Stopped in to grab some subs, Great Service, great subs, all around a go to spot in new providence

Best quality in town... and all heart. After you try these sandwiches, you won't hesitate to saunter the meager half block from Subway (it's across the street) or Jersey Mike's (same side of the street). Thankful for such kind/accommodating hosts and subs that were fresh, delicious and gigantic. (When I say gigantic, I mean I ordered a full sub, and when it arrived, I thought I received TWO full subs. Each half measured in at 8-1/2 inches each.) The price... unbelievable. Sorry other sandwich guys, we have a new fav in New Providence. Also noticed wraps, great salads, and more listed on that menu board. Thank you Avenue Deli, for such a pleasant experience. First class. read more

Avenue Deli - Full sub, toasted (turkey, avocado, provolone). The 8-1/2 inch second half in the background! - Delis Near Me - New Providence, New Jersey

I stopped in the other day to grab a few sandwiches right at noon and they were very busy but I got my order of 3 oversize sandwiches in less than 10 minutes. They were fresh & delicious & plentiful. All 3 of us could only eat half AND the price was very reasonable! Excellent find - will definitely be back! read more

Very friendly staff Generous portions Sort of dark interior Seating less desirable Would go back read more

Avenue Deli has been our go-to for years for party platters or just random sandwiches for lunch. They can't be beat for fresh delicious options, reasonable prices and friendliness. Can't recommend more highly! read more

A friend bought me a tuna sloppy joe today. By far the best I've ever had. The proportions were perfect! Can't wait to try more items on the menu. read more

Greatest sandwich shop ever! Fair prices.Excellent service. Very nice people ! Thank you for serving us!

What a great sandwich deli in New Providence. Incredible value and very fresh. Really good selection of sandwiches, wraps and paninis made to order. The Dagwood sandwich was huge and truly delicious. Really friendly people and clearly popular with locals. But then again, if you had a place like this, why would you ever bother with a chain like Jimmy John's or Subway - this is so much better in every way. read more

Avenue Deli - Dagwood sandwich (Turkey, ham, Swiss cheese, joeslaw, and Russian dressing made on three tiers of rye) - Delis Near Me - New Providence, New Jersey

This place doesn't miss anytime we order from there. Nice people, quality food. Highly recommend.

Wow. One try and this became my favorite sub shop in New Jersey. Ham and turkey with asiago cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, oil and vinegar, pepper and oregano, hold the salt. HIT. THE. SPOT. This is why there are no better sandwiches than a Jersey sub in all of the United States. The service is kind and quick to boot! I will definitely be coming back here again and again. read more

Great little friendly sandwich shop. Love the sloppy joes but the subs are also great to share.It gets busy but the line moves fast.

One of the best delis anywhere, and I know having grown up in NY and living in NJ for 30 years. The sandwiches are always well made and with quality bread and meats. The Tony's chicken is amazing, too! I think their sloppy Joes are better the Millburn Deli and Hilltop. Plus, their service is outstanding. I like to buy from places that care about their customers. Finally, their prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality. I had them prepare food for a party and everyone was asking me for the name of the caterer! AVENUE DELI. read more

I had the turkey club. Large and excellent value for the money- currently 11/17/22 price only $8. I have paid $15 and got less. Definitely recommend! read more

Pretty good deli, though their sloppy joes would benefit from thinner rye. Staff personable, plenty of parking in the rear. I like their salads. Their slogan used to be 'You can't beat our meat', which always gave me a chuckle! read more

Amazing sandwiches made with great care, they come at an unbeatable price and portion size.

I have been going to this deli for years and it has Never let me down as far as quality of their food and the friendly service. If you're thinking of trying this deli, just go- you will be glad you did. Thank you Avenue Deli, and happy holidays read more

I have been a customer of Avenue Deli for years. I now walk in and they know I will order a New Providence Special... or two! Very generous in their portions, smiling and greeting their customers, the owners and crew at the Avenue are the best. Sneak in the back door entrance and enjoy their pleasant environment and delicious sandwiches or salads! read more

Avenue Deli gets all my love. I used to come here almost every day 7 years ago when I worked in town. Always got the chicken salad sandwich on wheat, lettuce, tomato, salt + pepper. Then switched jobs, then moved to California, and recently made it back to this side of Jersey where, surprise, things taste the EXACT SAME! Quality ingredients, everything is super fresh and delicious, amazing assortment of chips and drinks. You know Jersey girls love their options! They're easily my favorite deli in Jersey. Each trip back home is incomplete without coming here. read more

I was hungry after stopping by our vet at Murray Hill, and decided to try their THEC and get a coffee. The service was just ok, even though it took awhile to give my order. There were no markings where to give my order. When a woman told me where to go, I had yo wait for someone else to take my order. Really? The ambiance was lacking. The coffee bar was messy and I had to scan around to find the cream. It was in the cold box by the counter with the salads. I wanted a THEC with a hash brown on it but they only had home fries. I just got the THEC. The roll was borderline hard, almost borderline stale. The Taylor ham was thick slices cooked well done, but there was hardly any cheese or fried egg on it. I chose this place over another place a few doors down because this one had 4 stars. I was not satisfied here and will not be back. I will try the other place. Buyer beware and enter at your own risk. read more

Perfectly fine sandwiches and good service, but it's just not as good as SubZone in Berkeley Heights, or even Cousins Deli in Berkeley Heights. I'm told the tuna is very good. The chicken salad was fine, but nothing I'd go out of my way to get. read more

I grew up with ham and swiss sloppy joes from this deli. After many years, they're still the same!! But this time, on the advice of a friend, I also tried a cheesesteak. My friend claims they're the best in town. And they are! Unlike others I've tried, this deli actually slices the beef fresh before cooking. The roll is soft, yet holds up well and there's a decent amount of meat. If you're looking for good value and a solid sandwich, Avenue Deli is the place to go. read more

Best deli in new providence hands down any and all sandwiches can't beat it and the price is beyond fair

Great sandwiches and salads. They are always busy but always so friendly. Not to mention they are so much cheaper than any sandwich or bagel place around! read more

Definitely the best sandwich shop in town. Grilled chicken sandwich is incredible! Workers are extremely nice and fast to serve. Definitely will be back. read more

Awesome sandwiches. I just had their double delight with roast beef and turkey, and it was amazing. This big sandwich will be my lunch and dinner. I will be going back to try all of their sandwiches. read more

Just little update that after renovations they have seating! Food still still same--meaning it's awesome. --- NJ Sloppy Joe. Never heard of it. Some cold cuts and cheese between bread with some cole slaw, doesn't sound like much (in fact, that's not what we call sloppy joe where I come from). But, something about it make you keep wanting more. I must have gained 10 lbs since I moved here. No ambiance and no seating (except for a few chairs outside), so take your sandwich and go hog wild in the privacy of your own home. read more

I always order their sandwiches for large events and almost everyone asks " where did you get these amazing sandwiches?" The best in town! read more

Great local family owned deli. We've order from them for years and have never been disappointed. Speciality sandwiches are great as are anything you order from the deli. read more

Best quality/price combo in the area. I work in the area and have been to dozens of lunch spots within a 5 mile radius; Avenue Deli is a worthy competitor for best deli around. I recently got the Double Sloppy Joe with corned beef and turkey with S&P and a fancy lime soda for $10. read more

the avenue deli is an old school 1970s 1980s style new jersey deli with an updated 2019 interior...great place for hot and cold subs and deli platters read more

I went here for the first time recently and could not believe how good my sandwhich was. Their prices are reasonsable and you actually get a food size sandwhich. The staff is very friendly. I will definately make this my go to sandwhich shop. This place is much much better than those chain sandwhich shops. read more

Avenue Deli is an incredible place. The food is very very tasty; the prices are reasonable; portions are big and the staff could not be any nicer. They say that the management of any business sets the tone for the entire staff. A job well done to Tony and Irene; two of the kindest people I know. Kudos ! read more

I moved to New Providence over two years ago and always like to know a good, local deli. I have ordered great sandwiches form Avenue in the past. They were always thick sandwiches with plenty of meat. However, I went there Sunday, May 3rd, 2020 and ordered two whole sandwiches. I paid for and received a whole turkey sub that literally had two small slices of turkey on it. "Find your Game Avenue". Subway sucks and so does Jersey Mike's but they put more meat on their sandwiches. Make me a repeat customer please! Bob Donfield (973)886-5090 read more

Ordered a Philly cheese steak here and it was okay. Just tasted like a roast beef sandwich. I don't think philly cheese steak was in the menu but they tried. The bread was good though read more

I make sandwhiches at home, and they are good, but sometimes I just need a deli sandwhich. I need that shredded lettuce and kaiser roll or hero instead of the broing slices from the bag. I need that sloppy helping of oil and vinegar that makes all my sandwhich toppings slide out the other end when I bite into it. Avenue Deli makes damn good sandwhiches. Period. Could they maybe update the place and paint or give it some life, sure. Could they do something awesome and attractive with their deli counter and sandwhich making station, I suppose. But let's face it, they arent here for ambiance. They are here to give you a SUB when you need it. I go ther faithfully. I also like that in the mornings if you order a breakfast sandwhich , they actually use real eggs and bacon to make it, not some microwaved liquid and pre cooked meat. The people there are pleasant and kind and it doestn hurt they have a huge NY GMEN player on days of the games or play off time....fine taste indeed. read more

My co-workers and I refer to this place as "Heavenly Deli" I legit had to google the actual name of the place so I could write the review. Honestly, I could have left the review at that sentence... This deli is GREAT. Pastrami, Corned Beef, Roast Beef. All to die for. Maybe get a double -- Pastrami, Corned Beef, toss some Pepper Jack Cheese on there and bacon. Heat it up, add some of their sauce (Thousand Island/Russian, I forget the distinguisher) and do you have a killer sandwich. Their subs are great, and when I am feeling a bit more health conscious, their chef salads are also great. They definitely use higher class meat than say the Subway across the street. I have not had any of their hot sandwiches. Whenever I go, I really want to try one, but that pastrami and corned beef is too hard to resist. read more

Best breakfast sandwich in town. Sloppy joes are excellent. Fair prices. I have returned several times since... great go-to deli.

Good sandwiches at good prices. Everything is average: bread/cold cuts/tuna/add ons...no seating inside so you have to take it to go. Old feel inside. Plenty of parking in the back (back entrance). Nothing over the top and on par with most deli's in area. read more

Don't expect to be blown away from the interior decorating - but that isn't why you are here is it? Do yourself a major favor and order the turkey joe on rye, grab a bag of chips and prepare to enter deli Heaven. This place delivers the flavor. read more

On second though, I suppose this place is pretty average. About 50% of the time in the last 2-3 months, the bread has been tough/borderline stale. That's enough for me to drop the rating. I only ever get one thing, turkey and provolone, probably because I'm scared to try anything else, especially the mystery prepared foods in the chafing dishes. Also, the people that work here are not particularly friendly. The one girl/woman barely acknowledges your existance, kind of mumbles under her breath, just seems annoyed in general. Not asking for a smile and a handshake, but for Christ's sake. read more
