If I could give a no star rating I would due to their awful customer service. I have been going to this deli for 20+ years. Food is good but I can't look past the ignorant older women and owner. I either witness them being ignorant to another customer or I'm the brunt of their rudeness. In the last couple years customer service has taken a bad turn. They treat their patrons as if we are privileged to purchase their food. Foods good but it's not that good!! Good food plus ignorant people, not worthy of one of my hard earned pennies. We have many options in the area so we will be taking our business elsewhere. Good luck keeping a mom and pop shop afloat with those crappy attitudes!! If the old bags don't want to work anymore wish they would just hang it up and retire. read more

I normally have nothing but good things to say about this place, my daughter calls me a Villa Deli groupie. I had a bad experience today with a sandwich order. I eat here a lot for both lunch and take out family dinners. Today I ordered a Tuna and provolone hoagie and when I got home I found they had made me a Turkey and provolone hoagie. In itself, not the end of the world, it's just the poor response I got when I called to tell them of their mistake. I asked if they could give me Some kind of a discount on my next order. I was told I must bring the sandwich that was made incorrectly back to them. I live 40 minutes(round trip) so for today's lunch, I would have logged 1hour and 10 minutes of driving time. I told them I couldn't bring it back because of the distance and I was told "there is nothing we can do for you without having the original sandwich returned". Is this how you treat regular customers that travel 40 minutes a couple of times per week just to be your customer. read more

Villa Deli has an amazing selection of every type of food you can imagine. They have different lunch and dinner specials each day of the week. They're open every day until pretty late (6pm on Sundays but 8pm every other day of the week). I love coming here with my picky 9 year old daughter because no matter what she says she is in the mood for, they have! I really enjoyed their Thursday Prime Rib Dinner (w/two sides) Special ($15) one evening when I was craving a home-cooked type of meal and not my usual cheese steak or Italian hoagie. The girls from my work order from Villa Deli religiously every single Friday and have been for years. I've lived in Sicklerville for years and just recently discovered Villa Deli in the past year (no clue how it got by me all of this time!). I'm looking forward to trying some of their other lunch/dinner options that I've heard are delish (fried chicken, pot pie, and tuna sandwiches, to name a few)! read more

I booked Villa Deli offsite catering for my wedding in Stone Harbor on 6/5/21, and it was the best decision ever! The staff was amazing and the food was absolutely delicious. We received so many compliments about how excellent the food tasted from our guests! I had such a difficult time booking an affordable caterer for this venue, and Tina agreed to it right away without hesitation. I am so thankful to Villa Deli and the Brigalia's staff, as they truly helped to make my wedding perfect! I will be using them for all future catering needs! read more

Will not be ordering from here EVER again. First of all I don't like how the speak to certain people. I'm going to leave that at that. Also I ordered two hoagies yesterday and when I got him they were not what I ordered. When I called to inform them, I was told "well we are closed". The hoagies were NASTY might I add. I will save my money and take it to Verchios which was my first choice!! read more

My mind is blown about the ignorance of this facility. I do not live in NJ but I use to. A very good friend passed away and I wanted to simply order food. I gave specific instructions to them that my niece was picking up the food. I gave them my name, my phone number, and my credit card. When she arrived, she was told that the food was already picked up. They claim they used my nieces name, which is a lie! Yes, the sister of the deceased picked up the food. Instead of a Villa Deli employee simply contacting me about this confusion they chose to humiliate my niece in front of customers and treat her like a scammer, insisting she go in a room on speaker phone to talk to the manager, apparently their manager was not on site. I am embarrassed & my niece is embarrassed. DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THEM AND EXPECT TO BE TREATED LIKE A VALUABLE CUSTOMER! read more

I have been going here for over 20 years and their products have always been top notch! For me, taking a step into the Villa Deli is like going back in time to my child hood. Their cheese steaks and chicken cheese steaks are simply delicious. They have a great deli and tasty snacks. It is a local favorite. From time to time, the service is not 100% friendly, but with the busy crowds they get... can you really blame them? I guess they are as friendly as one can be under these tensions. I really like their fried chicken specials, chicken pot pie specials, and prime rib specials. Their hoagies are also top notch. If you have not been here, don't even think twice and just go!! They are one of the best local places in town for some delicious foods. I won't say healthy, but definitely good! Very good variety. read more

My friends from work were saying how wonderful this deli was. I went, prices were very fair and I was so excited about the variety of food. I am willing to pay the expensive prices of the other delis just so I don't have to experience the mean women working there. The very first second we walked in the employees were arguing with each other. I can deal with that, it's the utter rudeness and the eye rolling when I ask for a lb of cheese. Then the counter lady, where do I begin . Just so rude it bothers me when businesses act like they are doing us a favor!!! read more

I've been coming here since I was a kid. We always got our parties catered through Villa Deli. Unfortunately I loved since but my family still uses them. Their sandwiches (hoagies) are amazing!!! read more

We're ne to the neighborhood and after asking around this deli was mentioned. The people are rude and very unfriendly. After second and third tries we gave up. They can't slice cold cuts as requested. We'd rather go to the local supermarket. read more

Historically, this place has had good food and service, so, I wanted a good sandwich tonight. While checking the menu another customer asked what smelled so good, same thing I was thinking. The response she gave this customer was very rude, unprofessional, and uncalled for; so, due to the bad service, I left. I will not return. I felt uncomfortable for her. I think she already paid, but she also was embarrassed and wanted to leave. I will tell any and everyone that wants to hear, not to spend their money at this establishment. It's sad because this is the only place that has fresh lunch meat. My family has used their catering. So there is a history here. read more

This review is in reference to the Catering business Villa Catering/Hall: This Saturday, my family had an event at this venue. The air conditioning did not sufficiently cool the hall. Needless to say, our guests (including the guests of honor mother and father to be) were dripping sweat and completely uncomfortable. We all suffered through with a smile, including their two catering staff who graciously sacrificed their box fan that they had in the kitchen to some of our guests. However, when my mother asked for compensation for the discomfort (discount on the thousand plus she spent on this venue), we were told there was nothing they could do for us. They said the air conditioning units (which were residential units not commercial) were battling the heat. I just want the owner of this venue to know that my boyfriend was made physically ill by the conditions in this venue. When we returned home he threw up and had to sip water and sit directly in front of the AC unit to get back to normal. We had elderly and children in these conditions as well. PLEASE replace your three residential units as soon as you can. Be advised if you have an event schedule at this venue for the summer, you will probably be extremely uncomfortable! My mothers comments from my Facebook review: I have to agree. I received other calls from family who stated they felt over heated and stayed as long as they could. They graciously said it wasn't our fault and otherwise had a good time. But there was no dancing. My brother had to leave early because he was not feeling well and other people were trying to get through. I saw another family member with an ice pack on his neck. Could the cater not have known the air wasn't working properly and moved us to their newer facility? This is our first grandchild and we wanted this to be a joyful memorable moment. I am sadden that my guests had to suffer in this manner. Yes we ate and took food home but that is what we paid for. What we did not receive was a comfortable air conditioned venue which without saying should have come with the price. read more

Very nice place to order simple and quick meals. I ordered mozzarella sticks and cheesesteak. It was made quickly and there always seems to be a big crowd here at night. They make great food. read more

Villa deli has a wide variety of prepared foods and catering items. The food is very good and I have never been disappointed by a meal. The biggest issue with Villa deli is any person I have ever encountered working here is absolutely MISERABLE!! There is zero customer service and you are almost made to feel like you are inconveniencing them....it's your job!! It doesn't take much to put a smile on your face and have some fun with your customers. I hope management seriously addresses this because the negative treatment of the customer will dissuade myself and my co-workers to no longer frequent their establishment. read more

Excellent food. The roasted pork was not quite the same caliber as Lenny's in Conshy, but they provide a wide array of really good food and desserts that won't break the wallet. Everything is made to order, hot, and fantastic. This place made it to the top of my list for a good sandwich in the region. Also, their fries are absolutely fantastic and it's a full order not a wimpy side order. Best cheesesteak for the region too, they have weekly specials including a crab cake and coleslaw special. They have a deli that is a very good value compared to most supermarkets, this place is absolutely outstanding for the area. The only strange thing is the chaos around the cash register since that's also the place you give food orders, and there's nowhere else to wait for food than to hang around. A minor inconvenience for a stellar deli. read more

This is a very nice place. The room in the back for parties is very nice. The gold decor makes it looks very rich looking. Had a small bar, decent dance floor and they cater the food as well. There a spot for the DJ to set up and play the tunes you enjoy.. If you're planning a birthday party, sweet 16, graduation party etc this would be a very good place to have it The staff is friendly and keeps things moving well. read more

We stopped by here Sunday afternoon before heading to the shore because of the reviews on Yelp. We definitely beat the crowd but we still had to wait almost an hour to get our food. The boyfriend got the chicken cordon bleu sub and I got the bacon and turkey flatbread with a side salad. Everything was delicious. The side salad was actually a regular salad. It was huge, so I was able to make two meals out of it. Everything was cheap. Our total was $20 for everything. We will definitely be calling ahead next time to place our order. I cannot wait to try more things on the menu! read more

Attended event catered by Villa. Would not use for my own event. Why aren't plates included in cost of catering?? And entre was very late getting delivered to venue. Just not what I expected. read more

Ah the deli. Best cheesesteak in Jersey. Salads are great but don't forget the dressing. Nice clean place been eating there since vitos pizza house. Never had anything bad here. read more

See all

LOVE IT! Best deli meats and salads. Homemade foods taste like home. Eat and enjoy! read more

Can't leave a negative star. The manager is unprofessional, disrespectful, and just downright rude. There's no excuse for refusing to speak to a customer who is rightly disappointed by waiting an hour and a half for food and then degrading and disrespecting the customer when they politely ask for fresher food that isn't ice cold. This establishment should be embarrassed by her behavior. read more

The lady who answers the phone is EXTREMELY rude. She hung up on me twice when I wasn't done ordering. I did curbside pick up they told me it would be 20 minutes I waited 55 minutes for my food. Hoagies were good but my fries were cold read more

I have never had anything from here that I did not love!!! The pot pies on Thursday's are my favorite!!

Horrible customer service. The lady who runs the place should be ashamed. Orders wrong, never an apology or offer to make it right. Ignorance over the phone and in person. Forget this place, go to Trim-Rite or literally anywhere else. read more

Wow! I love this place. I can't have a party without including something from Villa Deli. Everything from the fried chicken to the fresh rolls makes this place a true diamond. Their crab balls are always on my table for Xmas eve, I don't mind waiting for quality read more

I rented their small banquet room. Had a surprise 30th birthday party for my daughter. (March 1, 2020). All I can say is WOW!!!!! This place was FANTASTIC. When I got there, every thing was ready for me to do my decorating. It was very clean and the staff was very helpful. When people started arriving they were blown away. Out of 75 people there were maybe 20 that knew of this gem. Let me tell you EVERYONE was greatly impressed. The food was wonderful. Even my picky SIL went nuts over the chicken parmesan. The roast beef was a real crowd pleaser as well. I just can't say enough good things about this venue. I will def be using them again and again. Keep up the great job!!!!! read more

This has been my go to deli for years. Not much has changed except for their appearance. Hoagies are the best around. Hot foods are delicious too. Everything is priced just right. You really can't go wrong with placing an order here. Give them some time because they are generally busy. Call a head to save time or head in if you have some other items to shop for. Either way not much else to say about a top notch local deli. read more

I ordered catering package from recommendations. They were right. The deli and accessory trays were tastefully done. The salads were very good. especially the cole slaw. I definitely will order again for any my parties. read more

My go to order is chicken fingers and fries. They are delicious. everyone there is close with my family and they are super kind. their food is very tasty and i really like their honey mustard. 10/10. i wish i could give this place a million stars read more

The food is sub par, but it's nothing compared to the horrendous customer service. They're always extremely rude and dismissive, and they've never had my order ready on time. I stopped going here a long time ago. I tried it again recently in a pinch and nothing has changed. read more

Absolutely delicious take out sandwiches and salads. I've also been to a wedding catered by Villa and the food was top notch! Highly recommended! read more

The food is great. The service is not. Unless I buy something straight out of the cold case, I have an issue with my order every time I go. The ladies behind the deli counter seem like they hate deli counters almost as much as they hate customers, but they slice and wrap cold cuts like nobody's business. Whether or not they are the right cold cuts, however, is completely up to you. No one will ask you anything besides "Who's next?" and "Anything else?" If there is any confusion with your order, you won't know about it because they'll just make whatever they think you want. Everything they make is delicious and reasonably priced and that is what keeps me coming back. The lunch specials are great and cheap but you have to make sure you tell them exactly what you want because at lunch time, they have no time to clarify your request. read more

Amazing food...horrendous service...I ordered the shrimp platter and I must say that the shrimp was fresh, jumbo and hot. The platter came with a salad, bread and fries...I couldn't eat it all..now to the service. The employees looked unhappy to work there and were speaking harshly to the customer s and their peers. One woman rolled her eyes right in the customers face after they placed an order..it was the worst display of poor behavior. The cashier was nice but took forever to ring up people the line was extremely long...so while I waited I surveyed the deli, it was nice with fair prices and food was very fresh...the Caesar salads were a bountiful size with loads of chicken...they also had fresh chicken wings, salad , pasta salads and pizza...I would order and then pick up don't stay too long to witness the poor customer service! read more

This is my new go-to deli. Staff is friendly and always greets you. There's many homemade and pre-made items to buy as well as chips and snacks like a little mart. They have great prices for my favorite deli cheese and great prices for ground sirloin. Love this place! read more

Best Cheesesteak in the area hands down. Not greasy.. just tasty.

I love the deli, everything is always fresh. I especially the lunch meat and and fresh salads. The daily dinner specials are affordable and delicious read more

Well known for their cheesesteaks and hoagies. The place is little and cramped- kinda like an Italian hoagie place in the city- totally worth it for the food though. Order from here and be the hero the "made" the best dinner ever. My suggestion- CALL AHEAD. read more

Pretty much the same food every week. I liked it at first, but it's gotten old. Good for an occasional fast and hot meal, but not too impressed. read more

My family and I have been getting food from Villa Deli since I was a child. I recently had my 30th birthday party catered by them and received endless compliments from guests about how delicious the food was. Tina helped me create a custom menu to my liking, and even when it came to the fairly simple things like chicken tenders, mac and cheese, cheesesteaks, wings, and sausage and peppers, people were still telling me days later how much they enjoyed it. Everything is home made with love and you can taste the difference. Our server was experienced and professional, and having her there to set up and help break down allowed me to enjoy the party and my guests instead of worry about the food. Would highly recommend this local gem, they can't be beat. read more

Great family run deli- love the new expanded ready to eat meals and snacks! There's also a new buffet section, at least I think it's new, where you can get hot plates of food for dinner or lunch. Check out the deal posted on the lunch meat display for some nice lunch specials! read more
