Hobby's Delicatessen & Restaurant

The BEST! Can’t really say anything about this place that hasn’t already been said. Forget Katz’s, the real deal is Hobby’s. They close pretty early unless there’s a Devils game!

Great Reuben sandwich! Took one to-go and ate it at hotel a few hours later and it was still so good. The balance of the cole slaw and dressing was perfect to cut through the fat.

Incredible food and huge portions at Hobby’s. This old-school family deli has an enormous menu, which left us planning our next trip back. One of the owners, Michael, chatted with us for a while during our meal, which added even more to the comfortable, welcoming, family vibe. The potato pancakes were better than any I’d had before, and the matzah ball soup was picture-worthy. There were several vegetarian and vegan options too, including a Mediterranean grilled vegetable platter with divine homemade hummus. Must try!

My sister and I were hungry and didn't want to eat at Newark Airport. So, we looked up restaurants in Newark and had strong positive reviews. I am so pleased to be adding my voice to that 5 star ratings. The pastrami and the corned beef are fantastic - every time (been there 3 times in the last 2 months). The last time I visited, I took my whole family and it turns out the meatloaf sub is also spectacular. We all loved sampling the sour pickles and half sours on the table. It's not fancy but man do they deliver on the sandwiches! I will go out of my way to eat there whenever I'm in the area.

Last week was our first time we went to this magnificent restaurant. But It is absolutely not the last time. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the attentive service, with the first-rate meal and booze and with the friendly price. We will absolutely visit there soon.

two days ago was the first time we visited this excellent restaurant. But It is surely not the last time. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the good service, with the high quality meal and wine and with the modest charge. We will absolutely go back there soon.

I love this place very much. theres a different atmosphere. The food is tasty. the service is effective and the team is very professional. The cost is satisfactory. truly recommend.

Ah-mazing pastrami! Best I have ever had. Like ever. A must stop for me every visit to NJ.

I was next door, at Born Exotic. The owner is professional and personable. The business's clientele includes major entertainment figures. I was impressed!

Get the #5- Corned Beef & Pastrami with coleslaw and Russian dressing. This simple explanation belies the true chemistry of this masterpiece. Add a spinach and potato knish and brace yourself for a blissful experience, primed for a sporting event or a contented nap.

Great pastrami. Terrific matzoh ball soup, unbelievable knish and the desert a great chocolate chip cookie. What could be bad. Give it a try you’ll love it

Warm, friendly, and cheeky owners. Awe-inspiring pastrami and corned beef. Delicious complimentary pickles. Split-pea soup felt wrong without ham hock, but the mushroom barley was tasty. The decor is straight out of the 60s, but the prices are very tragically 21st century. Be prepared to leave stuffed and ready to slip into a nitrate-induced coma.

It was 30 years since my last visit and nothing has changed! Great split pea soup and sandwich. Onion rings were fresh and fried perfectly. Staff are top notch, too.

The Perfect Lunch! Pastrami on rye with creamy coleslaw & Dr. Brown's black cherry pop to wash it all down!!

Family always traveled to Delancy street for a great Pastrami sandwichNOT ANY MORE HOBBY'S IS THE BEST!
