Dattilo's Delicatessen

Great Italian specialty spot if your looking for imported Italian groceries and a solid sandwich. When I was a kid my mother used to take me here often for her favorite Mortadella and at the time it was one of the only places you could find Nutella. They still sell Italian playing cards and Italian cornicello to hang so you can ward off the evil eye aka malocchio. Fresh produce, dairy/cheeses, olives, Italian coffees, juices, olive oil, sweets, panettone, fresh bread, deli meats, pints of Bassett's Ice Cream etc., all sold with help from a great staff. On my last visit I asked for an Italian hoagie with proscuitto and extra sharp provolone. I believe the guy told me it also came with hot capicola, genoa salami and pepperoni. It took a little bit to get my sandwich as they were very busy at the deli counter, but it was worth the wait. My sandwich was packed with meat and on a fresh roll (which I believe came from Corropolese, but don't quote me on it). Lots of spicy bite from the hot capicola, great kick from the sharp provolone and wonderful flavor from the proscuitto. Overall, it was a solid above average premium meat Italian hoagie.I took home some Italian wafer cookies, chocolate filled Croissants and a bottle of Brioschi which kicks butt if you ever need all natural quick effervescent digestive relief. (Thankfully I don't have problem often, but when I do, I thank God this stuff exists!) Dattilo's is an older Italian market and doesn't look fancy, but to me it's still a very relevant staple to the Northeast community run by good people.

I went to Dattilo's because I heard that they have a very good cheesesteak and my fist visit/experience was great, customer service was very good, wait time was good place was clean and offered a variety of snacks amongst other things. The bread was a fresh seeded roll with a good chew the steak was chopped well and not overly done I got fried onions and cooper sharp with lettuce and tomato all ingredients very well put together. I enjoyed it down to last bite. I will be back to try their hoagies as well.

My favorite place!! Coffee and food its great best Italian place around northeast Philly

I love this place. The staff is super friendly. They use high-quality ingredients. The sandwiches are very tasty, and I adore their cheeseburger. I usually order in the morning by phone, and in 10 minutes, I swing by on my way and everything is ready. It's a wonderful spot for lovers of Italian products and food.

VERY expensive. Slow but friendly service. Decent quality foods. Old, dirty, worn-out store. Very limited parking.As is happening to the rest of Northeast Philly, the neighborhood continues to deteriorate as low class people continue to populate it. This zip code used to be SO much nicer!

This is a great little store. Meats were very tasty and reasonably priced, and the perfectly bite sized pepper shooters and grilled long hots were both spot on. The only thing I didn't care for were the roasted red peppers, which were watery with an off putting bitter aftertaste. The people who work here are extremely friendly and helpful.

Whether for individual sandwiches or catering, Datillo's Delicatessan makes a terrific sandwich with fresh ingredients and excellent portions. I ordered a variety of hoagies from Tuna, Turkey, Italian, and Grilled Vegetables for the staff at Cooper Hospital, whose first responders went above and beyond to care for immediate family members who were hospitalized with Covid. Daillos's kindly cut sandwiches into thirds and individually wrapped and labeled sandwiches, prior to placing them securely wrapped on trays. The feedback from the doctors and nurses was nothing short of delightful. A couple delectable desserts were ordered as well, such as cupcakes in a cup, which is exactly what the name says- two cupcakes in a cup. Absolutely great and hit the spot for those with a sweet tooth. Datillo's is reasonably priced and direct sacrifice quality. I highly recommend this superb staple.

I moved out of Philadelphia in 1988. That being said I have been a patron of Dattilo's for over thirty five years and still today every time I am in the neighborhood, my visits revolve around stopping at Dattilo's. Butcher shop, Deli, Sandwiches, rolls, Italian delicacies. I don't think the people know what a special place they have here. Datillos's belongs in a category all by themselves! You guys are the best!

What a great find!!! My daughter was getting married and we were tasked (with little notice, as these things happen ) to supply breakfast and lunch for the wedding party. We came up from Maryland to scout the area to find a "Gem" that could supply my Daughter's vision for food. We started making the rounds in the car and came upon Dattilo's on a corner. Being from Philly many decades ago, we fell in love as soon as we walked in. Old world style and service. I could go on for hours about how good the food was, the quality and quantity and how everyone raved over the selection. Anthony made up a great menu to cover some of our out of the box needs and his whole team went above our expectations. I can't wait for our next family adventure in the old neighborhood (Philly family) to come back and chow down again. A real benchmark for that neighborhood.

They have an extensive menu. Great sandwiches , generous chicken fingers & crispy fries in a hurry! My husband enjoys the steak sandwiches as does his 94 year old mom, son & daughter-in-law & our 7 & 11 year old granddaughters. All orders with different toppings & piping hot on delicious rolls.
