Valente’s Italian Deli is truly one of the most amazing places ever. Not only was the food absolutely spectacular—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care—but the customer service was just as outstanding. From my first phone call with the sweetest and most helpful woman, who patiently answered all my questions, to the friendly guys who assisted me when I picked up my order, every interaction was warm and welcoming.
You can tell this is a place that truly values its customers and takes pride in what they do. Everything was prepared perfectly, the atmosphere was inviting, and the overall experience went above and beyond my expectations. Valente’s isn’t just a deli—it’s the kind of place that keeps you coming back and recommending it to everyone you know. They truly value community.

Good food but lots of flies inside and bad odor. employees were unfriendly and prices are very high considering they’re not very thick or big. The smoked turkey was delicious. Some of the pasta salads looked old and dried up with hard noodles. My sub was difficult to eat because the bread was rock hard and they forgot the oil and vinegar so it was dry. Overall good food but unsanitary atmosphere and dangerous parking.

Off the beaten path a little but glad I came. This is your standard deli with all the fixings. The chicken salad with cranberry was delicious. Hard to make chicken salad well and they did it. The chicken cutlet sandwich I ordered was the star of the show. Loved it. The meatballs however were bland. The italian sub was good and they freshly slice the cold cuts to order. The customer service was ok as well but felt like they got a little annoyed that I kept ordering stuff. Nevertheless, I will be back for the food!

Great deli with quality sandwiches and ingredients. The fresh mozzarella is delicious and the baked goods are a must get. They have a great selection of items and prices are reasonable for the quality. A great stop for lunch.

This place RULES! Official Thicc boys served up on great bread. The sandwiches are actually thick too not just piled up in the center like some places. It’s everything you’d expect from a great italian deli in New Jersey. Meals to go, Stromboli, every salad you can think of and a little butcher shop in the back.
