Excellent neighborhood Italian deli in Nutley. Feels like you're stepping back in time. Great food and neighborhood friendly service. Hot and cold sandwiches, hot meals or cold ones you can reheat. Italian cold cuts and salads. Plenty of drinks, sweets, and chips for lunch time. They also cater which looks very good as well. Nutley specializes in Italian Deli's and this is a good one. They have newspapers too which isn't a guarantee anymore. If you need lunch or a pre made or hot meal this is a great place. read more

Petracco & Sons - Sandwiches Near Me - Nutley, New Jersey

On my rare day off, we went on the hunt for a new Italian sandwich joint. Today brought us to Nutley, NJ. Plenty of parking on the side street. Old school Italian Deli, which I totally love. They got everything from your traditionally Italian cold cut sammich to the Hoboken (roast beef, mutz and gravy). Service was pretty swift. We got 3 sandwiches. My wife and myself got a chicken based sandwich and the kid got a meatball parm. If I didn't see it for myself, I would've never known, but it threw me back. They warm the chicken up in a microwave. I'm not sure why when the meatballs they brought in the back to the ovens to make my son's sandwich. I just found that very odd. I got the chicken cutlet, with provolone and broccoli rabe. Sandwich was excellent. I was really in the mood for crunchy semolina bread, but this was still very good. My son loved the meatball sammich. So all in all, a very solid spot. You can dine in or take home. (We brought it home). read more

Petraccos is quickly becoming a go-to for me in town. I've tried their eggplant rolatini which was made fresh and deliciously. It came with bread and a nice sized salad. It was great, good sauce and a generous portion. Their sandwiches are fantastic too. Bread is really good and they stock pile the ingredients. I got a turkey and provolone with everything and on it and it was delicious. Also a great portion. Staff is friendly and helpful and I'll definitely be back to try more menu items. read more

The place has the best Hoboken sandwich!! Everything I ever ordered was delicious. Also, it's stocked with a lot of options for household items. read more

Great experience- contact free delivery. Their website basically is only a list of sandwiches, panini etc. If you've ever been here you know they're way more than that. Very accommodating when I called. Ordered aMonster of a Sloppy Joe, Cheese Steak, Chicken Fingers( homemade and spectacular) and Disco Fries. Everything was great! In addition I got some fried chicken cutlets, broccoli rabe, fresh eggs and a few tomatoes! That's going to keep us well fed for a few days. Great place in tough times! read more

Petracco & Sons - Monster Roast Beef Sloppy Joe - Sandwiches Near Me - Nutley, New Jersey

I'll give this a really solid 4 stars. The size of the sandwiches are huge at a reasonable price with great meat portions. I've been here twice, so as a result of those two trips was able to try three separate sandwiches and all three were really good. I had one of their specialty Italian subs the first time (I don't know which sandwich because my sister-in-law ordered it for me) and it was good but just a bit dry. The second time was better because I made my own. I got the spicy sopressatta, fresh mozzarella, LTO, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt & pepper and balsamic glaze. Think I would do without the balsamic glaze and do oil and vinegar next time but still good. On the plus side the person answering the phone was friendly. Also as a side note my relative had the turkey sandwich with LTO, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper which I really liked when I tried it. I think this is a great value for the price for $9.95 for a stuffed one foot sandwich, but I can't give it 5 stars though because there is something lacking for it to be a destination deli spot you would travel a good distance for but since my brother is moving to Nutley soon so will be a good local joint I would hit up again when in town over and over. You're welcome Yelp and remember be nice to each other. If this helped hit the like button. read more

Great deli! Sandwiches are amazing the HOBOKEN is like no other! Just an all around great deli!

I can only comment on the sub I tried. The menu did have a lot of options ranging from pizza to wraps to subs. I had a ham and cheese sub with roasted peppers and oil and vinegar. When I picked it up, I was immediately surprised by how heavy the sub was. I decided to weigh it and it was approximately a pound, a hearty portion! The sub itself was solid. It was packed with ham. There could have been a little more cheese, but not a big deal. The roasted peppers added a nice touch while the bread was flaky. Will I go back? Easily. read more

Great sandwiches. The bread is key here. Meats are nice and imported. Also their chicken/veal cutlets are amazing. I recommend the lemon chicken and chicken cutlet sandwich! The side salads are the only reason I'm giving it a 3 vs 5. I went around 1130 and their pasta salads looked dried out.. read more

What a great find! I was coming just to grab a sandwich, but I could have filled up my entire kitchen with all of the great delicacies they have. From the Italian meats, vegetables, and coffee creamer to made to order sandwiches and entrees, this place has it all. It's basically a mini market. I ordered a Half Chicken Franchise sub and their half size is huge 12", a full at a giant 24". The lemon brought out the flavor of the chicken and the bread was perfect. They also have an exotic fish tank. Nice added touch! Friendly staff and quick service. I highly recommend! read more

Wanted to love this place. Typical Italian deli. Big sandwiches at decent prices. I had a breaded chicken w fresh motz and broccoli Rabe. The chicken was thin which I like but in some instances meatless and pure bread crumb. It was also a little tough. I ended up eating half, taking half home and throwing it out. They cad cavetelli and broccoli for $7 which was a steak. It was bland and boring with minimal broccoli. Was hoping it would be a once a week lunch spot but have no desire to return read more

What a great deli that has been around for a long time. They make you feel like family as soon as you walk in. Everyone knows everyone and they make the food fast and fresh If looking for a great deli you found it read more

Absolutely loved this place! We ordered a lot of food and trays. The staff was kind and helpful. They covered the car with tarp, in case of spills, and loaded up the car for me. My favorite is the broccoli rabe. Highly recommend. read more

what a gem; i love the sandwich's here! i'd eat there every day if my cardiologist allowed it. amazing everything all around.

Excellent sandwich spot. This place is on par with some of the really good Italian delis in Hoboken and NYC. I've had the cheesesteak, chicken with mozz and red peppers, and a few others. Their price is very fair also, approx $10 for a 12 inch hero - can't beat that! read more

Always great sandwiches and great delivery . Fast and convinient. Greet in my hometown .

Been back recently and feel food level has dropped off a bit. Not as good as I remembered it being... However, that's not the reason for the big drop in stars. I was standing towards the back where you have a clear view of the kitchen, when I noticed the guy in the back using the same rag to clean all the surfaces (prep table, stove top, griddle) to dry off knives and other cooking utensils. Cleanliness and proper training should be a top priority to any place that serves / provides food to customers. Seeing this made me feel sick to my stomach. read more

Aweful! Ordered a prosciutto/mozz/roaster peppers with balsamic. Had 3 bites, horrible. Even smelt funky. My fault I guess, should've walked out when I saw the prosciutto was Thurman's. Staff, was unbelievably rude and unfriendly. Cashier wasn't polite at all and when I tried ordering from the hot bar, I wasn't acknowledged for a good 5 minutes. 2 stars only b/c the ribs were decent. Never again read more

There is nothing better than a great corner deli sandwich. I had a craving for a good sandwich and was lucky enough to find Petracco's. This place more than exceeded my expectations. I had "the Vincent" sandwich which is chicken cutlet, broccoli rabe, long hots, and provolone. I always said you can judge a good deli by their chicken cutlet sandwich, and this is definitely top notch. The chicken cutlet is nice and thin like it should be, the long hits give a nice kick, and this all followed up by some nice sharp provolone flavor. read more

Wasn't very impressed. If you put this place in Ohio or Wyoming I'm sure it would be a best of breed, but here in Jersey...Not so much!

Best breakfast sandwiches I've had. the Hoboken is a thing of beauty too!!! so good!!!!!!!!

I wanted to thank Alphonse and the entire team at Petracco's for making a great event even better. Their catering is the best. The quality is incomparable. They have the best tasting, freshest food at the most reasonable prices. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. Al treats everyone as family. Ordering was easy, delivery was on time, setup and presentation was spectacular. As far as the quantity of food let's just say I hope you like leftovers as much as I do, even after the post party party. I recommend Petracco's to anyone having an event. Salute and Buon appetito!!! read more

I moved to Maine after many years of adoring Petracco's sandwiches. The Best! Anyone I have served them to has absolutely raved about them. Anytime I visit anywhere in NJ or if a NJ friend is coming up - Petracco sandwiches. The rest of their food is great too! You can't go wrong @ Petracco's! read more

I've been coming here for years, the food is really good! I don't know what has changed over the past 1-1 1/2 years, but the food has gotten even better! Sometimes I only get a taylor ham, egg, and cheese sandwich, or one of their subs like the Spring Garden. Other times my mom will stop there on her way home from work and pick us up some of their hot foods like penne vodka, or chicken francese. Everything is just delicious. The store looks bright and open after all of the remodeling over the years. You can almost always see some locals dining in there, just enjoying good food and good company. I highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Very nice big space with a ton of potential Even this I think this deli makes plenty of money It's disgusting how the food is handle in here Everything taste plain and looks like has been put together in hurry . Couple of young punks run this shop and you can tell there no one around that gives a shit . Waited half an hour on average the 4 times I've been here . The second time I found a dog hair in my egg . I wish I could give them negatives stars read more

Every time I go there I am never disappointed! Ordered a sloppy joe today and it was heaping with meat and cheese and absolutely delicious!

I've been coming to petraccos a lot lately. They make some awesome sandwiches, but then again most places in Nutley do, so what makes them 5 stars? Their sandwiches are HUGE and priced well for what you get. I was very surprised to see so few and mostly negative reviews for this place on Yelp. I really can't find one thing wrong with this deli. They have high quality cold cuts, use Zinnacola bread, and have a fees seats to eat at. PERFECT To be honest, this deli is on the same level as Fiores in Hoboken with the exception that Petraccos uses better bread, and that's a FACT. read more

Had to order some subs here for Easter. Probably will not be ordering here again because staff is so rude. I want to support local businesses but not when the staff are rude. read more

Having lived in Nutley for a number of years I have tried this deli multiple times. I've given them enough chances. It is up there with one of the worst sandwiches you can get in town. The prosciutto was so dry it should've been in the garbage. I will never go back there again. Multiple other deli's in town are so much better!!! read more

Fantastic as always! Great food, great staff, and a great place to get a "hometown" feel.

Banging sandwiches! Never disappoints. Good quality ingredients and they're open all day!

Last time I go here. Every time I've gotten my cold cuts they weigh every one heavy. I ask for a 1/2 lb I get .70,.58,.60. Never anything under. Sent my husband today and did the math for all their overages. It was over $10 more than it should have been. Ridiculous. Sad because it's very close and convenient. I'll be finding another deli to frequent now read more

Words can't explain how covienient & great this establishment is...everything is absolutely fantastic right down to the prices!!!you couldn't ask for a nicer bunch of people...but they need a bigger fish tank!!! read more
