Luca Brasi's Deli

Great deli in Hoboken! We've ordered sandwiches from there and never left disappointed. They are HUGE, great bang for your buck, and the employees there really try to take care of their customers. I ordered a turkey and provolone and it was enough for three meals! The service was absolutely amazing and it's just a great place to have in the neighborhood.

The vibes are great and the employees are very hospitable and friendly. They are always very welcoming and kind.

Summary: in the land of Italian Delis, this place just doesn't cut it

Hoboken is blessed with an abundance of solid Italian Delis. Fiores is everyone's go to, but Vito's is a classic favorite. No matter which deli you choose, you can't really go wrong.

Well, unless you come to Luca Brasis. Although the name evokes fond memories of a certain mafioso that sleeps with the fishes, there was nothing fond about my various trips to this deli. Just about the only thing is that there's never much of a line - likely because everyone would rather go to Fiores instead.

The sandwiches are absolutely nothing to write home about. I've tried a couple of times just because I wanted to give this place a fair shake - but alas, it's just not what you're expecting when you bite into an Italian sandwich from Hoboken. In the end, there's way better options around town, so definitely skip this one.

We decided to stay in for Valentine's Day, have a comfortable at home evening and order food. HUGE MISTAKE!

The Italian sub was horrible. Embarrassing really for a deli. The bread was hard, I could barely bite thru it. The sub in general was just terrible. I cannot believe the kitchen packed it up and let it leave the kitchen.

The issues with the sub pale in comparison to the train wreck penne spa vodka with eggplant parmigiana. It was beyond terrible.. inedible!! The pasta was wayyy over cooked and the eggplant absolute garbage. I cannot believe they served that to paying guests.. it was so old and dry, I could not cut thru it. I tried to bite it and I couldn't. I have no idea where they were keeping this fried eggplant and for how long but it might be time for the health department to check out the food quality and storage.

I was very very disappointed.. it ruined our night!

I will never order from this place again..

I would like to add-- I have ordered before a few times and it was mediocre so I continued to order to give them business and in the hopes that the food would get better. I was very wrong!

Neighborhood-friendly deli with sandwiches, salads and pastas. We've gotten their sandwiches a few times, including different chicken cutlet sandwiches and a roast beef with dip sandwich. The roast beef with dip sandwich was better, the chicken cutlet was pretty dry without anything to really compensate for it. I guess we should've gotten condiments but alas. The service staff is really kind and quick, which we appreciate. We haven't eaten inside but they have plenty of seats!

Yummy large sandwiches - good bang for your buck! I usually place my order online and pick it up in store - it's super easy!

Solid spot! Stopped by to grab 2 sandwiches and was glad I did! I used to be a huge fan of Lisa's but haven't been in a while so I needed my sandwich fix!! I ordered Grilled Chicken Sub (with arugula, pesto, roasted peppers) and the Big Petey on whole wheat bread. The mozzarella is good but I wouldn't say it's the best I ever had.. (fiores) and the bread was pretty dry. Next time I'll just keep the white roll or try a wrap! Would recommend as a solid sub option in town!

This was my go to deli for a couple years. Their cold cut subs have, for the most part, never disappointed. Their hot subs are not for me, and I have tried about 3/4 of them.

I have to say, within the last year they have begun to skimp on the meat. They used to stack the sandwiches with 1-2 inches of meat, but now you're lucky if you get a couple slices of meat in every sub. I know restaurants have begun to cut back, but come on, loaded subs are a staple around here and in Hoboken where the competition is fierce, you should be packing those subs.

I still think it is a good deli, but there are a few others around I'd recommend in place of it now.

I got food poisoning from this place so I definitely don't recommend anyone to their food.

Absolutely never ordering from this place again.
While eating my roast beef sandwich o suddenly bit into something very hard. It was a 2 inch screw inside my sandwich!' This is completely unacceptable'

So this morning's weekly Sunday breakfast out takes me back to Hoboken. I had to try somewhere new and fate landed me here.

The appearance is great. Parking is rough but where in Hoboken isn't parking rough?

I ordered online (5 sandwiches and home fries) and everything was ready when we got there. Keep in mind we're a solid 15 minutes away. I know, I'd hope it would be ready in 15 minutes but with some places I've been too...... you'd be surprised.

I got the Egg whites, fresh mozzarella and broccoli rabe and my youngest got his traditional sausage, egg and cheese. When I unwrapped mine I was very nervous. It looked very blasé. I was wrong, the salt from the fresh mozzarella and the broccoli rabe really carried this sandwich. Worked well together. My son was also very happy with his sandwich.

The inside and very clean and the staff was very helpful. That's always a plus. With that said, I do believe I'll be back for lunch sometime.....
