Cornucopia

If you have lived in Italy, or spent any extended period of time in Italy, this store will feel familiar and welcoming. The store is filled with grocer specialties imported mostly from Italy, but there are also some imports from surrounding European countries. The real stars are the deli and desserts. This is not a bargain basement meat establishment. The meat and cheese are imported from overseas, and the prices are going to reflect that, but when I ate the sandwich it was so nicely balanced. HUGE plus for having mozzarella di bufala on the caprese for my Napoli people . Nice fresh baked desserts, and on demand filled cannolis. The owner is an absolute gem. I will be frequenting this establishment for many times to come! No pictures because I scarfed my food down.

Saturday 11/11/2023My friend highly recommended this spot for their Italian pastrami sandwich which he regarded as "the best sandwich ever".The service was solid but based on what I had heard and saw it really seems like the customer service is very friendly and great. I got the Italian pastrami sandwich which ended up being 15$ which is pretty expensive in my opinion for a smaller sandwich. I didn't think the sandwich was the "best ever" (like my friend said) but it was still good nonetheless.

Walking in I was thrown off because it wasn't the typical deli or food store, there are a lot of products in a small space. But once I adjusted, and saw all the Italian ingredients they had I was half sold. The owner had the kindest way about him, over all good energy. He made me to delicious cannolis and a sandwich. I have tried the Pastrami Sandwhich and Bresaola, I enjoyed both. That huge because I have always not like sandwiches but these are different the bread is fresh and the balsamic vinegar is good quality. I will say I think there may be a lack of consistency in with how the sandwiches are based on what ingredients are there.The products are more expensive than they would be at the grocery store by a significant amount. That's not to say I would never buy from there again, but I would only get items I can't get anywhere else.

Get a fresh cannoli and peach soda and you'll be fine. The owner is chill. Love this little shop.

I love this place so much you have no idea. The best Italian sandwiches you can get out of Italy, and the store has so many unique Italian things you can't get anywhere else. The owner is such a sweetheart and saves snacks for neighborhood dogs. I bring visitors here all the time

You want an experience? Visit this place ASAP! The owner is so unbelievably kind and truly enjoys sharing simple, beautiful food with his customers. He will hand crank his deli slicer and create the most delicious sandwiches. Picked up some coffee from different regions of Italy. Just an amazing experience and place. I wish I had this place back home. Very warm and welcoming.

I always come back here every time I'm back in DC. Absolute top quality sandwiches and ingredients. They also have a cute little market with all the Italian specialities you'd ever want. Great owner/staff as well. If you're in the mood for an Italian sandwich, this is the place.

Amazing f!! Excellent customer service!!I highly recommend this place! I had Bresaola and Cannoli; C'est si bon!!!

We are new to the DMV and found this store on a whim. It is amazing. We ordered several sandwiches, cookies, jam, and some other packaged products. High recommend! This place is a gem!

Top notch Italian specialty store. Santino is so welcoming and friendly. I asked about pastiera (Neapolitan Easter pie) and he told me he was to receive some the next day from Italy. Sure enough, I picked it up and shared it with my Italian-American family on Easter. HUGH HIT! Great shop! Great service! Grazie, Santino!
