I first heard about Anthony's Paninoteca because it sponsored my son's SIBFL football team. His jersey had "Anthony's Paninoteca" printed across the front. When I posted a photo of him on Facebook, I received so many comments asking whether I had tried it and telling me that they make the best sandwiches. Naturally, I was intrigued! Now, we're hooked. Our favorites are the Panino Golfetta, The Godfather, the AGV, The Anthony's, and the Panino Mortadella. The ingredients in each sandwich are so thoughtfully selected, and every combination works perfectly together. The sandwiches are also enormous. I compare getting Anthony's to Christmas morning. When we order it the night before, I actually look forward to waking up because I know there will be leftover sandwiches waiting for me in the refrigerator. There is nothing better than opening the fridge the next morning and finding Anthony's ready to enjoy again. read more

No flavor in all 3 sandwiches we ordered and small portions. Chicken vodka sandwich was dry with not enough sauce to even taste, ribeye sandwich tasted only like the cheese, and sausage sandwich tasted like cardboard. Bread was good though. And they didn't give me the extra side of sauce I ordered and paid for. Not a big deal, but it adds salt to the wound. read more

Time Out Market Union Square location: Excited to have this amazing Paninoteca in NYC (original location in Staten Island). Huge sandwiches stuffed with meat and cheese (also veg options). I ordered the Time Out (warm roast beef, mozz, sauteed onion and gravy $16)... The second time I ordered it, I got the dark delicious gravy on the side. I ate half at Time Out which has tons of seating and had a lot left over. Thank you Anthony, Milton and the rest of the team for this fantastic sandwich experience. Fabulous customer service. Run to Time Out Market USQ for their incredible Italian sandwiches. read more

Sandwiches made to perfection!! Ordered the Anthony's and the homemade roast pork was so juicy and tender and went perfectly with the sharp provolone and hot peppers. The bread was perfectly crispy and held its structure despite the stock. Also ordered the panino mortadella which was also perfection. The bread was reminiscent of what I've had in Italy with generous portions of burrata, mortadella and pistachio pesto. Service was quick but we also went on a Friday at 7:30pm. There is a small counter along the window with a few seats for dining in. Both sandwiches were very sizable and were plenty to share amongst three people. Can't wait to come back here to try more! read more

My cousin who lives in Staten Island ordered sandwiches (all different kinds) for her daughter's birthday which I ate 3 different ones which were all delicious. Last week she sent me a picture of Shrimp po boy which she said it was a great and tasty sandwich. I was craving one of your sandwich (I live in New Jersey) took a ride over to my cousins house and we ordered 3 different types of sandwiches which all were great.. If it wasn't for the cost of going over the Outerbridge Crossing I would go there every day to get something to eat. So for now when I go visit family I will make sure to pick up something to eat for the next day.. Great place.. read more

Sandwich's are not what is expected. Eggplant parm had no cheese. Eggplant was not good. would never order again.

Got the Anthony sandwich, it was very good but they didn't put in the dipping sauce, or napkins. With broccoli rabe , 1/2 lb. of potato salad $31.50! They could have put in the sauce and napkins read more

I don't know where to begin with this place!!!! The food is amazing & every sandwich is made with the utmost attention & love. Of course, I have my favorites & my go-tos. The others that I've sampled have all been good, but certain ones just strike you perfectly! There's a consistent lunch crowd here, so you know the food is moving & none of the ingredients have been sitting around. They're a little pricy for every day, but a treat every week or so is well worth it & will not disappoint! I'm getting hungry just writing this review! read more

Best roast beef sandwich we ever had! Will definitely be back soon to try something new. The owner is very friendly. Great neighborhood sandwich shop. Thanks for being in our neighborhood. read more

I love this place. John at the bar is amazing! This guy is the best. Would not want any other bartender.

We're so glad we stopped by after visiting the cemetery. I highly recommend the #13 Maria, Staten Island Italy a la vodka and the Phil Leonardo. Other family members ordered their build your own and did the mozzarella and roasted red peppers and we all loved our sandwiches. I wish we had this quality on the west coast. I can't wait to come back and hope they keep doing well! Service was nice and there were a few barstool seats facing out of the store. We were able to park on the street, best to carpool. read more

food is very good, but attitude on the phone seems to be customers don't matter. they need better customer service.

Anthony's may not be known for pizza BUT he makes a sfincione pizza. Its crispy airy crust is smeared with a savory sauce of onions, tomatoes, and oregano and then topped with grated cheese and breadcrumbs. It is my pizza heaven. read more

We came in to try the porchetta which is a must to have. Pork , broccoli rabe , fresh mozzarella and pecorino crema. We moved from SI to TN last year, my wife follows his sandwich making FB videos. We took one look at the porchetta & knew we had to pick one up while home for a holiday. It was TOTALLY worth the 6 month wait . One of the best sandwiches we've ever had. It's very filling and for two people . It's a small place but big menu. WILL be back next trip up!! read more

Today we ordered sandwiches, 4 in total. One cold: the Luigi; and three hot: the Gino, the Joey Muscle and the special of a Ruben pastrami (on a hero). It was for a pick up and the total order with a tip was $90. Three of the four sandwiches were good and I was looking forward to my pastrami but when we sat to have them, immediately after pick up, I was highly disappointed. A lot of people have said that the pastrami was fantastic here but I have to say, it was truly horrible. The meat was extremely dry and tasteless. I thought I was me, but my family tasted it also and agreed with me. This sandwich cost the most at $21.50. I threw away the entire thing. This was the second time we ordered from there and honestly I don't think there will be a third. read more

Just received an order and very disappointed. I ordered a buffalo chicken sandwich and I received a sandwich which was equivalent to one chicken finger on it and a ton of lettuce. For the price - definitely not worth it. read more

well iI had the pastrami sandwich the first time about three months ago was good not bad but a few days ago was brutal dried up and tasteless for the price of over 20.00 dollars it should at least be consistent not sure if I would return because not the only one that I know with a similar experience ......... read more

I really wanted to like this spot. I really did. It just wasn't in the cards. Staten Island is filled with amazing Pizza. Close to the best pizza in the USA from just this island. I know all about the history of the Brooklyn Italian Americans and their diaspora across the Verrazano to the Island. That explains why pizza is elite in Shaolin, which also explains why the only NYC borough are full of Trumpers. As for the roast beef sangwich game, it's not yet up to speed. I don't know what it is with Italian delis trying their hand in the roast beef game, but every roast beef sandwich I've eaten from an Italian deli are either mid or trash. I've tried every roast beef/mozz/gravy from Hoboken to Hackensack and Brooklyn to Staten Island. I watched all the Staten Island food TikToks from the Scarlotta twins to Cug. Anthony's was top of their list. Anytime I decide to cross the Bayonne Bridge, I have to decide if it's worth the toll, so Denino's would be the 1st reason why I would cross. Today, I decided to bypass Denino's and try either Royal Crown Bakery or Anthony's. Cug said Anthony's is the spot so I rolled the dice. Anthony seems to be a good guy and I'm sure his other sandwiches are elite, but roast beef with caramelized onions did not hit. I took my RB to the Mall to eat in the food court. At first smell, it was odd. It already didn't smell like I was going to enjoy it. I cracked it open and the first thing I noticed was a burnt roll. I was going to ask them to toast it before making the sandwich but I hesitated and just let Anthony do his thing. I would commend myself for not asking because it would have been burnt beyond had I asked. The question I have is, why would he even make a sandwich with that trash roll? I'm truly offended that my $18 wasn't good enough for him to assume this wasn't the product that he wanted his customers to experience. I don't know if it's the way the onions were caramelized or if the gravy was the cause of the unpleasant smell/taste. Either way, I have no idea why this would be mentioned in the NY Times. I had to throw away the other half. Nothing was salvageable. I'm going to stick with Jersey sandwiches and only cross the Bayonne for Denino's, Lee's, and Jimmy Max's. G's is legit though. read more

Anthony’s Paninoteca - Not gonna lie. Pretty skimpy on the $18 RB sandwich (top) Have you seen a random Ribeye cheese steak? $15 for 3x meat (bottom). - Italian Near Me - Staten Island, New York

I had a craving for a classic pastrami sandwich that was local on Staten Island and finally found one. K cut me a piece to try. It was delicious and melted in my mouth. I found the service was excellent! Too bad they only make pastrami on Wednesday's but well worth it. They earned another satisfied customer. I plan on trying their other sandwiches. Now I don't have to travel into Manhattan to satisfy my cravings. read more

Anthony’s Paninoteca - Classic pastrami sandwich. Delicious! - Italian Near Me - Staten Island, New York

First time customer.Excellent pastrami sandwich . Will have to try something else next time

Anthony's is one of those deli's that mixes the old school classic sandwiches with a modern feel. Small shop but packs a punch. The roast beef with carmelized onions and gravy was my jam. So good. I am used to having fiore's in hoboken and this one may not be that but it is in the ballpark. The voc with chicken cutlet, capicola, and gardiniera was my other choice. So good. Nice combo of spicy, tangy, fatty deliciousness. The bread has a nice crunch to it but thin layer of crunch rather than break your tooth or scratch the top of your mouth style bread. I would 100% recommend if in the area. read more

For an area that has plenty of sandwich spots you need to do something to stand out. and this place does it. when you look online the prices are definitely up there, but it is worth every bite. The store is clean and looks amazing watching them make my sandwich made my mouth water. I got the 2 Guns sandwich which was an amazing choice it wasn't over packed with meat which is good it's not too overpowering with one meat all of them come together in this sandwich perfectly. the price is worth it with the quality of meat it's not no store brand crap. The bread was amazing toasted and held up to everything. Will definitely be coming back might be my new favorite shop. read more

Great sandwich i had! Pastrami and swiss on rye bread with mustard and russian dressing on the side. I like it with a little mustard! Bread was slightly toasted, really good sandwich, highly recommend! read more

Unbelievable porketta sandwich. Topped it with the broccoli rabe and mozzarella. Best sandwich I've had in a long time. I don't get to this part of the world very often, but if I lived near this place I would have to change my name to Goodyear Blimp, because I'd come here everyday! read more

Was finally lucky enough to be in Staten Island on a Thursday and snag the freshly made Porchetta w broccoli rabe sandwich !! was incredible! So tasty and flavorful. The cutie who works there is always sweet and a pleasure to deal with ... We also had a chicken parm , couldn't finish it , that was super crispy, with a light sauce on crunchy bread .. cant wait to go back read more

Wayyyyy too expensive for what you're getting. I ordered one sandwich and a side order of prosciutto balls... $43... for what they were charging, I thought the sandwich would be very large (it was just an average sized hero) and the prosciutto ball would be more than three tiny misshapen quarter-sized balls wrapped in aluminum foil. Up charges for everything read more

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. The best salad I've had in Staten Island after moving here two years ago. And I eat A LOT of salad. Chicken MILANENSE. Phenomenal. A picture would have served no justice. (Review by Rosaria C.) read more
