If you go on insta - you will see why this spot is so well reviewed. First off, unrelated to the food is that this place is spotless! It defies logic. I arrived at 2pm on a weekday and the guy was doing a deep clean while I ate my sandwich. Love this. I got The Emma - no clue how they arrived at this name. It's one of their more spicy steak sandwiches and includes kimchi and Broccoli rabe - absolutely one of the most memorable sandwiches I've consumed. While I was there - a food blogger came in and shot a video. This place is no secret. My only "issue" is that the food is expensive. I TOTALLY get they are using high end ingredients - organics - locally sourced - etc. those items are not cheap. But my sandwich was normal sized - no pickle or any add on item - and I ate in but was not offered a plate or a fork. It's a deli. But for $20+, I can't eat here every day or even multiple times a week. Like NYC, it ain't for everyone and it ain't cheap. But I'll be back! read more

Quality sandwhich spot. Very thick and very filling as they give large portion sizes. Easy to pickup and quick service. Small location with a couple of tables so very much to go spot. But strongly recommend large portions and good flavor read more

Wow THIS is a sandwich shop! Yes they're a little pricey but the sandwiches are massive, can easily serve 2 people each and are loaded with meat. I was so excited to try the Cuban after seeing them on Instagram and it did not disappoint. The pork was so tender and juicy, the cheese was perfectly melty and the bread was soft but held up well! I can't wait to come back and try their steak sandwiches! read more

I had the "Nice To Greek You" salad with grilled chicken and it was honestly such a great choice. The grilled chicken was seasoned really well and added so much flavor to the salad. Everything tasted fresh, and the vinaigrette paired perfectly without being too heavy. The portion was super filling, which I always appreciate when it comes to salads. The service was also very sweet, welcoming, and quick, which made the whole experience even better. It's a great spot if you're looking for something fresh, satisfying, and easy--especially on a nice sunny day when you can sit back and enjoy the view. Definitely a place I'd come back to for salads, wraps, or sandwiches read more

Another overhyped place. Ordered two of their popular sandwiches and they were both dry as a board and lacked substance. Very disappointing! So many other great sandwich places this is def not one of them. read more

Best sandwich shop in Manhattan hands down! Fresh bread and generously stuffed sandwiches that never disappoint. I always order takeout, and the delivery service is consistently great. My favorite is the Frank Sinatra. I'm a sucker for a great Italian sammie, and this one really hits. Definitely a repeat customer for a reason. read more

Very Good but not great! It's pricy, $30 dollars for a sandwich but they are not cheap with meat let me tell you - - - LOADED with steak. The downfall is the artisan bread which is too doughy, almost like a burger bun and trust me, it makes a huge difference in this type of Sandwiches. If they would make with Portuguese rolls this sandwich would be something out of this world. Anyway, I enjoyed myself but if you are in a rush come earlier because I had to wait 25 min for my sandwich. The staff is really friendly and helpful. read more

Flying solo in NYC and I've been walking all day. 25,000 steps and about 10 miles later, I was hungry, and saw this sandwich shop on instagram so why not check it out. To be honest. I was going to say to hell with gluten intolerance, I wanted to try one of their amazing breads of which they have a lot of options to go with one of their amazing sandwiches, again, a ton of options. In the end though, I decided to go with the gluten free wrap and the godmother. Yes yes, the chicken cutlet was not gluten free but better a bit of breading than a hunk of bread. Anyway, this cutlet with roasted red peppers, arugula, mozzarella and balsamic was fantastic. One of the best sandwiches I've had in a while. The wrap wasn't anything special-just a standard gluten free wrap-but in the plus side, the tastelessness of a gluten free wrap made sure I enjoyed the flavors of everything in the wrap. Come here. You won't regret it. read more

If you're in the area and feeling a sandwich this could be a good option. The place is nice and the service is friendly. It's a fairly large sandwich and you can eat half later. The chicken noodle soup was the soup of the day and it was good! I shoulda got a bigger bowl. I'll order again soon! read more

I came here because of a Social Media video on Instagram and Youtube, I stayed because of the food!!! Charrua Bravo Jack's Gusto The chicken sandwich is amazing the flavor and tenderness of a fried chicken breast is bar none one of the best I have ever had. From the pillowy Foccaccia bread to the super fresh avocado slices every bite was an amazing burst of flavor and mouth feel. I've not had a better tasting chicken sandwich! As much as I loved Jack's Gusto sandwich, the Charrua Bravo (Steak) takes the sandwich wars to a whole other level!!!! I ordered the steak sandwich as medium rare but by the time I took it out it was well done. ***NORMALLY*** I would be upset because a well done steak is to dry, tough and chewy to bite into, *BUT* surprise this is NOT the case with the Charrua Bravo!!! It was incredibly moist and tender and still juicy. So much for mouth feel. Let's talk about the most important variable TASTE. The flavor of the incredibly fresh Uragruanian beef is every bit as good as USDA Prime, the unami from and the rich marbling of the steak rivals any NYC Premium Steak house! I truly believe that my next order of this sandwich will be RARE and it will be even more flavorful! And now finally the icing on the cake, the STAFF! None of this magic could happen without a wonderful staff and owner. Fast friendly neighborhood service that feels like you walked into a next door neighbor's house rather than an A+++ rated sandwich/NYC Deli shop. Hats off to the owner Andres, his lovely wife Orlanda and the wonderfully sweet sales clerk Maria that elevated a fantastic lunchtime into an AMAZING experience. Run and dont walk to Montagu's Gusto because if you dawdle you might just miss out! :) Bon Appetit' :D read more

So many choices! They have so many options! I went for the Habana Cuba, but the ciabatta bread wasn't really pressed; it was chewy instead of crunchy, which defeated the purpose. Good selection of ingredients, though. They don't come cheap, but the portions are sizable. read more

One of my Meal Pal staples specially on Tuesdays. I love their pancho villa sandwich. It's spicy and full of flavor. I find that their portion is large and I split the sandwich for two occasions. I love how quickly the food is made and that it's made in front of you. The staff is friendly and the seating area is small but cute. read more

I have ordered catering from here multiple times for corporate lunches and I cannot express how easy they make the process. They've shared their recommendations with me, they also deliver, and are very communicative throughout the whole process. The food is also delicious! Thank you Montagus Gusto team! Appreciate you all! read more

This place has cozy cafe vibes, and the staff is always ready to help when I step in. The first time I visited, I looked at the menu and immediately wanted to try several different items. Of course, I came back for more! I ordered the Charrua Bravo Sandwich this time, and they once again did not skimp out on the meat. The meat was a little too chewy for my liking, but the flavors together all combined really well. read more

Huge sandwiches! Perfect for sharing (or not). I got a special that was offered last month but they were able to make it again for me but slightly modified. It was a chicken cutlet sandwich which they have a few other ones to choose from. Found the staff to be friendly. read more

While staying in NYC, I've had enough pizza slices so I ventured o to Yelp go find something else. The reviews and photos looked great. I ordered the Frank Sinatra grinder/hoagie/whatever (!) and man, it did not disappoint. The sandwich was so good and so big!! The bread was great and the meats and veggie totally fresh! Service was fast. I received the sandwich in no time. I'm not sure what the place looks like, but if it's as good as the food, it must be nice! read more

Easy 5 starts. I'm a regular and it's one of the cities best delis. Sandwitches are big and worth every penny

I wanted to try the focaccia king but it's listed under grilled chicken and I wanted fried chicken, so I just ordered the godmother instead. I'm glad I made the switch as I ended up really liking it. The sandwich is a pretty big portion, I saved half for dinner. It was juicy and actually dripping in sauce, which shows the sandwich was not dry at all. I went during lunch hour on a weekday and it was pretty crowded inside, but it wasn't difficult to get a seat. By the time I finished waiting for my food, some tables had cleared up. Also, the lady at the counter was very nice. She offered me the menu when she saw I was reading the menu on the wall. I'll definitely come back to get the godmother again and maybe even try the focaccia king since a lot of reviews show it with fried chicken. read more

Montagu's Gusto - The Godmother - Sandwiches Near Me - New York, New York

Today, I got takeout for lunch from Montagu's Gusto. Inside, there are very few indoor seats and tables. It's very clean inside and decorated simply. Ambiance rate 7/10. The staff was nice, and the service was quick since my order was ready by the time of pickup. I ordered the M1 Venezia Moon Sandwich. The Italian herbs seasoning they used was delicious and flavorful. The bread was also nice and soft which I liked. The size of the sandwich was very big and kept me full. However, a huge downside is the Chicken Milanese was not crispy at all, like advertised on their menu. Instead, it was grilled and very soft. It lacked mozzarella cheese and balsamic glaze, so I wish they added more of that. Lastly, it was a bit pricey for a sandwich ($17), and considering it wasn't exactly how they described it, I don't think it was worth the price. Rate 7/10. Overall, I would definitely try other sandwich delis in NYC. read more

Had the charrua bravo (skirt steak) and it was fantastic. The steak was tender and flavorful, the chimichurri was done right, the portion of steak was generous and the bread was high quality. Service was very friendly and fast. The place is expensive but the quality of the food is excellent. I will be back! read more

Great service late at night, was definitely worth the walk from the subway. Food was hot, and tasted good, I liked the Philly Cheesesteak. The store was cozy, and had plenty of chairs despite the small space. read more

The sandwiches are great...if you get the right one. We love the Viva La Gusto with chicken, cheese, bacon, and spicy sauce. However, on 2 separate occasions we have been given a completely different sandwich from what we ordered. Both sandwiches had our name and order description on it but contained something completely different inside. I would suggest placing orders in person and verifying them before leaving the building. read more

My goal is to hit all of the best sandwich shops in nyc. Next on my list was Montagu's Gusto which sells both hot and cold Italian specialities (they also sell breakfast items, rice bowls, soups, salads and other foods). The first thing that stuck out to me from their menu was their wide variety of breads. For any of the sandwiches you order, you can choose to substitute for another type of bread. Among the bread options are Balthazar ciabatta , filocino hero, strecci doppio hero and more. I knew right away that u wanted to order a chicken cutlet sandwich. I went with the God Mother which is chicken cutlet with mozzarella cheese balsamic glaze arugula and red peppers. I asked for mine lightly toasted. Weirdly mine didn't arrive with either arugula or peppers, but I didn't mind frankly. The sandwich was very big. You certainly get your moneys worth. They give you a generous amount of chicken and mozzarella. The chicken was very well seasoned. Overall, it was quite good. In terms of how it stacks up to the other sandwich places on my nyc list, I'm still deliberating. I would certainly order again though. read more

Just absolutely phenomenal sandwich joint. Will say it is WILDLY overpriced, but you are definitely getting some good quality ingredients. They tend to have monthly specials which are always interesting! The service is always quick and easy, but it's small so there aren't many spots to eat inside read more

The food was good, but didn't really seem worth the $15+ price tag per sandwich. The ambiance was nice, but the wait was kind of crazy. We showed up as the only people in there, placed our order and then a few groups came after us. Somehow the groups after us started getting their food first, and our order took over 15 minutes for 2 sandwiches. The sandwich I got was a pretty good size though read more

this is one of my favorite sandwich spots in the city as a serve up, huge delicious sandwiches and even salads and other bowls. Every time I've ordered a sandwich from here, I usually save the other half to eat the next day and when reheated sometimes tastes even better! I love getting the godmother while my boyfriend likes experimenting with different types of sandwiches all which have been winners. I've even gotten some salads from here before and they are absolutely huge and worth the price as I always save half of it to eat for dinner or lunch the next day. There is very limited seating inside, but during the warmer weather, they put chairs and tables outside so you can enjoy your sandwich there. Everything is fresh and the staff is very friendly there - whenever I place an order for pick up I've never had to wait more than 15 minutes. read more

Chicken a bit chewy - steak was stored cold and heated on the grill- Tried their two most popular.sandwiches - a chicken avocado w chipotle dressing and arugula- A skirt steak and cheese baguette- tough and chewy. Next visit would go for a good looking salad I saw the Avacadito. That was clearly their winner. read more

Pass on Montagu's Gusto especially for delivery. We ordered two sandwiches "all you need is love" which comes with pastrami, Swiss, and mustard" and a "freshly squeezed" orange juice and "hand made" bagel. We called to request tomatoes, lettuce, and extra pickles for our sandwiches. We didn't get any pickles or lettuce and tomato and we couldn't find the cheese or mustard. It was just a few pieces of pastrami on bread for an order total of $46.85. I called them about the pickles and they said that's extra and I said we could have paid for it and why didn't they tell me and they said with delivery, they get notes all the time from customers and ignore them. Whaaaat? The orange juice tasted sour and grocery store juice would have been better. Their plain bagel they sent, as pictured was rock hard and dry. How is this place still in business? read more

I have eaten at a lot of delis in my time, but this place is elevated beyond belief! A true hidden gem in the heart of Manhattan. This place is a go to for any, and all of your sandwich needs! I tried the Buffon, which had fresh, melted cheese and soft bread just the way I like Yum! And then I took the uncle Vinnie home, it had the most amazing and fresh ingredients from the prosciutto to the bread. I cannot express enough. I ate one and a half of each in the car. I could not wait until I got home, if you're in the area definitely stop by. And they have a variety of other healthy options for lunch, especially salads, health, shots, and other products. read more
