    Meatballs and sausage combo.
    Rene L.

    After having read several reviews about this establishment my wife and I decided to go there for lunch today. Delicious sandwiches that we each brought home half. The bread, everything was delicious. Great service that you can see makes you feel welcome. The café has ten tables and was perfect to tuck into our lunch!

    Amazing cannoli's the scent inside was so amazing I have to come back for a sandwich!

    Sandwiches are so good. Amazing pastries as well. This is our second time stopping in and will continue each visit.

    My Italian

    We made our way here after hearing a lot of chatter online with plenty of people recommending this bakery. I never knew it was here, but my husband had seen it plenty of times but never stopped. We stopped in on an early Sunday afternoon looking to try their grinders (subs, hoagies etc for those not from these parts). I stayed with a traditional Italian and my husband ordered the Bomba panini (it's really not a panini, because it wasn't flat at all, but they told us that when we ordered). They told us we could have a seat in the cafe and they would bring it out to us when our sandwiches were ready. We wondered over to the cafe which is a short walk with shelves of all sorts of imported cooking staples to buy. The cafe has about 10 tables or so and they also have a coffee bar in there where you order coffees and such. They brought our sandwiches out and they were huge. My Italian was delicious and my husband said his Bomba was one of the best sandwiches he ever had (yay! I found another good place!). After we were done (I was stuffed) my husband got a piece of tiramisu and loved it, I also grabbed a bite and I had to agree it was great. We would have grabbed more baked goods to go, but it was extremely hot out and we weren't planning on going home for awhile (next time we'll bring a cooler!). Our 2 grinders, a bottle of water and the tiramisu came to $28. and change. We are definitely adding this to our list of great places to grab a quick bite!!

    Eggplant Parm sub is awful. Just a mess of a sandwich with soggy eggplant parm broken up on bread. Italian sub was okay- not the best not the worst. Bread on both sandwiches was delicious. Also got some cookies but noticed that quite a few pastries/cookies looked like store bought and unpacked onto a tray to look home made. The rainbow cookies are absolutely just unpackaged from the cake bites brand :(

    Very neat little market and bakery, awesome subs / grinders with freshly baked rolls and premium meats. Cozy interior that smells like Italian cookies. Staff was great!

    Tiramisu

    5/5 every single time! Sandwiches are huge and meats are fresh. Very high quality ingredients are used. Bread is also made in house. Desserts are highly underrated but so much better than the other Italian bakeries in Worcester. A must try!!

Typical deli ambience & menu with daily and monthly specials. My husband and I both ordered specials. He had a sandwich that he thoroughly enjoyed, but cannot remember the name. I had the Sumo salad, which had every delicious ingredient you can imagine! Sumo mandarin oranges, mangos, grapes, blueberries, strawberries, marinated chicken, cucumbers, tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, green onions, red onions, avocado & mixed greens. The serving was huge and wonderful. Make sure you leave room for their cheesecakes! The slices are 1 POUND each (I weighed them when I arrived home because they felt so heavy) and are creamy and smooth. The fruit-topped one was quite good, although it paled in comparison to the Coffee Oreo. I would drive an hour for this! No joke! The only negative of our dining experience was the overly loud music. My husband and I sat in silence because we could not hear each other over the music, even with our voices raised. It appeared to hinder the staff in taking orders as well. If you have driven past this special little place in the past, now is the time to stop by and see what you are missing, and do not forget the cheesecake!

A menu board is posted over the order counter and two soft drink coolers to choose a bottled beverage from are next to the cashier. The menu offers a variety of sandwiches, salads and soups. There are a lot of sauces you can add to your sandwich if the menu doesn't specify what condiments are included. You can also make your sandwich a 'platter' if you want to add fries, onion rings and coleslaw to your sandwich. I ordered the roast beef and asked for horse radish sauce. There was a *lot* of sauce on this sandwich. So much so, that was all I could really taste so I'm not sure if I actually like their roast beef or not. I should have asked if I could get it 'on the side' I suppose. Live and learn. From what I could see under the sauce, the roast beef is cooked very rare. It was difficult to chew through and with all that sauce it made for a very messy meal. We ate in their dining room which is a small, pleasant space with lots of old photos of Worcester. The napkins available at the table are kind of useless. They smear the mess, they don't mop it up. I used a LOT of napkins trying to keep tidy while eating my sandwich. The fries were very good when hot. Crispy outside, fluffy inside. The coleslaw was almost without flavor. Salt and pepper are on the table. You're going to want those. Just watch that salt shaker, it comes out FAST! There is one restroom for all guests at the back, past the kitchen. It's clean and in good working condition.

This time, I took advantage of their vegetarian signatures section which was very much appreciated for my dietary preferences. Ain't nobody got time to wade through an entire menu to find something they can eat. I ultimately settled on the grilled veggie pocket and requested, IN ALL CAPS FOR EMPHASIS, no onions and mushrooms PLEASE. We also ordered their mac and cheese to share. I'll start with the good. The mac and cheese was DELICIOUS. It's covered in breadcrumbs and croutons, which is an interesting addition. The sauce is creamy and the noodles were a touch al dente. It was just as good when we warmed up the leftovers the following day. Unfortunately they completely disregarded my request for no onions or mushrooms. If they were unable to do that because the mix is pre-made, which is actually kinda gross as I imagine refrigeration is required and this defeats the purpose of "grilled", they could have done what other places have done which is CALL ME. What if I had an anaphylactic allergy? Fortunately, I don't, but was faced with the decision point of either just not having anything to eat other than a shared portion of mac and cheese or ripping through the pita and sifting through each of the vegetables individually to remove the onions and mushrooms which was EXCRUCIATING to do because the onions were tiny strips. Sigh. There was also no other component besides grilled veggies in a sauce in a pita and the bottom of the pita was soggy. Fuck this place. I will never order from here again.
