Delicious. Fantastic sandwiches. Great spot. Parking is the only real concern! Otherwise, wonderful.

Stopped in for a quick to go lunch in between appointments. Parking is tough but it's worth it! The place is super cute and the sandwich I got was giant and very tasty! The staff was friendly! read more

Ordered the cotto sandwich and chicken salad. 40$ which is definitely overpriced. Food tasted fine but the meat on the sandwich smelled old. Nice area and seating. read more

Great sandwich with lots of flavor. They have a gluten free bread/wrap, but I felt that it would be better to have ordered the sandwich as a salad. The bread is crumbly (not uncommon for gluten free bread but still it makes it unwieldy) and flavorless and dry and overall takes away from the very very good sandwich fillings. I say this as someone who has been gluten free for five years and does actually enjoy a lot of gluten free breads. read more

I entered here not expecting much but the two items I got were amazing. Their sausage pizza was addictive from first bite. The crust is thin, flaky, and has a nice buttery taste The sausage was delicious. It was light on sauce and cheese but was perfect. I also got the packaged tiramisu in the fridge and it was amazingly delicious. Also addictive. The decor is cute and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Parking is through a narrow paved passage next to the building and is a bit tight but it is a beach spot. read more

Great sandwich's! People running the store were very nice. Take away meals as well as pastas and cheese and pasteries! All good

My husband was feeling hungry so we stopped here for the first time - we are out of Townes. I had the Ludo, house made marinated eggplant, mozzarella, tomato, arugula with oil and vinegar in a wrap. Yum! My husband ordered the Bologna with mozzarella, tomato, arugulas and oil and vinegar. Both were delicious. Service was excellent! read more

I love this place. I live up the street so how did I miss out on their gem. Beyond me. Sit outside with a glass of wine in summer and enjoy the great sandwich's, pizza and frozen Italian ice in an orange or lemon. And if you want to take the best eggplant parmigiana you have ever eaten,home, it's in The freezer. I now walk down the street and have it on standby in my freezer. I am half Italian and I know authentic when I taste it. Not easy to get the eggplant that tender and tasty. Great way to unwind and have some wine and charcuterie. Or pick up sandwiches for the beach or when on the way to Newport film on Thursday night. The owners are lovely and they are local. Support these people. read more

I work near the base, so options for "clean" food is a bit scarce. I got tired of Marco's and their dense bread, so figured I'd give this a try. Was ok and I liked it. I had the Milano and the chicken was pretty tasty. Took me about 30 mins back and forth to work. Given the price, probably a once in a while thing. read more

Got take out for family- staff was welcoming. They have some gluten free items, didn't work bc of gluten and dairy allergies but they tried hard! my guests loved the high end high flavor sandwiches! read more

Went for lunch, which was great. I had the P&C. Service was great. Enede up buying there house made ravioli and pesto to take home for dinner and that was great too! read more

Back again and will continue coming back as frequently as possible. The pizza, the sandwiches, the prepared meals, the Illy coffee, the service, everything.. it's all dynamite. Run don't walk, try this place, you won't regret it. Closed at 2pm Sundays and closed Mondays. read more

I ate here last year, and it was absolutely incredible. Hadn't been back until today, and the service was great, however the food I received could not have been further from what I had before. We ordered paninis, one with chicken and one with prosciutto. The chicken was overly fried and super dry, and the prosciutto was just deli ham, not prosciutto. To top it off, there wasn't even any bread included in the order! They gave us store-bought tortillas instead of bread, without us knowing until we brought it back home to eat. I'm not sure what happened, or if today is just an off-day, but what we received was just not acceptable, especially considering the price. read more

Charming store & restaurant! We stopped in to grab a quick breakfast and had an incredible pizza with delicious salami and cheese. The service was wonderful and quick. Very happy we came here! read more

Excellent sandwiches- very fresh ingredients. Friendly service. Free parking our back.

This place was cute. We were craving something light for lunch. I'm a light eater but my husband is usually left hungry woth my usual Healthy choices. Lol. However, this was a great compromise. He ate a P&C and was satisfied. I had one of the veggie sandwiches and it was perfect!! We will be returning here and hopefully enjoying some wine as well. They had so many options! read more

Got the P&C sandwich for lunch. The place seemed packed but I guess everyone was waiting for their take out. So it's better to order in advance. The sandwich itself tasted pretty good. The bread was warm and toasted and all the ingredients in the sandwich tasted fresh. Overall I enjoyed my sandwich. Casual ambiance. Service was good. Not much parking outside. read more

Great service, great selection of high quality ingredients that can be hard to find elsewhere, friendly staff and fair prices.

We live up the street from this place. I started by getting a lasagna for my husband and his buddy on a day I didn't want to cook when I got home from work. It was a very authentic dish! On a walk to the beach a month later I asked my husband to pop in and get me a pastry and coffee. I had him try a bite of my apricot croissant and he's been calling everyday to see if they have any! It was that good. He also gets their coffee each time and doesn't need sugar because he says it's good coffee. He ordered the prosciutto sandwich and we've gotten it 4 times since, it's so large we share it - fresh and delicious! Half is perfect for me it's so filling. read more

Hidden gem! Well, sort of hidden... This place is really one-of-a-kind in this area. Take-and-heat soups and entrees, Meats and Cheeses and antipasto...espresso beverages, and made-to-order options too! Oh, they also have amazing looking fresh made pasta, sweets, and lots of imported nonperishables and drinks. I grabbed a P&C sandwich, which was this amazing 'Italian taco' with fresh mozzarella, greens, tomato, prosciutto...oil and vinegar. It was spectacular. I tried a hot latte, which was fabulous, and for takeaway I got a block of imported Fontina cheese. Friendly service made it the perfect experience. Plenty of parking in the rear of the building too! read more

It was my first time today. I heard about it through a friend and being I had no time to prepare dinner, I thought I would try it out. I bought a big meat lasagna and a few other Italian delicacies. The lasagna was truly outstanding. Great flavor. You could tell it was prepared with care. My family had seconds and we still had 1/3 of it left which will fuel some lunches. I would definitely try this place out for a true Italian experience read more

The food is outstanding in addition to being a great value!! We had two pasta dishes that were worthy of a fine restaurant. You can even get pizza crusts for a quick dinner. read more

Fresh food, creative sandwiches but needs real bread, if the sandwiches were served with good Italian Bread this place would be five stars!

Beautiful little Italian meats, cheeses, sandwiches and prepared foods. Authentic and tasty! You can eat there but the parking is horrible I'll walk and enjoy! read more

Got a sandwich there and it was really good- the only thing was the menu had like 8 things and the place obviously had a lot more but there was no list or anything. High quality deli. read more

A hidden gem and the closest authentic Italian deli/grocer to downtown Newport. The piadines are amazing, I've had them all and the only one I didn't like was the Torino which was too salty for me. The Genova and Verdure are amazing options if you want to skip the meat. You also have to get some of their arugula pesto to go - it's amazing. However, the lasagnas are really salty. If you grab one of the little tables outside and ask for a Spritz, they'll bring you a perfectly mixed Aperol spritz with a super fresh blood orange slice. The location is in a difficult spot to get to (parking is tough during the season, very busy road) so best to walk/ride your bike here. It would be awesome if they could put up a high fence of some kind out front of the tables to block the view of the busy road. read more

Amazingly authentic little cafe/deli! We were surprised to find this little slice of Italy in Newport. The Piadine sandwiches are amazing! The staff are also very nice and hospitable. Definitely stop by for a quick bite or grab things for a beach picnic. read more

What a gem! We got fresh baked bread flown from Italy which was delicious, the chicken salad was amazing, and the meatball and manicotti was also great. My coffee was very delicious as well.

What an amazing find! We just enjoyed two P&C sandwiches made with the most wonderful prosciutto, artichokes, mozzarella, tomatoes, arugula and oil & vinegar on a wonderful imported Italian flatbread! We had take home dinners last night. The food is divine! We've just moved to Portsmouth. This will be a regular stop every week! read more

Well folks, this small authentic store has found its way to my heart through my stomach.

Bottega Bocconi - Something for everyone here, the apricot croissants are amazing!!! - Italian Near Me - Middletown, Rhode Island

Yummy Italian deli with an exceptionally friendly staff. If you're looking for a quick meal in Newport this is perfect for you.

I cannot even begin to tell all how amazing this deli is. I have been a steady patron now for several months and i could not be happier with the fresh ingrediants that i have found here. My hubby is Italian and I am Irish so i have a lot to prove but Victorio has guided me expertly in creating the most fabilous Italian dishes. I could not be mote pleased to have a local Italian deli to guide me thru the process of making the most amazing Italian dishes. I have alot to prove and my most recent creation was a huge hit thanks to the guidance of Victorrio. He is so helpful and always gives me the best culinary advice. My most recent eggplant parmissian was a huge hit and i did not even have any left overs. His sauce is fabulous and the fresh Mosserella was to die for. I come here once a week and always find something new to create the most fabulous Italian dishes. I can not thank him enough for his expert advice and the most amazing imported ingrediants. Oh and the pizza dough is spectacular! I just throw my stuff on and bake it and everyone is in awe! But Victorrio gets all the credit really. Thank you from a little Irish girl trying to impress my Italian inlaws! I could not be happier with the dishes i am able to create thanks to the real deal Italian master! read more

BEST SANDWICH IN RHODE ISLAND!!!!!!!! 11/10. you must try, a slice of italy with local roots

Sitting outside in their bistro chairs eating our sandwiches was a divine way to spend an afternoon before heading back for a beach walk. Great illy coffee, hot and running barista machine (taste approved by European husband), cute shop, easy and straight forward with delicious sandwiches (thin prosciutto yummm) and amazing bread loaves with semolina (flour from Italy). We devoured the loaf when we got home ;) Definitely want to go back to try some of their other baked goods, prepared sauces and things in fridge for easy dinner option! read more
