Italian sandwich shop conveniently located by Tulane! If you have ever been to Italy, you know this iconic focaccia bread sandwich, well here it is in New Orleans! The Roma is probably my favorite because it is more savory. The positano was a little sweeter than I expected with the fig jam. I love the fig jam. Both sandwiches were great and you can't go wrong Price is pricey Bread is oily Parking is street and somewhat difficult to find, had to walk 2 blocks Only has about 3 small tables to sit outside, otherwise you're out of luck. I took it to go since there was no seating. Overall, I'd definitely come back. I think half a sandwich per person would suffice instead of a whole next time. It still tasted good after being in the fridge for a day. read more

What is not to love about a sandwich shop who makes their own Italian bread and imports their meats and cheeses from Italy? Our sandwiches were to die for. I had the Napoli. The prosciutto was heavenly, the sweetness of the fig spread coupled with the spicy Calabrian chilis is out of this world. Sooo good! Mike had the Pisa. Despite the chicken being a perfectly thin cotoletta (yes, I have been taking Italian lessons for the past year ) it was still moist and crispy. The sauce was wonderful and the mozzarella was melted to form the most delightful sandwich. We had planned to get back over there before we left town but failed to. Alas, another reason to come back to NOLA This place is not an eat in establishment but has 3 tables outside for you to enjoy your sandwiches. The young lady who took our order was friendly and pleasant and one of the owners (the mom) chatted with us. Our experience was wonderful. It reminded us of our visits to sandwich shops in Firenze. Panini deliziosi! read more

The bread and the crisp of the the pistachio on the Positano were out of this world. The Verona special we had was also amazing.

Lunch is the single best sandwich i've had in the USA, and i've traveled it extensively for work for about 13 years now. The former favorite was a place in little rock arkansas that closed in 2017 or so. This is better, no question. I'd travel back to new orleans just to eat it again read more

The bread hard and greasy . Not worth the calories . Keep it real. 4 of my colleagues had lunch there . We all hated the food. It's hot outside only 3 tables . No diet soda read more

Incredibly fresh, delicious and creative sandwiches. The homemade bread is the star! Such a nice change from the typical po'boy.

one of our interns came into the office holding a sandwich that smelled so heavenly, with such a delicious balsamic aroma, that i had to ask where she got it, and she said it was from "lunch." i didn't hesitate and i've gotten this same sandwich twice - it's insanely good. i was actually craving a big sandwich the other day and saw that this location is closed temporarily, and i will sadly have left new orleans by the time it reopens, but i will always remember this delicious sandwich. the bread! the pesto! the cheese! and that balsamic glaze!!! read more

I am from San Francisco where we have North Beach a whole Italian neighborhood with Sandwich shops and restaurants. I seriously got goosebumps being here at lunch sandwich shop !! It is the first time since I moved here in 2018 I have had an Italian sandwich of this quality and simplicity ! That's what makes Italian food so incredible, simple high quality ingredients with love being the most important ingredient. . The house baked bread is phenomenal ! I had the mortadella, burratta, arugula and pistachio spread (It comes with also a fig jam I prefer more savory). I will be back every week til I go through the menu. EVERYTHING sounds good to me. Oh ! Also the service was incredible! It is evident that are passionate about their food. read more
