I usually don't write reviews, but I felt I needed to let the company and customers know about the excellent service I always receive from Anthony Borja at DeCicco's Supermarket in Brewster. Every time I go there and need help, Anthony is always willing to assist me with a smile and a great attitude. He is respectful, kind, and ready to help. In a supermarket where customers often have to find things by themselves, getting helpful and friendly assistance makes a big difference. What I appreciate the most is his consistency. Every time I visit, Anthony is the same -- helpful, pleasant, and professional. I truly appreciate his excellent customer service. read more

Came in on a Tuesday around 6pm. Our group came for the calzone and twists plus the hot food bar. Spinach twist was great. Calzone good too. And the pizza slices were quite good and large. We ate in the little dining/beer area. The bartender there was super friendly and kept checking on us. Really like this spot for a quick bite and brew! Will definitely make this a go to when in the area. read more

Putnam county's version on Stew Leonard's. It's not as fun, or as as expansive but it's a great place locally for fresh food. I'm not happy with their bakery, which has really slipped over the years and we have gotten stale and disgusting pastries from them in the past 2 years but they are an excellent source for a real variety of clean and wholesome foods. Expansive varieties of fresh cheeses, meats and cooked meals. It's clean and I feel like a happy customer when we shop here. It's my go-to place when we are having company or I am making a dish for an event because I know I can find what I need and I know it will be fresh and tasty. If they can pick up their bakery standards and stop raising prices on the public, they will be 5 stars all the way but...they might be making a profit but the general public isn't making the income to keep up with this inflation and they are about to squeeze the public out of shopping there. Come on DeCiccos, we love shopping here, please don't price out your average customer. read more

I ordered a half tray of eggplant parm. There food is very good. The problem I have is I got a very shallow half tray not a standard half tray. It cost $55. I ordered it so I felt obligated to pay for, just want future customers to be aware. read more

I like DeCicco's and come here from time to time if I can't find what I want at Caraluzzi's in Danbury. The store has a great selection, is well staffed with helpful employees and is super clean. For basics, it's fine but their prepared foods have been hit and miss. I always like their bakery items but sometimes their hot food is not great, including some stuffed fish I had one time which was so inedible that it went into the garbage disposal after two bites. I also had some chicken that wasn't great so if you're looking at prepared foods, choose carefully. They score high points for fruits and vegetables and their selections of cheeses, olives and cured meats is top notch. If you want to make a charcuterie board, come here! They have a lot of great drink options too. If you like beer, the selection is extensive. I also like that they have lots of specialty Italian sodas and little cans of Coke and other mixers. They have a great aisle that has everything you need if you're hosting a specialty cocktail event, so whenever we are having a party, DeCicco's is our go-to place for supplies. Overall, they do a great job. There may be a thing or two that isn't great but nobody's perfect and they get so much right here and do it in such a great way, I have to recommend this place. read more

Had been a loyal customer for years. Recently went, one of the owners, a short guy definitely not young, approached me exhorting me about something..since I was taken by surprise... and not understanding what he was referring to, his admonishment by his tone and tenor was enough for me to take all items in the shopping cart and put them back. Discussed it with my family of 5 adults. We will never patronize that store ever again. We find the same products in other supermarkets for comparable prices. He who does not honor you does not deserve your business. Again.. no clue what he was referring to. Twerp of a person. read more

What's there Not to like here?? Perhaps their prices? The quality of their food demands it??? The place is huge, each department is well displayed and plentiful, and ALL so clean. Let start by their Sushi. The chef behind the counter is happy to make anything you want and always thanks you for taking some home. Produce, might be a bit pricey, I think the quality is exceptional. Everything we bought was fresh, tasty and sweet. Deli is amazing, looking so good, fresh, appetizing and plentiful, you want to buy everything! Bakery, I try not to look at it, so many choices, so well displayed. Fish department is also to die for. All in all, you can spend a small fortune, but you will not be disappointed, service in all departments is equally well served, they aim to please. It's a real treat! read more

This place is great. Went here for the first time the other day. What a selection! So many stations with fresh food. Everything we bought was fantastic. Short ribs, cod, pastries, and more. Why bother with the madness and congestion of Trader Joe's. read more

Lately I've noticed many employees' having difficulty speaking English, and service particularly at the bakery has been very slow. Today I was astonished when I purchased a $36 birthday cake for my wife, and the man said he was unable to write "Happy Birthday." The assistant manager made matters worse by telling me the man wasn't "trained," and yet offered no solution, like maybe finding someone who could. or maybe discount the cake? Nope. DeCicco you've got to be kidding me. You have to be trained to write Happy Birthday???????? My kids did that when they were 5. DeCicco & Sons charges top dollar for everything and should be better than this. read more

While their selection is very good theres just something that really bothers me about this store. The butchers trim steaks and beef , then they throw the fat in the garbage. I asked the manager if he could save me some as I wanted to make bird food with it. He said he would leave it for me . When I went to pick it up it had a price tag on it of eight dollars and change. I said but you were going to throw this out, they said yes but we cant give it to you. Wow really scumbag move considering I shop there at least twice a week. So I paid for the fat then went to Kobackers , I asked their butcher for some fat that they had trimmed . He gave me a bag three times the size and for free . Good selection or not I will only be buying the bare minimum from deccicos from now on . Not a customer friendly store. read more

I was looking for lunch for my son while we were on the road. We were out of town so he didn't want fast food exactly. I found DeCicco and sons on Yelp so we stopped there. It's a super nice market that's fancier than Whole Foods. I got a cup of coffee and son got the smoothie from the little cafe. He picked up some sushi that looked great and was good for supermarket sushi. They have a hot bar here, you can order sandwiches, salads, sushis, bakery. This place is awesome and I wished they would open one up in Orlando. read more

An update to my last review after bringing home an incredible haul of holiday goodies. The quality of the roast beef from the deli department was worth the price. And the price was high. The man who was stocking the dairy/butter section needed a mention because he went back and retrieved another container of Kerry Gold when he saw that I was disappointed that there were none left. (shout out to him). I'm removing the video of the beer expert upon his request. I had his permission to post it but he's become camera shy so I will be obliging here. A few more days before Christmas and there's still time to grab some of those special brews for the beer drinker in your life.remember, if you lose your BEERings- turn left for the biggest wall of imported and micro brewery offerings for miles. read more

The fish counter was perfect. Good selection and good service. Will never come back to this deli counter. Two of us in front of the counter, four people behind the counter and just continued to wait with not even eye contact. After ten minutes, I left and went directly to Caraluzzis where the customer is the priority. read more

Reminds me of a regional Whole Foods Very clean, will organize store. Fantastic craft beer section. Nice selection of fresh fish, meats, vegetables. Price of beef seemed a little high compared to other local grocery stores. The house brand Italian sausage is phenomenal! Overall nice grocery store Helpful employees read more

Updating this review 5 years later. Decided to give them a second chance on that sandwich. More surprising than what could pass as a $6.50 appetizer in 2019, was that it had now become a $10.50 amuse bouche! Nearly doubling your costs in a five year span is astronomical. read more

This store is good for convenience when shopping at Kohls, and it has a very good cheese selection, but not much else to offer. The hot food bar "appears" good, but ribs are often dry and lack flavor. The soups are not worth the $10 price tag. Most items are more costly than other local places. I bought a bottle of Pinot Grigio, and it was overly sweet. I discarded it after a couple of sips. To their credit, I always find the cashiers to be friendly. For quality shopping, I'd recommend the two supermarkets in Carmel. read more

BEWARE FOOD POISONING! The food sits out all day, Ive seen multiple flies on the seafood. One time I came here and I saw a huge dirty bucket filled with tomato sauce sitting in a wheelbarrow in the middle of the store. Also the employees should be required to wear belts, sagging and butt cracks from working at a "quality" grocery store is not expected. I came years ago and had issues with the Chinese manager and she had a huge attitude problem she refused to give me my money back after I tried to return expired groceries that I had purchased earlier that day. She told me that all sales are final and that I should've known it was expired even tho they had it on the shelf read more

DeCicco & Sons is a small chain of gourmet grocery stores that opened in The Bronx, New York in 1973. It was founded by Italian immigrant brothers John, Joseph and Frank DeCicco, who came to America in 1958. The brothers had a deep knowledge and love of food and were immediately able to find employment at various New York City produce stands and butcher shops. Eventually they decided to go into business together and open their own grocery store in the Bronx called "DeCicco Food Market". Eventually John and Joseph went into business with their sons John Jr., Joseph Jr., and Chris, and in 2011 they founded the small chain "DeCicco & Sons" which has ten locations throughout Westchester and Putnam Counties. The DeCicco Family is dedicated to giving consumers quality food products. Each location features fresh local produce, meat, and seafood. Fresh mozzarella is hand-pulled every day and there are also several imported artisanal cheeses from Europe. Baked goods and hot foods are also prepared fresh on the premises. In addition to their food, DeCicco's is also well-known for their extensive craft beer selection. Some breweries even brew special releases exclusively for sale at DeCicco's. Each location also comes equipped with a craft beer bar, and one even has a full bocce court. Frank DeCicco is also still in the grocery business with his family. His chain is referred to as "DeCicco Family Markets" and features five locations. I've been to the location in Brewster a number of times over the years and never leave disappointed. My most recent trip was a few days ago. My visit came just before Easter weekend, so I grabbed some imported artisanal Italian chocolate Easter eggs as well as a Limoncello Cream-Filled Italian Easter Cake. From the cheese department, I grabbed some fresh mozzarella, smoked scamorza, imported provolone, imported Pecorino Romano, and some fancy crackers. I also scored some Italian chicken sausages from the meat department. I saved the best for last: Beer!! I picked out seven nice looking beers, but the one I'm most looking forward to opening is a Barrel-Aged Stout made exclusively for DeCicco's by Finback Brewery. Before leaving, I stopped at the craft beer bar and had pours of Maine Beer Company's "Dinner" (Double IPA) and Firestone Walker Brewing's "Parabola" (Barrel-Aged Stout) 2016 Vintage. DeCicco's continues to wow me! read more

Italian supermarket at an overpriced amount. Come in come all! Huge selection of beers so that's a must! DeCicco is basically an Italian Whole Foods (which is a great thing). They have all sorts of Italian products imported straight from Italy and a huge selection of everything. Truthfully I can't complain I love everything about the supermarket just some stuff is ridiculously priced. You can find all kinds of panettone, pandoro, torroni (at a high price of course) but you can get them all without having to go to Italy. Delicious custom olive bar. Pizzas made on the spot (these were just ok for my taste, at least the full pies). Salumeria and formaggi. Bakery. It has it all! Even an area where you can purchase your own pizza and beer on tap and sit and eat it. The beer selection is outstanding. All types of beer and they always have some type of deal. Oddly enough they had a great cereal sale too! Bottom line: if you're craving Italy come to DeCicco you won't be disappointed. read more

I could not be happier with my bakery order. Vanessa in the Brewster bakery location was fabulous. She went above and beyond as did her manager to execute my vision for my Dad's 75th birthday. I'm a regular shopper in this location so it was great that I could get all of the sweets locally without going to the Bronx. Everyone loved it all and most were shocked yet so happy to hear it was from our Brewster Decicco's. I highly recommend them, they'll definitely do their best to execute a special request or suggest what they can. Jen the store manager in Brewster is always there to also help and the entire team is great! Thank you so much for helping me with all of our desserts for my Dad's party. Everything was fabulous! Thank you!!! read more

DeCicco is an Italian-ish grocery mini-chain, one of nine stores in upstate NY, this one well-located in a large shopping complex right next to Southeast Train station and an entrance to I-84. Everyone seems to note the excellent beer selection -- as well they should. It is unbelievably well curated. The folks who work in that department seem to know every microbrew produced within 4,000 square miles. They are totally happy to geek out with a fellow beer lover and suggest interesting brews to try depending on taste and mood. These folks deserve at least 20 Yelp stars. I am not all that fond of the grocery store's prepared foods, however, unlike some other reviewers, it seems. Bakery selections are ok, but sometimes stale or just not made with excellent ingredients as they would be at a proper bakery like Brewster Pastry (and even for a few less Lira in some cases). Salads, rotisserie chicken and other prepared items are mostly pleasant, about on par with a Whole Foods salad bar. The supermarket sushi is predictably bad (gummy, hard rice, just-edible-enough-grade fish), the wakame seaweed salads are, less expectedly, also bad, made with an excessive amount of sweetener... some sticky corn syrupy substance from what I can tell. I like, but do not love, the meat and seafood departments, where in our experience, offerings have been of decent quality. At those prices, though, one would expect more than decent quality; in NYC, the same prices would fetch the premium product in the West Village or UWS. (For reference: Think Ottomanelli or Citarella pricing, Whole Foods quality.) I should note that DeCicco's seafood department is one of the few I've found in the area that (sometimes) sells oysters -- though only one variety on my recent visit. Big Y in New Milford had four (Mystics, Bluepoints, Wellfleets and something else) around the same time. Overall: DeCicco's is a fun place to browse, a fun place to pick up some awesome (and of course spendy) microbrews, olives, and maybe a slightly harder to find cheese. It's not a place where I plan to regularly purchase all of my groceries. read more

Great store, pizza is much better then you'd expect from a grocery store. The sushi is always fresh and if they don't have what you want they'll roll it up real quick for you. Always recommend! read more

The bar is the best. Doug Nate Scott and Evan are all super chill and know what to offer you to satisfy your thirst.

I visited this store solely because i hear they have a smoothie bar. The man and especially young lady made me wait there while they were staring at me hoping that (i guess) i would walk away. They did not have any other customers. The young lady finally helped me and had a snotty attitude for absolutely no reason. On top on that she was not wearing gloves... read more

Great hot and cold ready made food. Clean. Great produce. Friendly staff, great imported beer selection

This review is *just* for the chopped salad station, which I continue to return to like a glutton for punishment. DeCicco's offers these extremely large, incredibly fresh, delicious chopped salads for $7.99. I would eat them every single day if it were feasible. What's the problem, you ask? The problem is that (80% of the time) the staff assigned to the chopped salad station has not been properly trained or does not speak English. It's very difficult to communicate your order. The employee will look at the sign to see what the ingredients in your chosen salad should be and they seem super bewildered (Hey DeCicco's, maybe post that in Spanish to help out your staff!). Then there's this awkward period where you're pointing at things and over emphasizing, "Tomatoes. Yes, tomatoes." On the back wall, there are pics of what is supposed to be on the salad, but that's not really helpful to the employee who is 5 ft away, trying to communicate with a line of customers through hand gestures, and facing in the opposite direction. DeCicco's, move the pictures and/or train people more thoroughly. The whole experience takes way more time than it should and everyone (staff and customers) seem frustrated by the experience. Additionally, my salad is always missing ingredients or just off. I had the Cobb salad today. The avocado was missing (even though the employee who translated for the employee preparing my salad asked me 2x if I wanted avocado and I said yes), there was a ton of bacon, and it was swimming in salad dressing. Speaking for myself and my co-workers, please step up your game at the chopped salad station. We want to love you, we really do. read more

Anyone familiar with Wegmans, Stew Leonards or Whole Foods will be happy to find DeCicco & Sons just a quick jump off of Interstate 84 just past the junction with I-684 in Putnam County, NY. My wife and I actually lucked into finding this spot when we stopped to eat at the more well known Eveready Diner that is located in the same plaza. If you've been to any of the stores I mentioned above you will be comfortable and happy here. DeCicco is basically an Italian influenced mashup of those three. They have just about anything you can think of: hot food bar, salad bar, full bakery, on-site made pizzas and strombolis, deli station for sandwiches, hot seafood bar, homemade soups, prepared foods in the deli case ready to heat and eat and so much more. That so much more includes a full bar in the front part of the store. It's kind of hidden amongst all the clutter of a grocery store but it's there and they are serving up some good local brews and wines. Which in the Hudson Valley of New York means good quality. The bar area has plenty of seating to order up a libation and spread out the food you just bought for a pretty satisfying quick, casual dinner. Exit 19 off I-84 in New York State. If you're driving by give them a look. read more

Great selection of meat, cheese, produce, fish, and everything else in the middle ... Oh and and the ENTIRE back wall dedicated to beer! The whole bar area is a pretty awesome idea - I'm always here with my daughter (plus I'm currently 16 weeks Prego) so there is no bar sampling for me! My only gripe today was the $3.99 Broccolini that I bought was okay but I got the most decent looking one out of the bunches that were there. Most of them were limp and in their way to being too old to cook... At that price I expected a nice firm bunch! Just saying.... On a positive note I bought the pretzel buns for my burgers I made tonight and the buns were awesome! read more

Excellent mid sized grocery store with plenty of specialty brands in addition to regular fair as well. The only potential drawback is that it's a little pricey. Overall, however, it's not bad at all. The produce in particular is terrific and the place is so clean you can eat off the floor which matters to me. The only drawback is the prices but then again you get what you pay for! read more

I was extra thrilled with this particular store as it was big, clean and well organized. I have a great Deccicos in my area...just tiny compared to the Brewster location. Beautiful custom salads are made to order with several healthy add ons. I was there on the run so I am planning a return visit for a more thorough experience. read more
