    Chicken parm
    Mike S.

    My first time in here and I wasn't expecting much, but WOW. Things change! It's a small old school Italian deli. You order at the counter and they bring it out to your table. I went with the chicken parm sandwich. It was amazing. Perfectly fried hand battered chicken breast covered in a phenomenal marinara sauce with melted fresh mozzarella on a toasted roll like they're made back east. Each bite just made you want more! It was the perfect lunch. I cant wait to come bacj

    Muffuletta and eggplant/pepper/provolone/tomato sandwiches
    Crystal S.

    Nice lunch spot. We had the muffuletta and eggplant/peppers sandwiches. Both had generous fillings and fresh bread. The eggplant sandwich kept falling apart (a little hard to eat without knife & fork), and was a bit oily. Took home a meat lasagna, which was good (not the best take-home we've had) and on the pricey side for a cold deli case lasagna. A small selection of Italian sundries also for sale. Plenty of indoor seating and friendly service.

    Look at that beautiful mozzarella

    Hands down to the best sandwich I've had in forever my massage therapist (who is around the corner of Paolo's deli) recommended this place and she wasn't wrong when she said this place was top notch. I order the prosciutto mozzarella arugula sandwich, and it was simple but delicious,perfect seasoning and the prosciutto was fresh a so fresh that it got sliced infront of me, they even gave me a complimentary slice. The place is roomy with plenty of seating. the staff was friendly and attentive. I think this is one of those sandwiches that you just wake up in the middle of the night and you're like man. I wish I had one of those right now. definitely will be back.

    My chicken and spinach cannelloni was amazing. Soo much flavor. The service was great too. I ordered to go. The staff is very friendly. Cute little cafe with amazing food. It smelled so good inside. I also bought some pasta to cook later. I will definitely be back to dine in and add some dessert for the perfect finish.

    Another awesome lunch at Paolo's! Every time you go in, you are happily greeted by either the owner/Chef (?) or the nice lady behind the cash register. My husband and I always split the mista salad and a sandwich. Today we split the turkey sandwich with fontina and sun-dried tomatoes. Both were off the charts! The mista salad is light and refreshing. I'm not sure what they put in the dressing, but it is amazing! The combination of cool pasta, beans, eggplant, olives and lettuce is delicious. The turkey, fontina, and sun-dried tomato sandwich is also delicious. The sandwich roll is light and very fresh. Plus, I really appreciate how they split the order into individual servings. You leave feeling content but not stuffed. Which to me, means I've had the perfect lunch. We will definitely go back! Again and again....

    I loved this sandwich shop and deli. This is one of the best chicken parm sandwiches and one of the best Italian meatball subs that I have ever had. I couldn't decide which sandwich to get to I got both. Great decision! The service was amazing. It felt like we were eating at someone's home and there was so much love in the food. The ambiance is that of a place in the Italian district of a town. We also got some more food to take home. We will definitely be back !

    We aren't usually on this side of town but my husband has really been wanting to try this place, so we finally made a point to come here recently! My husband lived in Italy for a year and was stoked to find an Italian deli here in Reno. He got the Italian Stallion with Porchetta, Salami, and Mortadella. I got the Spicy Soppressata and Ham sandwich. Our friends who came with us got the Chicken Caesar and Chicken Parm sandwiches. All four of us loved our food! The meats are high quality, the bread is delicious, and the sandwiches were packed full of ingredients. The freshness of the ingredients really stood out to us--that made simple sandwiches turn out tasting even better than you'd expect. They have chips, salads, and desserts you can purchase as well. The guy working was super helpful and kind. I watched an elderly man come in to pick up a box of food, and the staff member carried it out to the car for him to help load everything up. The staff member addressed the elderly man and his wife by name, so I'm sure they are regulars. That type of service says a lot about a business and the people who work there! This deli is a hidden gem, my husband said it tastes really similar to delis you'd find in Italy. We will keep this place in mind for future lunches!

    My family has been before and I've been dying to try it. Today was the day. First of all the staff is absolutely amazing. They were welcoming when we walked in and so accommodating. I got a meatball sub for my husband and I wanted one too but didn't want to have it soggy by the time I got home so they were so nice to deconstruct it for me. My daughter loves prosciutto and without asking, they have us both some to try. It was so delicious. They also let my daughter create a sandwich that wasn't on the menu. We waited in the cute dining room for it to be ready. When we got home the sandwiches were perfect.

    This is a great Italian deli. Everything was fresh. Service was spectacular. It's a hidden little gem and to be honest I don't think there's a bad item on the whole menu. 10/10 I'll definitely be back to try all the sandwiches

The kid behind the counter was working solo and he was super friendly and helpful. He did inform me that he was out of dutch crunch, lettuce and peppers. I was bummed because that was one of the reasons I wanted to try this sandwich spot. Our sandwiches were good, just not worth the $29 I paid for them. For these two and the lack of toppings and meat were disappointing. It was still a good sandwich just not what we were expecting. I paid $13.99 for the 775 and $11.99 for Cassius Clay and both are on the website for a $1 less. If you're going to hike your prices; have produce. I wouldn't pay for that ever again. I'm bummed I had higher hopes for this spot. (They no longer offer the items redacted by the pink sticky.)

Thinking they may have forgotten our order or it was somehow misplaced, I asked how much longer it would be. Was told there was still a wait, but no specific time was given. We waited another ten minutes and still nothing. Went back up to the counter and asked again. Was met with major attitude and was told they're very busy. I looked around... Including us, there was one guy waiting at the counter and one girl who already had her sandwich. And there were zero Door Dashers the entire time we were there. There were NO other ppl that came in the entire time we were there. Ummmm.... It was crickets the entire time. Then all five employees came to the front as we were asking for our money back and we were met with some kind of weird, out-of-bounds rude behavior, saying things like, "Well if you think you can do better why don't you come back and run the grill?" To which I said, "Sure! No problem. I private chef on the side and can probably teach ya a thing or two. You cannot just fire on one sandwich every ten to fifteen minutes." After no cheesesteak and quite a bit of arguing, we finally got our money back. Lastly, it's worth noting, the place was super dirty. Used napkins on the floor, tables not wiped down. Counters not cleaned. Ketchup packets left on tables. Garbage clearly hadn't been taken out in a long time. So, let's just say, the Health Dept has been notified; the conditions are atrocious. Literally the worst place I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot! It's a shame... all of the other Capriotti's locations I've been to have been clean, ultra quick, and the quality of their products have been awesome. This one? Run. Run away fast and far! Do NOT eat there!
