"Delis are to food lovers what candy stores are to kids - an unparalleled smorgasbord of delicious morsels. So, what sets an Italian deli apart from its counterparts? Well, Italian delis tend to focus on regional foods, like Italian meats (including prosciutto, salami, and mortadella), Italian cheeses (like fresh mozzarella, provolone, pecorino, and Asiago), pasta dishes (think gnocchi, ravioli, and lasagna, plus house-made sauces), and, of course, Italian sandwiches."
"When researching the best Italian delis around, Lioni Italian Heroes just kept popping up on social media, review sites, and in food publications. Plus, more than one foodie YouTuber has featured it on their channel. This spot is also said, by critics and customers alike, to have the best fresh and creamy mozzarella in the city. Comments on delivery sites like Grubhub and Seamless often state that, although prices are on the higher side, the sandwiches at this Brooklyn deli are very large."

Selection of leading U.S. Italian delis emphasized heavy positive press and overwhelmingly high customer ratings on review platforms and delivery sites. Lioni Italian Heroes in Brooklyn is repeatedly noted across social media and reviews for more than 150 overstuffed heroes, exemplary fresh mozzarella, and large sandwich portions that many customers find worth higher prices.
