Feh! Another Pisillo wannabe but you ain't gonna be Pisillo because you are NOT Pisillo! What sets Pisillo apart from all the other Italian sandwich shops in New York City is their authenticity. Short of Parisi, no other comparable sandwich shop has their meats imported from the old country, their breads from the old country, their cheeses from the old country. Here, everything is from New York bakeries, butcher shops, and produce markets. While not a bad thing, it loses me because real deal Italian products from Italy taste much better, even if it does cost more. The sandwich comes with a lot of meat, and the meat is good. Unfortunately, the bread is on the softer side. There is little to crunchiness, little to no resistance. It felt like it was too over proofed. As I mentioned in a previous Yelp review, the bread is what binds a sandwich together. A tasty bread brings it all together nicely, even if the meat is just okay. A lousy bread undoes it all, even if the meat is tasty. Bread on these sandwiches need to work, or you just call it an antipasto salad and call it a day. With that, I will stick with Pisillo for that authentic Italian vibe. This is not a bad sandwich, but not the best for value. read more

Wow, this little hole in the wall hits the mark. Just walking distance from the court house making it the perfect spot for downtown lawyers, jurors, and others. Let's dive in .... Venetto (5/5): This sandwich is pretty much everything I wanted. The bread came out warm, fresh, and soft. The avo, normally the king of all things millennial was fresh, but I was more taken aback by the roasted red pepper and artichoke. The arugula and house vinaigrette tie it so nicely together. I added fresh motz for $2 more and it all felt whole. Service (5/5): Quick service, brought me the food. Super friendly and helpful when ordering. TL;DR: A major win for City Hall and Downtown Manhattan. Affordable bite to eats are hard to find here. If I'm in the area would absolutely return. read more

Very good sandwiches. Cute little storefront close to all the courthouses and across from the park. Service was quick and good. Got 1/2 a sandwich (vegetarian option- Capone) and it was good. Hot peppers are hot but give the sandwich good taste. The dressing was good as well. I ate at the kids' park across the way. There are not many seats in the space. They have drinks too.

I visited Chipilo on a Monday. Overall service was good and quick - I had my sandwich within 2 minutes of ordering. The staff was also very friendly. The sandwich itself was a bit bready - I got the Chipileno and they were a bit stingy with the Prosciutto. The meat to bread ratio was not ideal. The dressing did taste nice and the bread was very fresh. Overall good service, but the sandwich itself was just average. read more

Ohh man, I just started working down here and have been Yelping to find new lunch spots. I was craving a yummy sammich and came across this place that looked like it had fresh ingredients on delicious bread. Chipilo did not disappoint! It is a neat little hole in the wall across from Columbus Park. I went with the namesake sandwich the Chipileno with prosciutto, sopressata, red peppers, arugula, fresh mozzarella, and balsamic on fresh sourdough bread. You are asked if you want a half or whole, I went with the whole and have lunch leftover for tomorrow as well. Can't wait to try more sandwiches from this gem. read more

Small high quality Italian sandwich shop. Excellent ingredients which are fresh and assembled to order. I usually get the whole size (vs. half) which can be a bit pricey depending on what you choose. Bread is usually fresh but have had a couple instances where it wasn't as fresh as I'd hoped. I tend to go with the sfilatino. They are happy to customize which is nice, I like their hot spread so often add it. All in all a fantastic option in the area if you're craving an Italian sandwich. read more

Half sandwiches run around $8-9 dollars and full is around $14 depending on what you order. Got the full Massimo (ham, olives, artichoke and smoked mozzarella) and I was hoping to eat it as 2 separate meals. I didnt last 2 hours before I devoured the other half. a delicious sandwich sitting right next to me will never last. read more

Stopped by on a hot evening to see what has become of what used to be Sharkey. Was surprised to see that another business was in operation already. Decided to pop in and give the sandwiches a try. I decided on the Stefano (smoked chicken, smoked mozzarella, roasted peppers, arugula, hot spread). The sandwich itself is pretty big. I didn't measure it, but I'd say it's probably a foot-long. First complaint. When I unwrapped my sandwich back home, it was uncut. I mean, it's not a big deal but what reason is there to not cut a sandwich that long? Would someone really pick up the whole foot and start chowing down? Also, the bread it is on is a very basic whole wheat (I think) bun. The bread was a bit dry actually. On first bite, my thought was where's the hot spread?? Upon inspection, there is SOME sort of sauce in the sandwich. I couldn't tell you what, but it sure wasn't hot sauce. Not even a hint of spiciness. Overall, unimpressive. The sandwich was super basic. Way too expensive. Came out to be $14 and change after taxes. I miss Sharkey's Cafe :( read more

The place is great!! Sandwiches made to perfection :) I'm a huge fan of my sandwiches but I'm a little picky with my food, so I hate it when I go to the store and they only have turkey ham and w.e but no pork so being able to go somewhere, where you can look at the menu and everything seems good it's not something I see every day. The people are so nice and friendly that when I asked if they had mayo because I didn't see it at all they said they'll get me some. So that's something I truly look for in a place. Great service, great food and my next must go to spot for sandwiches. read more

I was a huge fan of Sharkey's so I was sad to learn it closed--but Chipilo is really great! While the basic white bread should be upgraded a bit, the actual stuff in the sandwiches are very fresh and tasty. The portions are mega generous--so for that $12, you really are getting two meals, which is a solid deal. I'm happy now I don't want to walk down to Pisillo on Nassau when I'm having an Italian sandwich craving. The staff is super friendly as well.

What attracted me was the Huge Italian sandwiches sign!lol i was Pleasantly surprised! Old-school Italian sandwiches are what this place is all about and they knocked it out of the park, I went w with the recommended"Marconi" sandwich which consisted of smoked chicken sopressata fresh mozzarella avocado calabria and hot spread on super fresh semolina bread, outstanding! Not overloaded with meat, just perfect, The manager Manny said all the meats and cheeses are imported from Italy and the bread delivered fresh, there's only one table and a counter w stools to devour these delectable sandwiches in a small mom and pop jount. my coworker and I were fortunate enough to grab the table by the window, I left one star off because I felt it was a tad bit pricey but it is great quality and I look forward to coming back soon! read more

I was just amazed at the size of the ciabatta bread. They had many different types of bread that I can try next time like the focaccia, sfilatino, and semolina bread that looked really good behind the display glass. They got 35 different types of panini sandwiches for you to choose from. Most of them contain meat and there are some vegetarian options that are not so pricey. I will try those next time!

The workers were so friendly and chatted with us to help us pick the perfect options for us. 2 sandwiches lasted me and my husband multiple meals. The sandwich ingredients seemed really fresh! Didn't blow me away, but overall a good sandwich and a good experience!

Compared to Counter Service or the other fast casual sandwich places, Sandwell's are larger, though they tend to stick to chicken and turkey (vs. beef or pork.). The service is also very friendly. The only other sandwich for lunch alternative in this area which is possibly better is Banh Anh Em, which has banh mi at the same price point, but is only available for lunch a few days a week. But of course you're limited to just banh mi's. Very much would recommend Sandwell.

I can't believe I didn't realize Thanksgiving sandwiches are actually a thing until this year. A…read morefriend told me that Sandwell sells them before Thanksgiving, so I decided to come here and order one for dinner. They call it the "Ross sandwich" as a homage to the Friends tv show where one episode features a Thanksgiving sandwich Monica had made for Ross that got eaten by someone else. There is also a "Rachel sandwich" but I'm not sure the origin of that one. The sandwich comes sliced in half and it's very easy to eat (you won't have stuff falling out). There are a handful of tables indoors and outdoors which is great since you can enjoy your warm sandwich immediately. I looooved the Ross sandwich--it came with turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing all in a delicious semolina sub roll. I also got a bottle of the ginger lemonade which was good. We ordered the pesto chicken salad as well which was alright, but I definitely preferred the sandwich. I wanted to order another one immediately!

The seeded hero they serve it on was so chewy and the steak was cooked to perfection and it had such a nice cooper sharp cheese on it that bursted with flavor in every single bite! The fries were incredible too. I'm gonna be dreaming about this meal for a long time.... The 90s vibe of this place made the whole experience even better. The classic 90s soda machine, the menu, and the 90s movies they have playing was a masterful touch to the place. Cannot recommend enough snd truly cannot wait to come back.

The ciabatta bread tasted factory-made and the sandwich overall could have used some sort of seasoning or something. Just was disappointed.

If you are on the UES and need to redeem your MealPal credits, this is a good choice to try once. The guy who worked there was nice and at my request allowed me to try the truffle sauce they sold there for $20 for a large container. I guess this is what they use for truffle pasta. However, there is no way I could use all of it in 7 days so I didn't buy it. The sauce was pretty trufflely.

If you want a sandwich that earns your loyalty over decades, Parisi Bakery & Deli is that place…read more I've been eating sandwiches here for as long as I can remember, and the remarkable thing is how nothing has slipped--not the quality, not the care, not the magic. Every visit reminds you why Parisi has survived since 1903 while trends and neighbors came and went. Let's talk about The Dennis--the undisputed star and a true signature sandwich. This thing is a monster, built on Parisi's legendary fresh-baked bread that somehow stays crisp, chewy, and perfect no matter how much goodness gets piled inside. You get a crispy breaded chicken cutlet layered with thin-sliced prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, and (if you know what you're doing) roasted red peppers. It's all brought together with their house balsamic blend and basil herb spread/pesto--bright, savory, and completely addictive. I cannot confirm or deny that the sandwich is named after me, but I can confirm it's flawless. Pro tips: * Cash only, old-school rules apply. * Come hungry or plan ahead--this sandwich is big enough to share or save half for later, and it still eats beautifully round two. * Tip the sandwich makers. These folks are artists, and the tip box deserves some love. Beyond the food, Parisi is living New York history. From its origins as an Italian bakery on Mott Street, to feeding generations of locals, to being famously beloved by Frank Sinatra (yes, the bread was shipped to California), this place is woven into the fabric of Little Italy/Nolita. Legends like De Niro and Scorsese are fans, and you can still feel that old-world soul--right down to the original brick oven relic resting in the basement. Parisi isn't just a deli. It's continuity. It's tradition. It's proof that when you do one thing incredibly well for over a century, people keep coming back. And once you've had The Dennis, you will too.

Are you f'n kidding? Wow. blown away. Best sandwich I've had in Manhattan!…read more Get the Dennis. It's everything you want in your life. See my review on IG or TikTok @wouldmattlikeit
