I go to Mario's Deli to get fat and get a real taste of extremely good and nourishing bread, meats and cheeses. Mornings and lunchtime are the busiest but it says a lot about the taste of Mario's skilled cooking and authentic components. His bread is crusty and tastes like home-baked, the breakfast sandwich is great concoction and will definitely hold you until lunchtime. Remarkable prices for all the work they have to do, quality ingredients, tasty bread loaded with delicious taste. Sandwiches, bagels, cherry and blueberry morning muffins with home baked flavor. Friendly, efficient, speedy service. It's all good at Mario's. read more

My girlfriend brought sandwiches from Mario's this past Friday. I had the Honey's Honey and it absolutely delicious. The other 3 girls had the Italian Sub which they said were very good..The sandwiches had a lot of meat on them.. These 3 girls and myself meet up every 2 months for lunch at one of the girls house. At our next meet up I will ask my friend to please pick up the Honey's Honey for me.. I read more

Extremely Disappointing Experience - Ignored and Forgotten My son and I visited Mario's Deli today, May 17, 2025, around 12:45 PM, and it was hands down the worst deli experience I've ever had. We walked in and were completely ignored by the staff for a full 15 minutes. It wasn't until another customer came in and looked ready to order that I had to speak up and point out that we hadn't been served. I placed a simple order for two sandwiches: one plain turkey sandwich and one half pastrami with American cheese and mustard. After another 15 minutes passed, during which at least four other customers who came in after us received their orders, our sandwiches were still nowhere in sight. When I inquired, the staff claimed they "might've fell somewhere" and they couldn't find our order ticket. By this point, my son had been waiting patiently for 45 minutes just to get a simple sandwich. I had to specifically ask them to please, quickly make my son's sandwich as he was very hungry. I always try to be understanding and avoid confrontation, but this level of disregard and inefficiency is unacceptable. Waiting 45 minutes for two basic sandwiches, being ignored, and then told our order was lost is beyond frustrating. This experience has unfortunately pushed me to share this negative review. We will not be returning to Mario's Deli. read more

Best Italian subs in the area. Enough to satisfy 2 normal or 1 hard working person, but taste is what makes their sandwiches worth going here. Service is very friendly and they offer take out or eat in. Cash only. Best to call in and save the wait. read more

I got kind of sick after I ate here. I had a Taylor Ham and Egg Sandwich. Maybe it wasn't cooked all the way? I don't know. But the inside of the restaurant was not the cleanest either. Maybe they need to cook their food longer or something? read more

I have patronized this deli for years. There's a new person doing the cooking on the grill, I guess, I stopped in this week and ordered a Taylor Ham and cheese on a hard roll, and specified the Taylor Ham to be well done, very crispy. The kid taking the order seemed to have a hard time writing it down. I got the sandwich, looked at it in the car and found it wasn't well done at all, so I took it back and asked them to remake it, which they did, and it was fine this time. I don't know why it's so hard for people to cook Taylor Ham well done, It's not rocket science or brain surgery. I used to have the same problem at Place By The Tracks deli in Vernon. They got it right maybe 50% of the time. Of course, they went out of business, which didn't surprise me. I think people today simply don't do a very good job of listening. read more

Mario and his assistances are only using prime meat and vegetables. I live next door to Mario's and frequently eat the experienced kitchen help carefully separated using top fresh food and have experience twenty four years in the same business selling pure and top choice food available. If you drive to Mario's at five AM you'll see a valued line of workers for carry out breakfast & lunch food better than what you get later on and value the quality. read more

Grabbed breakfast at Mario's Deli on Sunday morning. Ordered a Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Sandwich on a Round Roll and a Coffee. Quality Looking to grab some breakfast on the go, we stopped into Mario's Deli. Unfortunately our original plan to get bagels was quickly derailed, since they had already run out of bagels. Honestly, I was surprised since we were there at 10:00, which seemed too early to be out, but we decided to continue with our order anyway. I went with a Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Sandwich on a Round Roll. It was a solid sandwich, with a good ratio of cheese, meat, egg, and bun. The roll was very fresh and I thought the sausage patty was delicious. I also ordered a cup of Coffee, which was perfectly fine. Overall, a good experience. Quantity The Breakfast Sandwich was larger than I expected. It also was very fair in terms of the meat and cheese thrown on. Value My Breakfast Sandwich with Sausage, Egg, and Cheese came to $4.50, which was very reasonable. Just make sure to have cash on hand. Ambiance Mario's Deli is located in northern New Jersey, close to the border with New York. It sits in a small strip mall near a busy intersection. The space is very long with a seating area near the front, a long counter along the left wall, and then some fridges towards the back. Above the seating area in the front they had a television that was showing the news while Christmas music played in the background. A simple space, primarily made for to-go orders. Crowd When we arrived around 10am there were about a half dozen people in line. By that time they had already run out of bagels. I don't know if there is a mad rush on Sunday morning, or if it was just a strange day because of the upcoming holiday, but almost every guest inquired about the bagels and was disappointed by the answer. Service The staff was friendly enough, but you could tell they were a little annoyed by the questions about the bagels. The food came out quickly and the coffee station and tables were all kept spotless. Parking They have a small private parking lot directly in front of the store. Extra Mario's Deli served up a solid breakfast sandwich, and looked like they would also be reliable for other deli sandwiches as well. However, I can't help but be disappointed that their bagels didn't even last until 10:00. Maybe it is because they fly off the shelf, but I think it is more likely they failed to make the right amount. read more

Mario's Deli - Sausage, Egg, And Cheese Breakfast Sandwich - Delis Near Me - West Milford, New Jersey

Avoid this dump. Rude owner and bad service. Nothing special about the food. Just an unpleasant, frustrating experience. Stay away!!!

A friend of mine frequents this deli twice a week for lunch before work (yes, she's considered an essential worker). After she placed her order the owner rang her up and said, in front of other customers, that she is "a real pain in the ass." It's sad that in times of uncertainty for small businesses, this man found it necessary to insult his customer. You just lost a few frequent flyers. read more

Best eggplant wrap ever! Great wrap platter- have used them several times. Good service, nice staff.

Food is delicious and they're generous with their portions. My favorite. I get all my sandwiches from here as well as my bacon and egg breakfast. Thanks read more

The only place I will go for a hero sandwich. They are always friendly and it's the only deli around that actually puts meat on a sandwich. You don't mind spending a extra dollar or two if you actually get meat on a sandwich. read more

Excellent deli. Clean and courteous staff. Loaded sandwiches. We bought two subs and could have split one. Home made salads not the stuff from a giant tub. Fresh cut meats so its not sitting around Grab a sandwich and hit the lake! read more

Great Deli sandwich! I am not from the area and just stopped in. They made me a huge ham & Swiss with more meat than other delis I know! Fresh bread and cold cuts also. read more

I've gone here for bagels, and on that front, they're pretty good. Call in your order if you don't want to wait, as they can get quite busy. The reason for my lower review was I went in yesterday looking for a catering menu for a quite large party (150+) that I'm planning. The first young girl, annoyed in general I wasn't simply ordering a sandwich, threw her hands in the air and said "we don't have anymore" and then turned her back to me. An older (early 40s) woman was much more helpful, and eventually the owner got an old menu out of the back, but quite rudely said "prices have probably changed". I get it. They get busy. But there's better ways to handle clients that take the same amount of time. Take my number and offer to call me directly when you're not so busy to talk about catering. Just was very disappointed in the customer service. read more

I love their fresh bagels and coffee however, the owner (The Guy) and his staff are kind of rude. The chip on the shoulder thing and the ATM/ no credit card is an issue. Will not return. read more

This place is the perfect spot to pick up either a quick snack or even sitting down and having a meal. The food is amazing and the service is equally as good. They always make sure people are being helped and at the same time making sure the food is up to high standards. Highly recommend. read more

they should tell people when they buy a gift certificate that it expires quickly, it says that no where on the coupon.....you lose the whole thing....he lost a customer...and their bagels are just ok.....there is other places is West Milford that are close and way better read more

AMAZING FOOD. My profile picture is a breakfast sandwich from Mario's! It was really cheap too. This place is a great spot to eat or order from! read more

Always friendly service. Always great food. Generous portions. Reasonable prices. My boyfriend took a breakfast sandwich to his school in Mahwah, everyone saw it and wanted one. The guys in his class started paying him to bring them sandwiches. There's plenty of deli's between West Milford and Mahwah. The quality is top notch. My only wish is that they also had a food truck that goes from business to business. read more

Dont get there often but best around. My hero will last me all week. It will stay fresh. Prices so reasonable. Counter help always polite and fast read more

Pretty solid deli with a nice assortment of sandwiches. They don't skimp on the meat like some places. The bagels are passable, but nothing special. A great place to stop after a hike, or before a hike to stock up on sandwiches for lunch. read more

Rude staff. Burnt food Didn't get what I ordered Door open ceiling fans on in 47 degree rainy weather I ordered a chicken cutlet sandwich with cheese lettuce tomato and light mayo. I watched the girl write it down. When I saw the other girl making the sandwich and putting too much mayo I asked her politely to go easy on the mayo and she threw the spoon back in the mayo thing. This girl was not a happy camper and was rude to the other girls. What I got was a burnt chicken cutlet no lettuce no tomato. This was not a good experience. We were going to eat in the deli but the staff had the door propped open with all the ceiling fans on. It was cold and depressing. It's 48 degrees and raining. It's like they didn't want anyone to stay cause they wanted to go home. And by the way there was not one person sitting down to eat. Not a good experience overall. I won't be going back. And the girl making the sandwich was so miserable I do not know why she was allowed to work. No manager anywhere in site to control things. Horrible. Bad experience. read more

great deli, big selection and portion sizes are huge. place is always clean and staff are super friendly. im here every sunday when im in town. recommend for breakfast, lunch and dinner why not read more

Mario's Deli - a counter with a variety of pastries - Delis Near Me - West Milford, New Jersey

See all

The BEST deli in town ! We go probably once or twice a week, Mario and the girls make you feel like family. Some of my favorites include the eggplant wrap, Britney's best and the Italian delight. The homemade soups in the fall and winter are so comforting and delicious . Mario does ALL my catering, the chicken franchise and penne with vodka sauce are out of the world. read more

Love the eggplant wrap they serve here but rude girl working the register made us not want to return.

Best deli in the area. Spotlessly clean. The sandwiches are huge and delicious. My only complaint is they aren't open later.

Mario's Deli. What a find! I wandered in here one day when the other local deli screwed up my breakfast sandwich for the umpteenth time. So, I thought let me try out Mario's. I walked in and had one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. I have been a loyal customer ever since. I would not shop anywhere else for me breakfast or lunch sandwich needs in West Milford! This is the best place in town for Bagels, breakfast sandwiches, and heroes. Mario's is a family business. Mario is on site every day making sure everything is perfect. Mario, his wife or his son are usually working the grill. His ingredients are always fresh, and he uses boar's head products, which I prefer to Thumans. You can get breakfast sandwiches anytime of day. And the breakfast sandwiches are LOADED with bacon and eggs. I may be wrong on this, but I think he uses three eggs on each sandwich and more bacon than should reasonably be on a sandwich (and I mean that in a great way, because let's be honest, there's no such thing as TOO MUCH BACON!!!). And the sandwiches are huge and are a great value. Breakfast or lunch, the sandwiches are loaded. One hero is usually enough for my wife and I for lunch. And I eat a lot. The only drawback is that they are so great, that it can get busy in there during the weekend breakfast and lunch rush. So I would advise placing your order by phone so you don't have to wait out the rush. The customer service is great and Mario knows every customer by name. If you want a great breakfast sandwich, bagel or hero, go see Mario. You won't be disappointed. Enjoy! PS - That is not a picture of Mario's, it is a picture of a diner across the road. read more

Great deli.They did a wrap platter with salads for me. It was excellent! Will definitely use them again.

Had a great lunch Turkey and Swiss and a soup very good! Parking for big trucks cross the street in the mall!

Don't show up when the ATM is out of order! When I pointed out it was broken, the owner scolded me and said "We never take cards." So then I got to take my baby to an ATM down the street, just to come back to cold food and a dirty look. Thanks for ruining our Sunday breakfast. read more

Without a doubt the best deli in the area. The wraps and sandwiches are great. I highly recommend the Eggplant Wrap or the Honey Delight!

Staff is completely rude and stuck up. I've been in west Milford for 10 years and have been to every eatery, Marios has good sized sandwiches but the experience is the worst and I often find hair in my food. Do not recommend. read more
