Great Italian subs and bocconcini (mozzarella balls). Lezza Italian ice is very good. And the chicken parmesan on a bed of mostaccioli is fantastic. It's also one of the few Italian sub shops in the area that will deliver through Uber eats.

Hands Down Best Lasgna I’ve had in my life. Better than Tony’s Deli. I tried both the meat and spinach. The sauce was light not overpowering the cheese was delicious. I will definitely go again.

Came in for a tray of lasagna without calling an order in first and they were very accommodating putting one together for me on the spot. Everyone loved it. Thank you!

Quick story, my fiance and I started coming here for dates 7-8 years ago. It's her favorite lasagna ever and she grew up in a traditional Italian family.The quality here is impeccable. We moved a few years ago and we're in town today. We luckily made it in 15 min before they closed and it is just as good at any point of the day. The best and there's no competition.

We ordered today and the food was delivered fast but my Panini Sandwich was soaking wet the chicken had a horrible smell to it. The bread looked as if someone took a piece off of it. It was just gross. We won't be ordering from here again.

OMG this place is amazing. Rex Italian Foods is an awesome Italian deli that has a whole assortment of prepared foods that are home made. The selection is amazing and very overwhelming for someone coming here for the first time. They are a combination grocery store and deli. It's like being an adult in a candy store. (First time about 5 years ago) This is actually the second time I've been here but I never wrote a review da first time. I couldn't remeba where da joint was. Well tada I found it ova on Harlem Ave @ 4431 N Harlem save jest nort of Montrose on da east side ib da street. Well now that I found da joint I bookmarked it and went inside to reacquaint myself to Rex Eyetalian Foods. As you enter you see a deli case wit all sorts of goodies. They have sammiches, hot lunches and deli sthuff ta eat dere or ta take home. I think most of da people take it to go cause the seating area is a little small but I ordered da meat lasagna ta dine in. I chowed down on the cheesy meat lasagna wit red sauce. It was very good. Definitely worth checking out. Once you've been here you will be back again.

Staff are all super friendly. Alot of variety of foods. Chicken parm, zero taste. Sauce cheese chicken, no seasoning. Hard to tell what I was eating. Portions are great, seating limited.

I finally made it to Rex Italian Foods! You'll see on the side of the entrance door the mural for Diner's Drive-Ins and Dives so I knew I had to go one of these days. During our visit we ordered the Eggplant Parm and Arancini. The Eggplant Parm was great, I loved the sauce and the serving was huge. The Arancini however felt short for me. I ordered the arancini with prosciutto and at first bite there was a weird and something off with the taste that I couldn't describe and just didn't seem fresh. I did like the service, the staff was friendly and many of their customers are regulars. Not sure if it was an off day but hopefully for the next time, I'll find more dishes I like.

The best Italian deli, catering and to go food! We tried the manicotti so fresh and tender with an incredible red sauce! Also got a sub sandwich, a Guy Fieri sausage sandwich and a cannoli. Everything was so fresh, seasoned perfectly and delicious. We are going back! Also bought frozen raviolis. Wish they had their sauce. Fresh and good....but get a tub of marinara for them. Parking lot. A few cute tables set up to dine in. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Also have home baked cookies and fresh gelato.

We recently asked Rex to make a large order of Sausage-Peppers and Mosscotolli for us - we were not disappointed. Everyone that dug in and helped us make it disappear all agreed that we now have a new "Go To" place. The sausage was especially a stand out. Thanks to the Rex Staff!
