I have shopped ar Podestos for many years. I prefer smaller markets to huge superstores. They are…read morewell stocked and attentive to cuatomers. The meat market is amazing. Personal attention, meat weighed in front of you and wrapped according to your needs. Some prices seem high, but quality cant be beat. Ground beef tastes so fresh compared to prepackaged meats sold ellsewhere. They even can recommend how to prepare and cook different cuts of meat. Then there is the deli. Planning a small dinner partg. Stop there and get it all. Delicious. Then there are the cheeses. Wow. You really need to go to Podestos for a real shopping experience.

Went to the deli yesterday and it seems like it's all new people working in the deli since the…read morechange in ownership. Sadly we ended up leaving because we didn't want to wait. The deli staff used to be so quick that even during the busy lunch hours you didn't have to wait super long. I might try to go again in the future when it's less busy.

Must try place!!!…read more Delicious food! The service was nice. They offered suggestions since it was our first time. We stopped by after seeing a play at the stockton theater where a friend told us about this place. We decided to try it and it did not disappoint. Everything is made fresh to order. We ordered a You Fancy sandwich and a Ranch Baddie sandwich. One of the best Italian sandwich I've had. We will definitely be back soon to try another dish.

I was excited to try Nicky's Italian after seeing it online, but unfortunately my experience was…read morevery disappointing. We waited over 20 minutes for two cold sandwiches despite the restaurant being nearly empty. When the food finally arrived, the sandwiches were cold, bland, and lacked flavor. Considering the prices, I expected much better quality and freshness. What concerns me even more is the way the owner responds to negative reviews. Instead of taking customer feedback as an opportunity to improve, many of the responses come across as defensive, dismissive, and disrespectful. Reading those interactions makes it seem like customer concerns are not taken seriously. I don't mind paying premium prices when the food and service justify it, but neither did in this case. Based on my experience, I won't be returning.

Good lunch spot. We gave this place a try during lunch and hit the lunch rush. They have self-serve…read morekiosk available if you want to skip the line but no one seemed to be using it. The ordering process is simple: order at the counter, grab a table, and place your order number on top. The staff then delivers the food directly to you. Service was slow since there was only 1 person taking orders but our wait for the food was reasonable, it took about 20 minutes. We ordered three bowls of clam chowder and shared the prosciutto bianca styled pinsa pizza. The clam chowder was delicious and the pizza was good even though it got a bit hard as it cooled. Overall both dishes were delicious. The soup and pizza combination hit the spot.

The Stockton store went way downhill. This place used to be so good. Not sure what happened with…read morethe last manager. However, this manager and the team is horrible. The manager must be a family member, for the original owners to allow this location to go so far down. I stopped in today, after months. 6 months, checked my last review. Yes had an issue that time. Thought maybe the staff changed. I ordered on the kiosk as always, most of the staff looked at me repeatedly, finally, one offered to help, after a customer, a lady nicely told him I was first, he told me he will be with me after. After finishing, he said someone will get my ordered made. No one ever acknowledged my order. Some staff, kept going to the back, coming up front, looking at each other and laughing. So, since the shake machine is in the back, out of sight, I didn't trust them making it, so I stopped a staff member and asked to cancel my order. He did without an issue, because no one bother to start it. As the on duty manager was refunding me. A staff member came from the back and lowly asked him if it was canceled. He turned and said yes. So maybe, they already cleaned the machine and don't want to use it, not sure. He did offer a free pastry, I had one on my order, but told him no, it was ok. Always make a point to withhold your money, if you aren't treated as a wanted customer. Everything is too high nowadays. And unfortunately, employees think, their bosses pay them, regardless of money coming through the business. Also, after the previous manager, the food quality has gone way down. It's sad to see the place so empty, compared to how it was before. So disappointing!

Finally decided to visit this Stockton staple and boy am I glad I did. Let's dive in…read more.. Ambiance - This is a corner market with Italian items and the big draw is their sandwich counter. You walk in, fill out a form with what type of sandwich you want, hand it to a person when you're called, and then wait for your name to be called. Service - The staff were friendly, so no complaints here. Food - The food is great! I ordered a combo sandwich with turkey, hot salami, and jalapeño/cayenne cheddar and all the fixins and it was delicious! The Dutch crunch roll was tasty and it was a hearty sandwich! Everything tasted great. Overall, I can see why this is a Stockton staple. For $11 you get a damn good sandwich that's very filling. I would definitely return.

Honestly I'm so sad that I'm barely trying Genova for the first time since I am a Stockton native…read moreand my grandpa loved this place while I was growing up and I can see why. They really brought a fresh taste to Stockton and it sure needs a little Italian culture there lol. I have been to both New York and Italy so I have a lot to compare to and I really loved this place. Lots of fresh meat and the sandwiches are so good, the cannoli is also fresh and really good as well. Definitely going to go back again. Service was a little slow but in fairness they did have a long line, ambiance was very old Italian deli vibe. I wouldn't say Italy but I would say it's more leaving towards Brooklyn vibes.

They have everything to kick start your day! From donuts and sweets to delicious and juicy burgers…read moreand massive fries covered in either Chipotle or BBQ sauce, like their Uso and Hei Hei Fries! (Not sure on the correct spelling, lol). Not only does he make it all from scratch and the sauces are his own recipe, but the owner even remembers your face! I hadn't seen him in 2 years after trucking all over the States and only met him once before, and he remembered me when I walked in the door and asked me how I am. Support this man's dreams because his sweet and savory combos are going places! Maybe next, bottling his sauce to be sold on store shelves. No pictures to share because when you go in your senses are focused on all the goodies, drinks, and the amazing smells, that you will always forget to take a picture before diving into your meal.

What wasn't on the plan was getting food and taking it home or cooking. So luckily for us it wasn't too busy inside for dinning. Yes there were a lot of Togo orders. But nobody but us for the dine in order. So, I took that as a Major win for us. The menus on the back wall are kinda far to read, for me that is. But they also menus for you. This is our second time dinning in. We did last summer and ordered take out for the sandwiches on another visit. The place is pretty chill and the AC works pretty good, especially how hot Stockton gets during the Summer. There's tables and a large Tv for you. While we ate , I was watching the FIFA World Cup on the big screen. Cool that they had it on. The what time was non-existent, like boom Bam.

We both loved the food. Zero complaints from us. I actually got pretty freaking full. My daughter couldn't finish up her plate. So I did help out the cause by eating some of her rice. I just added it to my vermicelli bowl. So, yeah we'll definitely be back. Probably for some Banh Mi sandwiches they are hella good her BTW. Id say like my favorite in the 209. Well that's all folks.

The dining area is clean it's more like help yourself , your order first and pay then sit and wait till they bring it to you. I like to try the other things from their menu on my next visit.

The fillings were super fresh--crispy pickled veggies, cilantro, and generous layers of meats--and that extra pâté just took it over the top with so much rich flavor. Everything was well-balanced, not too heavy, and packed with texture in every bite. You can tell they don't skimp on quality here. It's a small, cozy shop with limited seating, but perfect for a quick grab-and-go. Definitely coming back to try more, but honestly... it'll be hard not to order the same thing again Highly recommend if you're craving something fresh, flavorful, and a little different from your typical sandwich! & the smoothies are also the best!
