Defonte's Sandwich Shop is a renowned deli known for its high-quality sandwiches, many of which are made in-house. Customers highly recommend the Roast Pork Special with provolone and broccoli Rabe. The sandwiches are substantial, and the overall experience is excellent, making it a favorite among many. Located near the subway, it's an ideal spot for a meal on the Brooklyn Bridge Promenade. The restaurant offers a bustling atmosphere that adds to its charm, and the service is friendly. While some found the sides too vinegar-heavy, the quality of the fillings and the overall experience make Defonte's a top destination for sandwich lovers. The menu features appealing options, including vegetarian choices like eggplant, broccoli Rabe, cucumber salad, and roasted peppers. However, some customers have noted that the bread can be disappointing, tasting commercial or industrial, and not as fresh as desired. Despite this, Defonte's is a classic sandwich spot that has been in business for over 100 years, and many say it's worth a special trip to Red Hook just to enjoy a sandwich. The place is known for its delicious, but expensive sandwiches that are definitely worth treating yourself to. Just remember, it is cash only.
