First time visit to A-1. Large sandwich (hot & cold), salad and pasta menu. They have a number…read moreof side salads to select from. Limited number of deli meats and cheeses. Lots of raw meat options. The fridges and freezers have some preoared food options. Lots of drink options. Some fresh produce along with some self serve rolls. Very friendly and helpful staff. I.ordered a few side salads and Torpedo sandwiches to go. The sandwich was just average. I prefer crunchy vs super soft rolls. The salads on the ither hand, we outstanding! Excellent potato salad and amazing caprese salad! Defina hot with the family! Prices were very reasonable. Parking. There isn't a lot but there was plenty of street parking close by. Typical San Pedro.

When you're in need of, or in the mood for Italian groceries, A-1 is a legit shop for all things…read moredelicious. This place has been here for a a while, a friend claims it's changed ownership, but I'm unsure if that's a fact. Either way, you're sure to find what you need and a few things you don't but you'll pick them up anyway because, well, Italy! On this visit, I procured some deli delights: soppressata, provolone, hot Italian sausage, caprese salad with pine nuts (nice touch) and marinated olives. A few cans of tomatoes, and some chocolate wafer cookies. I considered spumoni, but I didn't have a way to keep it cold for the drive home. Note to self: plan for cold storage next time! Service was swift and friendly. An offer to help with the bags out to the car. They don't have a parking lot, so street parking is it. Wear your patience hat because when it's busy, parking is a challenging. I'd say the only thing missing is a true Italian bakery. That's the one feature that puts a dent in my wallet...well, that and canned tomatoes. Why are canned tomatoes so darn expensive?? That DOP designation seems to add extra $$$. Overall, this place is a good option for shopping Italian products, albeit a bit out of the way for me so I'll likely only stop here when I'm in town.

I've been here a few times. It's a butcher shop, a sandwich shop and a mini grocery store in one…read more I'm normally much of a sandwich person but I like this place. Their customer service is usually great and friendly. They are very respectful. I can't remember all the sandwiches I've tried but I usually go for the butchers special. It has 3 different meats. I think ham, turkey and roast beef. It's like the whole farm! It's simple but it's good. I never thought the bread made a difference, but I really like the bread they use here. It's simple, soft and easy to eat. Unlike some breakfast where it's a tug of war to tear off a bite. It's not fancy. There's no panini I press, no arugula, aioli or anything like that. It's simple sandwiches how they traditionally made them before we got extra will these fancy ingredients. Great for the picky eater. One of the best sandwich places in town. I'm definitely going back.

Also, just a very clean and calming set up. Lovely decor that celebrates Sicily and Little Italy of Los Angeles but not overdone. And did I mention they want to feed you? Oh my gosh, the food here is SO good. And lots of it. And the prices were very good! While not Italian myself, I have eaten at some of the best in the country, especially back east, and this place beats most of the many I have enjoyed. So happy I found this place, and can't wait to get back to the lovely people and amazing food.

Awesome prices and selections…read more Bought large shrimp for 7 dollars a pound and some catfish for 5 dollars a pound already cut. Little bit of a wait. They were giving out free small bags of dog treats too which was a great bonus for the trip and wait. Definitely recommend coming out to get some local caught see food at a fraction of the super market pricing.

Found this place and was able to grab quite a bit of vegan items for her to try. So my caveat is all this is amazing for vegan- Chocolate chip cookies 9/10 would almost not know it was vegan, it was also fresh outta the oven.
