“I was in the area and decided to stop in for a sub. My bf has been coming here for years and swears by this deli as one of the best around.This mom and pop deli is not much to look at from the outside.They have free parking out front with several spots they share with another business.Once inside you can see why they call this place The Parsippany Deli/ Emerald Gifts aka The Irish Deli.As soon as you walk in the front door, they have a glass counter that displays beautiful China from Ireland. They sell teas, marmalade, sausages, bacon, black and white pudding, Irish candies, also Brennan's bread.During the month of March they make and sell homemade Irish Soda Bread.As you make your way to the front counter you will meet owner Eddie, and Avril. They were both very friendly and told me about their business. Posted on the counter is their sandwich and salad menus.The Parsippany deli/Emerald gifts has been in business for 50 years, now I know why. Their prices are reasonable, and everything is homemade. They also do catering.They roast all their own meats like Roast Beef, Turkey Breast, and Baked Virginia Ham. I highly suggest getting a half of a sub. It’s as big as most whole subs.This place doesn’t skimp on their meats, just the opposite.When I got home and opened up my sub I was pleasantly surprised, and couldn’t believe how much meat was on it. It was probably one of the best Italian subs I’ve ever had and I’ve been all over for subs.I ordered their Italian Sub - Ham, Salami, Capocollo they call it Hot Ham, and Cheese. I got mine with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo, oil and vinegar. It was really delicious. I wound up eating a half of a half and saved the rest for later.My bf ordered their Roast Beef n American Cheese Sub. The Roast Beef was cooked perfectly rare and piled on the sandwich with lettuce, tomato, oil and vinegar. He enjoyed it so much he ate the entire thing.I also ordered 2 of their homemade salads. Macaroni and Potato Salad. The macaroni was my favorite. It was rich and creamy.I highly recommend this place, you won’t be disappointedParking: They share the spaces with another business. It doesn’t seem to be a problem to park“
“Great little shop with the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had...keilbasa and egg on a kaiser. Roll is fresh and soft and the keilbasa is crisped nicely and so flavorful. Friendly service and fair pricing. Need to come back for lunch/dinner one day.“
“This place came highly recommended by a co-worker and it did not disappoint. This place is in the top 5 in the surrounding Essex and Morris county region. Try their subs and prove me wrong.Parking: Make sure to park in the right parking lot.“
“Super nice ladies working there. I came in right before close and didn't want to make them do anything whole they were cleaning up but they insisted I order something and did not mind one bit. Got the potato/cheddar and Philly cheese steak pierogi. Both were fantastic!Store is super clean with a bunch of great snacks you can't find anywhere else. I'll be stopping back in for sure!“
“When they say simple is the best, this place hits the mark. Ordered a bacon, egg, cheese bagel and a regular ham/salami cheese sandwhich. Both were great, simple, good ingredients, pefect proportions, and prices were affordable as well. People inside were kind and helpful. Would definitely recommend.“
“Best Taylor ham egg and cheese around. I told the owner I traveled 3,000 miles to try this place. He said if you don't like it for whatever reason, we'll make it again! The service was excellent and classic Jersey vibes. I will come here again when I visit town. I highly recommend this place.“
“I've been wanting to come here for so long, and for my Morris county friends who grew up in the Italian triangle (Belleville Bloomfield nutley) this is the best kept secret. This is the real deal, they even have nastos desserts from Newark. Super happy to order Easter pies from here and they stock my beloved San bernadetto iced tea! Owner and his family are super sweet and friendly.“
“This little local spot is a gem. Family owned. Small, worn in a good way. Counter seating. All made here. Super reasonable pricing.Very friendly staff and management.I had an eggplant sandwich on a roll. This was a long roll and could have easily fed two. What a great little spot!“
“I've been here for a year, and just now do I discovered this most amazing Italian Deli.(Only 2.5 miles from my hotel)The owner SAl was Incredibly cordial and extremely hospitable apon my entering the store, he could pretty much tell I wasn't sure about what I wanted and offered me some samples and answered all my questions, so helpful.( I say customer service is not dead. You just need to go to the right joints )Everything looked so amazing. I decided on trying three sandwiches.1. Chicken parm. ( Incredible Delicious)2. Meatball Parm. ( Super Delicious as well)3. Pastrami on Rye. ( For tomorrow )4 Tiramisu. ( Dessert )5. Vanilla Cream SodaEverything was perfect!!!Hands down the best deli I've found in New Jersey since I've been here.All in all, I had an incredible experience at this Italian Deli! From Sal's hospitality to the delicious sandwiches and desserts, it seems like I've found a gem.It's great to know that customer service is alive and well at this spot in New Jersey!“
“I love coming to this deli. Sonia always greets me when I walk through the door and remembering what I love to have the Taylor ham egg and cheese on a roll nothing on it. I went enough times to adj for just my usual and it's so respectful and enjoyable to hear them remember you and what you love to eat. The prices have kept inching up over the months, but I loved coming here now and then to keep enjoying my favorite sandwiches and supporting this friendly and wonderful business. This place went through 2 owner changes before it was stephs deli. Overall whenever I'll go to school or work and I need a quick breakfast I'll turn to stephs deli. Thank you my friends!!“
“Let me start off by saying I grew up in Philadelphia and ate cheesesteaks regularly ever since I was quite young. I know these folks here are known for their “best of NJ” Taylor Ham ;not pork roll ( almost forgot where I was) and cheese. I’ve had it here before and I do believe it is incredible and stands up to the claims. However… the cheesesteak they make here may not be getting enough love. You should consider it and understand that it could put up a fight with some of the best in Philly. 10/10. Would order again, and again … and again. Also, the guys here are great to chat with.“
“The food was fresh, sandwiches were fresh, and the big ? price was well worth the freshness. I will definitely go back. So I had to go back to try their breakfast, and it definitely didn't disappoint bacon egg and cheese. Look at this big, beautiful sandwich.“
“Very good place to grab breakfast or lunch. I came across this place many years ago when doing service calls in the area. New owner is very attentive and his staff is friendly and fast at taking your order. The quality of the food is the same as it has been in the “
“I would always get a chicken soprano with double meat. Al knew exactly how I Wanted it. I would put a twist on it. I would always get chicken cutlets with fresh mozzarella and roasted peppers, balsamic vinegar, lots of bacon and prosciutto❤️Parking: It's on the street and if you get lucky and get a spot you're good“
“My wife and I were looking to get our reception party catered. After the first attempt at one deli, we decided to look elsewhere and stumbled upon Summit and Main. We are so glad we did. From the day of ordering to pick up everything went smooth. My wife and mother in law were sat down and went over menu, and all of our questions were answered. They suggested their best sellers and how much of everything to order. Everything was a hit and everyone loved the food. We can not recommend Summit and Main enough. The roast beef sliders are out of this world. If you're looking to cater a party wedding birthday etc, look no further.“
“Cute little place! Owner is super nice. Quality of the sandwiches is great and they come with a side . We got coleslaw and hands down best coleslaw I’ve ever had. Potato salad is also so good, light on the mayo which is perfect. Excited to go back and try more things on the menu.“
“I had a spinich/mozzarella omelette w/ side of sausage, home fries and toast. It was fantastic; fluffy eggs, not over done at all. 2 large, tasty sausage patties. This meal is like $7 or $8 more at other diners. Exceeded expectations on price, taste, portion and quality. I will absolutely return to try something off the lunch menu soon.“

“Went here for a quick lunch and found the staff friendly and extremely nice. Ordered a wrap and was told to grab a drink and sit down. Ordered a buffalo chicken wrap and it was one of the best wraps I've had, not over sauced, right amount of cheese and lettuce. Definitely recommend.“
“Absolutely awesome little deli. I love the comic book decorations. They always have great music playing.House made smoked brisket is phenomenal. It makes it hard to try other sandwiches. I finally broke my trend and tried the Ranchero. It did not disappoint!Every sandwich is made with the utmost care and love. It's hard to explain, but it makes a difference.“
“I’ve gotten lunch here before and it has been phenomenal. Coupled great food with their service, leads me to come back here. Point in case, I’m sitting here waiting for a breakfast order. They’re remaking my chocolate chip pancakes (for my nephew), because THEY determined it wasn’t fluffy enough — show me another establishment which strives to go above and beyond. It further attests to their level of service and quality of food they strive for. This is why I love small businesses like Sheimer’s.“
“If you love quirky places with good food at cheap prices you'll fall in love with the Road House Deli on Myrtle Avenue in Boonton! Talk about a hole in the wall place! There is wonderful Polish food made fresh, just like in Mama's kitchen if she was a good and interested cook. There's a table full of individually wrapped Polish pastries and they sell coffee, tea and food to go. Along the side wall are four tiny vintage booths so you can eat here in comfort. Today was my first time and the potato pancakes were large and tasty, the pirogies were excellent and the owner put extra onions on top just like in Poland. We also had the meatballs with rice stuffing and gravy and real Kielbasa. Warren, a frequent lunch customer (Several times a week) was so enthusiastic. He eats one lunch in the Road House Deli and takes home a second for his dinner. Warren said to try the creamy horseradish dressing on the potato pancakes. He also says he comes every Tueaday for the special spinach casserole which says is excellent. I'm recommending the Road House Deli for good home style cooking, low prices and talk about local color. There is a must be at least 60 year old phonograph and hundreds of LP albums. You choose what you want to hear, put the record on the phonograph and get the music you want without having to pay a jukebox fee. Now how cool is that?“

“My office has ordered lunch from here many times and the food is always great! Today we had an afternoon event catered from Natale's and not only was everything delicious, but the customer service was above and beyond! Highly recommend them!“
“Dinner report from Nov 25th. After turkey on Thanksgiving, we needed an Italian meal for our family of four and Vitale's delivered. Serving dinner on the weekend, the deli is transformed into a trattoria courtesy of black linen tablecloths and black screens which hide the refrigerated deli cases from view. The "Spiedini" is a must order from the list of starters. The specials are super - we quite enjoyed chicken and veal dishes - but the fish and shellfish are where the restaurant shines. On this night the lobster ravioli were served with the both shrimp and scallops. The service is both friendly and efficient. Water glasses are kept filled and BYO wine is opened promptly. We will return to this gem of a restaurant!“
