I've been waiting 4 months for this place to open. Anticipation was high. Friends teased me for stopping by often to check for updates and see how the buildout was coming. Yesterday Our neighbors said they tried it out and it was excellent. We did take out today. Placed order 1115am, it was ready 1245. Easy process through Toast / Apple Pay. We walked there - wise move since the parking lot is tiny and tough to maneuver. I suspect most people will park at adjacent lots like Whole Foods and isham garage The benches and tables outside were well populated and everyone seemed to be having a nice time. Guessing they were waiting for a table which I overheard was 90 minutes. We grabbed our sandwiches and before we left the staff double checked it to make sure it was accurate - great attention to detail! Nobody enjoys finding an error when they reach home. We opened the boxes at home and realized the half sandwiches we ordered were each enough for two people. Packaging was good, efficient and effective. Two of the sandwiches were on focaccia, one on semolina, both options were excellent. The broccoli rabe on the porchetta sandwich was mildly inconvenient/ unwieldy but still worth it - delizioso. Allora, the milano was so beautifully balanced with artichoke citrus and tartufo (often overdone). My fidanzata liked the nonna the most - simple but comforting. We recommend this new fab spot unabashedly. My high expectations were met, maybe exceeded. Will try dining in when it's not so busy. Will look to other reviews for the low down on tiramisu, and the acoustics of dining in. Check it out pronto, remember the portions are closer to venti than grande, and if you're driving there find another place to park. Don't forget to hit like and subscribe.

The line is out the door! Get here early--well before lunch if you want to eat on time. :) Joe and his staff go above and beyond to make sure you have a high-quality experience. They're friendly, attentive, and double-check every order. Seating is limited indoors, but there's outdoor seating too, which is a nice way to escape the bustle. The menu is varied and interesting. Joe introduces so many different flavors and combinations that eating here is an education in Italian sandwich cuisine--it's truly unique, and you learn a lot just reading the menu. My only wish is for a few more traditional options to satisfy simpler tastes. That said, his customers are loving every morsel, and the long lines and 45-minute waits at peak times are a testament to how well he knows his audience. Delicious! read more

Good sandwiches, affordable and ample This place has been blowing up my social media feed as of late. So we decided to make the trek and try this new place out. Seating is limited, and the place was very busy. Good signs, but also daunting when you come in off the street and only have a couple minutes to navigate the menu. I opted for the la Regina on focaccia as a small, and some truffle parm chips. Food came out quick, and we grabbed pics for the review. The food is good, good quality meats and sauces, the size is fairly large for a small. One sandwich is easily enough to satisfy the biggest of appetites. The issue I had was although it was flavorful, it was too much bread and arugula to get an ideal bite. Had to dissect the sandwich to get everything in one chomp. When you did, the meat was sliced fresh, the sauces had the right amount of zip, and the bread was fresh. All the elements were good, just disproportional. A few tables away, a couple of influencers were getting their reels built. Owner greeted them directly and chatted with them briefly. Good to see the owner engaged with those posting on their behest. Seemed to be addressing friends and social media types, but not so much other patrons. A server did eventually address all tables and checked in with us, but there was limited service beyond this. For the area, it's good eats at a reasonable price point. A fine addition to the foodie scene and a great place for a bite to eat. I will be back, and it's worth a try if you're in the area read more

I wanted to try something new and I heard about this place over social media. I kinda knew the area so I knew it would be busy for a Saturday afternoon. Good luck on finding parking in the lot because it is small. You might have to park else where and walk to the shop. Since I knew it was going to be busy I ordered online and pick it up later than the suggested time. I ordered the Cotolette Classico (chicken cutlet sandwich) and the La Nonna (Meatball Sub). Couldn't decided if I should order the full or half but end up getting the half. Driving there, my assumption was correct and parking was a no go. I had to park at the Whole Foods lot and go in quickly. Walking in it was a cute shop but very small. The line was out the door and I didn't know who I need to speak to get my online order. Once the crowd moved a bit, I saw a rack against the wall with brown bags and excuse myself through the crowd. I found my name on a bag and took it off the rack and walked out. No one greeted or check me. I guess it runs on the honor system. I got home and we open the boxes. The half was more than enough for one person. Each sandwich was still hot, delicious and a bit messy. I would definitely order take out from here again but chance of trying to dine in is a no go. read more

For me I think this is a place that is dependent heavily on what you order. I think this could be a five star, but for us it was a four star. The food quality was very good, however the portion sizes of the sandwiches makes them almost inedible. And all the tables around us were having the same issue. Many ended up using a fork and knife to attach the monstrous plate in front of them. I ordered a chicken cutlet, which was well seasoned. However, I didn't order the one with sauce, and it desperately needed the sauce. My husband ordered the pistachio cream sandwich, which was tasty but very subtle flavors. The chips were very good, flavored well and crispy. For us we will come back but order the chicken cutlet with sauce (think their version of a chicken parm). read more

Massive 1/2 sandwich. Prepare to eat with folk and knife and have lots of napkins. Chicken cutlets were plentiful, thin, crispy and delicious, the vodka sauce was so much. You couldn't pick up the sandwich-not even an option. Pool of sauce in the bottom of the box. Ended up really eating the chicken. Very flavorful, I think next time I'd select a different sandwich minus the sauce. Sad it didn't have mozzarella, I guess I just assumed. Order ahead!!! Line was crazy and space was packed. read more

I wanted to love Mozz & Co. The food really is that good. The Calabrese Cotoletta and truffle chips were both 10/10, and you can tell there's real potential behind the menu. Unfortunately, the experience didn't match. This is not a full-service restaurant, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's important to know going in. You order at the counter, then basically fend for yourself trying to find a seat, if you're lucky enough to grab one. We were there for about two hours total (30 min to order, an hour + waiting for food), and the whole place felt like a zoo. The space is cute, but it's very tight, the outdoor seating helps a bit... though they could definitely use more tables. I do think the staff is trying their best, but the system is clearly overwhelmed. The woman taking and calling out orders was visibly stressed, handed us the wrong food, then argued that it was our fault. Orders are called once and then left on a shelf, so you're constantly checking...not exactly a relaxing dining experience. Parking is also a mess (maybe 8 spots, double parking everywhere, got blocked in trying to leave). On top of everything, the prices feel pretty steep for the portions (especially the cream line), and small details added to the frustration like glass bottle sodas with no help opening them and a phone number that was not in service when I tried calling. I might try again once the chaos dies down, but right now the experience takes away from how good the food actually is. read more

Their food was delicious!!! I got a chicken cutlet sub and it had to be some of the best chicken cutlet I have ever had! 10/10 recommend! Not much seating but the ambiance was very clean and welcoming! Everyone was very helpful at the takeout counter and I can't wait to try this spot again for a delicious chicken cutlet sandwich! read more

First off - let's talk about the wait time. EASILY over an hour - I could go to a sit down restaurant for lunch and be in and out in less time than it takes to get a sandwich here. That will probably self-regulate over time. I've tried a couple different sandwiches, a salad and the tiramisu. Huge portion sizes (the half size is more than enough). I've gotten both the classico and chicken cutlet and in both cases a LOT of meat. But its not a well balanced sandwich - arugula is an after thought - if the protein was ramped down and the arugula ramped up, it would work better - and presumably take less time to make. Bread isnt great - foccacia is meh, the semolina I wouldnt get again. Tiramisu ratios were completely wrong - it was like a hash of lady fingers loaded with whipped cream. If the order time comes down I might go back but not sure. read more

Wow this place is popular! I went on a Sunday afternoon and was told that a takeout order would take 90 minutes. I didn't mind because the store is within walking distance of two grocery stores and a boba tea shop. Plenty to do while waiting. Unfortunately, the order wasn't ready for pick-up until way later-- like more than 2 hours later. The actual pick-up time was fifteen minutes after they had closed the store for the day! Afterwards, I discovered that they had forgotten to give me the house chips that I ordered. But what I did get-- the Porchetta Trifolata and Fungi Siciliano on Semolina-- was absolutely delicious. The ingredients were fresh, seasonings were impeccable, and the bread was the right kind of chewy. The tiramisu looked a mess, but it tasted heavenly. Hopefully they get their process sorted out over time or maybe find a better way to notify people that their order is ready so there isn't so much time wasted waiting. I'd really like to come back and try their other menu items, but not if I have to wait more than two hours for an order that they didn't even get right. read more

I got the porchetta sandwich on gluten free bread. It was so good and the gluten free bread was phenomenal. The staff was extremely friendly. I would say there are 2 things keeping this place from a full 5 stars. First off, for a $24 sandwich I expect it to be stuffed. I think the regular full gluten sandwiches looked pretty filled but mine definitely was a bit light on the filling. Also, the wait time is crazy. I happened to be off work but waiting 30-40 min for a sandwich means I could never plan on going during the week. All in all it was a great sandwich though. read more

I was able to make it to Mozz & Co on opening day, and right from the start I was impressed. The staff was incredibly friendly even with the large turnout. I ordered 3 sandwiches to go for myself & family. There was a nearly hour long wait, but I expected such with the rush and the fact that it was in fact their very first day. No problem at all. The sandwiches (all half size) were still large & generously stuffed with all of their unique components. I was impressed by my trattoria trio, loaded with marinated eggplant, their house mozz, arugula, and artichoke tapenade. You have a choice between semolina loaf and house focaccia bread, so I went with the focaccia. It was a unique filling and flavorful vegetarian option, and sadly that's hard to find. The calabrese cotoletta (chicken cutlet, nduja vodka sauce, pesto, and stracciatella) and signora amalfi (prosciutto, fig jam, Gorgonzola cream, balsamic, and arugula) got rave reviews from my family as well, both equally impressive looking. I have since returned for trattoria trio, and it was just as good the second time! I ordered ahead online, and my order was ready at the estimated time. They even remembered me! The prices are extremely reasonable, especially given the portions, so I expect to be a regular. I would gladly eat my food there, the space is inviting and nicely decorated, though not huge. But right now, with the mad rush to try one of these delicious sandwiches, seats are at a premium and it's quite crowded. There is a patio outside with several tables as well. I highly recommend making the trip to Mozz & Co. It is definitely worth the hype. read more

Excellent chicken cutlets -- just like mom used to make. Mortadella sandwich was on point ! I cant wait to go back !

I ordered take out online and it estimated to be ready by 12:38 and they were spot on! When I arrived, it's such a cute spot. The parking is not ideal but they didn't have a lot of options. I imagine lots of people are going to be parking in Whole Foods. The ambiance is super cute. It's very tiny with a few tables and counter spots. The docs makes it feel a bit cramped and close together. But they have a nice outdoor patio. I was immediately greeted by an older gentleman who told me he retired and lives on the same street as the owner and offered to help. He was hustling! He was so kind and made sure to grab my order number and kept me updated. He was very personable. I order Le Regina after seeing it recommended on Yelp. I ordered the half which was smart because portions are big. This sandwich was delicious! I got it on focaccia and you can tell it's homemade. So light and fluffy. Great sandwich and will definitely be back! They had complimentary lemon water which was much needed on this rare 85 degree day in April. read more

I've been looking forward to checking this place out for a while and was thrilled to today. Hands down best sandwich spot I've ever been to. Portions were HUGE and you can easily split a half sandwich with two people. We did the Nonna and Calabrese, some of their house chips, and their tiramisu. I'm salivating just writing about these and am so glad I have leftovers for tomorrow! I can't wait to go back and try their whole menu over time! Incredibly friendly owner and staff and the best lunch experience ever. Highly highly recommend checking them out! read more

The only "problem" here is choosing what to order. I ended up getting two sandwiches: La Regina (mortadella, pistachio cream, stracciatella, arugula, hot honey) and Il Pasiano (fennel sausage, roasted peppers & onions, smoked mozzarella, pepperoncini aioli). La Regina was incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. I fell in love with mortadella on a recent trip to northern Italy, and this brought me right back. But Il Pasiano? Completely out of this world. Hands down the best Italian sausage sandwich I've ever had. The sausage itself was phenomenal, easily the best I've tasted, and everything else on it just elevated it to another level. And don't skip dessert. The limoncello tiramisu was amazing--light, bright, and the perfect sweet finish. I'm already looking forward to the next visit... and the next impossible decision. read more

My wife got the Milano Royale and I got the Regina. The quality of the meats and toppings was fantastic. Unfortunately the focaccio both came on was a bit stale. The bread to sandwich ratio was really off - the bread was too thick for the quantity of ingredients and that combined with it being stale just made my sandwich a dry experience that wasn't as flavorful as it could be. The stracciatella was nice texturally, but lacked flavor (could use salt to really enhance it). Overall a pretty decent sandwich, but it could really have been next level. It was extremely crowded and had a long line, but they were super friendly and once I ordered my sandwich came out extremely quickly! read more

I wanted to love it but I found it impossible to eat. Got the chicken cutlet with vodka sauce and it came out a total mess. The roll was so hard and stale it could not be chewed, it broke at the bottom, the entire sandwich turned into a sloppy mess that could only be eaten by dissecting it with a knife and fork but by then it was just a heap of a mess. Looked around and that seemed to be the way of it for everyone. And all that was on the counter was small cocktail napkins. If its not supposed to be a sandwich-- why call it one? And if its basically a mess- could you spring for slightly better paper napkins? This is a very small space with a huge line and it seems maybe quality is suffering for quantity. read more

This restaurant rivals All'Antico Vinao, a sandwich shop in Florence Italy where I had way too many sandwiches. They now have two places in NYC. Mozz did a great job renovating the very dark former Mexican restaurant. Beautiful white tiles. Ordered the Dolce on focaccia. Hands down best sandwich ever. Bread means e'thing!!!

Mozz & Co - A sandwich which was a huge so good - Italian Near Me - West Hartford, Connecticut

This place is amazing! High-quality fresh ingredients. You can taste the bread, desserts, mozzarella are fresh made. You can't go wrong with whatever you choose and I never been to a place I've said that about. Portions are huge so prices are appropriate and reasonable. Order ahead if you don't want to wait. Everything is made to order so there can be a wait. If you can find a table you can still sit and eat there but it travels well too. The atmosphere is casual, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. We (my family) have had the classico, calabrese, Milano, Antipasta Salad, Regular and Lemon Tiramisu. All fantastic! I'll be back as often as it allows. read more

Ordered 1/2 of both the Calabrese Cotoletta and La Nonna on focaccia. Two of the best sandwiches I've ever had, and each 1/2 could have been enough for two people. The focaccia and meatballs were especially stand-out. You could tell that everything was high-quality. The inside and patio were both busy, and the parking lot was full. This location has had a lot of turnover in recent years, but I'm really rooting for these folks because I'd like to keep coming back for a long time. read more

Went to try them today and ordered takeout on the way home. Get home and both meals are completely different from what I ordered. Ordered the Calabrese Colloletta , got some dry bread with fried chicken and 2 slices of tomato. No sauce no cheese....ordered the sausage sandwich, open the box and there are just dried crumbles of sausage in the box and 1 roasted pepper plopped on top. No cheese. No sauce. Both sandwich were dry with no sauce and both ended up in the trash as I couldn't even swallow them.$30 down the damn toilet. Not like im going to drive a half hour back to have them give me the right food. VERY DISSAPOINTED. I wont be back at all read more

Had the Caesar salad and Classico Italiano on focaccia bread. Salad was meh and sandwich was the same. Fresh sandwich but too much bread. Delivery service Mozz &co uses have unreadable high delivery fees. Wish West Hartford would get a real old school deli. read more

It is soooo good. Sandwiches are huge, even the half size. The bread is amazing. I went on a Tuesday at 2:30 and the wait was half an hour, so be prepared and order ahead. read more

My daughter and I tried this new Italian deli on Monday afternoon and LOVED it! At 2 pm the place was still packed but the wait time was only 20-30 minutes and well worth the wait! We had the half Regina and the half Milano on focaccia. The sandwiches were SO delicious and a perfect size-we even split them in half so we could share the goodness. It was so good that I won't be happy until I have had everything on the menu! Bonus-we met Mom! read more

The food was amazing. Fresh, great quality, great flavor combinations. For me, sandwiches were enough for meals.

If a fresh, delicious and down right awesome sandwich is what you want then look nowhere else! The foods as good as the picture make it look! We tried the Cream-line, Calabrese Cotoletta, sea salt and thyme and truffle parm house-made chips and the Limoncello Tiramisu. Everything went far beyond our expectations! This is exactly what West Hartford needed. Has a nice bistro vibe on the inside and a nice seating area outside. read more
