Saddle River Deli - Salad - Delis Near Me - Saddle River, New Jersey

See all

Solid sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. Hobo wrap is filling. Wish it was open later and sundays though.

Unfortunately nothing positive to speak of. The women at front counter is less then courteous and I'm being very polite in my description of her. The gentleman making sandwiches moves pretty slow and was more interested in looking at his phone. I've been here multiple times out of desperation when I just need something in my belly while working . This deli is really the only game in town and I'm sure that is what they rely on for steady business because the is food neither great nor bad but service and friendliness is subpar. read more

I've been up and down NJ, and I've traveled to 42 out of 50 states, and I have to say this... The Saddle River Deli is the BEST!! George and Carol make a great team, their food is always fresh, and the prices are so reasonable. My favorite is the Classic Italian with Mayo, Jalapeños and Banana Peppers. Whether it's breakfast, a classic deli sandwich or a hot meal, these guys crush it every time! read more

5 stars. Immaculate independent deli with amazing food. They make a Great breakfast sandwich! They really do it all, like you can get an omelette or an Italian hero or have them make catering trays for a party! Prices are what you'd expect to pay for quality without being over charged. Tip = Popular with the lunch crowd so call your order in! Food tip= order their chicken cutlet because it's cooked to order and perfect! read more

Saddle River Deli - Outside restaurant - Delis Near Me - Saddle River, New Jersey

George has been the proprietor of this location for forever in a day. When you first walk in and you see the regulars hanging around the tables insulting one another, you know it's going to be a warm friendly place. Like many places, the food is handcrafted. No magic, just good ingredients and no surprises. Be careful at lunch, because the place gets packed with lots of locals, landscapers, and others. Unfortunately, staffing is a bit of an issue during lunch, so don't expect anything very quickly , I tend to go in the morning and get quick. Rarely what I go in for lunch to pick up, but their lunch options are excellent. There's a reason why they've been around for lots of lots of years, and I hope for the sake of everyone and the town, they stay more. read more

Many thanks to owner-operator George for letting us into the shop a few minutes after closing time. We were actually very hungry and thirsty, having traveled a distance to attend a wedding nearby. The ham and swiss cheese sandwiches prepared for us were fresh and delicious, as was the brownie. We had a great conversation with George, and he is clearly a business owner who cares about his patrons and is willing to go the extra mile! The fresh ground coffee smelled delectable - even with my nose shielded by a mask - I can only imagine how delicious it tastes. read more

Wonderful food, like-family experience. George and Carol, Jr, and staff are excellent. Enjoy!

Quite a gem! We were in town for a wedding and looking for breakfast. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn't open until 10 and we were ready to eat at 9, so we hopped over to the deli. On our Saturday visit, the spot had a good number of people, so good sign. It's a cute small business and very friendly. We were greeted immediately. We ordered, grabbed drinks, sat, and waited for the food before we paid. Most of us got bagels and devoured them. I did the two eggs plate, scrambled, with wheat. The hash brownies are seasoned and less fried and more pan cooked. I enjoyed that quite thoroughly. It was a solid, not greasy like a diner and definitely made with care. read more

My favorite place to breakfast and often lunch, where you can find a friendly face and some really good food. DONT be in a rush because a lot of other folk favor it too. #homecooking GO often and stay awhile the locals are a hoot. read more

Wow... I rushed into yelp to let people know that this place is legit! My coworkers and I left work for a quick lunch and we all left very satisfied! The food came out fast and so delicious, I devoured my turkey sandwich, my friend raved over and over about her beef gyro which she barely finished cause it was so big! As you can tell I'm very excited about this place, the fries were also very addicting and they were so generous with the amount they serve. Finally, the owner was soooo nice, he was around the restaurant, cleaning and greeting the customers. We even witnessed him giving a small child free cookies. Today's experience made me truly treasure local businesses and their owners. The only thing I would say needs improvement is the menu, there's a lot to order and you should come ready to order because servers are ready for your order. read more

My wife & I like to walk in a nearby park. So we always stop here when in the area. The food is top notch & the portions are generous. The prices are reasonable & the service is first rate. The couple running the business, whom I assume are husband & wife, are both very friendly & make you feel like an old friend. There are a few tables for you to sit & enjoy your delicious food, but most people get their food "to-go." The ambience is very friendly, while being fast & efficient. All in all, you get a very delicious meal at a good price, from very nice people. Well worth the experience. Give it a try, you'll be glad you did. read more

If yow want to be ignored and be late to work in the morning, this is the place for you. I stood there and was ignored. When the guy took another customer over me, because he knew her, I walked out the door. read more

Hands down, the best place to stop for food. Tons of options to choose from on the menu and the owner George is an awesome guy. Always has a smile on his face to welcome in his customers!!! read more

We ordered a sandwich platter with salads for a family visit this past weekend. George and his crew did a fantastic job of supplying us with a varity of delicious sandwiches, wraps and salads that had something to please everyone. The food was fresh, delicious and the presentation was excellent. We were very pleased and would highly reccomend the Saddle River Deli for any of your planned catering events. The quality food is Great and prices are resonable. George even threw in some of their delicious home made cookies for the kids. They were a big hit. We will not hesitate to place orders in the future look forward to doing so. Thank you, JS and RT read more

The delicious crispy chicken at Saddle River Deli makes the perfect chicken sandwich with fresh mozzarella, balsamic vinaigrette, lettuce, and a little salt and pepper! This is my go-to Deli! George and his team are great. Great salads, bagels, and cookies! You can't go wrong at Saddle River Deli! read more

I am a frequent visitor to this deli and I always love it! The menu is quite extensive. They have breakfast all day and really awesome coffee, including graham cracker coffee which is my favorite. The lunch menu is really extensive with really amazing salads and sandwiches and even a hot bar. I love the chop-chop salad and I highly recommend it. The salmon dishes are great too. The portions are on the generous side and the service is very friendly and they get to know your order if you come often. The owner George, is super friendly and will make you feel at home. There is also seating inside and outside, which is nice. Definitely check it out. read more

All the guys are very friendly BUT THE LADY IN THE FRONT WHO YOU PAY IS THE WORST. She talks with a bad attitude and she is racist when she knows your English is not perfect. I went twice and she was the same. She shouldn't be there but Indont know if she is the owner which is a shame. Food is good read more

Won't be coming back. Not only is it overpriced, but what I ordered was so incredibly bland I could have made it at home. I can't speak for the rest of the menu but the veggie wrap was gross- the veggies were simply grilled and rolled into a very basic wrap with little to no seasoning. No sauce added to save this either. The only thing saving this was the fresh mozzarella cheese which I took out separately to eat. I don't know how everything else tastes but these are restaurant prices for deli level food. read more

Never again! I vow to not go back but out of sheer convenience of location I stop in thankfully infrequently. The service is very poor borders on rude. My former visits were overpriced for deli sandwiches where meats are precut. This visit left us in line 35 minutes with five people in front of us and two counter people to work which should be sufficient except they were poorly organized and not working as a team. And why would you make to go orders before the customers waiting in store? Finally, we were asked to order and I requested a ham & Swiss on roll meats sliced thin, I was told that will take another twenty minutes! That is when we stormed out and I vow to you all NEVER EVER AGAIN. We ended up at Elmers & had a great lunch! The food quality much better for less money and the service was excellent. Although busy our wait from order to check out was less than 10 minutes. read more

Super lowkey place but I stopped in here randomly to try it out. So surprised because it was possibly one of the best breakfast wraps I've ever had (get the hobo wrap)! Great low prices for great food and the people who work there are super friendly. Check it out! read more

Been coming here for years. Solid wraps and some of the best sandwiches. They also make awesome salads.

I was up in the area for work I passed it and turned around to grab something to eat big selection on the menu all top shelf cold cuts coffee bar.

Owner is on premise working behind the counter very friendly staff. place was immaculate everything is wiped down everyone has masks on.. will definitely be back when I am in the area read more

Great Food - Great Service Have been there for breakfast and lunch and always very happy. The place is clean and the staff friendly and courteous. Excellent bagels in the morning and love the meatloaf on a roll with gravy. Highly recommended. read more

I found this deli on Yelp and I am so happy. Like others this place is amazing. A line if local workers in from cleaning gutters. The owner smiled and spoke to each one to make sure they got what they wanted. I had a great liverwurst sandwich. Rye bread red onion. Si many choices to go back and try. Hot plates and breakfast too. read more

I'm used to getting sub that are so heavily loaded with meat they are difficult to bite on. I got an Italian here and it had maybe two slices of ham and one salami. However, the slices were thick cut and for me this is not a negative as I usually take extra meat out. Also, the sub was very cheap so again no complaints here on the amount of cold cuts. As for the service, I was not greeted or anything like that but it did go pretty quick. I do wish they had a more organized way of waiting for a turn rather than standing around and waiting to be noticed. I also picked up a bag of chocolate chips cookies, which to my delight were a bit chewy. All in all I will be returning for lunch frequently. read more

I work in the hospitality and event planning industry so finding excellent customer service and a quality product are a must for me. I visited Saddle River Deli for a quick bite and was greeted by the staff immediately. I made special requests not on the menu and it was prepared exactly as I requested. The food was great and little did they know I was in search of a local caterer for my business needs. I secured them for my event based and could not have been happier with the food preparation, the presentation, food quality and freshness, and the overall experience. Most caterers expect you to know all of the answers before you order but he knew more about my potential guest requests than I did! The price was extremely reasonable and I plan on future events with the Saddle River Deli. I highly recommend stopping by for a quick bite to give it a try yourself!! read more

We stopped in this deli on our way up north and I'm so glad we crossed 3 lanes of traffic to not miss the exit! From the friendly service to the food, I wish there were more than 5 stars to give. My husband and I got salads..they are huge, and so fresh. Chicken fingers and fries for my 7 year old and he was in heaven! My other 2 kids got the BLT and a wrap and everything was just delicious they said. If you're looking for a place to hit for lunch on a road trip don't worry, this place will not disappoint! read more

We were visiting the area and used Yelp to help locate a great Deli. Saddle River Deli exceeded our expectations!!! Get the Chicken Parm sub! It was recommended by a nice lady behind the counter... it was super yummy, freshly made, piping hot, just the right amount of sauce and cheese. Sorry I did not snap a picture. read more

This place is conveniently located next to a work location. A lot of people go there for lunch, so this review will be based solely on that. Although I do hear good things about their breakfast selections. It's a deli, so there's not much to get excited about. However, they do have daily selections on their hot menu that change. I would probably give this a better review except for the staff. Some of them are grumpy, don't seem to care, take forever to make things. They also have a knack for running out of different types of bread. I understand the lunch rush but this was well after that when it comes to speed of service. Especially since there were only four of us in the joint and eight people working. The cashier has their respective moments, from not acknowledging customers, to being too busy eating their lunch behind the counter. In all, good food, just don't expect quality service and be ready to wait. Hopefully your experiences will differ! read more

I love this place! I work near by at a salon and we order all the time from this Deli! I always get the bread chicken caesar wrap! The breaded chicken is amazing! The owner is such a great guy too! Always so pleasant in the phone! read more

Saddle River Deli - Bread Chicken Caesar Wrap! - Delis Near Me - Saddle River, New Jersey

Worst ever. A bunch of older folks who are clueless as to how to run a business. Stopped in and waited like 10-15 minutes. Another guy walks in talking on his phone and they ask if they can help him almost immediately. Never again. read more

I wish I could give this deli a 10 star review! My colleague and I were in near here for business and stopped here to grab some dinner for our drive home back to MA. Not only were the people that worked here incredibly warm, hospitable, and funny, but they made the greatest wrap I've ever had! PACKED with quality meat and cheese (Boar's Head!), crisp fresh veggies, and made perfectly. My colleague got a salad that was absolutely massive and contained so many veggies it was like a work of art! All of this quality food including drinks and sides came to just about $10 each. Amazing! I wish this deli was back at home, I would come here ever day. Do your self a favor and try this place for yourself! You will not be disappointed. read more
