Defonte's Sandwich Shop is a traditional deli famous for their high-quality sandwiches, with many items made in-house. Customers highly recommend the Roast Pork Special with provolone and broccoli Rabe eggplant. The sandwiches are meals in your hand and live up to the hype, making it a favorite spot for many. Located not far from the subway, it is perfect 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 overall experience remains great. It’s 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, expensive sandwiches that are definitely worth treating yourself to. 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 very commercial or industrial, and not as fresh as desired. Despite this, the quality of the fillings and the overall experience make Defonte’s a top destination for sandwich lovers in New York City and beyond. Just remember, it is cash only.
