Excellent deli/restaurant - went with the classic: pastrami on rye, cole slaw and pickle. Washed it down with a Dr. Brown's Cream Soda. Staff were super friendly and while busy my lunch came out quickly. I brought home some latkes and matzah ball soup. Ate half of latke when I got home and it was legit. Foster is hands down Best in Bergen without question.
There's nothing wrong with fresh turkey on sliced rye with Cole slaw and Russian dressing. Or... Pastrami on rye. Along with a kasha knish and some whitefish salad? Heaven. This is the best Jewish deli you'll find in this part of Bergen County.
The sandwiches are fantastic. Pastrami is especially good. If you like tongue you can get it here and very good. Great for holiday dishes.
We are so fortunate to have Foster Village Kosher Deli near our home and really a part of our lives. First, every holiday is celebrated with their delicious, fresh, and wholesome foods. There are no shortcuts. The Kasha varnishkas are the best I've had (excepting for my mothers) The brisket is so tender and tasty and never salty. All of the salads are exceptional; super fresh. Try their chicken soup throw in the matzos balls and you are in heaven. Don't have anything for dinner? Try their meatballs, stuffed cabbage or roast chicken. I love their tender beef goulash or Israeli stew. You just can't go wrong.
Tal was great and worked w/ us to help make our dad's shiva top notch. The food was terrific. Pastrami, corned beef, whitefish, lox, etc, all were terrific. He also threw in a few extras such as herring, etc., no charge. Would definitely recommend them for any occasion.
Pastrami is always consistently melt in your mouth delish,,,,& the pickles . The best around and the portion size(s) in todays world are still what I remember getting when I first stumbled across this gem over 15 years ago
This deli always satisfies. From sandwiches, soups and knishes, they're all good. Never a bad choice coming here, whether it's for pickup or delivery.
I wish I took photos before devouring these sandwiches!! Got the Hot Pastrami with sauerkraut, mustard, and pickles on the side along with the Hot Brisket sandwich with mustard, Mayo, and pickles on the side. My recommendation is to eat the Hot Brisket sandwich first (of course, I did the opposite, and my chef of a husband ate things in the right order bc I didn't appreciate the flavor of the brisket as much after eating the pastrami). But my goodness what a pastrami sandwich!!! I've been looking for a good pastrami sandwich since moving to NJ 2-years ago and I think I've found it! Can't recommend this place enough. I also can't comment on the service or ambiance as I haven't dined in-house but hope to make it there in the future! Overall, love this place and will definitely be ordering again! P.S. - The Pickles we're PERFECT! Absolutely Loved everything!
