Ordered: Turkey, Roast Beef, and Swiss Cheese on a Hero ($16): with everything aka lettuce, tomatoes, sweet/spicy peppers, onions, and mayo Deep River Sea Salt Chips ($2) Aya's take: Could you ever really go wrong with an Italian sandwich? There are a few Italian delis in the Hoboken area and I decided to check out M&P. I stopped by 15 mins before closing (I wish they would open later) and ordered right away. The sandwich is massive. It was shared among 2 people and I couldn't even finish my half - I ate it the next day and yes, it still hit the spot. The hero was fresh, firm on the outside, and soft on the inside. It held everything together decently and I definitely recommend getting all the toppings on it. The only thing lacking on the sandwich was some red wine vinegar and olive oil. No sandwich is complete without a bag of chips so do yourself a favor and grab one too. Check them out and remember, it's cash only! read more

Super friendly owners! Was very cool to watch them slice each cold cut! Fresh mozzarella was delicious and the prosciutto. This place is a bang for buck. Hands down. You can feed 2 or even 4 if you make little flatbreads. Unfortunately, I didn't know this ahead of time and was a bit bummed out on the proportion size. It was pretty difficult to eat. But giving it 5 stars because everything is fresh! read more

Best eggplant parm sandwich I've ever had. Also regularly get their prosciutto and mozzarella. Looks like they put too much cheese but I can never get enough of it. The couple that works there are always so nice and it feels like I'm getting food from my own family. Service couldn't be better and it feels like I go back in time whenever I walk in there. read more

Tooo00000000 much food overkill. They pack so much meat into the sandwich that it can't even close all the way. Now I'm all for a big nice fat sandwich, but when you can't wrap your wide open mouth around the sandwich and it becomes so messy that it begins to fall apart and spill all over the place, it's not a pleasant experience... read more

Cash only Got the roast beef, mutz, and roasted peppers ($16) to compare to the other Italian delis in town. I'm not sure if the roast beef is store made, but it seemed more like supermarket roast beef. The mutz is excellent, just a tick down from Fiore's and Lisa's on a good day but better than them on a better day. The peppers are a nice touch. Excellent consistency that's easy to bite and chew. Got the chicken cutlet sub with fresh mozzarella and roasted peppers ($15). The slab of mutz was 3/4 inches thick and the length of the 10 inch sub. The chicken was good but a little old. The mutz is absolutely fantastic; it's fluffy and delicious. The peppers are thick, and they complement the chicken and mutz perfectly. I really appreciate that the sandwich held together. The chicken cutlet is the sandwich to get. read more

Best sandwiches around! Much more value and flavor compared to Vitos. HALF a sandwich feeds 2 easily!! Always so sweet and great Italian products. They love our pup too :) read more

The sandwiches here are an absolute unit. Literally "half" a sub can feed two people. Don't be like us and order 3 "halves." They have very classic Italian New Jersey style subs, thinly sliced meat piled high on some fresh bread. Make sure to drink plenty of water as the sodium content is through the roof, but they're delicious. read more

This is currently my favorite deli in Hoboken. You pay a good amount but it is completely worth it as the sandwiches are 2 inches thick. A very nice couple owns and operates this establishment. I've had multiple sandwiches from here and none have disappointed. read more

Amazing spot. Long-term owners are extremely friendly, and sandwiches are the largest in town. You will legit get 2 meals out of 1 sandwich here and this is coming from a walking garbage disposal that can eat with the best of them. Their mozzarella is delicious and it never gets lost in their meat-packed sandwiches. Go with one of their specials with Italian cold cuts and mozzarella and you won't be disappointed. Or do a prosciutto, mozzarella, and sun-dried tomatoes which is my personal favorite. I also have tried some of their catered baked ziti a long time ago and remember it being incredible. If you are ever uptown and want to taste an authentic Italian deli sandwich, stop by M&P! read more

Old school deli. Husband and wife run this place and will tell you how it is good or bad. I've been yelled at a couple of times myself lol part of the experience. Sandwiches are massive so be ready for it. Mozz is amazing and they actually supply the salad shop alfalfa's mozz as well. The chicken parmigiana sandwich is huge and great. They catered a party for us before and cut up a bunch of sandwiches for us on a platter. Everyone loved it! read more

Old school deli run by a husband and wife that have been doing it right for a while. This is a straightforward spot that has all the bells and whistles of your typical deli. They have huge sandwiches at an insanely reasonable price so you are covered. I will say sometimes the sandwiches are so packed with meat and cheese that it is hard to eat but its better than skimping on the ingredients. I went with the chicken cutlet with american cheese mayo, lettuce, and banana peppers. So good and it was more than I could eat. The mozzarella is also a just order and they make it fresh daily. When you order it on a sandwich is comes packed on there. Perfectly silky and milky and done just right. They also have hot food that sells out quick if you don't come early! The chicken parm is beautiful but they also have eggplant parm. The chicken cutlets are also solid so get them on a sandwich. I love Mom and Pop shops that do it right. I hope they stay here for many more years. Highly recommend when in Hoboken. read more

You can't beat this old school Italian deli. First off - best bang for your buck, period. The sandwiches are HUGE and a few dollars less than others in the area. Secondly, it's super flavorful and fresh every time. Italian combo vibe this visit with prosciutto, hot capicola, mortadella, fresh mozzarella and roasted peppers that weighed probably 3 pounds. Go by and see for yourself! read more

Hands down, the best mozzarella I've ever had. Came here with high expectations and they delivered! Usually delis are in a rush and don't have much time for small talk or providing top tier customer service, especially if they're really good and know it. But the person behind the counter was very entertaining and friendly too! We had gotten the Italian sandwich and breaded chicken and mozzarella sandwich. The Italian sandwich was delicious, meats were fantastic. However I would highly recommend the chicken and mozzarella sandwich simply based on the fact that you can really taste the cheese. And they are not shy with it at all! Definitely at this point my favorite deli in all of Hoboken. And one of the best quality sandwiches I've had. read more

This place is legit. I attended the annual Mozz fest and these guys win easily. The secret is they don't let the mozz sit overnight and get rubbery but bring it fresh from the deli to the tasting after making in the wee early hours like a good baker. They make killer sandwiches as well and I waited to post this after finally trying the more famous competition a few blocks east and these guys win again in the sandwich duel. This place is a gem. read more

Life changing! This is the softest, creamiest, perfectly salted pillow of mozz you will ever have. Light years beyond any fresh mozz I have tasted. We each got a "whole" sandwich (meaning whole baguette) to make it worth our while. We got there on the early side because I hear they typically run out of ingredients by 3pm (or earlier)! We tried the prosciutto/mozz/roasted red pepper and the mozz/tomato/basil/balsamic (they were out of fresh basil so they used pesto instead). They serve it open faced with thick slices of mozz so they can get pretty unwieldy (not a bad thing!). The sandwiches were great but the real star was the mozz - I could eat it plain or as a caprese salad any day. The mozz was still warm, so if you take leftovers home it will harden up a little in the fridge and won't be the same as eating it right then and there. They also have some imported Italian groceries/snacks/drinks (san benedetto teas) and hot food. It's a small place so seating is limited. On the way home, I slipped into a cheese coma like never before - sleepy, calm, content, and not a care in the world! read more

Ummm..I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHO'S BEEN KEEPING THIS DELI A SECRET FROM ME THIS WHOLE TIME?? Seriously? Incredible. Easily one of the best subs I've ever had in my life. Ham, cappicola, prosciutto, pepperoni, fresh mozz, a I had him addsundried tomatoes. Loved loved loved every bite I smashed into my face. Amazing sub, lovely staff, cute dog..do you need anything else? Nope, they got it all. read more

Love the fresh mozz here! Also great they have a menu to choose from but you can always add or create however you want. Great bread too!

We stopped by yesterday to get our lunch. We got #C and roast beef with fresh mozzarella and grilled red peppers. Both sandwiches are sooo crazy good!!! The mozzarella is a killer!! It's one of my fave mozzarella thus far. Good texture and good taste, and they put a generous amount of mozzarella on your sandwich as well. The bread is also good and at par with other Italian deli shops in the area. Quite chewy but not tough chewy even when it's cold. I wish the bread is warm (who can resist fresh breads right out of the oven), but then that's rather typical among Italian deli shops. And the size - oh my!!! Even for $12, with the amount of meats and cheeses that they put, it's so worth every penny. This shop is thus far my favorite Italian deli shop in NYC/Hoboken/Jersey City area. I would definitely come back here without any doubts!!! There are several excellent Italian deli shops in the area that I have personally tried, but this one is definitely very special and win my heart. It's somewhat a smaller shop. It's an honest, old school, and no frills shop. Not sure if it's COVID-19 era thing and they're running with minimal staffs, but when we're there, the shop / counter was run by only 2 people; possibly a husband and a wife. I felt that I was getting my sandwich from the old country - which felt like a legit thing!! By the way, for a first timer (like myself) ordering your food could be quite challenging and intimidating, especially with the add-ons like roasted peppers, basil, and etc. You can't also spend 15 mins wondering what to order. You gotta order your sandwich pretty chop-chop. You have to appreciate the fact that they're only 2 people working in the shop and there might be customers waiting behind you. You can enjoy your order outside. There are some limited 3-5 outdoor tables right by the entrance door. There is no service though. The indoor dining area appears to be closed. read more

What a freaking sandwich!!! Had heard a lot about m&p and it surely lived up to the reputation. Walked in around 1pm on a Saturday for lunch. We saw how enormous the sandwiches were on yelp so we decided to split one half, which was absolutely the right call! There was only one person in front of us when we came in so we ordered very quickly. We went with sandwich C - ham, salami, prosciutto, capicola, mozz and then we added roasted red peppers and oil and balsamic. I've literally never seen so much meat or mozz stuffed into a sandwich. It was impossible to get one bite with everything in the sandwich because it was that wide. Definitely messy to eat! The mozz was the best part of the sandwich. The meats were great too but damn that mozz is on another level. The soft bread was good too but nothing to write home about. The sandwich was $10.50 - perfect size for two. Would definitely love to come back and try other sandwiches, bring home mozz, and get some of the hot food! read more

In town from Alabama for a wedding and the bride had this place on the tip of her tongue as a place we should try. Oh My Goodness! We arrived about 3:30 on a Saturday to find a short line. As our turn came up, we were presented with "I'm out of bread. It will be 20 minutes before the bakery delivers more." I'm all about eating local when I travel and this place is clearly local, so my wife and I decided to wait. After a short time, they started stacking chairs. They explained that if they didn't close by 4:00 folks would come in and hang out until midnight, so we were the last customers of their day. The bread arrived on time, and my wife and I ordered a half sandwich each. We should have shared one half between us! I barely finished half of my half and my wife had 3/4 of her half left when she cried uncle. Never in my life have I had a sandwich with this much meat on it. Enormous portions, fresh bread, delicious meats, what more could you want? This is all buildup to the mutz-yes, I learned a new word today. [Mutz - Noun. Short for mozzarella] I love cheese! These folks make fresh mutz everyday. Because we had to wait, we were treated to a large slice one one of the best fresh cheeses I've ever eaten before we got our order. We Americans often describe our travels in terms of the foods we eat. If you find yourself in Hoboken, this is a great place to make a food memory! read more

Omg. This muz/moz/mozzarella is out of this world. We overdid it our first time and ordered way too much to take home. But don't worry, none was wasted. If you're looking for fresh mozzarella for your holiday platters, sandwiches or if you just love mozz and want to eat it by itself, this is the place to go. Their chicken cutlet sandwich is solid as well if you're looking more than just mozzarella. We're back for our second time, stocking up for the "holidays" aka we just needed an excuse to make it acceptable to eat another lb of mozz. Def give this place a try and support this small business ! #shoplocal read more

I've been hearing that the sammies here are bomb and one Monday afternoon, I finally got to try it. I ordered a prosciutto and mozzarella Sammie ($11.50). It sounds pricey for a sandwich but trust me, with the amount of meat and cheese they stuff in there, it's completely worth it. My boyfriend and I shared it as we were both stuffed! My only gripe was the bread. It was super chewy. I'm not sure if it was because I went midday and I got the second to last piece of bread. But I'm willing to go earlier next time and give it another try. Their mozzarella is just too good to pass up. read more

Meats? More meats. Meats? More meats. Meats? Meats. My most sincere apologies to Bova's Bakery in Boston - your reign of "best Italian sub" ended the moment I took my first bite. A good measure of any deli like this is how strong of an Italian they have - and believe me, it is AMAZING. For $9, I got a fully loaded Italian piled so high (with some of the tastiest Italian meats i've ever had) that the bread wouldn't even close . It lasted me two lunches, though it was so good I'm surprised I didn't kill the whole thing in one sitting. And this was just ONE sandwich. I still need to try the roast beef, the mutz, the various parms...but I know they will be amazing, because this one sandwich...it's hard to find the right words to accurately describe it's greatness. I'm an Italian guy through and through, so I could come here every single day. Even if you aren't in the market for a sandwich, they have other Italian food, Italian sides, and a lot of Italian groceries to buy. I was the only one in there (late lunch) and had time to stare at every single thing they sold and chat with the awesome owners (who spoke, of course, Italian) while I ate my food. There are a lot of places to go in Hoboken for food like this, and many of them are fantastic - but M&P, at this moment, tops the list for me. Go here. Eat sandwiches. Be Italian. read more

This is probably one of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten. The mutz- OH EM GEE!!!! It is literally THEE BEST!!! I got the roast beef, turkey, mutz, roasted pepper, and onion and it was sooooo filling... Got the half, and you can literally split it with someone and still be full. I stuffed it down b/c it was soo good. The couple working there (I'm guessing the owners) were super friendly. It is a bit pricey but worth every penny. I paid $13 for my sandwich and a water.

Been in (downtown) Hoboken 25 years and love me some Fiore's and Vito's heroes. I eat there weekly. But often I would hear people singing the praises of M&P's. I decided to order an Italian Hero. I didn't spell it out, I figured they must have a standard Italian Hero on the menu. Asked for sweet peppers. They had in ready for pickup in 20 minutes. Basically it was boiled ham, salami, mutz, lettuce, tomato, roasted red peppers & oil/vinegar. No offense, but I kinda was expecting a bit more. I read reviews about how the sandwiches are "LOADED". I would agree - it was a big slab of ham & salami with two teeny-tiny slices of mutz on it. The mutz was delicious, no doubt. But they really were cheap with the amount of mutz on the sandwich. The meats - just your standard cold cuts. My guess it was Thumanns. I was thinking maybe they would have capicola or mortadella on the sandwich versus just a ham and salami sandwich. Also it was a bit soggy. Drenched in oil and vinegar, sitting for a bit, and it was a mess to eat. Was it good? Sure, I would rate like a 7 out of 10. But for my time and money, i'd pick Vito's over M&Ps. They just craft a nicer sandwich with the Vito's Hero. Probably won't come back. I don't get the "wow factor" everyone gives this place. It's okay. read more

A friend was working in Hoboken & asked me to meet him for lunch. He wanted to go to M & P Biancamano, a Hoboken institution. 30 years ago he lived directly across the street and although he moved out in 96, he still considers this place to be like home. It's really old school & every year they win the Best Mutz contest. Food is great, sandwiches are pricey but worth it. The sandwiches were around 10 each but they can feed a family of 4. My buddy's sandwich was sopressata, mozzarella & peppers. He inhaled half. Me? I ate 1/4 of my roast beef, ham & mozz and wrapped the rest. Ate another 1/4 at home, shared some with the husband, and then the evil dog made off with the last of it. Delicious! They haven't sold out to the Boar's Head mafia! read more
