taffy, pork roll on burger buns, big haired waitresses or the Boss' "Born to Run" on the sound system -- sorry you'll be disappointed. However, whether you're a Jersey fan or not, I highly recommend a visit to NJD2. Because the service is sweet, the prices are low, and food is very delicious. Unlike its parent location, there's no "grocery" here, only deli and restaurant food offerings. While the casual food highlights Uruguayan -- a new cuisine for me -- it's also incorporating Cuban and other Latin American countries' cuisines. My first impression was a drive-by and a stop to look at the exterior. In the window on the left side, a woman was meticulously making little white bread sandwiches with crusts cut off -- "miga" sandwiches. A little google research showed them to be a Uruguay standard, like most of their cuisine a result of European infusion. It's a dainty sandwich generally served as an afternoon nosh -- like, the royal queen could stop by for tea and be totally happy with these. I'll be back for them in the future. But for TODAY, it was lunchtime, I was hungry, and the sandwich one customer was eating looked amazing. Scanning the menu quickly, opted to mimic him and got the P9, the "Chivito Original" -- steak, ham, cheese, egg, bacon, tomato and lettuce on Cuban bread, a side of fries included. Upon delivery, I was digging the plating, as casual as it was in its paper-lined plastic basket -- the sandwich speared with olived toothpicks; the fries golden, and both flanked by tubs of catsup and mayo. Upon eating, I was even more impressed. The fries were simple but done perfectly. And the sandwich: each component was nicely done, the meat tender and juicy, the bread toasted just right, the cheese nicely melted, the lettuce and tomato the ideal crisp/fresh counterpoint. It was a simple sandwich with a lot of add-ins, but done simply well. And, filling enough where half was taken home to be eaten for dinner. Beyond the great lunch, and the glimpse of the miga sandwich new to me -- NJD2 boasts an impressive display of baked goods; so many I'd suggest they add "bakery" to their name. Empanadas, flan, pasteles, cookies, etc. With my later 1:30 pm arrival, many were sold out or unavailable. But what was there still looked amazing. Hullo 3pm espresso and sweet thing! Said it before, sayin' it again -- one of the best things about moving to South Florida is the multi-cultural exposure to new food, new drinks, new art, and new ways of experiencing and enjoying life. And, for me, despite its misleading name, New Jersey Deli 2 is a wonderful addition to that experience. It's not fancy and doesn't try to be, and wears its casual crown exceedingly well. Great food, service and prices, it's an easy 5 stars. And oh yeah, it does also serve cold subs -- which, come to think about it, is about as Jersey as it gets. :) read more

This place is delicious. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the establishment is clean. It's a place to grab a quick bite or to sit and chat. I ordered a Cuban with fries, stuffed potato and some pastries. The Cuban was excellent, the pork had a great flavor. The bread was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside - just right. Fries were okay, sort of bland - not bad, just not great. The stuffed potato was amazing. The food was out quickly, too. Dessert was great -some shortbread caramel chocolate dipped cookies that were not too sweet, very crumbly and delicious. A cortado to finish it off and I now have a regular deli right down the street! read more
