"New York City is one of those places where it doesn't matter what your favorite cuisine is, or what you're in the mood for at any particular moment, there's plenty of choices. Whether you're looking for a quick bite or you love chasing down some of NYC's most difficult-to-make restaurant reservations, the options might as well be endless. If you're leaning toward the former, one of the city's many Italian delis is always a great option for not only grabbing a great sandwich, but meats, cheeses, salads, sauces, and imports to take home for later."
"When we here at Tasting Table assembled a list of the best meatball sandwiches in the U.S., Faicco's Italian Specialties was on it. To be fair, there are a lot of outstanding sandwiches on the menu here, with customer favorites including the chicken cutlet, pesto, and mozzarella hero along with the version that adds broccoli rabe, and - of course - the traditional Italian sub. And when we say this place is a favorite, that's not an exaggeration."
"That's all a must - what's an Italian deli without those kinds of choices, after all? That helped define our search for the best delis, but we didn't stop there. In order to make our list, shops needed to be the beating heart of the community. We looked for the places that have been around for decades, that have been handed down through generations of family ownership, and that have become the places locals rely on. The following spots made the cut."
New York City provides an abundance of dining choices, including many Italian delis ideal for quick bites or take-home provisions. Italian delis supply sandwiches, meats, cheeses, salads, sauces, and imported specialty items. The best delis produce house-made items such as mozzarella and fresh meatballs, and import a variety of European products. Selection emphasizes community roots, longevity, family ownership, and local reliance. Faicco's Italian Specialties exemplifies a historic shop that began as a butcher in 1900 and now blends old-school deli traditions with modern sandwich offerings and popular signature heroes.
