Where is the meat? Outside of the bread this sandwich should be free. Or I should be paid to eat this. Service was decent inside this tight-spaced sandwich spot. $21 for this is crazy work. Came, tried and will not return. Add depth to ur items. read more

Feh! Another Pisillo wannabe but you ain't gonna be Pisillo because you are NOT Pisillo! What sets Pisillo apart from all the other Italian sandwich shops in New York City is their authenticity. Short of Parisi, no other comparable sandwich shop has their meats imported from the old country, their breads from the old country, their cheeses from the old country. Here, everything is from New York bakeries, butcher shops, and produce markets. While not a bad thing, it loses me because real deal Italian products from Italy taste much better, even if it does cost more. The sandwich comes with a lot of meat, and the meat is good. Unfortunately, the bread is on the softer side. There is little to crunchiness, little to no resistance. It felt like it was too over proofed. As I mentioned in a previous Yelp review, the bread is what binds a sandwich together. A tasty bread brings it all together nicely, even if the meat is just okay. A lousy bread undoes it all, even if the meat is tasty. Bread on these sandwiches need to work, or you just call it an antipasto salad and call it a day. With that, I will stick with Pisillo for that authentic Italian vibe. This is not a bad sandwich, but not the best for value. read more

Happy to have discovered this little shop why on jury duty. Quick, efficient, tasty, fresh ingredients. If you don't feel in the mood for Chinese. read more

Wow, this little hole in the wall hits the mark. Just walking distance from the court house making it the perfect spot for downtown lawyers, jurors, and others. Let's dive in .... Venetto (5/5): This sandwich is pretty much everything I wanted. The bread came out warm, fresh, and soft. The avo, normally the king of all things millennial was fresh, but I was more taken aback by the roasted red pepper and artichoke. The arugula and house vinaigrette tie it so nicely together. I added fresh motz for $2 more and it all felt whole. Service (5/5): Quick service, brought me the food. Super friendly and helpful when ordering. TL;DR: A major win for City Hall and Downtown Manhattan. Affordable bite to eats are hard to find here. If I'm in the area would absolutely return. read more

Great little sandwich shop with super fresh meats, cheeses and lettuce accompanied by great dressings and bread. The fresh brewed unsweetened peach iced-tea was really good too!

Chipilo - a sandwich wrapped in tin foil - Sandwiches Near Me - New York, New York

Very good sandwiches. Cute little storefront close to all the courthouses and across from the park. Service was quick and good. Got 1/2 a sandwich (vegetarian option- Capone) and it was good. Hot peppers are hot but give the sandwich good taste. The dressing was good as well. I ate at the kids' park across the way. There are not many seats in the space. They have drinks too. Perfect for a not too heavy lunch. The Italian meat sandwiches all sound fantastic. read more

Really enjoyed my sandwich from here! I got the chipileno and it was surprisingly good! Great meat to bread ratio and while I think it could have been toasted a little longer - it was still delicious. The service was kind and the place gave a nice hole in the wall vibe. I will definitely be back soon. read more

I visited Chipilo on a Monday. Overall service was good and quick - I had my sandwich within 2 minutes of ordering. The staff was also very friendly. The sandwich itself was a bit bready - I got the Chipileno and they were a bit stingy with the Prosciutto. The meat to bread ratio was not ideal. The dressing did taste nice and the bread was very fresh. Overall good service, but the sandwich itself was just average. read more

Amazing sandwiches! Visited during jury duty and they made a feast on a classic sourdough roll. Highly recommended vs all the generic delis in the courthouse area. read more

Ohh man, I just started working down here and have been Yelping to find new lunch spots. I was craving a yummy sammich and came across this place that looked like it had fresh ingredients on delicious bread. Chipilo did not disappoint! It is a neat little hole in the wall across from Columbus Park. I went with the namesake sandwich the Chipileno with prosciutto, sopressata, red peppers, arugula, fresh mozzarella, and balsamic on fresh sourdough bread. You are asked if you want a half or whole, I went with the whole and have lunch leftover for tomorrow as well. Can't wait to try more sandwiches from this gem. read more

Best sandwich spot in Chinatown. Grab one (a full size is plenty) and chill at the park and watch dogs run and kids play. Life ain't bad.

Small high quality Italian sandwich shop. Excellent ingredients which are fresh and assembled to order. I usually get the whole size (vs. half) which can be a bit pricey depending on what you choose. Bread is usually fresh but have had a couple instances where it wasn't as fresh as I'd hoped. I tend to go with the sfilatino. They are happy to customize which is nice, I like their hot spread so often add it. All in all a fantastic option in the area if you're craving an Italian sandwich. read more

Chipilo - Chipileno Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - New York, New York

Love the quality of the breads, the contents and the nice service. However its pricey for a sandwich. Small hole in the wall place with maybe 5 seats. Half sandwiches run around $8-9 dollars and full is around $14 depending on what you order. Got the full Massimo (ham, olives, artichoke and smoked mozzarella) and I was hoping to eat it as 2 separate meals. I didnt last 2 hours before I devoured the other half. a delicious sandwich sitting right next to me will never last. read more

Stopped by on a hot evening to see what has become of what used to be Sharkey. Was surprised to see that another business was in operation already. Decided to pop in and give the sandwiches a try. I decided on the Stefano (smoked chicken, smoked mozzarella, roasted peppers, arugula, hot spread). The sandwich itself is pretty big. I didn't measure it, but I'd say it's probably a foot-long. First complaint. When I unwrapped my sandwich back home, it was uncut. I mean, it's not a big deal but what reason is there to not cut a sandwich that long? Would someone really pick up the whole foot and start chowing down? Also, the bread it is on is a very basic whole wheat (I think) bun. The bread was a bit dry actually. On first bite, my thought was where's the hot spread?? Upon inspection, there is SOME sort of sauce in the sandwich. I couldn't tell you what, but it sure wasn't hot sauce. Not even a hint of spiciness. Overall, unimpressive. The sandwich was super basic. Way too expensive. Came out to be $14 and change after taxes. I miss Sharkey's Cafe :( read more

The Chipileno is excellent. Easily shareable. The sesame seed semolina bread is fresh and can handle the dressing without getting mushy. Delivery is prompt and neatly and simply packaged. No unnecessary plastic containers. read more

The place is great!! Sandwiches made to perfection :) I'm a huge fan of my sandwiches but I'm a little picky with my food, so I hate it when I go to the store and they only have turkey ham and w.e but no pork so being able to go somewhere, where you can look at the menu and everything seems good it's not something I see every day. The people are so nice and friendly that when I asked if they had mayo because I didn't see it at all they said they'll get me some. So that's something I truly look for in a place. Great service, great food and my next must go to spot for sandwiches. read more

Excellent small Italian sandwich joint. I highly recommend this place if you are in the Judicial Square area. While the shop is extremely small, like no more than 6 customers inside at once small, the delicious sandwiches make up for it. Ask for them to heat up your sandwich, it makes it that much better. read more

The bread is SOOOOO delicious here! Everything is new to me! Ive never tried a cured ham I loved so much. Chipilo slices the meat practically into your mouth, it's so fresh!!! This is a great spot for lunch - they have Italian sandwiches, san pellegrinos, and even a salad bar! What else do you need? The decor and space is very cute and small. You can choose to munch on your scrumptious sandwich in 1 of 6 seats. There is a small table where you can even enjoy an intimate lunch. TLDR: Great quality meat + freshly sliced + delicious breads + amazing quality cheese + toppings and dressings and sauces = GREAT QUALITY AMAAZING SANDWICHES Pompelo san pellegrino Very dainty space Friendly staff read more

Chipilo - Chipileño on Semolina bread (extra $0.75 cents). The sandwich was slammin' and worth every penny. - Sandwiches Near Me - New York, New York

I was a huge fan of Sharkey's so I was sad to learn it closed--but Chipilo is really great! While the basic white bread should be upgraded a bit, the actual stuff in the sandwiches are very fresh and tasty. The portions are mega generous--so for that $12, you really are getting two meals, which is a solid deal. I'm happy now I don't want to walk down to Pisillo on Nassau when I'm having an Italian sandwich craving. The staff is super friendly as well. So happy a great sammie spot still remains in the hood! read more

Wish I took a picture of this Sandwich first, but after the first bite, I could not control myself!!! BEST ITALIAN SANDWICH I've had (Sorry Grandma!). Everything was so FRESH and well put together, I am thoroughly impressed! Awesome story behind this Sandwich shop idea too! I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!!! BTW I had the Marconi with their homemade Roasted peppers.. MMMM!! Sad to see a silly complaint on here about uncut bread and a whole wheat roll at that... People should know more about food before commenting. They made my sandwich on my all time favorite Semolina Bread.. but enough of my ranting.. Don't believe me... Try it! read more

Was working in the area and happened to see this new business pop up right at the very beginning of Mulberry St. & figure I'd check it out! What attracted me was the Huge Italian sandwiches sign!lol i was Pleasantly surprised! Old-school Italian sandwiches are what this place is all about and they knocked it out of the park, I went w with the recommended"Marconi" sandwich which consisted of smoked chicken sopressata fresh mozzarella avocado calabria and hot spread on super fresh semolina bread, outstanding! Not overloaded with meat, just perfect, The manager Manny said all the meats and cheeses are imported from Italy and the bread delivered fresh, there's only one table and a counter w stools to devour these delectable sandwiches in a small mom and pop jount. my coworker and I were fortunate enough to grab the table by the window, I left one star off because I felt it was a tad bit pricey but it is great quality and I look forward to coming back soon! read more

Noticed this Italian sandwich shop and came in on a whim. Asked the staff for recommendations and he recommended the first two items on the menu. I got the "Marconi" sandwich and it was delicious. Only downside is that the sandwiches are kind of pricey. It's a very small shop but the interior is very stylish. Will definitely try other sandwiches once the craving hits. read more
