Tried Santoros for the first time. Although the Yelp reviews led me to have high expectations, I…read moremostly found disappointment. It is a small place, quite messy, with a lot of activity (baking cookies, slicing meats) that had little to do with customer service. As I was the only customer there (at 1:25 in the afternoon) i was ignored (despite my attempts to converse) until I called out for a chicken parmigiana sandwich to go. The bread is fresh, but the sandwich merely had small pieces of breaded chicken--essentially just little bites, like one would cut for a toddler. Sauce was underwhelming and surprisingly (and disappointingly) sweet. I also purchased some premade penne with marinara for dinner. Again, the marinara was very dull...and sweet. The sandwich cost $14.75, and the penne was another $11.00. There were no pizza slices, no arancini. Rather disappointing and bare. In fact, the lemon cookie I bought, which was NOT mind blowing in any sense, was the single best thing I bought there. I know good Italian deli, and yes, I have been to Sicily on several occasions. This was more like a Subway attempt at Italian food. I do not expect to go back.

I've enjoyed halal bowls in NYC and wanted one before heading back to the house. For takeout, I ordered the Regular Halal Combo Platter ($12.99 plus tax) with tender pieces beef gyro & chicken, orange rice, lettuce, tomatoes, green peppers, onions, white sauce and two lines of spicy red sauce, warm soft pita triangles included. The portion size was pretty generous filling up the round foil container. The ingredients and the flavors of savory and spicy came together very well. I would definitely come back here!

Each time I order, the actual wait is 10-20…read moreminutes longer than the expected time, and the last two times, there's only been 2 people working and 4-5 parties standing there waiting for food. The food is solid but it's a bit pricey and my last time here was the final time. After standing in the store for the usual extra 15-20 minutes beyond the estimated time, a staff member gave us the sandwiches we ordered but said they ran out of soup and could refund us. We stood there and waited another 10 minutes until he came around again and asked if we needed anything. I said yes, we're waiting for the refund. He got another coworker to process the refund for us. She was typing in front of a computer for a few minutes and said she processed it. My mistake that I took her for her word without requesting a refund receipt as the refund never processed. By the time we got home to eat (after stopping at the grocery store for soup instead), the four sandwiches were cold. I won't be back again but if you go, tack on a lot of time before you go to pick up your food and if you get a refund, press for a receipt.

As a quick-service spot, it's perfect for a satisfying, no-fuss meal. We placed a takeout order, and the food was prepared and ready quickly. Impressively, even after delivery, the sandwiches arrived in great shape, the bread was toasted well and didn't get soggy, despite being packed with ingredients. I ordered the BBQ Brisket Grilled Cheese with chipotle mayo. The sandwich was good, hitting the right notes for a solid grilled cheese. The cheese itself had a nice flavor and achieved that ideal melted texture, perfectly gooey without being messy or congealed. For the price and portion, it was satisfying. My one note is that the flavor of the BBQ brisket was quite subtle and got a bit lost behind the cheese and the decent, smoky chipotle mayo. The mayo did pair well and added a nice kick. Overall, Melty is a reliable spot for a hearty, well-executed grilled cheese. It's the kind of place you go when that specific craving hits, and it delivers a consistently good version of the classic.

Here you can create your own unique salad with a good variety of salad makings including your basic lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers plus potato salads, fruits and a great variety of other salad toppings, vegetables and dressings.

You'll also find some nice treats in their bakery area such as muffins and cookies. Their deli carries Boar's Head deli meats which is a very good meat company and their cheeses are excellent as well.

The employees looked a bit frazzled- the line was mostly new customers (like me) who saw the coverage. Everyone was friendly and sandwiches are made to order- they cut the meat as they maybe each order. It took just about an hour to get to the counter- there were at least 30 people ahead of me. I ordered the Italian sub without veggies, a pint of olives and meatballs with cheese and bread. Everything was delicious. Sandwich was excellent-meatballs were amazing. I would call ahead of order online in the future- and let some time pass as it will likely be busy like this for awhile. They use their space well. Lots of free parking.

Very disappointing experience at Tutto Italiano…read more I waited in a massive line because of all the hype surrounding the place and specifically went there for the meatballs. Brought them home expecting authentic homemade Italian meatballs and instead got something that tasted like a mass produced frozen food service product. The texture was spongy, oddly uniform, and completely lacking the flavor and character of real homemade meatballs. Honestly, they reminded me of the kind of reheated catering tray meatballs you get at low end buffets or grocery store prepared food sections. What made it worse was the attitude. The owner came across as rude and dismissive when customers raised concerns, and judging by many of the other reviews, that does not seem uncommon. For a place with this kind of reputation, the quality was shockingly underwhelming. I genuinely do not understand the hype.
