I went here today and I got a large pastrami sandwich I told the man that I didn't want lettuce and tomato on it so he put lettuce and tomato on the side for me. The bread was extremely fresh I was only able to eat half of it It was so delicious! I will definitely be back

I like Nardelli's. I like their seafood salad and they always have good sandwiches. Great food with an ample amount of meat.

I sought this one out because I knew the nardelli chain. They were in the middle of some construction, but totally accessible. I've been several times and always enjoyed the warm greeting and service. Together with the wonderful food makes it a true gem! I wish I lived in the neighborhood to enjoy it more often. You guys are lucky!

They have the best vegan meat!! I love the vegetarian wrap. If you're on the fence, try it.. it's better than any sandwich slices you get at the grocery store for sure.

Nardellis not only has great food, but great service too! I ordered from there today for pickup. When I went inside with my toddler and my infant in a car seat, the worker inside immediately offered to bring the food out to my car so I didn’t have to carry it. The food was delicious - even my picky toddler chowed down!

Fantastic Nardelli's location. Not only is it right on the main drag of rt 66 (getting out of the parking lot is the biggest issue) it is a clean and friendly store. Every time I go to this location for lunch the staff is excellent- friendly, customer service oriented and polite. I have never had a bad experience. They always overstuff their sandwiches and for the price, you can't go wrong. I LOVE that this location has hardrolls- the one closer to my home only has half-grinders, and sometimes are a little more difficult to eat. I would highly recommend this location. A+++ always!

Extremely clean. Very friendly and prompt customer service, the two guys there were great. Has to be the BEST pastrami I've possibly ever had! My husband loved his chicken cutlet, the lettuce was fresh and the bread was delicious!

Great place to get a sandwich among other things. They have a pretty good selection of tasty desserts too.

steack n cheese grinder wasnt too good. It was barely hot, asked for salt & pepper didnt get any. I asked for xtra mayo but got excessive mayo glob which made the sandwich messy and tasteless. Disapointed with the money spent.

I thought the place was just a normal grinder place. Nothing really stood out to me. The meal was good, and I got my fill. Although, I wouldn’t say that I was wowed by the flavour, taste, receipt, or anything like that. I did enjoy a nice quiet lunch with my girlfriend. Something that we hadn’t had in a while so it was enjoyable in that respect. However, for 30 dollars, I want blown away.

Bought a mozzarella and tomato chicken cutlet sandwich one slice of tomato on each side of a large sandwich of a sandwich you focus on the tomato. What else is missing? Where is the mozzarella? No mozzarella either.

Usually Nardelli’s is great. I don’t know if they were short staffed or in a rush but my veggie grinder was just thrown together. The cheese was stuck together on just one half of the grinder. It was mostly lettuce and there was no mayo on it and they put olives on it after I said no olives.

I am a long time fan of nardellis but my last few visits have not gone well. The bread was stale, it had a frozen & defrosted taste to it 🤢 the grinders are always dry. (even when you ask for extra mayo). It saddens me to say.. I have been visiting Nardellis since I was a 5yr old girl with my family. But, recently I would rather go to subway. Smh. Highly disappointed.
