We used Genoa to cater our Christmas Eve celebration this year. I stopped in about 2 weeks before…read morethe date and they were so friendly and accommodating. I ordered 1/2 trays of everything for our group of 13 and we had more than enough food. Our dishes were Penne with Vodka Sauce, Meatballs with Marinara along with more penne in sauce, Chicken Marsala and Antipasto. The Chicken was absolutely delicious with lots of mushrooms and flavorful sauce. The meatballs were enormous and more importantly tasty. The only dish I wasn't entirely pleased with was the antipasto. I was envisioning whole chunks of cheese, olives, peppers and rolled cold cuts. Instead it was finely chopped cold cuts and American cheese on a bed of oily greens with a few pickled vegetables. Alas, I don't have any pictures! I didn't think to take any with all the festivities. I would definitely use them again for my catering/party needs.

As far as good subs go, these guys seem to know what they're doing. The Italian mix sub was…read moreeffortlessly tasty although it costs about $4 more than my favourite Italian sub in the region and also not as big. The shop was bustling and they had a good constant for traffic mostly ordering subs (hot and cold). The takeaway stuff (pictured) looked increasing so I might try some next time. They have private parking so that wasn't an issue. We'll be back.

I called, place the order, and I can tell it was taken by an Italian gentleman. He called back about 25 minutes later and said he was leaving. About two minutes later I see a FIAT entering the Hotel entrance and an Italian gentleman steps out, hands me my food, while wearing his cooking apron, with flower on him. Holy WOW is all I can say! Hands-down the best tomato sauce I've ever had. I order the egg plant and that was off the chain. If you live in Albany, I'm jealous, I would be here every day. If you're traveling through, I highly recommend it. Love you guys, and I'll be back.

I will always support local delis and restaurants however sometimes we have to be honest with…read moreourselves when writing reviews on places that we WANT to love. First off I'm not sure what food people in these reviews are eating, because in my experience the Italian mix sub was very bland, the bread was dry, and the meat looked pale and weird. That ambience of the place was nostalgic which is the reason why I gave it 3 stars and not 2. The woman helping me was friendly enough but made it a point to tell me how gas prices were fine at $4.10 per gallon as long as Trump was the president, which annoyed me because it gives an indication that details don't matter here. Given the taste of the $15 small sub I paid for it definitely tracks. Be your own critic, but for me it's the history of this place and not the food has people coming back. I won't be one of them.

I haven't been able to eat meat in years, but was craving roast beef one day. Typically I only get subs with tons of cheese and veggies, but wow this roast beef sub went down nicely. The service is amazing and very fast! Don't let a line distract you, because it moves fast. This isn't really a sit down type of place. They have other options to eat as well. I've never had the pizza, but have seen others ordering it so it must not be bad.

I am not surprised that this restaurant has started getting with the cheap trend of saving and cutting corners. They could have stayed smart and just jacked up the price, rather than compromising on the bread size. Now the customer pays more for less food. Let's get it 2026.

My wife and I were in town visiting our daughter and wanted a light lunch before a boat cruise. My…read moredaughter recommended Cardona's and I'm glad she did. The market has that old time vibe of being part of the neighborhood. Amazing selection of Italian goods and some seating. Perhaps most importantly, a really nice selection of creative sandwiches, filled with high quality ingredients, that they can also put on a wrap. I loved the Rabe C, broccoli rabe, fried eggplant, provolone and hot pepper spread. Great flavor combo and a pop of heat from the pepper spread. My wife enjoyed a delicious roast beef wrap and my daughter enjoyed a vibrant pasta salad. All that plus a local orchard sparkling apple cider! Almost forgot to mention, the woman working behind the counter was pleasant and the staff were all professional. I can see why it's a local favorite!

There is an array of both hot/cold items & an aroma that will catch anyone's attention as soon as the doople is open. The ONLY downside is that there is just one location. I no longer live/work close to them, and I wish that they would expand to my direction. However, they work very hard to make sure that we all leave w a smile on our face and are very satisfied with the service/food that we received. They deserve a 5 review!
