    Hot Pastrami Sandwich
    Ken B.

    This place was a throwback for me as I was a former deli counter worker. Busy place and fast service. Everybody pitched in to pull a larger order of takeout on their delicious looking food. Loved getting the new pickles. That's the mark of a pIace I want to eat at.

    Located in a strip center, this quaint little restaurant welcomes you with a warm greeting from the ladies behind the counter as soon as you walk in. You can choose to dine in or, like us, opt for takeout. There were four of us ordering, and the four guys working the counter were incredibly efficient--everyone jumped in to help, so we had our order ready in no time. Once they prepare your food, it's placed in a basket and handed to the ladies at the register, where you're conveniently tempted by their homemade desserts right next to the counter--hard to resist a little impulse buy . We took home corned beef, egg salad, and salami sandwiches, along with a sweet potato knish, a sweet noodle kugel, rugelach, and a slice of 7-layer cake. The corned beef was tender and full of flavor, and the egg salad had nice-sized chunks of egg with just the right amount of mayo. It's also great that it's kosher-style, so you can still enjoy cheese on your sandwich! The knish was huge and packed with delicious sweet potato filling, and the kugel tasted just like my grandma's. The cake and cookies were the perfect sweet finish. So excited to have found a kosher-style deli that's even better than some in NYC!

    It was my first time there, and I have no intention of going back. The way they speak to the younger employees is revolting. Everyone in there is a senior citizen. The man, who wears glasses, has white hair and a beard, is extremely disrespectful to one of the guys, who's probably in his 20s, behind the deli. I spoke with him and said that he really shouldn't be screaming like that in front of customers and his employees; he was also rude towards me. I will not be going back there.

    The people that worked there were rude and the food wasn't all that great. The corn beef was fatty.

    Omg I'm in love with the @countrystore454 . They are notorious for breakfast and lunch. The food…read morewas amazing no one spoke till the last bite. I had the worlds best Chicken Gyro . Made with real juicy chicken no mystery meat, fresh veggies, and tzatziki sauce so good I thought I was in Greece . The wife had a classic cheesesteak you know I had to take a bite amazing to say the least. My mother in law had a Turkey club with crispy bacon non of that chewy stuff, it was packed with over 3 lb of the best @boarshead_official turkey. You can tell they take pride in fresh quality ingredients. My kids are super picky eaters and they gave 2 thumbs up as they devoured tenders and crinkle fries.The store is so nostalgic with old school items like Mary Janes made with real molasses and peanut butter, my favorite was a refreshing apple soda. The staff was fast and very friendly. This place is a true hidden gem literally the bellybutton of NJ surrounded by beautiful farms and trees very picturesque. Saddle up and take a ride with the family you won't be disappointed. . . . @countrystore454 . . . 454 NJ-33 , millstone NJ

It all starts with the roll! Perfectly baked, crispy on the outside and perfect on the inside! If you are a fan of buttered rolls, you will not find better anywhere else! Even their butter is a perfectly sweetened, whipped butter salted just right! All of their breakfast sandwiches are without a doubt the best I've ever had! I always order a double egg, cheese, salt, pepper and ketchup on a roll. Of course they also have pork roll, bacon, sausage and everything else you could possibly put on a breakfast sandwich. They also make 5-star lunches! I have had both their tuna and chicken salad sandwiches. They really load it on and the flavor is wonderful! I want to make a point of mentioning that their prices are extremely fair and less than most. In addition their coffee is great too in case you're wondering. Please do not let looks deceive you! You need to go inside this place! There is additional parking around the back. You can even call ahead and place your order so it's ready when you get there. Once you go inside you'll be happy you did! Very highly recommended for breakfast and lunch!

    Phenomenal sandwiches !!!…read more The Steak & Cheese is my personal favorite. Also, the whole staff in the Deli makes you feel at home & welcomed. I drove from Providence, RI and when I am passing through Jersey. I always have to make a stop here at Taliercio's. I don't normally right reviews and I eat at many different great restaurants. Although, the way they took care of us, with either the food, feeding us extra stuff while we wait, or making sure we was good from the person making the sandwich to the cashier to the manager. Keep it up guys!

    My husband was dying to try this place after seeing the massive sandwiches on social media. The…read moreinside is a classic italian american deli. The ordering system in the store is a little unorganized, but par for the course with any good deli. You wait in a semi-organized group of people until a guy behind the counter calls next. Then you pay when your order is ready. We ordered a classic italian sub, a chicken vodka parm with broccoli raab, and a philly cheesesteak eggroll. On a relatively empty wednesday it took us about 20 minutes to place our order, and another 10-15 minutes until we paid and were out the door. This is not a quick pit stop place. The sandwiches are huge, but also pricey at ~$20-30 each for a half size. The cutlets on the chicken vodka parm were way too thick. Almost an inch thick! I prefer many thin cutlets. I don't even think they are sliced and pounded thin. The italian was decent but didn't blow us away. Eggroll was probably the best thing we tried. I don't think we'd go out of our way to come back.
