Zio's Deli & Heroes Reviews
Grabbed two sandwiches about an hour ago. Some of the best I have had. I had the Mary Etta and my wife had the Weeze. Great breading on the cutlets, loved their rolls/bread… the chipotle aioli was great! Try this place out! It deserves your hard earned money!!! I’d take a picture of my sandwich but I ate the whole thing!!!!
We purchased a caprese platter and 4 subs to contribute to a recent office party. Zio's--and specifically Ben--were easy to work with and our order was ready and beautifully presented at the appointed hour. In addition, the food was outstanding and the platter was massive for its price!

Zio's Deli & Heroes is a classic establishment known for its generous portions and fresh ingredients. The chicken cutlets and eggplant are praised for being thin and crispy. They offer a variety of great sandwiches, including the Wayne-O and the Rocco, and have gluten-free options for those with dietary restrictions. The staff is attentive and helpful, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Whether dining in or ordering takeout, customers can consistently expect great flavors and portion sizes, made with care using super fresh ingredients.
The deli is within walking distance to Buffalo State University, making it a convenient option for students and locals alike. Customers have been particularly impressed with the fresh, soft bread used for the sandwiches, as well as the flavor and quality of the fillings. The JT with bacon and the ham and cheese toasted sandwich have been highlighted as delicious choices. Additionally, the Rico sandwich has been praised for its light, flavorful, and non-soggy cutlet. While the deli does not offer fountain drinks, the bottled options available have not deterred customers from returning for the excellent food.
