The store has a fresh produce section, deli section for sliced meats and cheese, and a wonderful meat/chicken/pork section. It reminds me of a local store when I was a child in the inner city. The fresh baked goods they carry are good - but I wish they still carried the items brought in by The Village Bakers in Jacksonville, a renowned bakery in northeast Florida. We alway get fresh rolls from them to make our sandwiches. The crumb cake slices are amazingly delicious - just like back in NJ where I grew up. The quality of the meats they carry is top shelf - we have never gotten anything that wasn't terrific. Hubby prefers Boar's Head brand, and they are cheaper than the grocery store that carries it nearby. I will always recommend them and return for my grocery shopping. Cashiers on the way out are always pleasant.

The two owners used to sell their pasta out of Tornatores restaurant but now they have their own shop. While I was there the owner was making gnocchi. They offer so many types of fresh pasta starting at 5.95 and I wanted to buy one of every variety. They offer about 6 or 7 kinds of ravioli. They have containers of made in house marinara (7.95) and meat sauce so you can purchase everything you need to cook up a pot of pasta. For dessert they have tiramisu, pistachio and ricotta or Torta Della Nonna by Bindi. The frozen pizza has unique toppings. I bought the zucchini and at home the pizza baked up to perfection. The pizza was thin and the crust came out crunchy. I loved it. I also bought a tray of lasagna that was frozen. You let it defrost a little and then bake it in the oven. So easy to make and so good. The store offers items in frozen and refrigerated cases and shelves of a few Italian cooking staples. The couple that owns this store are so friendly, happy to explain anything and excited to have their own store. I like that you can buy authentic restaurant quality food at Supermarket prices. Check the weekly hours as they are open certain days and right now close at 3 pm.

I'm a Philly girl and this isn't necessarily a traditional Philly cheesesteak, but I don't care - it was delicious! I've tried several others since we've moved here and this has been the best one. It comes on a delicious long roll, premium chopped steak, fontina cheese and caramelized onions. The sandwich is 10.5 inches long (yes I measured it lol) and it was only $12.50. Jersey Mikes charges more and can't even touch this bad boy. We will definitely be back again. Going to invite my best friend here for lunch soon. We also tried the corn cake - it was only $1 and was so moist. I've had cornbread before, but not corn cake. They have a whole list of other sandwiches to choose from also - I may have to try some of the others, but I'm going to have to get my cheesesteak fix taken care of first. They also sell homemade pasta, salads and all kinds of butchered meat (steak, etc.). Oh and it's inside the market area at Sawgrass Grove in the Villages. If you go around dinner time, you can grab a sandwich and sit outside, get a drink and listen to the live entertainment.

I love Italian food - the flavor it has etc. This store has been around for over 50 years per Sal who I met. But I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with this store as they don't seem to be gourmet at all. I was looking for fresh pasta/ravoli, bread,pestos, things I usually get at the Italian market. Unfortunately, Sal led me to a section of dry boxed pasta trying to convince me it was the best. I then asked him about ravioli as that was mainly what I wanted to cook that night. He then took me to his freezer and said he had the best ravioli. Although it wasn't what I was looking for, I decided to give it a try and got a lb of ravioli. His frozen ravioli didn't compare to the frozen ravioli I got from the nature store down the street. I used the same sauce and everything I did previously and it was just blah. Additionally his store is mostly just boxed and bottled items imported from Italy, so things are a bit different nowadays and importing from other countries isn't as gourmet as it used to be. Unfortunately, I don't see myself coming back which is sad because I love to support small local businesses.
