    Half Cappicola Sandwich
    Jason P.

    Since 1969, Steve's Place in Newington has been serving food such as sandwiches and pasta to locals, and it's one of the most popular independent sandwich shops in the area. Living nearby, I've been to Steve's a few times over the years, but I've lost track of it in recent times. Yelp Friend Elisa F recently reviewed her family's long time favorite - Steve's half cappicola grinder. Her review and picture of a grinder with my preferred ratio of meat to fresh vegetables captured my attention. By phone this week, I ordered a half cappicola with lettuce, tomatoes, provolone, seasoning and mayo for lunch. It was ready when I arrived and I ate it in the small outside area. "Half" is a relative term. This half was fifty percent of a giant. It had high quality good salty cappicola, great tasting juicy vegetables and a fresh grinder roll. I'm all about sandwiches with high quality ingredients in proportion to the other ingredients, and this fit the bill. Nothing fancy. Just well executed. Four Stars for a very well executed sandwich with quality ingredients and good service.

    This was my favorite sandwich shop when they had a second location in Rocky Hill! Since that's been closed, I've ventured to their original Newington location a few times. It's very similar, inside decor & all. Definitely an old school sandwich shop vibe! Steve's was actually my grandfather's favorite sandwich shop and he would bring me a "half cappy" whenever he would visit. Since then, that's been my favorite sandwich! Piled with lots of capicola, provolone, lettuce, tomato and oil & vinegar - a classic!

    So far I've had the Turkey grinder. Corned beef breakfast special and a bacon egg and cheese. Everything has been truly delicious and the staff is so kind!

    Chicken Cutlet Sandwich

    Absolute joke of a sandwich. Don't order here if you want any actual chicken! There are better restaurants on the same street. Used to order Steve's Place all the time and have been disappointed every time in the last year. No value and not the best taste.

    Wanted a quick bite and looked up Yelp. Thank you Yelpers, you never fail me. What a gem of a place this is. Named so impressive- Steve's place. This is truly a place which I wish was in my street, where I can be proud to say as my hangout spot. Excellent service. Redsox fans.Amazing food. What' else do you need? Would visit here if I'm in town

    Fantastic breakfast. Friendly people - real people. It's a grinder shop, but don't be fooled. The breakfast is really fast and really good.

Conveniently located between Route 9 and the Berlin Turnpike, they've been serving up hot dogs, sausages, deli meats and cheeses, a big selection of house-smoked meats, prepared foods, steaks, ground beef, seafood, chicken and sandwiches since 1964. They sell bundled packages of burgers, steaks, and chicken to feed an army at your next barbecue. And if you happen to be in the market for frozen cubes of goat, well, they have that too. In all seriousness, their product selection is quite impressive. We stopped by yesterday and picked up two sandwiches, a container of chili and a half sour pickle for $26. My turkey and pepper jack cheese sandwich was excellent. First of all, the amount of fresh and delicious turkey was very impressive, I mean it was really piled sky high on a soft and fresh bulkie roll. My wife's ham and cheese was an equally generous sandwich. Half a sandwich was all we needed for lunch. Oh, and that pickle was pretty darned good too. I haven't tried the chili yet, but based on the overall excellence of our experience, I'm sure it will be fantastic.

They take the time to get to know what your needs are and have value bundles for every budget. We went an ala carte and chose a selection of TBone, Chicken, Pork Chops and deli meat all cut to our preference. We saved quite a lot compared to our normal supermarket buy basically for the same quality! We will be back!

Usually I come here with my husband to get their delicious, fresh and homemade Italian bread and their fresh cuts of Italian meats and cheeses. However this time around I went without my husband to surprise him for his birthday. I am definitely not Italian in the slightest so me ordering or evening pronouncing Italian meats was definitely a challenge. Luckily ALL the workers at Public Market came to my rescue! Before ordering an antipasto I asked what they would recommend for four people to have when we go to a winery. They were so accommodating and recommended I get freshly cut Italian meats and cheeses instead of ordering an antipasto due to the small amount of people I was going to have with me. In the future I am DEFINITELY ordering one when I have a larger party. Everyone was so nice to me and excited that I was ordering my first freshly cut prosciutto and soppressata it was so sweet and I felt comfortable enough to ask questions and not feel rushed. When we ended up going to the winery the amounts of meats and cheeses I ended up getting was the PERFECT amount for four people and so delicious!! I am so impressed with this deli and I'm so happy I live only a few minutes away! My husband and I will be coming back for years to come!

The taste was off, as well as the consistency of the meat. I don't know how to describe it but the meat came apart (after cooked).

We placed orders for 12 of us over the phone today, we went to pick up the goods around an hour later. I got their Italian Sandwich this time. Previously I've had several of the salads. I think collectively my office has had their entire menu. From sandwiches, to salads, to pizzas, to lasagna and more. Every single meal has always been super fresh, where all you can hear is "mmmmmMmmmms..." My lunch was served on a freshly baked Italian hoagie roll, filled with roasted peppers, ham, tomatoes, mixed greens, capicola and provolone cheese. In addition to each and every single ingredient being super fresh, this was also a very large portion. I could have easily shared the other half with someone else, had it on another day or ate it right after the first portion... which one did I do? The restaurant it's self is little and very cute, it was full at 12:00 o'clock today. If you're looking for a quick and fresh lunch or dinner around the Wethersfield area, Lenoci's will check each of your boxes.
