These days you can't open your front door and take a deep breath without it costing you more than $11. Look at the size of this sandwich! I don't know how they do it, but this place is absolutely recommended. Talk about bang for your buck, and GOOD! Please go and enjoy.

Pete's has been serving up the neighborhood for a very long time…read more We used to go at lunch in HS and get dollar subs. They were good sized sandwiches geared to us broke kids. It was a blessing at the time. My go to was and still is, cajun turkey, yellow American, lettuce, tomato, mayo on a round Portuguese roll. They also make incredible pepperoni bread, potato salad, chicken cutlets and a bunch of other goodies. I saw they had brownies, donuts, and crumb cake last time I was in.

Full hero for$24+tax tip (inflation and tariffs suck), sliced cold then warmed pastrami over cheese in hero. Not what I was expecting, will go to a real pastrami place next time. Otherwise a standard hero place, looked like they had decent hero/sandwich choices. Maybe I got the wrong sandwich, but it was just ok.

I get 3 meals out of it and i buy it when my friends come over and there's never scraps for my dogs. I've tried the meatball parm and it's pretty good. Meatballs are very iffy and you take a chance ordering them anywhere as few places make them good. I'll keep trying new things and check back. My only complaint is the woman at the counter acts like you're bothering her if you order. Otherwise this place is great.

Sadly, they are selling the business, but I will recommend trying it before they do. I'm honestly scared. It's gonna turn into something else.. I hope whoever decides to buy this business keeps it the same. It's right at the end of KEARNY and such a welcoming place. The owners are always kind to my kiddos and very family friendly. It has an old school vibe, but it is perfectly clean! I highly recommend you give this place a try you won't be disappointed I promise.

Onward and upwards... it's now (almost) 2024 and while the the shelves are a bit more sparse than I recall and they got rid of their lottery machine (which seemed to bring in a lot of old-timers) - what I'm here for is their sandwiches. Specifically their #1 Italian. And I'm happy to report: they're still the best around. (And it tasted even better after a recent not-so-good visit to a Jersey Mike's in my hometown.) Besides their incredible subs you'll find the usuals (chips, soda, ice cream) and a few random items (aspirin, Chapstick). Cool crew behind the counter. Good pricing for such a quality product. Trying to find parking is still a nightmare. 'Enjoy every sandwich.' -- Warren Zevon (No truer words were ever spoken.)

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.

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).
