I had La Grotta Del Formaggio on my list for a long time until I finally decided to go and try their famous sandwiches. It was a 40-minute drive for me just to have a sandwich!nI know standing in line for 15–20 minutes for a sandwich might not be something everyone enjoys, but while I was in line I was checking out the other products on the shelves, so it wasn’t bad for me. We also grabbed a pack of coffee that looked really high quality. I also enjoyed watching the sandwiches being prepared.nI got a large Classico, and my partner got a large Calabrese Piccante since he loves spicy food. It comes with spicy salami, spicy capicollo, and hot banana peppers. Both sandwiches were fresh, but the Classico was a bit too olive-heavy for my taste which is just a personal preference. Next time I would probably ask for fewer olives.nThe ingredients were fresh and overall it was a good experience. However, since many people in the reviews say this is the best sandwich they’ve ever had, I should say that it wasn’t the best sandwich I’ve ever had — but it was definitely a fresh one and worth trying.nI think 4 stars would be a fair rating.
Stopped by La Grotta del Formaggio and tried the Classico sandwich. It was fresh, packed with quality Italian deli meats. The store also has a great selection of imported cheeses, cured meats, dried pasta, and other Italian groceries, so it’s worth browsing while you’re there.nnThe sandwich was $18, which is on the pricier side, but the ingredients were high quality and the portion was satisfying. I find the olives and artichoke too sour for my liking which overpowered the other flavours.
Stopped in today for a quick panini to go! Had many to choose from or a make your own feature. All ingredients were so fresh tasting and I’ll definitely be stopping again when I am in the area! Inpark lot right around the corner which was super convienent!
I really enjoyed the Fresco sandwich on the focaccia. Very delicious. However, the Chicken Parm sandwich was a little soggy. The line was long but it moved quickly. Only took 20 minutes total to get our food.
I’ve been buying their excellent pecorino Romano for years, but the sandwich deli has always been crowded. It’s due to the attention to detail when they make their paninis, and so when I was in the area at 10 am there was no lineup. I had a Classico on a Portuguese bun, toasted. Really tasty and I loved that they add balsamic vinegar and olive oil to the sandwich. A bit pricey and I wouldn’t make a habit of coming here but this was a nice opportunity to try. Washed down with a Brio soda, one of Italy’s great drinks.
