Ham, cappicola, salami, prosciuttini, provolone piled high with lettuce, tomato, oil and vinegar, and oregano. Wow, this sandwich was huge and it was just a half. I will be ordering from here in the future without a doubt. I think I just found my new favorite sandwich shop.

Excellent neighborhood Italian deli in Nutley. Feels like you're stepping back in time. Great…read morefood and neighborhood friendly service. 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.

On my rare day off, we went on the hunt for a new Italian sandwich joint. Today brought us to…read moreNutley, NJ. Plenty of parking on the side street. Old school Italian Deli, which I totally love. 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).

Had a delightful conversation with the owner of this small, attractive looking deli. Turns out, the…read moreguy is a former CPA/Accountant who decided he had been a "bean counter" for far too long ... so he decided to take a risk, and opened this cute Italian deli "around a year ago.." Anyway, after umpiring a well played 14U baseball game in Yanticaw Park, I found myself hungry for a filling Italian sub. I consulted Yelp! which highly recommended Salumeria Regina ... which certainly sounded Italian to me! lol Anyway, since the place was pretty quiet (it was after 2PM) I wound up chit chatting with the Owner (see above.) I actually wound up ordering a Salumeria Salad, which was akin to an Italian Chef Salad, only with Salami and Ham. Truth be told, the salad was a wee bit disappointing, because it was sorely lacking a few standard Chef Salad staples, such as a little sliced turkey or roast beef, maybe a second kind of "contrasting" cheese, a hard boiled egg, and possibly some olives or peppers, something to give it a little more variety. I did ask to substitute Arugula for the traditional Iceberg Lettuce; and add sun-dried tomatoes, so perhaps it was my own fault for substituting other ingredients. The salad was packaged in a nice sized container, but it was dominated by fresh Mozzarella, which was, indeed delicious. Next time, I will definitely try one of their more popular sItalian subs, which had been my original idea!

I was looking for imported pasta and found this place hidden away in Nutley. It's a small…read moreauthentic Italian deli tucked away in the land of Italian deli's. First off the pasta was great. Tired of buying pasta made here with too many ingredients. There were plenty of options. The pasta I bought tasted great and had only three ingredients. It was also pretty easy on the wallet, I expected to pay more. I also bought a loaf of fresh bread which I enjoyed. I will be back to try the sandwiches and deli items. The place smelled great. There are plenty of other imported Italian items which I'm going to try as well. Looking forward to coming back.

My wife & I are both retired & foodies. We Love to eat All Kinds of cuisines, be it a restaurant,…read moreDelicatessen, Diner, etc. I was in the mood for a Good Sub/Hoagie about 3 weeks ago so I Googled, "best sandwich shops" & Vilardo's came up on my search along with other establishments. Since they are only a few blocks from where I live decided to give them a try. So let's get started. CONS --- Entryway Front Step Very High with NO Railings. I'm over 70 and use a cane, so it was difficult for me to manage that step, but I did. Other than that No other cons. PROS --- Overall the place has a comfy atmosphere. There's an area for those patrons who prefer to dine in. Their menus are clearly posted w/pricing. They have a deli case with various salads Macaroni, Potato, Coleslaw, Pasta, Tuna, etc. which you can peruse while waiting in line. The place is Clean, the employees very Hospitable, and the food is Fantastic!! They DO NOT SKIMP when preparing your sandwich, salad or entree. Pricing is Extraordinary. If this had been any other Deli, I'd have paid at least $10-$15 dollars more. Since my original visit I've been back 2 times. I plan to try a different sandwich on each future visit I can safely say It will be a Long Long time if ever, before I go to a "Jersey Mikes", or "Blimpies," again. I've NEVER eaten at Subway, & Never Will! There are 2 or three other Deli's/Sub Shops that I like and will continue to patronize along with Vilardo's.

This was one of them. I'll definitely be back for another.

We finally made it this past weekend to Vinnie's Mootz for one of their special tasting menu…read morenights, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. If you're expecting a typical dinner, think again. The tasting menu featured around 12 courses, and by course ten I was completely full--but somehow still excited for what was coming next. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, packed with flavor and very tasty. For me the standout of the night was the very first dish which was Vinnie's homemade mozzarella with tomatoes, which was so good that we even bought some fresh mozzarella to take home. The meatballs were also outstanding, and the steak and eggplant course was another highlight. After all that food, finishing with a cannoli just felt like the perfect ending. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, but the food is every bit as good as what you'd find at restaurants that cost a lot more. Live guitar music throughout the evening added to the experience created a nice vibe. My only suggestion would be maybe to turn it down a notch or two as it was a little hard to hear others at our table. Still a very nice touch though and all songs you would know. I always like it when a chef comes out of the kitchen, especially at a tasting menu, and Vinnie came out several times to chat with guests which was very nice. It just added a personal touch and showed how much pride goes into both the food and the overall experience and we got to hear his back story. This tasting menu is an incredible value and a great way to try dishes you might not normally order. Just remember to come hungry--and maybe skip lunch beforehand. If you can get a reservation for one of these tasting nights, don't hesitate.

They host small private groups (3-6 people), and the space felt really cozy and intimate. By day it's a sandwich shop (the sandwiches look amazing!) and he also sells fresh homemade pasta and sauces to take home -- we can't wait to go back and try them. Mike reached out beforehand to ask about our preferences, which was such a thoughtful touch. The night started with a delicious antipasto spread, dip with bread, and a burrata salad, then we learned to make pasta from scratch. Mike was friendly, funny, and super patient. It was very beginner-friendly and we learned so much. Robyn was also super sweet and helpful -- she packaged up the pasta we made and regularly checked on us at the table to make sure we had everything we needed. Afterward we enjoyed multiple pasta dishes, amazing dessert, and we left completely stuffed with extras packaged to take home. It's BYOB and the experience lasted almost 3 hours. Perfect for a small group or girls night -- we can't wait to go back and highly recommend!

I'll definitely be back to try their disco fries. While we enjoyed this trip, I think I'll definitely come back to try their burgers too. They offer milkshakes too- which we split and it was a nice treat to finish lunch. This is definitely a place you can come to indulge in some cravings!
