It moved into the Miss America joint. Same awesome sandwiches and salads. They really cleaned up the spot, you wouldn't even recognize the dining area. I hope this place does well in my neighborhood. Yuppies and JC OGs enjoying deelish eats. Tony, your legacy is safe. RIP read more

It's in Italian deli mostly specializing in sandwiches,salads, they do have a steam table with different daily options, but the menu is very small regarding that. The service is friendly and casual ambience. The place is spacious. There's seating areas and there's a lot of parking spots and huge indoor seating. read more

Salumeria Ercolano - Chicken Cutlet with fresh mozzarella - Italian Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

The new location is very convenient for students of the college and the local residents. The bathrooms are spotless and beautifully renovated, the seating is ample and parking is plentiful. My mom had the roast beef sandwich and loved it and I had the Tonnelle Ave which was juicy grilled chicken, fresh mozzarella, basil, tomato, sun dried tomatoes and a balsamic glaze on the most amazing bread. I had it panini style so it was so melty and crispy! Went back to split a roast beef sandwich and discussed catering a birthday party for us. Natale was straightforward, friendly and accommodating. Definitely would highly recommend this establishment! read more

Had to try this new spot in my childhood neighborhood. Love the sandwiches! One sandwich is big enough for a couple of people. Glad they kept Miss America's original interior. Will be back! read more

If the new location opened this year why would you post 10 year old pictures of food and menus? Makes no sense. Come on man let's get somebody to update this stuff. It isn't hard. You got a camera in every phone. Specials the same each day of the week so post 7 pictures. Pretty simple. I eat there often. The food is great. One complaint .... always green beans !!! read more

Any other old-timers out there remember how revolutionary the fax machine was when it was first introduced? With that continuous roll of thermal paper (and the ink would eventually fade on the fax you'd received)? Now they're obsolete. Relics from yesteryear that my own kids wouldn't even have a clue about. The only reason I know about this salumeria? They (still) fax their daily specials to our office and it always looks pretty darn enticing. Two visits spaced a few years apart and... it's a decent deli, but for such a massive space it sure feels like they don't have enough. On my most recent visit I'd asked for hot sausage and they seemed almost confused and pushed soppressata instead. (Maybe that's my fault that I'm coming too early before they have a chance to fill up the cases?) There's a big "Tavola Calda" for the hot (prepared) meals/specials (that they hype up via their daily faxes). People behind the counter are friendly. Parking lot in the back. Decent pricing. In the center there's plenty of tables (I'm not sure if it's technically a 'restaurant' as well?). On my initial visit the lot across the street was completely empty/barren/abandoned. My most recent visit there's the foundation and frame to a massive 500-capacity building. (The next time I'll make my way here - that new complex will surely be filled to the brim with tenants.) And yes... when you're paying at the counter look to the right and you'll see their most lovely deluxe fax machine standing at the ready to get the word out! read more

Quality food great tasting and they never disappoint We get lunch here a few times a week and cater and office event from them. read more

Daily specials are consistently good quality. The soup is like grandma made! The prices are reasonable for the size portions you get! Staff is friendly & accommodating. Early hours only, they close in the afternoon. A huge variety of (charmingly named for local streets) sandwiches on excellent Italian bread. They also offer delicious cannolis in 2 sizes. Plus they offer an array of Italian imports for purchase. A small parking lot is available in the midst of the big construction project. It's a quick turnover so there's always a few spots available. You can dine in the large space in comfort as well as take out. read more

My coworker has rave about this restaurant and deli on more than one occasion and even brought me a sandwich from here, it was delicious. We decided to order lunch as a group yesterday and I placed the order and did pick up. Being a New Yorker, I love a good Italian deli and this one did not disappoint! the decor makes you feel like you're somewhere in Brooklyn. The brick walls, the warm service, the Italian/ Brooklyn accents of the wonderful women at the counter. The courteous service, all give credit to my coworkers high praise of this place. The sandwiches were delicious. I ordered the #13 Van Winkle: Pastrami, Swiss Cheese, Sauerkraut & Dijon Mustard panini, so good! One coworker had the #7 Bergen: Ham, Salami, Provolone, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Onions & Balsamic Vinaigrette. And the other had the #9 Pulaski: Chicken Cutlet, Swiss, lettuce, Tomatoes & Chipotle Mayo. If you are familiar with Jersey City, yes, all the sandwiches are named after Jersey City streets. How cool is that! read more

This place is amazing. My office orders from here at least once a week now. Super friendly & professional people working there & on the phone. Prices are great for the quality & portions ( = Value) Full line of cold cuts \ deli meat and side orders. Packed Italian heroes, perfectly pressed panini, both using the best bread. Very good salads too. But check out the Specials! What Italian deli has creative items like this (AND for $16 or less!) --Flounder with fig & raisin stuffing in a mango habanaro sauce with veggies and a side. Great dish! Nice portion Just a tinge of heat balanced by all the sweet ingredients. --Sweet potato gnocchi (pasta) with shiitake mushrooms and a light sherry wine cream sauce. And if you think you know what an Italian Jersey "Sangwich" is..take a look at the picture. --The Broadway- Capicola, Prosciutto, Soppressata, Provolone, Roasted Red Peppers & Balsamic Vinaigrette ( Mama Mia!) And don't forget to grab a cannoli too for dessert! Ciao! read more

Excellent food, staff and atmosphere. Very reasonable prices. High quality ingredients. Best sandwiches in Jersey City!

I recently ordered a 2 foot hero for my birthday. The price was pretty steep, cost me about $45. However, the Newark and the Westside were phenomenal sandwiches. The bread is top quality bread and kept the meat and veggies together. The pesto has so much flavor. The mozz ? Smooth! Customer service was great, i ordered via phone. I arrived on thr date and time to pick up and the hero was wrapped beautifully and waiting for me. They even gave me utensils and tongs for people to use. I would order from them again. read more

One of the best vegan sandwiches I've had and it was literally just veggies and bread. BUT lemme tell youuuuu, their bread is perfectly crispy yet soft, and their grilled veggies are flavorful, perfectly cooked with a bite. This place is SO unassuming. You walk in and immediately you're transported to Italy. This is definitely a solid neighborhood spot and one of my favorite sandwich spots. They also have a hot bar with food if you're looking for a hot meal. It isn't cheap but you get what you pay for AND one sandwich is pretty much two meals in one. read more

A hidden hem in Jersey City (close to journal square PATH)! I recommend this place to everyone. They have parking, which that alone makes me love them. Plenty of seating inside and a couple tables outside. It's always pretty busy but it never takes long to get your food. The employees are so personable and make you feel like you've been going there forever. The sandwiches are huge (I save half for later). the bread is amazing.. never had a disappointing thing here. If they have the mini lobster tail pastries at the counter, treat yourself and grab a couple! read more

This is my favorite Italian Deli in JC. The different variety of food everyday gives you so many options. Natale ventured into making fresh mozzarella.... it is the absolute best!! He has perfected it. You really need to try it if you haven't already. We get one every week to eat at home. I have tried numerous dishes, soups and sandwiches ( pork loin with broccoli rabe and provolone and the "Vinny" fried chicken cutlet with mozzarella and long hots!! My 2 favorites ) They are very accommodating and will make changes if they have the ingredients. The service is excellent and all the workers are very friendly. We have had small parties here and also have them cater our office Christmas party. Never any complaints. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend!!! Prices are right and you feel welcomed. read more

This is a must go to in Jersey City for lunch. They have a deli side making excellent sandwiches, just the bread alone is worth the trip, highly quality and almost big enough for one sandwich to feed two and they have a hot entree section with different choices each day and all served with one of the sides. There is a parking lot in the back. The inside not fancy but great for gathering. Definitely try this place if you are in the area. read more

This place has one of the best sandwiches in the area. What makes a great sandwich you ask? Bread is soft, but not too soft. This is one of the most important things in a sandwich. Meat is tender, and the veggies are fresh. This is hard to mess up. Then they add right amount of condiments. Horray to Salumeria. Long live this deli! read more

This place is definitely a gem.. they catered my daughter's communion party and everything was amazing! My guests couldn't stop raving about the food! read more

This place is a hidden gem! If you're looking for a delicious deli sandwich...this is the place to go to! Came here for lunch the other day and thoroughly enjoyed it! There's two places to order depending on what you want. There's a section for ordering sandwiches and then a section for ordering fresh Italian entrees. I had ordered a roast beef with fresh mozzarella sandwich on a roll. It was delicious! You can taste the freshness of all the ingredients in every bite. The roast beef and mozzarella are made fresh daily! They also have a variety on sandwiches on their menu with Jersey City based names. Definitely worth trying for my next visits!!! read more

I ate here several times on a trip back to New Jersey and this place nestled next to the old Puccini's (formerly Villa Capri). The place is absolutely spotless and the cases with prepared salads and cold cuts are truly immaculate. They seem to have a steady and loyal following of cops, city employees and hard hat types who are regulars and the food for the price is really a great deal. I had the shrimp dish which was excellent as well as the soups and they have a large seating area. This place also services funeral luncheons and parties too what I could tell with nice space in the back. The food is excellent and the hot food is really well done. Sandwiches, salads and Italian specialties and delicacies. If you travel the Marion section of Jersey City, this place is walking distance from Mount Carmel Church and the old #23 elementary school. Highly recommend! read more

I think I just found the Italian deli of my dreams and shoot me now, it's walking distance from my home. It's location makes it more amazing. It's at the tip of West Side Ave, a dead end street after Broadway, next to the PATH tracks. There it lays like a little piece of deli heaven. When you enter, the space is from a Soprano's episode. High ceilings, spacious areas to sit. Manager's office on the left. Pick up a menu and specials on the right hand area. Sandwiches and panini named after local streets. Choosing is the hardest part. On this cold morning, I wanted a hot sandwich but they didn't have bread. I ordered the medium Tonnele. Fresh ingredients, tender bread, cheese stinky (good thing), just enough mayo. It's worth more than $8. Service was great. I beg you to visit this place whenever you are in the area. read more

Amazing food. Friendly people working there. It is my go to place for Italian food at lunch time.

Another good place to order. I had van winkle sandwich medium size with half corned beef and half pastrami with cheese sauerkraut and dijon mustard. It was just right size with plenty of ingredients. Bread was nicely toasted as well. I would definitely order again. Another person ordered large grilled chicken salad, it look good also. Next time I might order that. We ordered around 11:00 came by 12:30. Food was still warm so. I guess its good. read more

Great friendly service. Delicious food. Relaxed atmosphere. And parking too! We enjoy it so much, we have a weekly date.

Excellent authentic Italian deli in Jersey City! As soon as you walk inside, you realize this isn't just any old deli. They've done a great job with the ambiance of this place which let's you feel like you've escaped JC and walked into an Italian Marketplace. (Pics below) There is ample open seating. The place opens early enough for brunch and lunch. They accept credit cards. There is free parking out front on the dead end street and in the adjoining Puccini's lot. The food is excellent. We had 2 of their local inspired sandwiches. We will definitely return to try more in the near future. Sandwiches are named for classic sections of Jersey City--- "The WestSide, JFK, Bergen, Tonnele, Montgomery, Grove, Danforth, Broadway" and so on. (See pic) read more

Wow. What a nice looking Italian deli. It's located on the dead end behind Puccini's restaurant. I remember hearing about this place opening but never came by to try it. I went in today and felt like a regular. Everyone was very friendly. The place looks like it's owned by the Puccini restaurant people, the guy behind the counter had a Puccini chef jacket on....kind of gave it away. It is a large space with a lot of tables for eat-in. It looks as if they serve liquor, or at least beer and wine. They had hot specials and a full deli. They also had an assortment of olives and prepared items. I had the grilled sausage with broccoli Rabe and pasta with peas on the side. It came with a piece of Italian bread. I also bought a soda. Total= 9.75. A little pricier then some delis, but the quality factor was high. Definitely want to go back for more when I am back in the area. read more
