Petrillo's Deli - Italian Combo Hero - Delis Near Me - Northvale, New Jersey

Petrillo's Deli - Delis Near Me - Northvale, New Jersey

Best deli in the area. Every time I do a catering order with Petrillo's, everyone raves how good it is, especially the bread. I like how they do their chicken cutlets nice and thin, but put several slices on your sandwich. They are not stingy whatsoever with the meat. The owner is the nicest guy, very accommodating, and really puts in the effort when it comes to packaging everything up and making it look nice. The deli is clean and there is also a wide selection of chips and snacks. Appreciate you Petrillo's! read more

This is one of the best Italian delis I've been to in my life. Everything is always excellent! The hero's are perfect & loaded with meat. The bread is supposed to hold the sandwich together, not make you feel like you're eating a loaf of bread. Petrillo's has mastered the bread/meat/veg ratio. The pizza is excellent and so are the dinners. If you're not from the area, order extra for later. You won't be sorry you did. read more

Always consistent and friendly. Great Italian subs and all food is fresh and delicious. Family owned and operated.

If you're a Jersey Girl, relocated but going home for a 'fix' this is the place. Makes you ask why places like this aren't on the West Coast!! read more

Neighborhood institution. A family operation run by dad, mom and their son. Used to order from here often when we lived nearby. Nice to come back. It's definitely worth the hour drive to check out the old neighborhood, especially Petrillo's. One of our favorite deli in NJ, along with Fiori in Hoboken. Food is wonderful, but twice the portion compared to other places and with very reasonable prices. Check out their daily specials, especially their meat loaf, hot turkey, pepper steak, ribs, stuffed peppers, pasta, etc. They also make wonderful pizza with their sicilian being our favorite. Wonderful service. Highest recommendations. : 10 heros Note: This place gets very busy, especially during weekday lunch, so best to call and place your order. read more

Everything here is great! I love their pizza and sandwiches. The quality and freshness of the food is apparent with your fist bite.

when I visit my in laws, I look forward to getting the chance to get subs from here for lunch. it's a good sign when city workers, construction people, landscaper are order lunch from here. I usually order the cheese steaks and it's a nice big sandwich. it has plenty of meat onions and cheese. not a place to dine. order your sandwich, get out and enjoy somewhere like at home or your car. read more

What a great local deli! I got the Italian sandwich and it came packed with meat. There was a great balance between the meat and veggies as well. Would highly recommend if you're craving an authentic Italian sandwich. read more

Petrillo's Deli - Delis Near Me - Northvale, New Jersey

I have been going to Petrillos for many years now. Have never been disappointed. The food is fresh delicious and generous. I called to place an order one day and nobody answered. I figured they were closed. No just super busy as usual. They actually called me back. Nobody does that. Can't say enough good things about Petrillo's. read more

One of the best cheese pizzas Ive had in NJ hands down. It was cooked to absolute perfection and the crust was so soft and toasted just the right amount. It wasn't burnt or too dry/crispy. I had 3 slices and and prayed nobody wanted the last slice so I could eat it haha. The margherita wasn't the best though and the cheese looked like it went through my washer. I took a few bites passed it to my bf and went back to the cheese lmao. Would 100% buy my pizzas from here from now on! read more

Absolutely delicious and wonderful Catherine job done Got 50 sandwiches for a party The chicken was so delicious The fresh mozzarella The bread is wonderful Super helpful and order was smooth This was a delicious Italian deli! read more

My wife and I traveled here from Cape Cod in search of the best pizza from Rockland County NY through Bergen County NJ. We eventually landed here at Petrillos and met John and his parents working behind the counter. An old school hard-working family making traditional pizzas. We were blown away by what they had created, a super tasty combination of classic sauce and the perfect amount of cheese on a slightly crispy underbody with a soft but crisp crust. We ordered 13 pizzas that day, 10 plain,1 green pepper & onion, and 2 chicken cutlet and cherry pepper. We also tried an Itialian combo and Turkey sub, both were outstanding. Growing up in Old Tappan I cant beleive I never came here. We have a new can't miss Italian deli on our future trips back here. John and his family are now part of our food family. Pleasue to meet you all and looking forward to coming back. Thank you. Kevin & Melanie.

Petrillo's Deli - Sicilian Slice - Delis Near Me - Northvale, New Jersey

Best hot food and sandwiches around. Love the staff, always a warm welcome. They have been around 30 years for a reason.

Prices on the website was not up to date when I picked up the food to go. So just be aware.

We have been coming to Petrillo's for many years. John and his mom and dad do a great job. They make the best sandwich in the area.

The food is awesome. We had the chicken cutlet sandwich with prosciutto, mozzarella, and roasted red peppers and it was amazing!

You get the most for your money here. A medium hero is enough for 2 people. Staff always friendly and always working hard. Wish I was in town for lunch more often I'd be here daily. read more

The best sub around--hands down! My family has been ordering Petrillo's Italian subs for ages. Just do it. Get everything on it. It's perfect every time! Also, I strayed a bit recently, and ordered the tuna and I am so happy I did. It's not the typical American mayonnaise-heavy tuna salad. It's like the Mediterranean tuna on a sub roll. You can actually taste the tuna! I got it with onions, olive oil/vinegar, tomato--really simple. Reminded me of summers in Europe. Delicious! Servings are GENEROUS. But get extra b/c you will be craving more for days and these subs taste incredible after a day in the fridge. read more

Excellent Italian deli. Stuffed sandwiches. Very good pizza. My favorite. Very good lunch or dinner dishes. Staff is excellent at getting your order quickly and accurately. My favorite deli. read more

Passing through and stopped here for takeout. Helped that there was parking on the side. Was surprised to see their menu included pizza too. Got myself a few slices and a sicilian, which were pretty good. Looked like the people behind the counter were all family, which was nice to see. Hoping to get a chance to try their other foods the next time I'm passing through. read more

I have been frequenting Petrillo's Deli for many years. The food is excellent. The entire family is wonderful. They always take excellent care of all their customers. read more

We had an Italian sub and macaroni and potato salad which was delicious!! We met John, very nice and attentive.

If anyone was ever considering opening a deli, they should have to visit this place, because this is how it's done! The best deli I've ever encountered in any state. Try the breaded chicken with fresh mozzarella,roasted peppers and pesto on a seeded hero, oh my! Heaven! And an Italian combo? Truly the standard! read more

Conisistently puts out a great product at a great price. Sandwiches are always on point. Sausage and peppers are delicious. John and the family are great people. Awesome job as always. read more

First time coming here had an order of two stuffed peppers got two meals out if it. Will return nice family working here, please support the har working family, great food and nice business read more

Awesome place. They really load up their sandwiches and have an authentic buying experience. 10/10

I wrote a prior review that I can't find. Best deli I've been to in north Jersey by far. The reason for this additional review is I thought I'd add a couple standouts. The Italian sub is just excellent and made to order, as it should be. I add yellow banana peppers for a little extra zing, but the sandwich is still great without them. Also, their roast beef sub that I get with provolone and extra brown gravy is likewise outstanding. Honestly, these are the only two things I get because they're so darn good, and as I don't get there very often I have to get my "fix" of my faves. And the family who runs it is wonderful so you can feel good about supporting their business as well. I should mention I think they only take cash so come prepared. read more

Best deli Ive been to in nj. I would highly recommend it. We always grab a sandwich before golf. It's part of the tradition. I think my son likes the sandwiches better than the golf. read more

One of my go to delis. They're always filled with regulars in the morning having breakfast and coffee. I usually get a chicken cutlet hero and it's massive. I'm sure the breakfast sandwiches and pizza are great too. Friendly service read more

Food is fresh. Staff is friendly. Huge portions. Best caprese sandwich I have ever had.

I called ahead to order a Philly cheesesteak. There's a parking lot to the side of the deli. There's a side door that you can walk through. The food was ready after I walked in. It cost $8.50 and was a medium-sized sub. The club size is 6 inches and the hero size is 12 inches, so I'm guessing the medium was about 9 inches. It was more than enough for me and tasted delicious. A father and son were working together, and it's nice to see a family-owned business. read more

I can't believe I never wrote a review for Petrillo's. This is my favorite deli in all of NJ. I have convinced my company to use them for corporate lunches for the last few years after I discovered the high quality and reasonable prices. My company has been very pleased to work with them. Petrillo's has great quality sandwiches and salads but what sets them apart from other delis is the quality of their prepared food. They have a few hot dish options available for quick service every day. Their Eggplant Parm us amazing. I have ordered trays of it for parties I hosted in my home. Petrillo's also offers some Italian cookies and market items (like canned tomotos) and they have some pasta's available to take home an cook. read more

I come here three times a week. Food is just awesome. This is a mom and pop w/son shop. The mozzarella cheese is so fresh I can hear the cows moo. The sandwiches are so fat, you'll be bigger than New Jersey in no time, but never fat as that dummy Chris Krispy Cream Christie. read more

This place is the real deal! It's owned and operated by an old school Italian family. Everything is made from scratch daily and they even grow a lot of the Ingredients in their personal garden! read more

BEST HEROS! If you're looking for a meal that is filling, satisfying and a great deal of a meal this place is for you. Their heros are packed to the brim and bursting with flavor I'm obsessed with their meatball parm hero Their bread is the perfect balance between soft and crunchy Their sauce and meatballs dont make the bread soggy nor do they make you feel like you need more sauce because it's dry like some other Heros And they don't skimp on the meatballs either My husband gets the grilled chicken and Swiss and it's just as incredible We go to Petrillo's often for their amazing food that's a great value for the money. read more
