Wonderful little sandwich shop tucked in a nook on 12th Street. Easy to miss if you're not looking for it, but what a gem when you are. The counter has a good selection of Italian meats and cheeses, and single portion foods like small lasagnas to take home and cook. I jones for a good meatball sub sometimes, and figured this was a good candidate to try out. Sooo right. Absolutely delicious homemade bread, and the meatballs were perfect. Also highly recommend the Porchetta sandwich with cooked zucchini. Along with a small but nice selection of wines, and meat/cheese platters for parties, this little place really represents more than its size implies.

Definition of a hidden gem! Their sandwiches, gelato (we've tried almost all the flavors by now), and imported Italian goods are truly unmatched in the city. We found out about it through Menomale (just down the street) and now have a new go-to lunch spot in the neighborhood. Service is quick and flavor is so so fresh. Check it out!!

My first time here! I live close enough, but honestly just forget it's here. It's a fantastic Italian deli and I'll be coming back!I came for fresh mozzarella and a variety of cured meats for a sandwich. I left with hot sopressata, hot capicola, and Genova salami, fresh mozzarella, and artichoke hearts. Everything was fantastic, but the marinated artichoke hearts were really the standout! It wasn't super acidic and tangy like I'm used to. It was mildly flavored and tender--yum!There were some other pickled items, plenty of Italian groceries, and some other cheeses. Please note parmigiano reggiano is a solid $15/lb! As of this review, Trader Joe's is selling the same imported cheese for $17/lb--this alone is a significant win.They serve sandwiches and some other deli items. Also plenty of desserts from cakes, frozen treats, and cannolli. Haven't had any of those, but I'll give it a go at some point.

Ordered three sandwiches from the NoMa location and was excited to try them given the great reviews and write-up in The Post. We got the Italian, Crudo, and Chicken Parmesan. The Italian and Crudo had pathetic amounts of meat. It was liking eating a bread sandwich. I've noticed this trend more and more where restaurants skimp on the protein, and it ruins otherwise good food. I don't know if it's a way of cutting costs or lack of quality control or carelessness, but it's disappointing and dishonest. These sandwiches aren't cheap, so the most basic expectation is that they will have an amount of meat suitable for dense bread. Subway does a better job of portioning at half the cost! If you need to cut corners to stay afloat, it's probably time to move on.

Absolutely DELICIOUS sandwiches and pizzas! The bread is the star of the show - best I've ever had! We had the meatball sandwich and the sopressata sandwich - would get both again!

Great place to stop in for lunch! It's strictly deli style so there is not any seating but our food was ready very fast. Very authentic Italian feel. We ordered the Italian and the chicken parmesan sandwiches. We were very impressed by the quality of the bread and other ingredients used. Very fresh and filling. We also purchased some cannoli which were some of the best shells we have had.

Wow!!! This place is the real deal. Homemade bread, fresh sliced high quality meats, and melt in your mouth mozzarella.. it doesn't get much better than this.Every time I travel, I look for a great Italian deli. I am so excited I found this place! I am not completely clear about what to call it, as the signage says something like "pizza and ice cream", but you won't miss it if you look for the gelato window facing the street.The staff (who sounded Italian) recommended I eat at a nearby park, and it was a wonderful place to enjoy my food (there are no tables in the store). I ordered 2 sandwiches, because I couldn't decide. One was prosciutto/mozz/basil/evoo, and it was ok. But the star of the show was the bufala - buffalo mozz/salami/roasted red peppers. Absolutely incredible. The bread, just wow! And the cheese was absolutely top notch also.I can't wait to try the house made pasta the next time I'm in town! These sandwiches literally made my week. Love, love, love this place!!!

Great little Italian shop - sandwiches are pretty good and gelato is delicious. Same ownership as menomale next door. Will definitely return to try more! They also have dry goods to purchase.

I wish I could give them 5 stars. If I had to recommend 1 deli in DC this would be it. This is an amazing traditional deli. I felt like a kid in a candy shop with the cannolis, traditional Italian beverages, and amazing menu. The service was great and I was recommended the prosciutto which was hand cut in front of me. 10/10, I'm going to come back and have everything on the menu.
