Visiting from the West Coast and this was our first visit to a Jewish Deli. It was a wonderful experience and one I'll probably never have again. Thank you.

Michael Cerstvik

Best corned beef and pastrami sandwich I've ever tasted! It's called the New King David. Amazing! A little pricey but I got two meals out of it so not too bad. It was HUGE! A lot of other food on the menu I definitely want to return and try. Excellent service and totally kosher. Highly recommended!

Lynn Ann Browne

Being there for an extended period of time I must say the # food choices is the Pastrami sandwich (with spicy mustard, or dressed with c-slaw & Russian ) Eppes Omelet, Chocolate Babka, tuna by the lb, matzo ball soup and the Kippered Salmon. And for those gamers that triple decker sandwiches and pigs in the blanket is a must have for game day

Everything here was absolutely delicious. I did both takeout and dine-in, and both were great. We also had a lovely time chatting with the owner. He has a great sense of humor! No wonder why my husband's family has been coming here for ~40 years.

Its very hard to find good Jewish style deli in New Jersey. Eppes Essen pastrami does a tap dance on your tongue. It's the best pastrami on rye we've had since we left New York. Good food, nice people. When you have and urge for a pastrami or corned beef on rye, this is the place to go.

Delicious authentic food. Stuffed cabbage just like my mothers. Ordered for Passover Seder. Loved the food. And staff is so nice. Healthy salad brisket kasha all terrific.

This staple Deli has always been my go to when I'm craving some cornbeef and pastrami. They never disappoint. I highly recommend Eppes!!!

Frank Nicotero

Sandwiches like the pastrami and corned beef and pastrami combo are awesome not as gigantic as they used to be but nothing is like it used to be a little more expensive than a normal deli but everything is completely amazing and the service is great I've been going to this place since I was 5 years old so that is 37 years and I'm very pleased with everything and all my experiences!!👍

Stephanie Fox

I am a BIG fan of this restaurant! You get pickles and cole slaw with every meal which are delicious. I adore the Salute (salami and eggs served pancake style) with French fries (super crispy). I'd tote looking for a good, traditional Jewish deli, this place is for you!
