We placed our order online using their website after a quick confirmation on their instagram account that they would be closing an hour early for Christmas Eve (usually open until 4pm). Grateful for them to be open at all and fulfilling the order 30 minutes before close. We arrived exactly as they were about to close and had our 3 sandwiches ready to go. We tried the Fratello and BLTA. Might try their gabagool for next time. Very tasty sandwiches but wished they sliced them in half. They are located in an industrial park close to department of corrections. We aren't Italian but I think they are the real deal considering the specificity in their menu. read more

I ordered online for pickup. They seem like nice guys... Service is questionable. It did not appear too busy when I walked in, but nobody greeted or asked if I needed help. When I did stand in front of a staff member working the front, he just continued to do what he was doing and pretty much ignored me until I said something. I guess you just have to walk up and talk to get his attention. (New York City delis even greet you...so perhaps it was an off day for the gentleman). I overheard and witnessed other stuff that was said, but anyways. The actual workers behind the counter/making the sandwiches were just doing their role, so I don't have anything to say besides the fact that my sandwich and my wife's were tasty. She got the gabagool and I got the Italian stallion. We both agreed that the sourdough could be improved a bit, but the deli meats tasted fresh. Would come back to try other sandwiches, but hope the service would be a little bit more attentive/friendly. read more

This was my first time ordering from here. I ordered the Gabagool and WOW... is it like New York? YESSSS!!! The roasted red peppers alone are worth it I could literally eat those by themselves. Everything in the sandwich just worked. I'm not sure if they make their own cold cuts, but whatever they're doing... it's incredible. Only thing I'm gonna say, you gotta get real with the chips. The PNW Tim's jalapeño chips are not it. You need Hal's New York kettle chips! read more

All i needed to know was Mike Adams owned it and i knew it would be good, and it was. Mike is the best cook

I have been wanting to trying them sandwichs here for a hot minute. I was able to talk my coworkers into it. We ordered online and I went to pick it up. It is in an industrial park. So definitely off the beaten path. I got back to the office and I couldn't wait to dig in. First off my order was correct! Second it smelled amazing. I had a chicken sandwich, 1 coworker had a turkey with provolone, the other a Ruben. All three sandwichs we absolutely outstanding. The only down side is they are not open on weekends and i cant get it door dashed. but I will make every effort to go go back. read more

I have been looking for something like this for YEARS here. But I never thought to use "new york deli" in my search terms. today in the nextdoor app someone suggested I use yelp to find a local italian deli. At first I thought to myself Ok you're just being a smart***. But then..I found this place. My mother drank RC [ask me when the last time I saw RC in ANY food place was..decades!]. And it smelled like my local neighborhood bakery back in Chicago..so I thought maybe? just maybe.. I had a shot at finding GOOD lunch meat instead of the local fare at the grocery stores here because they can't even pronounce half of what we need [not their issue though]. So.. I headed over. It's local..it smelled AWESOME inside..so friendly.. I couldn't even wait until I got home to rip open the lunch meat. IM NOT MAD..that's all im going to say. I don't care what your name is..you're MY italian deli now. Mia familia..try it. Just try it..you won't go back to the deli counter at roths or safeway. read more

We stopped in for a quick early lunch and left happy and full. We were greeted with a smile and welcome in by the lady behind the counter. They have a large selection of deli sandwiches as well as soups and Mac and cheese. Tuesdays Mac cheese special was bacon Mac and it is delicious a large order would be a meal all by itself. I ordered the number 9 The Bleu Uccello on honey wheat bread. Loved the bleu cheese mayo. My wife had the 17 Caprese which she loved because it was fresh and the bread was really good. read more

The sandwiches here were amazingly delicious! We drove up here from California and had just finished a 7 mile hike, my husband and I wanted a deli sandwich and man they did not disappoint! My husband got the #5 and I got the #8 with avocado and cucumbers so freaking good. Best sandwiches I have had even back in California. The customer service was great too they were so welcoming and caring! read more

Nothing better that searching "Best Deli Sandwich in Salem" and it turns out to be "The BEST Sandwich in Salem". We stopped in at Cozzie's NY Deli in Salem and the hype is well deserved. We were greeted promptly and with a great smile. We got there just before lunch rush and they were clearly primed and ready. I ordered the #11 Pinocchio- a classic and FANTASTIC Pastrami on toasted marbled Rye with a delicious slaw and dressing. He ordered a #4 Gabagool - a massive Italian meat sandwich loaded with tasty peppers on a soft hoagie roll. Both sandwiches came with a fresh crisp pickle. We got our sandwiches fairly quickly, while they kept up with the stream of online and called in orders as well as walk-ins. We were even sent on our way with "Have a great rest of your day!" It all worked like a well-oiled machine with a smile! The seating area is on the smallish side, but most of their clientele appeared to be from the many businesses around, so many were getting it to go. It is a very well kept Deli. Plenty of parking and easy to find. Restrooms were also clean and in good repair. This was the perfect place to stop for a lunch when we needed to travel through Salem. We will be remembering this spot for the next time we need to grab a bite in Salem. read more

Mmmmmm. Meatball sandwiches. If you order that don't plan to go far before you eat it. Saucy. And of course add chili flakes. Service is fast and friendly. Ambiance is low key takeout deli with a few tables. Clean. The cold cut sandwiches are great. But I cannot resist a meatball sandwich even I have to eat it there so I can wash my hands before touching my steering wheel. Drool. read more

Great sandwiches! Lots of Togo orders from outside businesses. Unlimited fountain drinks. Excellent service too!

Got back here and tried the Cheesesteak and the Pinocchio sandwich. The Pinocchio consists of pastrami, cole slaw, swiss, and Russian dressing on marble rye bread. So good! I ordered the Cheesesteak with (grilled) onions and it was rich and moist on good, chewy bread. Both were delicious, with good bread, flavorful meats, and awesome cheeses/sauces. Highly recommended! read more

The sandwich's here are absolutely amazing ! Totally will be going again. And the service was phenomenal. They were so sweet and patient on taking our orders. Great place to eat. read more

5 Star sandwiches. I'm from NY and I will say their hot pastrami and Ruben sandwich was as close to a New York deli as you will find in Salem. Their pickles are even great and they have club soda in their drink dispenser and that's free. Give them a try you won't regret it! read more

Love this most of the time but last visits have me dropping from 4 to 3. One miss I can take but a second time in a row? Ah, no. Ordered the #4 and what a disastrous mess! There is so much lettuce that was drowned in oil and vinegar that I had to get a fork and scrape off at key half. And the bread was not fresh. I suspect they had just opened for the day that they used old bread from yesterday. Terrible. Yes, I'll probably come back if if the next visit turns into a 3rd disappointment I will downgrade to a 1. If better, I will raise them back to a 4. But today it seemed the Subway could have done better. read more

Out of "town" but totally worth the drive - best Salem deli. Huge, tasty sandwiches. Very friendly staff. I'm giving only 4.5 stars because sliced "honey wheat" was stale and inedible. I'll definitely be giving this deli my business. read more

I had the best chicken cutlets in awhile! Great service, great food! It has a real deli vibe (because it is a deli!) also, get the Mac and cheese and thank me later. read more

First time in to this delightful restaurant. The #5 was the bomb. The best Reuben I've had in years. Clean and good service with a smile. Highly recommend. read more

This place calls itself a NY deli... not even close. They don't serve pastrami on Jewish rye, the only thing a NY deli is required to serve. They have some bs grilled pastrami with coleslaw. Not good, tiny amount of heated pastrami. Won't go back read more

My sandwhich was amazing and the mac and cheese was so good. They gave me a large for the price of a small just out of kindess!! Very nice folk read more

Best place to get a Deli sandwich in Salem, hands down. I stopped in for the second time this afternoon, but it was about 15 minutes before they were closing. I felt bad because I knew they were probably working on getting things closed down. However, they were more than happy to accommodate, and they couldn't have been nicer about it. I would have taken a picture of my sandwich, but it was gone in about 30 seconds. Didn't even stand a chance. I give it a 10 out of 10! I'll be back! read more

The chicken is worthy! Busy lunch and very little wait. Excellent food excellent service. Thanks! Will be back! read more

This place is not the same since new ownership. The bread not fresh, the assembly of the sandwich is sloppy and the ingredients are only okay. No Italian bottled sodas. The customer service is not very welcoming, the whole vibe is just off. read more

It's hard for me to say that it is my all-time favorite sandwich shop in Oregon, since different cultures make different sandwiches, I crave at different times. HOWEVER; this is the best east coast shop by far. read more

I've driven by this random little place for years and finally decided to Yelp it and see what it's about. Wish I would have done so sooner! If you are looking for a sandwich this hole in the wall is a great choice! Several selections with thinly sliced meats and cheese. The 'wedge' as they refer to it (bread) is chewy and soft! Huge sub, definitely filling. Customer Service was great, I went ahead of the lunch rush so they had my sandwich done almost before I was through paying. Can't wait to return and explore more menu items! read more

Cozzie's NY Deli - #15- The Sienna. (Roast Beef, sweet peppers, onions, mozzarella, and horseradish parsley mayo) - Delis Near Me - Salem, Oregon

Had Uccello Cheese half-sandwich (roast turkey, Provolone, lettuce, tomato, on sliced sourdough, minus mayo). Bag of Tim's Chips. Bottle of Diet Pepsi. Bread tasted fresh. Turkey tasted great. Lettuce crisp. Fast service at 12:30 lunchtime weekday. One person taking orders, 2 making sandwiches, one running till. Three customers in line in front of me, but I ordered, paid, and sat down at counter by window within 5 minutes. Sandwich was ready 5 min later Three more customers arrived after I sat down. Probably about a dozen customers either eating in or picking-up to go. Great fast service. Bustling welcoming clean. Good decor. US flag on wall. Italian flag just inside front door. I'll be visiting again. read more

Popular, busy, good quality ingredients, accommodating and caring employees. Clean restrooms. Hearty portions. read more

Best sandwich shop in Salem! The inside of the place is all business, so it's probably best to get your sandwich to go. Nonetheless they have over 20 options to choose from, as well as fresh bread choices as well, you can't go wrong. read more

Cozzie's New York Deli. We had a Neighbor (grilled Reuben) and a Pinocchio (grilled pastrami), which were good, solid sandwiches. I ordered at the counter, and service was fast and friendly, and the sandwich artists had our order ready in about seven minutes. I will be happy to return. Four Stars. read more

Cozzie's NY Deli - The Neighbor - a Reuben Sandwich on Marble Rye. - Delis Near Me - Salem, Oregon

I always loving coming here. Found Cozzie's about a year ago because I have a co-worker that likes to go to delis. I have gone from time to time and quality has not changed over the months - which is an added bonus in my books. Quick service and you can tell there are regulars at this spot. Lots of bread choices and they're hapoy to make adjustments. Will continue to come back on my future trips to Salem! read more

Located near the Salem airport; easy drive from Albany. Great selection of sandwiches, true deli atmosphere. Big supporters of first responders makes them tops in my book. read more

Ordered onljne at 10:58am. 40 mins later still waiting. Slow and poor customer service. That was after telling order taker that I had plans and had to be somewhere with food at 11:30. read more

In our quest for the authentic east coast hoagie, Cozzies is a 4+. We ate the #4, which features the three classic meats (salami, coppa and mortadella) and provolone. They use sweet marinated peppers instead of pepperoncinis, which was a surprisingly good (and according to my husband, authentic) variation. The bread was what they called a "wedge" - somewhat confusing online as I thought it was a salad - but in fact it was a classic hoagie bread that was chewy and soft but not wimpy. We took off a partial star for the use of balsamic vinegar when we asked for oil and vinegar instead of mayo - apparently we should have asked for "salad dressing.". But the use of mayo is blasphemy on an Italian sandwich so the downgrade is justified. Next time we will try The Dante: a spicier version with salami, pepperoni and pepperoncinis, but ask for provolone instead of pepper jack (really!). No dining inside yet, but nice restrooms!! All in all worth the detour off the highway into the industrial airport district. read more

Best sandwich in Salem. Educate yourself and try one out today! You will not find better meat in the PNW.

Wow, what a great, fast, friendly, well-priced and out of the way spot Cozzie's NY Deli is. I was visiting Salem on a Friday and wanted a sandwich I could take to Silver Falls. This place came up but I was very confused with the location. Then I realized that this serves the industrial workers in the area on the outskirts of town. Even when busy the place was very clean, fast and friendly. Lots of parking in front, seating for about 14 people or so inside with a bright white NYC theme. I loved my sandwich, which had real sourdough bread. I keep it simple with turkey, lettuce and tomato, dry with no sauces, no cheese. They got it perfect the first time, and loaded up the tomatoes unlike many places. The meat was of very high quality (you can tell it was from an animal recently, rather than those jumbled looking cuts you often see). The ordering was easy, as was the register. This team really has it down and can probably kill any lines quickly. You could tell there were many regulars. At under $8 for the sando and chips, I was sold. Head to Cazzo's NY Deli for any and all sandwich cravings. read more

This place is my usual spot for lunch. Best sandwiches I've ever found. They have a daily mac & cheese that is always spectacular. The meats and cheese are top notch. Its all tied together perfectly with a NY atmosphere and personable staff. My go-to is the Dirty Bird sandwich with pepperoni mac & cheese. Btw, I wanted to add how incredible the owner is to his community. This guy and his staff fed the fire department while they saved our state. Hes helped out a few times like that that really stuck with me. Salt of the earth. I belive in supporting those that support and you can tell Cozzies does too. read more

This deli screams NY style deli complete with an Italian flag, baseball memorabilia, and a vast assortment of meats! This is the second time I came in. First time (pre-Yelp) ordered "The Neighbors" which is actually a classic Reuben. Loved it! Second go around, I ordered "The Dante" which was practically a massive Italian sandwich... It was good. Meats were fresh, bread slightly on the hard side, but way too much mustard for my taste. Maybe it's my personal preference, but the mustard to mayo ratio should be even. The mac and cheese was okay. It was a little cold when I got back to work to finally eat it. A bit overpriced in my opinion, but not bad. All in all, this place was solid. You shouldn't be disappointed if you give it a shot. I'd put this place second to the Sub Shop in Keizer if you are looking for the best deli style sandwich locally. read more
