Amazing! The Alfie, Debo, and Meatball sub did NOT disappoint. My husband claims the Alfie was the "worst", but he still would rate it a 9.5!!! That's how good these sandwiches are! Get the pasta salad as a side! read more

This is my favorite sandwich place ever. If you come to New Orleans with me during the day, go ahead and assume we're coming here and/or St. Pizza. It's the vibes. It's the flavors that they put together. It's the people that work here that actually want to be here. Get the Gaga on focaccia. Get anything with their pimento cheese on it. Get the pimento cheese to go. Always get the special, it doesn't matter what the special is - you're going to be like holy shit this is amazing. Dammit now I want Francolinis read more

I've been stalking Francolini's for quite some time now. I think I've liked almost every post they've shared on their IG. Interestingly, I went there twice to buy gift cards without actually purchasing a sandwich. The workers were always so friendly! Finally the day has come, I decided to buy a sandwich, and it did not disappoint! I ordered the Uncle John...WOW! The crumbled hot Italian sausage had a wonderful flavor, you can taste the Italian seasoning, complemented by the sautéed bell peppers and onions. And that provolone cheese pull!!? YUM! Let's not forget the seeded sub that held everything together perfectly. Only regret I have is that I wish I had added extra jalapeños. Definitely recommend read more

Definitely an institution! Lots of recs from locals to try this place and it didn't disappoint. Was nervous it'd be super busy so ordered online and picked up in store. We tried 2 sandwiches and they were both incredible! There are such creative options and many drinks to choose from as well. Staff are super friendly. Extra seating on patio in the back. Will be back! read more

We were craving sandwiches and found this place by accident! Walk in, take a ticket and order when your ticket has been called. We waited about 10 minutes. I ordered The Italian (added red hot peppers), and my husband ordered The Raphael. They give your bread choices: seeded, unseeded or focaccia. Both sandwiches were really good a filled with lots of meats, cheese and all the fixings! Add the vinaigrette and it's as delicious as it is filling. The peppers add a nice sweet kick. I was only able to eat half of mine and took the other half home. They also sell bags of chips, all kinds of sodas, seltzers and teas, pasta salads and desserts. We shared a bag of Maui sweet onion chips and one of Batterina's chocolate chip cookie cheesecakes! The overall vibe is casual. The staff is friendly and they are working very hard - all of them! I saw two cashiers and about 4-5 people making the sandwiches. Tip them well! Would definitely be back. read more

After hearing several raving reviews, I had to try Francolini's this summer! I'm so glad that I did. The atmosphere is very authentically New Jersey Deli, with a streamline ordering process and friendly faces throughout! The options are plentiful, and I even saw some good looking vegetarian options as well. We didn't stay to eat, but our sandwiches travelled really well! The bread stayed crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, and the quality of the produce, meats, and cheeses made the sandwich that much more delightful. Definitely worth a try! read more

The best sandwich ever and it's a limited time only menu . Black Forest bacon and creole tomatoes! The big surprise for me was how tasty the shredded lettuce mixed with the pesto and vinaigrette was. I saved one half for later and the bread wasn't soggy at all. There's plenty of street parking but inside seating is limited. I work nearby so I just come in for pick up. read more

Perfect always. These guys are amazing making sandwiches! Super fast to go services as well

The reviews and suggestions were right on point. Was in the area and popped right in. Immediately greeted and loved the open, clean aesthetics. Order took less that 15 mins from start to finish but I understand crowd times can vary. The sandwich was just good. I mean good in every bite and how the flavors meet. Super fresh, flavorful and filling. I would definitely go back again. read more

The stories about the long lines at Francolini's Italian Deli have become legend. And for good reason. The sandwiches they put out are spectacular. Today, we Ubered over and stood in line. The store is neat and clean, the hard-working Staff are the epitome of hustle, and the restroom very clean. There is limited dining space inside, and a larger, very nice patio area outside, with cafe tables. The table had Betty Whites ($15.29) on Focaccia, which is such a large sandwich, my better half and I easily shared one. So Flavorful! The 7-inch sub rolls come fresh from the Ralph Brennan Bakery, using a house-recipe. The Focaccia bread is house made. Earlier this week, we ordered from Francolini's via UberEats, which I have found very fast, reasonable, and reliable. So I highly recommend Francolini's Italian Deli, with the CAVEATS that you check their website for scheduled hours and closures, and their Instagram page for any updates. Order ahead if you can. Parking is tight if you go direct, so take someone who can run in to the store for you while you drive around the block. The extra effort, and a little planning, is worth it, you will not be disappointed. Francolini's Italian Deli, Five-Very-Well-Deserved-Stars. read more

Finally came here for lunch while uptown and I must say the sandwiches deserve the hype. The food here is great, I had the standard Italian and it blew me away. Much better than their competitors around town. They are unfortunately in a location where I am rarely around to eat there but they are a great uptown option for lunch. read more

Okay honestly the sandwiches here are totally worth the hype! Ordered the Gaga and the Italian and I want to go back already. The line was long and I understand why! The customer service was great really and the small counter service makes for a great experience! The atmosphere is truly that of New Orleans style hospitality meets a bodega! You pick a number, order your sandwich at the counter, and pay and wait for such goodness! Love this place and def recommend! read more

It was packed but I get it the sandwiches are sooo good and stuffed! I was traveling here and this spot was recommended I think about these sandwiches all the time. Definitely will go again once im back in Nola read more

Great sandwich shop I suggest going for the special day cause they're usually can't go wrong small inside so I would suggest ordering online that way you don't have to wait. You could just come in and grab your sandwich to go. If you do go in there's only a little bit of counter seating so choose your options wisely but definitely if you go on a Thursday and get the Italian beef special so good. read more

Not sure what exactly was the meat that I had on the up dawg but omg the sandwich was so yummy and filling! Plus I had leftovers. My friends raved about their sandwich's too, there's so many options between warm and cold. They also have the batterina cheesecakes there which make a yummy dessert if you have room! read more

Really delicious hearty sandwiches Jersey style. Loaded with meat and cheese and other goodies. Lots of choices. Only thing I didn't care for is pesto aioli on sandwich. I asked if I could either have mayo or oil and they didn't have. How can you not have those items in a sandwich shop? So I went around all day with garlic breath which I hate. Next time I'll order without, or with plain pesto, but not crazy about that either. That's DEFINITELY not Jersey style! read more

I have never been to New Jersey or New York but if this is what their sandwiches taste like I'm glad we have a place here who doing it right! Everything is FRESH and done with care the real ITHALIAN WAY . To keep lines down and great service Wednesdays are online only and pickup because obviously the Wednesday special is that mf good! read more

Very good sandwiches. Great combination of flavors and ingredients. I got the alfie which was super good on gluten free bread. They ask if it is an allergy or preference so good for that. The shop can get very busy and hard to find a table but super worth it to just sit there and enjoy your pleasant sandwich. read more

This place is everything you want in a Italian sub shop. The smell of break consumes you as you walk in and you grab ticket like an old school deli. I got two sandwiches the gaga and the Raphael. I can't even tell you which one was better because they both slapped my taste buds all over the place. The gaga had so much flavor and the aioli they make is currently making my mouth water. The Raphael taste like you left you grandmas house and you are very Italian lol. The pasta salad is a perfect appetizer and 44 bucks for two sandwiches +chips + pasta salad + a drink ! This place is a steal read more

Have been back several times. Each experience has been better than the next. For the first time, we tried online ordering. It was super smooth. Just order on the website and your sandwich is ready for pickup. I tried the "Lang" sandwich at my last visit. It was transformative. The best sandwich that I've eaten in recent memory. read more

I use Francolini's for office lunches and everyone loves them. All of their sandwiches are outstanding and they have great service!

Easily the best sandwich place in the New Orleans area!!! We constantly get takeout from here for work and as much as I try to cut bread out of my diet the guys at work know I'm still going to want to order something! It's so damn good! If you haven't tried it you really need to. It's a cute little place and I only ever really wave at the staff and say think you while grabbing our bag from the rack but they seem friendly. Maybe one day I'll stay and eat it's usually pretty poppin. Love that you can place your order online and just grab it from the shelf. I would recommend one but we eaten in pretty sure the entire menu at this point and I can honestly say none of us have ever been disappointed!!!! read more

Best sandwich I've had in quite some time! The DiMaggio is possible the best roast beef sandwich I've ever had honestly. The flavor from the Italian salsa Verde, in combo with the Portobello mushrooms, and the Boars Head roast beef, man that was good! I grew up in NY, been in Nola for over a decade now, this is the best sandwich I've had in quite some time. Can't wait to come back to try the rest. read more
