Had the Chicken Parmigiana it was amazing.... Super fresh and hot.. the pesto was a great add to the sandwich. As it was my first time, the staff was very welcoming and explained the menu very well... Will go back!! read more

Excellent, personable service. This place is the real deal with an interesting menu and great staff. Had the Dante. Very good. Love that they have Dr Browns available, like any great deli should! The only suggestion I would give is to have plan chips available, as the sandwich plus the pimento chips was flavor-overload. Location is good and glad to have an option in downtown Gulfport. The interior is clean. Can't wait to check try what's next on the menu! Give em a try! read more

Went in for lunch, had the daily special. Staff and service was exceptional. The owner came around and visited tables, made sure everything was good. Even the cashier was super friendly and knowledgeable. May sound strange for this type of resturant, but there are a lot of nuances that make the place special that you would not get otherwise. Things like i formation about the background of some of the food, desserts etc. The special I had was fantastic. Overall just a great place. Plenty of place to sit down inside or grab something to go. read more

Very good sandwich. Had the Bear, very well seasoned, aïoli was fantastic, and the bread was brought it together. lol will be going back to try more. read more

I have visited here a handful of times now and I cannot express how much I adore this place. For starters, the employees are the most friendly and welcoming we may have on the Gulf Coast. Everyone makes you feel at home and they're all happy to help with questions about the menu. The sandwiches are divine. On my most recent visit I had the Madrid. Jamón ibérico is such a special treat and the sandwich was absolute perfection. They have a wide variety of chips and sodas that you've probably never seen before. There is so much to choose from. My plan, and my recommendation to you, is to keep coming back until you've tried it all. This place is truly that special. They're open during the lunch hour and they have table seating and seats at the window. You can also order takeout which is super convenient. Prices may seem high for a sandwich place but honestly this is MORE than a sandwich place. You can't find ingredients like this anywhere else on the Gulf Coast. Trust me, the quality is so worth it! read more

One of my co-workers favorite place. I didn't go but I ordered the Sicily to go! Big sandwich! Loved the meats, cheese and veggies on here! Really good sandwich. It didn't take them long to order, eat and get back here! They love to eat there and I can't wait to go either! If the ambiance is as good as the sandwich this is a winner!!! It's located on Highway 49 so parking is limited but I'm sure there is nearby spots available. I would definitely eat there again! Cheers read more

Still a hidden gem in Gulfport! Real Italian sandwiches that are crave worthy! These are not sub sandwiches, these are creative culinary masterpieces. The customer service was excellent and the wait time on our order was perfect. Tavi was walking around and greeting customers and he is lovely. I can't wait to go back, there are so many delicious sandwiches on the menu! The selection of drinks and chips are amazing as well! It was like being in a European sandwich shop read more

Absolutely fabulous!!! The owner said his Reuben is second to none, and I tend to agree! I also ordered the charcuterie board (to go) and it is not just plopped in a styrofoam container, it comes on a lovely board with everything you need for social gathering (as displayed in picture below). And those deserts! Just and a whole lot of yummy! Can't wait to go back and try the homemade sangria!!! read more

Absolutely delicious. Best sandwiches I've ever had. Staff was so kind and knowledgeable. Can't say enough good things about this place.

My friend and I decided to try a new place in Gulfport after reading the reviews. We walked in and we're greeted by the most inviting gentlemen with one of the nicest smiles of seen upon entering an establishment He asked if it was her first time and indeed it was. He introduced himself as Tavi the owner. How fortunate for us! He walked us over to the display menu and explained each and every item as my mouth watered. We were told that all his products come from Spain, Italy, Portugal, Greece, Germany, etc., etc. very authentic. The atmosphere is very open and light. I can tell it won't be this way for very long as I could see as soon as this place catches on they'll be a waiting line outside. Several times, Mr. Tavi came to our table to chat and answer questions that I had. He never once seemed, rushed or irritated at my incessant questioning. Again so much knowledge about his food selections and origins. He has a wonderful beer selection, and oh my gosh, the chip selection is incredible I ordered the Rome and I forget what my friend ordered but both were equal equally delicious After finishing our meal, I walked over to the display case where some cheese and chorizo sausage, various olive selections were displayed. read more

I have driven past this place several times; my goodness all I can say is that my only regret is that I did not pop in sooner. It is the only place on the gulf coast that does the actual famous Roman style sandwiches. They have a lot of unique chip flavors and drinks that they import from Italy. The staff are always pleasant and the owner was very hands on and chatted guest up which is always nice to see. I will definitely pop in whenever I'm in the area. If you've been thinking of giving it a try, this is your sign. read more

Authentic and amazing! This shop has taken on a whole new level of the most beloved Italian sandwiches. The owner has put so much attention to the little things that make dining really special. He greets every customer and spends time introducing you to his very well curated menu. All of his meats, cheeses, and breads are sourced from their original European birthplace, and he makes the rest himself. He oversees and checks every meal and then follows up with the customer. The sandwiches we ordered were amazing, and I cant wait to return to try every single one! Pair your charcuterie or sandwich with chips from France, a European brew, or soda. Love this place! Gordon Ramsey would definitely approve! read more

We came here once and it was so authentic and delicious we came back 4 days later. It's a nice, open and airy spot in DT Gulfport with great artwork. The first time we were there we were greeted by the owner Tavi. He thoroughly described the menu to us and I decided on the Porchetta and he had the Sicily. The 2nd time we both had the Tuscany. All fantastic. And authentic it is - they source their breads, chips, and many of their drinks from Italy. The staff at the counter are so sweet! read more

Perfection!! The owner greeted us at the door and walked us through the menu, giving us an in-depth explanation of each sandwich. The staff was friendly and helpful. I got the Verona (meatball). It was amazing. Meatballs, pesto, cheese, grilled onions, sauce. It was sooo good. My hubby got the Cuban. He said it was the best he's ever eaten. 10/10 recommend. read more

Tavi's new spot in downtown Gulfport is a must try! We went for lunch and it was a good experience. Everything was fresh, tasty and packed full of flavor. My sandwich was Valtelinna and I would get this again (sandwich was served toasted and warm) yum! I also loved all the variety of chips that are not commonly found at the grocery store - Our tiramisu (from Italy) was wonderful! We asked the cashier if they made the baked goodies in house but they said it was from Italy! So that's cool. Overall ya can tell this is an upscale sandwich place and its quality. Ambiance is great, new and clean. read more

The owner was there when we arrived and walked us through each part of the menu, answered our questions and could tell he genuinely loved his products. We had the Porchetta and The Bear sandwiches. Both were fantastic, bold flavors and very filling. We would absolutely go back. read more

Writing this while sitting here enjoying my delicious sandwich. I got " The Sicily" and it does not disappoint. I was trying to decide between the "The Bear" and "The Sicily" so the guy taking my order flipped a coin for me. I have a feeling that either one would've been delicious from the tables of happy customers around me. The owner is very attentive to customers; greetings customers as they come in and going around the tables making sure everything is satisfactory. My Italian grandmother would've appreciated this happy little piece of Italy. Thank you Tavi for taking my tastebuds to her homeland. read more

Been a couple times before and sandwiches have always been very good, pricey though. Tried the Charcuterie board. I'm my opinion not worth the price. It was nice to try until we noticed the black stain or burnt etchings to the board. Was coming off. Lots of the products are very moist, that get put on the board. You get to keep the board but it's stained up and the black stuff is coming off. Gross! We were done. read more

What an incredible find in all places....Gulfport MS. Stopped two days for sandwiches. Each were better than the previous. My favorite was actually I don't know which was the favorite. Cute, clean owner greeted everyone that came in and visited tables. Wow do yourself a favor and support this establishment. You're welcome read more

Pleasantly surprised by the amazing sandwiches served here. Chicken parmigiano with vodka sauce is a must every time we go. We've tried other items here like the Ferrara with spicy sautéed onions and different types of melted cheese, and something else with roasted peppers and raclette cheese. The bread seems freshly made and you can taste the quality of the cheese. Huge open space with high ceilings, plenty of space and seating, plus clean bathrooms. Always plenty of service and staff to help out. One of many standout spots on 25th Ave. read more

Run, don't walk to this place! This sandwich shop was incredible! The owner came out and talked us through the menu and made suggestions on what to try. He explained that the sandwiches are exactly what you would get if you were in Rome and you truly did feel like you were eating in a cafe in Rome. read more

We had the Verona and Dante's Inferno. Both were amazing! The staff were polite, well informed, and helpful. We will be back!!

A wonderful new addition to the Gulfport area! There is nothing like it around here. They are newer, so have patience but trust me that it is worth the wait! The staff was very helpful, you order at the counter and get your drink, chips and dessert there, then your sandwich is made to order and brought to your table. I loved the interesting selections of Italian sodas, sparkling waters, and kettle chips. The place is not huge inside, but there were lots of table or bar type options available, or it would be an easy carry out option. The sandwich was delicious and everything was fresh and well put together. I will be back to try more! read more
