I moved here from Long Island and haven’t really been able to find a deli comparable to the ones there. I was so surprised with this place I called right after I ate my sandwich to let them know how good it was. Sliced thin cold cuts and fresh bread! Finally a place that knows how to do it right in this area! Highly recommend. Such a gem!

We had amazing wedges from here recently. Chicken Parm wedge was PERFECT. Not greasy, not oily. Cutlets were juicy, tender, and delicious. The banana pudding was incredible as well.

Best Italian combo in Greenwich! The Roast Beef is fantastic too! Try it with mozzarella and roasted red peppers. Banana pudding is unbelievable!

How did I miss this place until now? A true Italian deli with the best fresh mozzarella I've had since moving from NY to CT. Grilled vegetables were fresh and perfectly-cooked (not too soggy/soft, but cooked through). Can't wait to try more.

Excellent food but the service is not so well. Owner doesn’t greet or say hello always in a bad mood.

I picked up food for my girlfriend and I and thought it was incredible. We both got sandwiches with their homemade mozz. They were so delicious. They also were nice enough to heat up a frozen potato leek soup for us. You should have seen her face when she first tried it! The service was friendly and very prompt. Loved the interior of the store. Small but packed with Italian goods. Will definitely be coming back here. Can't recommend enough for anyone looking for an Italian fix in southern CT!

i’ve never left a review because i’ve been a regular here for years. orlando is the best. all the food is to die for. best chicken parm on a roll i’ve ever had. the fresh mozzarella is insane. they have my favorite coffe (illy) and orlando really knows his customers. best place for italian sandwiches in greenwich. the prepared meals are also amazing.

Likable Italian deli. I only get wedges, but they are very good! Easy access and parking. Helpful cheery staff.

We recently highlighted them in our Greenwich Food Show, Tell'em Mike Sent You. We had their 3 top sandwiches, the Villa Nuova, the Marco Polo, and the Italian Stallion. every sandwich was incredible. Everything is very simply prepared, but with the best ingredients being the star of the show you can't go wrong. Then you have the seeded Arthur Ave bread as an exclamation point?! Tremendous. The delicious finished product is a testament to Orlando and the team being extremely picky in the curation of their product. We capped off the show with an espresso and freshly filled cannoli. When I'm in there it brings me back to being in Italy, slowing down, and enjoying ever bite. If it's your first time, I recommend the Marco Polo with chicken cutlet on the seeded bread pressed.
