I have been coming here for years. The Thursday sandwich special is my favorite, Turkey on baguette with other deliciousness that makes it perfect. Next, I like to get two meatballs warmed and plated with marinara sauce to eat there.
One of these days, we will plan out our Hollywood Bowl trip far enough in advance and pick up one of their Pinic Basket options. Something to look forward to trying!

This place has saved the day for so many short-on-time dinners! The quality, from antipasti, to lunchtime sandwiches, to frozen house-made pastas, never lets us down. Somehow they have managed to consistently have friendly, helpful staff year after year, too!

*Their turkey meatballs are our favorite to take home and heat for pasta dishes or sandwiches. Mmmm

This place is amazing, a nice little marketplace, deli, and restaurant all in one. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They have so many different things, huge selection for food, drinks, and snacks. A few indoor seats and a large outdoor patio. The panini I got was toasted to perfection and delicious. Overall really great place for lunch.

We went here for the first time today and really enjoyed everything that we got. I really appreciated how balanced the flavors were for each item. We'll definitely be back to enjoy the patio.

Absolutely amazing experience. Got to meet John (one of the owners) but that’s not why I like this place. The food is authentic. Reminds me of my Nonn-‘s cooking. Yes I am of American Italian descent. Great to go selection. Everything looks beautiful!Minestrone soup (which can be such a tasteless soup made by so many) is totally flavorful full of beautiful vegetables!! Sandwich I had the Italian sub was on point and you’re talking to a New Yorker !Thrilled to have found this awesome deli/eatery. By the way it’s super clean. Well organized in the staff is delightful and very helpful.

Dietary restrictions: They have some gluten-free options which is really nice. They actually care and they stop and they listen.

Kid-friendliness: Great patio in the back for kids

Wheelchair accessibility: Great spot for handicap with wheelchair needs

I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in. It had a true deli feeling and everything looked/smelled so good. Plenty of items to purchase as well, such as dried pasta, olive oil, honey etc.I ordered the Tuscano Panini and it was ::chefs kiss::Limited seating indoors and plenty of seating in the back with heaters for the colder days.

I love this place for a quick casual lunch! Sandwiches and salads are delicious. You can even buy a bottle of wine there to enjoy as well! The outside patio is nice and shaded, parking is easy too.

Vegetarian options: Got the grilled vegetable panini and it was delicious!
