Good little sub shack close to me. Good for large appetites .... I split a steak sandwich with a friend and it ran me about $12 for the large. I really liked that the woman who prepped the sandwich chopped all the veggies in front of me. There could have been more meat, but it was definitely satisfying Very nice staff and a pretty decent parking lot next to it. I also liked the couch in the middle of the room, where presumably, locals can hang, I will go back for the tuna, which I got a taste of and it was good. read more

Sarges is great, they make the best sandwiches in the area. The only problem recently they have a young girl working making the sandwiches. She is not good at making sandwiches and is relatively cheap with ingredients. Nice girl, but I'm now starting to not order when i see her behind the counter. They should put her as cashier or doing something else. The interior is really cool with a bunch of marines, military things. They have a few tables and a couch with tv. I prefer to take out though than to eat in. read more

We ordered from Sarge's last night via EAT24 for the first time and while the food was decent and sort of reminded me or real subs back in the Philly/DE area the value was seriously lacking. The entry level pricing is very inexpensive but upon further inspection you find out that that pricing is for a "mini" and that the regular costs about 60% more. We opted for the regular since we were planning for a dinner portion but when the order arrived (30 minutes late) the regular size was only about 6" long with a modest amount of toppings. After finishing my "snack" I perished the menu one more time and saw that the giant size, which I would imagine is closer to a normal size sub, priced out at more than 40% higher than the regular. The neighborhood really was lacking a classic sub shop but based on this experience it's unlikely that I'll add Sarge's in to my regular rotation. read more

I tried this place for the first time today and got the tuna melt. The sandwich was simply delicious with the best ingredients. I will definitely come here again. The staff was very friendly and while we were dining in the owner came to check if we liked the subs. Highly recommend this place. read more

The food can be hit or miss, depending on what you order. I had a cold sub, and liked that the meats and cheese were all sliced fresh. The bread was really nothing great, and maybe even a little disappointing. Toppings were generously applied, but the shredded lettuce was already browning. My husband had the chicken parm sandwich, and wasn't impressed. The chicken is like those little frozen patties, not fresh made. He did enjoy the cheese though, and thought it was the best part of the sandwich. The ladies working were really nice and friendly, and seemed to genuinely enjoy their job and take pride in their work. The interior seemed comfortable and inviting, definitely a place I'd sit at and eat. Overall, I'd go back, but it's definitely not my favorite place. read more

I truly hate when good service comes with suspect food. It simply shouldn't exist. Enough with the small talk, I'm not one for cold heroes, my thing is cheesesteaks. Having one from here makes me want to become a vegetarian, that's how tasteless and unattractive their cheesesteak is. Following in the unfortunate tradition of Subway and Blimpie, they use a convection oven to prepare their steaks. I don't know why I was expecting them to use an open grill top. Silly me and my high hopes...I asked for the disappointment, I know. Three minutes later and grayish semi-cooked strips of what's supposed to be steak comes out on a hot plate. Then onions, peppers and cheese are added to the hot plate and back into the oven the steaks go for another minute or two. What comes next is a mess of gooey, rubbery, gray-colored gamey meat on a hero. Passing this off as a legit cheesesteak sandwich is embarrassing if not insulting. I'm stopping short of giving this spot one star because the service was great and the folks were friendly. And their condiments counter was lush with fresh fixings, ripe red tomatoes and all. Therefore had I ordered a cold hero, my impression of this place might've been different. Except, I don't dig cold heroes. read more

Seriously the best sandwiches around! They aren't flimsy like chain places. They make a real sub hero! Their chili is hearty and filling especially on cold days and what else can you say about a place that also makes their own sodas. Very large delivery area and friendly staffing. I need one closer to my home and not just my office! read more

Delicious subs! Lovely owner and employees. The sandwich never disappoints. I'm a sandwich lover and this place makes a nice sub! For a great price too! read more

Ordered an Italian and wow, it was amazing!!!! Big and stuffed! Also ordered the garlic parm wings and they didnt dissapoint! My new fav place!! read more

Catered them for a birthday brunch and they were great! Even let us pick up not during normal business hours! Food was delicious and Peter is so so nice and helpful! Will definitely be ordering for all my parties in the future! read more

Just moved to the Area and I have been disappointed and many delivery places. This place has Great SUBS. They are big and fill you up. This is my new Sub shop to visit from now on. Thanks! read more

Service with a smile! Best for cold subs and sides - the ambiance is unique. Memorabilia on the walls really show how much love has been put into this business. Delivery is sometimes slow. read more

Terrible. The bread is stale perhaps sitting for more than 7 days. Barely any meat and cheese. Capicola taste like baloney. Overall everything is not fresh because they do not get traffic, the ingredients sit around for a good amount of time. Northern jersey needs a tastee sub shop or even jersey mikes. On top of that, they support wounded warriors whose CEO rides a horse into his office. read more

Don't waste your hard earned money.... It's expensive and they treat you like you're doing them a favor. Something seriously wrong with some of the people there. read more

Best!! They are so nice there and the subs are sooo good. My boyfriend and I love it so much we eat it probably at least once a week!

I don't write a lot of reviews but I needed to write one here because I have so many complicated feelings about Sarge's. On the one hand Sarge has some of the best sandwiches in the tri-state area but on the other hand I feel I was deceived because Sarge is not a real veteran. The good: After my first Sarge sub my mouth watered for days and I yearned for the next time I would be able to taste another. The sandwiches are high quality, not like the fake junk you get at Blimpie or Subway. This is the real deal! The place is clean and I really enjoy the seating area with comfy leather couches. It's a great place for a date if you want to do dinner and a movie. They don't serve alcohol so you have to sneak that in and drink in the bathroom, but they do have their own brand of delicious sodas. The memorabilia on the walls is almost like a historical war museum which is really cool. I've actually learned a lot about war from just hanging out there. And if you don't have the time to dine in, the delivery is really fast and sometimes Sarge even brings it himself. The bad: I started going there because I like to support businesses owned by veterans but I've come to find out that Sarge has never actually served. This really disappointed me because I really thought my money was going to an American hero. He does donate money to Wounded Warriors so at least it still helps veterans but I was still sad to find out Sarge never dressed in the red white and blue. The sandwiches all have military themed names which is awesome but hoping he adds a "Don't ask, Don't tell" sandwich to the menu to represent my LGBTQ brothers and sisters. All in all I have to highly recommend this place. You won't find a better sub in the tri-state area. read more

Just ordered delivery and they listened to all the comments added and packed everything neatly in a box for delivery! Delivery man was very nice and wearing a face covering! Subs are delicious, the deli meat tastes better than other sub joints! Mac salad and potato salad were bomb also! I ordered on seamless but now realizing they are taking so much from these local businesses I WILL BE ORDERING OKNE FROM SARGES' WEBSITE. read more

I just went to pick up a sandwichand was not happy at all! Not only did he forget to put turkey in my sandwich he barely put any of the other coldcuts i asked for sandwich tasted bland also left out the vinegar .. and honestly for the 13 dollars and change i paid for it , wasnt worth it at all!!! In comparison to my first experience it was a totally different one this time and he also didnt have a mask on !!! read more

They really got to stop using stale bread, and put some cold cuts on the sandwich. It was weak

Not sure why more people don't love this place!! The owner is very sweet and attentive. The bread is definitely baked fresh and the veggies are fresh as well. Ever since my first visit a couple of weeks ago, I've been back almost weekly. This place is a gem! Great place for lunch, definitely recommend it! read more

The first few times I have ordered, I had no issues. However, the last time I ordered my food took over an hour. When I called no real solution was giving besides, "Sorry, they will be there soon." read more

You know a shop that sells sandwiches is bad when you'd rather eat a sandwich from subway. Unfortunately, this is the case with Sarge's Subs. The chicken on my chicken parm sub was just a premade, frozen, out of the box filet. It wasn't even warmed thoroughly and still cold in the center. The bread was stale. The marinara sauce and cheese were also gross. $6.75 for a small cold piece of chicken with cheese and sauce on stale bread with no toppings? Makes me miss the $5 Subway foot longs. read more

Sarge's Subs - Flyboy Fancy Sub. Would not recommend this chicken parm. - Sandwiches Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

With an already crowded field comprising Subway, Blimpie and Subz Up, this new sub shop in Cliffside Park NJ should amaze to survive. Sadly this one fails to do that on any level. With its subs at about twice the price of the competitors and lack of bread choices (only 2) they certainly need to up-their-game if they want to compete. It appears that they spent all their time working on the cutesy menu (different roles in the military) but failed to actually bring any good, quality ingredients through the door of this Palisade ave eatery in Cliffside Park NJ. Fresh baked bread and locally cooked chicken would have been a start. Take a walk into one of the other sandwich shops( like Subway on River Road) and figure out what they do well. Then one-up them by making the experience and product better and fun - Not a hard concept, but it does take guts. This place is like a thousand other failed Italian sub shops, that time has passed by, except this is a new establishment where dozens of other businesses have failed. When the local high school is out for the day , this place fills up with kids, but no one is actually eating their food, which is a poor sign. The couches are a nice touch, but I think you have taken the wrong things from the Starbucks model. The couch has to be a magnet for the clientele that you WANT to attract. Word to the owners: - Ditch the high-schoolers. - Clean up the counter. - Let the customers see the sub being made (get all the crap off the counter) - Clean up the decor - clean and simple works the best. - Light the counter properly - LED lighting brings out the natural colors in food. - Bring in some good, fresh ingredients - Give more bread options - Provide and market premium coffee - or give the crap stuff away for free to customers - Charge appropriately - if its double Blimpie then you better have a story to tell why. Nice job on having ample parking though, its always hard to park on Palisades Ave. Good luck. read more

I come to this place for lunch all the time. This place makes good sandwiches. Place is clean and the service is great. If you are a student they do have lunch specials. Also they give u a card and you get a free sandwich every 10 visits. read more

Stopped by once for a cold sub, and it was tasty. I have no complaints. The concept is cute too, and I like the décor. Other places didn't last n this location. Really hoping this one will! read more

The first time I ordered for delivery, I thought it was decent but the cole slaw and potato salad was very gelatinous and old, but the italian sandwich was good. So the next time, I decided to walk over and try the Chicken Parmigiana. After ordering, I saw the guy pull the chicken cutlet out of the fridge, threw it in the microwave, then put some canned sauce on. Was shocked cause I would've thought the chicken would've been fresher or at least even thrown in a fryer or something... It was really disappointing; especially for the price. You might as well just go to the dirty Blimpies right around the corner and get the same level of food quality and dining cleanliness. I guess that's why I get for actually seeing how things are made when I typically order for delivery... sigh... read more

Stopped here after a really bad experience with a local sub shop. The food was on point. $24 for two giant "The Sarge" italian subs WITH 4 sodas and 4 chips. The owner was very friendly and polite. It is ok if the price is a bit high if you are getting fresh quality ingredients. I will continue to order here. Thank you. read more

I noticed this new sub shop opened up a few weeks ago when I was driving by so I decided to stop in today. On their menu is a selection of hot and cold subs available in mini, regular, and large sizes and also salads. I ordered their signature 'Sarge's' sub, which is basically your typical italian combo and I have to say I was impressed! You can tell that the owner has made it a priority to focus on quality ingredients. He even offered a sharp provolone instead of the regular (which I gladly accepted) and it gave the sandwich a nice bite. They have a selection of fresh toppings for you to choose from (hot cherry peppers for the win!) for no extra charge. I hope this place sticks because there aren't many places in the area to get a decent sub. To get to 5 stars, I would suggest they change their bread to something a little fresher and crustier (maybe with seeds) and to offer raw red onion instead of yellow/white for their toppings (they are little sweeter and less onioney). I'm happy to see that they offer delivery ($10 min) and it looks like they will be taking credit cards (cash only for now until its set up) read more

Sarge's Subs - "The Sarge" ham, salami, pepperoni, capicola, provolone - Sandwiches Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

Class acts. Walked in during a blackout and they still served me a great sub. The concept honoring veterans is heartfelt and executed well. It's like hanging with good friends in a military museum. read more

Great sandwiches here! I've ordered from here 3 times now and each time the food was delicious. I have no complaints about them! Our orders were always correct and the delivery person was always nice. Will most likely order again from them in the future. read more

Went there once. I have to say very friendly people at the counter. Now for the sub, not too friendly. I ordered meatball parm hero. Oh no,,,,,very stale tasting sauce and very gamey and not fresh meatballs. I have not gone back since. read more

When you are in the mood for good old subs for delivery..... here is the place. Just had my first order. Respectful , knowledgeable person answered the phone... we got a delicious tuna sub with everything on whole wheat reminiscent of old times and a perfect chicken parm on toasted whole wheat bread. Carefully packaged and delivered timely. Writing this is making us order again as we speak..... read more

I've been here several times and I have no real complaints. The owners are the sweetest and the salads and sandwiches always hit the spot. I think the prices are higher than say, Subway or Blimpie, but I also think the food tastes better. And we all know you get what you pay for. read more

Ordered delivery for lunch today. They came on time, were very friendly and got the order right. Prices are fair. I had a cold sub with turkey, ham, Swiss, LTO, oil&vinegar. The cold cuts were really good. Bread was just okay. I'd order again to try the chili and maybe a panini. Def way better than subway, but not the best. read more

Convenient, yes- friendly service, yes- sandwiches, just okay. It was a step above subway and prices were very good. Everything was fresh. I would return when in the area. read more

I usually come here at least twice a week and normally I am very happy with my sub but lately it hasn't been fresh and it's very upsetting.

I salute Sarge's! It's NO subway sandwich on a hot dog roll and no pizza joint sub made with the cheapest meats available! What is it? It's a great new lunch spot and a standout among the various other local options. I suspect I will change this review to 5 Stars when I try the hot side of the menu but for now Sarge's gets a solid 4 stars. A clean and inviting atmosphere with friendly staff and most importantly great subs made from fresh, quality ingredients at a fair price. Daily specials and delivery too! read more

This joint rocks, amici. The sandwiches are GREAT (Boar's head meants!) and the service is top shelf ... the people behind the counter are always courteous and helpful (they truly do go the extra mile) and the Sarge ... well, he's the best. Support the troops and your local businesses! Go get a sandwich today! read more

Just had lunch today, the food was excellent. The people were very welcoming and friendly I will definitely be coming back and adding to my favorite places. read more
