I go to Alidoro when I want a small breakfast sandwich that packs a punch! The staff here is always friendly and they greet you as soon as you walk in the door. Everyone is usually wearing a smile when I walk in. Today I ordered the Davide which is a hard poached egg, smoked sliced chicken, a smear of bel pase, loads of hot peppers and it is on a mini brioche bun. It is made fresh while you wait the 5 minutes for it to be all put together. This mini breakfast sandwich is loaded with flavor and you only need one to get over those hunger pains. I would definitely go back to this restaurant and pick up this breakfast sandwich for $3.50 in Midtown. I cannot wait to go back and try there lunch items. read more

Love Alidoro! The sandwiches are awesome, but don't sleep on the coffee - I go there every morning on my way to the office and the cold brew is amazing! The staff is always lovely and put a smile on my face. Will keep going back! read more

I stopped by bryant park today to get one of my favorite sandwiches the gothamist The staff, food and the atmosphere are always so amazing but the temperature in that store was beyond bearableeeeee, there was no air conditioning whatsoever I felt as though I was going to faint waiting for my food. Please for the love of god fix the air conditioning to have your staff work in such conditions is horrendous. read more

Have been looking for an authentic Italian deli to get the real stuff from this is it. On the pricy side, especially if you DoorDash or use something similar. Next time, I will 100% be walking there to save the cash, but it was so good I don't even want to complain.... read more

Pretty supreme Italian deli with fresh, delicious Italian cold cuts and cheeses. Popular and quite crowded during lunch rush so be sure to order ahead on an app. The prosciutto and mozzarella with some arugula and dressing is classic and filling! A little expensive, but totally worth it for the size and quality of the sandwich! read more

Ordered the gothamist. Supposed to have burrata on it but came with just slices of mozzarella cheese. Not sure if this is what they consider to be burrata or not but in other parts of the city this doesn't fly, especially for $22. read more

After Googling Al fresco dining near Penn Station, I came upon "Pennsylvania 6" and decided to give it a try. This was part of a celebration of my granddaughter's graduation from Fordham university in May (virtual of course) our European trip was canceled to do Covid. So instead of dining Al Fresco in Paris, here we are in the beautiful city of New York. Picture perfect day! What made it even more beautiful was the attentiveness of the servers and manager. They were all so kind and sweet. Our brunch didn't take long at all. I was in the mood for breakfast so the eggs with cheese, sausage and fries suited me fine. My granddaughter had a burger which suited her fine, also. I would definitely go back again the next time we visit New York from Philadelphia/Boston respectively. read more

I had a wonderful breakfast sandwich here on a Friday morning. Not too crowded (very late for breakfast) and the staff couldn't have been nicer. read more

I ordered ahead online and built my own sandwich. I got porchetta, mozzarella, arugula and olive paste on semolina bread. The sandwich was delicious! I think the sandwich cost $16 plus left a tip. The sandwich was ready and waiting by the door for easy pickup. The only negative thing I will say is that on Instagram and yelp the meat in the sandwich looks so full but my sandwich felt a little bit lacking in porchetta. read more

I went for lunch today and waited in line for 15 minutes to order. Right when I got to the front of the line, the person told me that there is a 40+ minute wait to get my sandwich after I order. It would have been great to know that before I wasted 15 minutes of my lunch break. read more

Sandwiches are some of the best i've ever had, but the price is a lot. However, that is coming from a tourist. This was the first meal I had of the day, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. It satisfied my hunger amazingly. 5 stars if not for the price. read more

I wish I would have seen the message almost 2 years ago but the owner did reach out and he was heartfelt and sincere and invited me to come back in for lunch. I really appreciate the time and care Jon took and I would return (even if he didn't generously invite me back ) for a second try just because of the heart and soul behind it. Any food with that much heart is definitely worth a second try!!! Thanks Jon read more

I was looking for a portable lunch option between the Upper East Side and Penn Station. My husband and I were toting carry-on size rolling suitcases, so initially we parked him with the suitcases at a small park across the street on the same block while I cued up with all the impeccably dressed young business people (or whatever they do). The line went faster than I expected and shortly I was inside the shop, and then again, shortly I was at the ordering spot. We got their signature sandwich, the Alidoro, cold, and one hot sandwich, the Fiorello. Once I got past the ordering spot, I realized that the back is larger than I expected and there were tons of places to eat-in. Since almost all the power lunchers were taking their food to go, I contacted the husband and he jumped on the chance to come over and eat in. I figure you're paying for the option to eat in, might as well do it. We sat at a bar facing away from the crew of sandwich makers and had no problem tucking our bags under the counter. The sandwiches were AWESOME! We are not big meat eaters, but make an exception for quality like this. We got both sandwiches on whole wheat, which at first seemed a big dense and chewy, but over the course of the sammies grew on me as it held up to the yumminess (and liquid). The Alidoro has prosciutto, hot peppers, sweet roasted peppers, mushroom paste, fennel, hot spread, and arugula. We chose this one because of the promise of spice and sevearl layers of veggies. It was well-balanced and packed with flavors that just bursted and bursted and bursted in our mouths. It definitely had some heat to it that was strong and sustained but never unpleasant. The Fiorello has mortadella, fresh mozzarella, and eggplant caponata. We selected the Fiorello because we wanted to see if the mortadella stood up to the comparison of eating it freshly sliced in a deli in Bolongna, and also because we love caponata. This sandwich was also fantastic, with a deep umami savoriness. The mortadella did live up to our hopes and dreams. The sandwich was a good foil to the Alidoro's spice. We were beyond satisfied, and the meal stuck with us until late in the day. If I ever ate here again, I would find a way to eat only a half at a time. Yes, the sandwiches are crazy expensive, but compared to other options, I walked away feeling like the money was worth it. Thanks Yelp. read more

I had the la primavera hot sandwich. It was delicious.The ingredients were distinct yet blended together nicely. I was happy with my lunch. It was a big sandwich. Easy to have for 2 meals or to share! read more

7 people working behind the counter and a cold sandwich took 20 minutes. Good in theory but not in practice. In a midtown location time is of the essence! Wouldn't recommend- go to the Potbelly's on 40th read more

Expensive but after trying their sandwiches I can say they are worth it for the size and quality! I placed an online order for a lunchtime pickup and the process was smooth and an efficient way to avoid long wait times. In the mood for something spicy, I ordered the Enzo and definitely had my craving satisfied. The hot spread and hot peppers were quite spicy, but the flavor was so addicting and had me hooked. The fresh mozzarella was a perfect complement to the other spicy components of the sandwich, and the bread was amazing. Great place for an Italian sandwich! read more

So after a 2-star review that I wrote earlier, I was contacted by Alidoro and was asked for a chance to re-try the restaurant and food. The people I was in touch with cared very much about the quality of the food and that I was dissatisfied with the sandwich, and I honestly was blown away by their effort to make it better. I went down this afternoon and indeed it was much better! Honestly, the customer service was the nicest and most attentive I had seen in a restaurant in a long long time. I got a hot "Mona Lisa" sandwich and got an "Alyssa" for my friend. The Mona Lisa was ok, the bread was fantastic and fresh, and the ingredients themselves were delicious. But there was just so few of them that it is hard to rate this sandwich 5 out of 5. More like 5 on taste, 3 on the amount of ingredients. The Alyssa, however, was a totally different story. Fresh and delicious, ample amounts of chicken and flavor and the focaccia is the best we have ever had. 5 out of 5 for the Alyssa! Again, if not for the customer service and their true show of caring for the customer, if this review was solely based on the food, I would give a 4 star, however, since Alidoro truly went above and beyond, I gave 5 stars. And I'll definitely be heading back! read more

The sandwiches are really good. I've been happy with every sandwich I have tried. The bread is fresh and chewy and they are not stingy with the filling. Sorry, no photos, the sandwiches are always eaten before I get a chance. Four stars only because sandwiches get a little pricey when you do add-ons. read more

Have been coming repeatedly week after week. Sandwiches are great, staff is helpful and despite the occasionally long lines starting 12pm, they serve pretty fast given that is all freshly made. Very solid lunch spot! read more

The sandwich was great if it wasn't for the absolutely stale as a rock bread it was on.

4 stars is fair for this upper market sandwich house. I had the spicy one, the Enzo. I've had it a few times. It's pricey but worth it in my view. It is a lot of food. You could almost do a half and half for lunch and dinner seriously. The peppers on this sandwich have a spicy jalapeño running through it that really give it a kick. Couple of things to note, either come early or come late, but don't come at 12.30 or you'll wait 45 mins. They don't manage the line well, and they don't manage the speed well. So be aware. Second, it isn't cheap so if you are looking for that don't bother. Enjoy though, solid spot. Price 3/5 Food 4.5/5 Service 3.5/5 - nice but slow Ambiance 4/5 - nice place to sit read more

Let me start with saying I almost never give a 5/5 review when I spend 15 bucks on a single sandwich, but this place is worth the money. Coming in the place has plenty of standing and seating space for people wanting to in or just pick up food on the go. It's clean, with a visible kitchen (you can see all the meats and breads before they become sandwiches). The decor is spot on as well. The staff is friendly and quick with my sandwich coming out before I got a chance to settle down in my seat! The sandwich itself was great from start to finish. Crunchy shell on the bread with a soft inside, balsamic vinegar for a bit of flavor. The mozzarella was perfectly soft NOT chewy like that stuff in super market shelves and not "wet" like in some other places. A little bit of arugula and the chicken. The chicken is sliced paper thin so it's just as easy to eat and the mozzarella cheese itself! Over all the sandwich was a good size and filling. For dessert, I grabbed a vanilla cream pastry. To my surprise it had little bits of fruit inside as well! Very tasty, great way to finish a meal! 5/5 - it's a cold sandwich yea, but so worth the price. Pastry is great too! Would come back for lunch during or after work hours. I'd even come here on a casual date or hang out snack with friends. read more

One of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time. We stopped in mid-afternoon after the lunch rush. The staff were friendly and offered suggestions in a polite way. There are so many choices, but we tried the Gothamist. The sandwiches are large enough to split yet you still feel quite full. There are five bread selections and it is a nice touch they are displayed where you place your order. The Gothamist had prosciutto, was supposed to have fresh burrata, but they were out and substituted fresh mozzarella. The prosciutto, was fresh, thinly sliced and just the right amount of salt. The sandwich included lemon basil pesto and fresh basil leaves. The lemon was very faint and could have been a little more prevalent. It was all accompanied by a sun dried tomato paste. Overall, each flavor complimented the other, the salty prosciutto was toned down by the mild mozzarella. Many yelp reviews mentioned the prices being high, but since the sandwich was enough for two, it was equivalent to the price of two sandwiches. Will definitely return. read more

Hands down one of the best sandwich shops in the city. Bread is on point, meats are a no brained and their spreads are . Reminds me of the real deal sandwich shops of Firenze. I'm a sucker for Mortadella so the Fiorello sandwich is my current favorite. It's a hot sandwich. Toasted Stirato bread, thinly sliced import mortadella, fresh mozzarella melted together and heated just enough and topped with a cold eggplant caponata that'll knock your socks off. It's about $15 a sandwich but well worth it since all all ingredients are of the best quality. This isn't your average deli roll or "Italian bread". Highly recommend if you're craving a good sandwich. read more

I tried the Ham + Jam breakfast sandwich today at the newly opened location in Moynihan Penn Station. It was truly a treat ! Skip the H&H bagels and check this place out. Just wish they'd open the food court so that folks can sit down and enjoy breakfast! read more

Highly recommend ordering ahead! We arrived at around 12PM on a weekday with less than 10 people in front of us in line, yet we waited close to 30 minutes before our 3 orders of 1 sandwich each were ready. The sandwiches themselves are HUGE and will probably last you 2-2.5 meals as they are packed with meats and cheeses, but they are quite pricey at around $15-$17 a pop. There isn't much seating inside, so its more of a to-go type of place. As for the sandwiches, I highly recommend the Alidoro if you can handle some spice. The alidoro is STUFFED with the works and full of flavor. I also tried the pinocchio which was just ok. It isn't nearly as flavorful and it has no veggies in the sandwich. The olive paste is very salty and a bit overwhelming. Definitely stay away if you're not big on salt or if you hate olives as the olive flavor can be overwhelming. read more

Seven shards of plastic found in my sandwich. Really a shame, because it was tasty. For the biz: Pinocchio sandwich, ordered around 1pm on3/21 The manager responded very promptly to my review. He worked with their staff to identify what may have gone wrong in the production process. These things happen and I couldn't have asked for a more professional response. I'll give them another try. read more

Great food but the Hispanic lady (dark hair around mid 30s) who works there has major attitudes. I just asked for an update on my order (which I ordered online 30 mins in advance), and she proceeded to say "you NEEED TO WAIT SO JUST WAIT OK??". I am very patient with service workers as their job is very tough, I understood that there are shitty costumers who deserve to be treated accordingly, but I am def not deserving of unprovoked attitudes. read more

I don't know what it is about this place, but I just feel like for the size and quality of their sandwiches, their prices are astronomically high. The ingredients and bread are good, but not amazing and it is a very average sized sandwich. That being said, the staff here is super friendly and they crank them out quickly--I just can't bring myself to spend $15 for the sandwiches they are offering. read more

Food looks amazing, but without a doubt the worst customer service / experience I have had in my life. The restaurant was busy, but the long line to order moved pretty quickly. Then after waiting to get our three sandwiches for over 40 minutes, we asked a woman at the counter to check on our order and she had a terrible attitude and remonstrated us saying we would have to wait our turn. Meanwhile, approximately 15 people who ordered after us had already picked up their orders. We went back to ask again 5 minutes later and again were met with a scowl, but then she went to look at the orders and could not find them. She almost became apologetic. After watching the staff fumble to figure out what happened, we told them that we had now been there for close to an hour and we're going to leave. We then asked if we could get a refund. Another ten minutes of them fumbling with the register and we decided to walk out. Will never patronize this place again. read more

4.5 stars. We got lunch delivery for work and the girl on the phone was very helpful. She said they don't deliver past 6th ave (we're on Broadway), but they made the exception for the extra block. The menu is extensive so there's no chance you won't find something you like. We got: the Romeo the Marina the Poverati the Alidoro the Brando The sandwiches are MONSTERS. DELICIOUS MONSTERS. It's so large that you need two hands to even carry the sandwich. So yes, they are $13/$14 but it's worth it because you sure as hell won't finish it in one sitting. You also get to choose what kind of bread you'd like. Options are: flat bread, baguette, white, wheat, and sour baguette. I got the baguette, and I do wish I got the flat bread. The baguette was so rough that it made my jaw tired. I also got an iced tea, which was a pretty horrible iced tea. Other than that, we all loved our sandwiches and I'd love to try some others. read more

I had the Fiorello (mortadella, fresh mozzarella, caponata of eggplant) on Stirato bread (long, baguette-shaped with a light brown crust with a sourbread, nutty aftertaste). The quality of the food was superb, and the palette true to the simplicity of a real Euro-inspired sandwich. I will absolutely go here for my sandwich cravings. The only thing I was a bit disappointed about was the eggplant-- I expected the caponata to be warmed, and it wasn't, so it didn't feel as hearty. Perhaps next time I'll ask them to warm it up and maybe add some speck for a firmer texture! YUM! read more

Looking for a super tasty food baby to slug down on your lunch break in midtown?! Look no further that alidoro! This place has choices galore and as much as you think you can't eat the other half of the ginormous sandwich you ordered, you do because it's so damn good. I went with the fratelli d'italia, so many flavors going on. So good. Really liked the hot spread and how it mixed with the pesto. My bf got the Gregorio and it really lived up to the claim of "very spicy". The mozzarella here is also on point. This place had a solid crowd for lunch, but the guys behind the counter were like a well oiled machine- we didn't wait more than 5-7 mins for our order. read more

I've been going to this place since the original Melampo in Soho. Sandwiches keep getting smaller and more expensive. Got four sandwiches today for almost $80. Each one was all bread. Never going back. Never read more

Note: The midtown location accepts credit cards. I wasn't sure and they told me that a lot of people don't know. The staff was nice. Got the Il Soprano which had prociutto, fresh mozzarella, Italian baby onions, sweet peppers, olive paste, arugula. I also added some artichokes for 1.50 Only took 5 minutes and I went there a bit past 12. The sandwich was quite huge. Good amount of cheese and prosciutto. Some peppers and onions as well but not too many. The extra artichokes were a bit sparse for the price but they were fresh. I found the cheese and meat (especially the former) to be of less quality than La Panineria in the village (current easy favorite) but the sandwich was still solid and quite large. Good place overall though. read more
