a cup of coffee on a desk
Katherine B.

This deli is great. It's very convenient for me because it's right next door from where I work. They have a great selection for breakfast and lunch. The counter people are always super friendly. The owner is great! My favorite thing here is the iced tea (maybe a little to obsessed).

Well burnt and red in the inside

Ardito's has one of the best Meatball Parm Heros I've had in a long time! Lots of meatballs, nice…read moreamount of sauce, not too much mozz so that you can appreciate the meatballs, and it's about a foot long! The sauce reminds me of the sauce that a neighbor's mom (she's Italian and a great cook!) used to use in her lasagna when I was growing up. I'm dying to try theirs to see if it's as good as hers! Unfortunately, I never know when they have it on the menu for takeout. What I don't like about them is that the only menu they have is the catering one. Each time I go, I never know how much I'm spending or what they have on their menu for take out orders (when is there lasagna?). I've also heard their eggplant parm and chicken parm heros are good. I'll try them the next time I'm in the mood for a parm hero. As it is, I only go there when I'm in the mood for a meatball hero. If there was a takeout menu, I'd probably go more often. They're a mom and pop (or poss. nonna i nonno) place and have imported foods there for sale, and really good fresh mozz. I was going to pick up one of their imported Panattone when I was there today but forgot! Yum!

A great italian deli is a thing of beauty, and Ardito's hits it on the head! When you walk in the…read moredoor, the aroma just takes you away, no fancy stuff here, just great food and people! Just make sure you are hungry! The spicy italian hero is off the hook, and I love their chicken parm, always a little extra sauce and grated cheese! oh yea, we'll be back!

This has been my go to place for heros since I moved to Merrick over a decade ago. My favorite…read morecold sandwich is the All American with the works. It's a great combination of cold cuts that just synchronizes so well with the American cheese and oil, vinegar, spice concoction of the works. As for the hot sandwiches the eggplant parm has been my favorite. The eggplant is smooth and binds with the red sauce perfectly. Today they released a new contender for the best hot sandwich with a catchy name: The Rolling Roaster. It had roast beef soaked in Au jus enhanced with extra beef tallow blanketed with a layer of homemade cheese. The result was the juiciest roast beef with a deep beef flavor. The soft bread interior did a good job catching all of the excess juices as it was not as messy as I anticipated. Hope this stays on the regular menu as I will be adding it to my order rotation. My Hero is old school only accepting cash or checks. Along with that comes the great service and charm that makes this place what it is. In recent years they have made an improvement in the parking situation. Now you can park in the carvel lot next door.

I hate to say this, but, today I ordered an All American after having been away from My Hero for a…read morewhile, and... it was not the quality I've come to expect from them. The sandwich was the same size as always and was decently filled, though there seemed to me more ham and less roast beef or turkey than normal. The most glaring part was the taste overall - the cold cuts and cheese didn't quite taste the same, but most glaringly, the mayo did not taste like Admiration Heavy Mayo, which has always kind of what made their sandwiches really pop. Hopefully, it was just an off day, but the last time I was there, the chicken club also had some issues.
