    Located on chestnut street Street parking and there is a large parking lot in the back which is nice Inside is ok.some tables . Kinda looks half deserted. Didn't have any issues with staff. They greeted me- I ordered. I paid. I left Just tried one simple plain slice . Wanted to try from a different place other than my regular go to. My slice was warm like I like it. Nice amount of cheese. Overall-taste was ok- like a regular slice. Not terrible but not my favorite either. I didn't see very much variety in pizza slices but then again it was past 8pm.

    As a New Yorker, it almost feels like a sin to say this about a New Jersey Pizzeria, but Proud Papa's has some of the best pizza I've had. Specifically, their buffalo chicken pizza is to die for. Proud Papa's does both delivery and dine-in. There's not a ton of seating, but it's usually not packed. Their menu also doesn't stop at pizza, but includes sandwiches, salads, soup, and just about any American Italian dish you can think of- and I've been pretty happy with my meal every single one of the many times I've been here. The service is pretty fast, and their menu has a few coupons built into it. All in all, being that this is a pretty suburban pizza spot, the prices are incredibly reasonable.

    Been coming here for long time. We really like their thin crust pizza. Great chicken Cesar salad & minestrone soup. They even have gelato. Love that they have a rewards program which keeps you coming back.

    Excellent slice, one bite everybody knows the rules. 8.4. I grew up in the East village this reminds me of good New York slice. F@king Yum

    Just because I became aggravated reading the poor customer service comments. That's not how how you treat paying customers.

That is quite the…read moreachievement for any small, non-franchise business nowadays so that alone tells you something about this traditional style deli. I grew up in Brooklyn surrounded by this style of deli and they are quickly becoming harder and harder to find, so I was happy to check it out. The exterior of the deli is a bit deceptive. From the outside it almost looks like it's a hole in the wall, but when you walk in you realize there is an entire dining area with plenty of tables and chairs to the right, with the deli counter on the left. Behind the counter is a large fridge unit with the bold logo of my favorite cold cut brand: Boar's Head (there's a sign in the window too). That is one surefire way to get my business. There were a couple customers ahead of me but boy, they move quick here! They were quickly taken care of and I put my order in: turkey and swiss with tomato and mayo on whole wheat bread. Yeah, it's not the most exciting sandwich in the world but it's one I enjoy. I also snagged a couple drinks from the drink fridge across from the counter. I took this order to go. About fifteen minutes later I was munching on the sandwich and it was perfect. It held together well (sandwich structural integrity is very important in my book) and everything tasted fresh. There was a good amount of meat and cheese and I appreciated that. I was very happy with my first experience at The Gourmet Deli and I look forward to going back!

Located on Alden Street in Cranford, this establishment has been serving the community since 1976, and my colleague and I have come as first-timers yesterday to The Gourmet Deli. They offer fresh mozzarella, homemade pasta, and sandwiches. Greeted by Dominick, the owner, we had the entire deli to ourselves, and our assorted sandwich platter and Greek Salad were ready for us. Their bread was fresh, the meat and cheese were superior quality and more than sufficient, and it was very tasty. As an added bonus, we got a sampling of his famous signature Angel Hair Garden Salad, which was to die for and alone was worth a trip, which we can recommend.
