Stopped in and spoke to the nicest gentleman. I decided to order a calzone and he made it just as I requested (less ricotta, more mozzarella and added sausage). It was so good and so was the extra sauce he added. It was also so big that be eating left overs tomorrow. Will definitely be going back and trying something new!
Excellent Selection of Quality imported Italian products From ?? Italy, The Food Here you want to talk about their Food Pizza, subs,Salads, Catering We catered a Christmas Party Amazing Selection and The Food Was Great the Sauce was Incredible on their Dinners, The Italian Mixed takes me Back to when you could get a great Sub Back in the 80s and 90s
Extremely disappointed especially after all the hype. We got multiple sandwiches today. The rolls which were supposed to be ciabatta are Frozen Sam's Club type of heat and eat French baguettes. Discolored and spoiled sopressata on my sandwich really is what did it for me the smell and The Taste after I had already unfortunately bit into it completely made me lose my appetite I will not be going back.
Starting off with the only positives: the ciabatta roll was pretty alright, the macaroni salad was good and the meatballs are okay.To call this place a "deli" is disrespectful to all New Yorkers, Italian Americans, and sandwich lovers everywhere. I can finally say that I have eaten the worst sandwich of my life, and I found it here. My previous experience here was my first and last. My partner's sandwich cost 15 dollars and it had 2 slices of Turkey on it. It was 3/4ths bread, 2 turkey slices and 1 piece of cheese My sandwich had an old!! greasy chicken cutlet on it that was so dry, I could not bite through it. The chicken cutlet was so disgusting I honestly gagged and had to take it off. The "fresh mozzarella" isnt fresh either.This place was so bad, its upsetting. Do not go here!! Its genuinely the worst food place I've ever been too. Make the drive to another deli.
Ordered their specialty Calabria sub. Absolute minimum amount of meat possible to fulfill the description on the menu. Literally one very thin slice of each. At $15.50 price point, this is unacceptable and will never go back there again. Contrast that with DiBella’s Italian sub for $10.50 and you get a full portion sub and then some.
Stopped in for a quick to go lunch. Grabbed pizza slices and a cup of Italian wedding soup. Pizza was ok. But the soup was $7 and had 1 little meatball in it! I don't mind paying $7 for quality food, but 1 tiny meatball?! Disappointing.
Very friendly staff and cool Italian imports to buy. Ordered a mushroom and black olive pizza and it was delicious. Crispy but not burnt. Clean, fast, and friendly. Bam!
My office ordered 3 pizzas today and to our surprise they were not very good. One was horrible. We ordered a broccoli pizza but it came without the broccoli and was crispy like a cracker (no joke). The plain pizza was rather dry as well. My coworkers said maybe we should call to let them know how bad it was. I did. I asked for the manager and the "manager" sounded very young and could not care less when I explained we spent $60 for 3 pizzas that were not good. She said she would give us a discount next time without asking my name or telling me hers. She failed to even say what the discount would be. When I asked she said 10% then said 15%. But it gets worse, instead of offering to refund the charge for the broccoli she said we were not charged for it. My coworker and I added the 3 pizzas and tax which it came to $48. We were charged $54 then gave a $5 tip. Therefore she was not giving correct information.
I expected to love this place but I was sadly disappointed. I had a stromboli of sausage and cheese for lunch and the first bite was a mouthful of grizzle and I swear the cheese was American cheese because it tasted like a toasted cheese sandwich. I also bought a small tray labeled roasted veggies with balsamic vinegar. Not a single piece was cooked - all were raw. The prepared pizza slices looked like flat photos of pizzas. Skip this place if you want italian.
How to ensure a first-time customer never returns.1. When customer asks to substitute roasted peppers with tomatoes, charge him an extra $1 for less costly ingredient and do not inform him of the upcharge.2. When customer requests if mortadella can be replaced with anything else on the $15 Italian mixed sub, inform him that it cannot be substituted or removed, because the meats have been pre-sliced and prepped in advance.3. Charge 4% fee on credit card purchases. Do not inform customer of charge. When customer inquiresabout charge, point him to an index card-sized paper taped to the register in 11-size font.$33 for 2 subs with boars head meat that you can get literally get everywhere for 2/3 the price and with better service/hospitality. The only thing I got served here was the middle finger.

Awesome first time experience. Sandwich was very fresh, high quality ingredients . Got their homemade potato salad which had just the right blend of seasoning and creamy. The macaroni and cheese was homemade and delicious. Homemade cheesecake is delicious. So happy to find a deli that offers fresh, quality ingredients. They also have imported specialty items. This is a great place to go for a quality meal. They also offer catering and delivery. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Will be returning customers for sure.
One of the best slices of Buffalo chicken pizza I’ve ever had!!!! (And I’ve had quite a few). Subs were delicious and huge and the prepared meals reheated well with great flavor. We’ll be back!!!!
