Walked into Rossi & Sons after an event at Marist University earlier in the day. Had a Marist alumni tell me I need to go to Rossi & Sons. I was told to order the #4 or the Vodka Chicken Parm hero. Ended up walking out with over $350 worth of food because I was so blown away. I'm not really sure where to begin: first of all as an Italian, walking into the restaurant already felt like home. I was blown away from the fresh made pasta's, various sauces I could take home, Arancini's (rice balls), and then how could I say no to the desserts. I was in heaven. I had a great conversation with the fabulous ladies behind the counter. I'm pretty sure everyone behind me picking up orders were like "can this guy leave already?". But I just had to continue chatting with everyone. The ladies helped me get everything from around the store that my heart desired. And then I remembered, I was supposed to come in and get a sandwhich. They showed me the screens mounted on the walls which clearly had a custom ordering template built out from the store with all the modification elements to add/remove toppings as needed. Blown away again. I'm a technology salesperson and that part hit a different satisfaction for me as they had this down - and quite honestly the Italian market/pork store is not where I'm expected the highest level of technology lol. Just blown away. Lastly, I told them about my fiancée and how her family owns DelFiore's pork store down on Long Island. At that point they grabbed Fabio, the owner, and we had an amazing conversation as I learned he knew exactly what DelFiore's was and even offered to help give us advice if we ever want to get into the family business. I was supposed to go in and get a rocking $25-$30 sandwhich and I walked out with $350 worth of food because I was being assisted by some of the nicest people I've ever met in the food industry. Just the most genuine caring people. Mind you, I had to schlep all of this back to Brooklyn NY in a Suburu Outback rental. And if you are wondering if everything stayed in the trunk on that drive back, fughetaboutit. I'm popping arancini's like candy on the Taconic home (no small feet with those turns). These people are in the food business because they care about making people's days and giving them the best possible food. Protect these people at all costs. This is a Mecca for quality Italian provisions. I'll be grabbing my fiancée and heading back up so we can continue chatting with everyone and not holding the lines up. 11/10 experience I'm blown away if you couldn't already tell. Just take my money, I can't pay enough for such enjoyable days. That drive home sucked at rush hour, but they all made it worth it. I like to think I gave them all a little enjoyment as well :).

While exploring the Hudson Valley and prepping for a full day of walking and hiking, I was on the hunt for a truly authentic Italian sandwich spot--something local, no frills, just real. This place came recommended by the host at our bed and breakfast, and let me tell you, it completely delivered. Food: 5/5 I went with the #4: chicken cutlet, fresh mozzarella on focaccia , and wow. First of all, it was massive--no way I could finish it solo, so I split it with my husband and we were both blown away. The chicken was crispy and juicy, the mozzarella was so fresh, and the focaccia was fresh and perfectly chewy. It's honestly one of the best chicken cutlet sandwiches I've had--like, up there with the Red Hook Italian delis in Brooklyn. This sandwich had weight, flavor, and heart. Chef's kiss. My husband also ordered a side of meatballs, which admittedly took a bit longer, but he was obsessed with them, so no real complaints. I get it--the hot items take a little more time than the sandwiches. Service: 5/5 This isn't a sit-down spot--they've got a couple of chairs, but it's really more grab-and-go. That said, service was quick, friendly, and efficient. Our sandwiches came out in about 10-15 minutes, and the staff was great about keeping the line moving even when it got a little busy. Overall: This place is a gem. Total cost for both of us? Around $30, and it felt like a luxury lunch without the price tag. Generous portions, high-quality ingredients, and that classic deli charm. If you're anywhere near the Hudson Valley, do yourself a favor and stop here. I'd come back in a heartbeat.

Honestly just stop by if you can lol I haven't been to the original location in Poughkeepsie yet but I loved this place and look forward to going back for some Speck and prosciutto for a charcuterie board soon! Loved the chicken cutlet Panini and the arancini so much. The cacio e pepe was also very enjoyable which makes me want to try a mother pasta dish as well next visit!

Muffaletta
Brandi S.

Pro tip- you can order online in advance. I went on a Monday, and it was pretty slow. I ordered the muffaletta. It's about $20, but can easily be three meals. The sandwich was perfect. The bread was crusty and fresh. Greens were fresh, mozzarella was just soo good. This was my first stop at this location, but it lives up to the Rossi's down by the train station. Next time, I want to try one of their massive, perfect looking croissants. There are also some other baked goods and breads.

Sweet Jebus these sandwiches are incredible. I think I need to try every one. I've been getting the paninis and they weigh at least 5 pounds each.

If I didn't live 2500 miles away, I'd be a regular here There is plenty of outdoor seating. The food looks delicious and tastes even better. The guys behind the counter were super friendly and kind. It was 1 pm on a Saturday when we went and the line was to the door - once we put our orders in it was a 5-10 min wait for the sandwiches, but the wait was so worth it!

Absolutely fantastic sandwiches. The sandwiches are HUGE! All the ingredients are incredibly fresh and delicious. Can't wait to go back!

Import Mix - it was huge!
Jim W.

Saw a lot of hype for this place and had it on the to do list. Smaller than I thought. You walk in and there are a number of touch screens where you place your order. Easy enough to maneuver through. Order the minestrone soup and the Import Mix. The soup was very good but the sandwich was huge, tasty and fully loaded. It's going to take me days to eat. My advice is to order ahead. I was a walk in and it did take about 15 minutes.

I came to Rossi as a backup when my normal go-to spot was closed, having never been before and I will be back. Right off the bat this place has a very cool ambiance that combines both modern and classic old school Italian deli. I ordered a hot sub called the Zoo and this thing was ridiculous. Aside from being absolutely massive, it was on amazing simolina bread that was crispy on the outside and soft in the inside, the chicken was prepared perfectly and there were piles of fresh mozzarella, soppressata balsamic glaze and this spicy stuzzichino spread. The price tag jumps right out at you at $25 for a sub but this is EASILY a 2-3 meal sandwich. I actually laughed when they handed it to me, it was that huge. Service was quality, all subs are made to order on their own breads and this stuzzichino spread was INCREDIBLE, not too spicy but a perfect blend of peppers. Give this place a shot it's worth it!

I have been to this spot now multiple times and every time it is good. The sandwiches are not cheap BUT for the size and quality you get what you pay for so for me the sandwich is worth the price. Everytime my sandwich has been delicious. I love the herb aioli on my sandwiches. Everything is cut fresh during the day (meat and cheese). I see why this spot is on Yelps Top 100 list.

Dario (Small Focaccia)
Robert W.

My family lives in Poughkeepsie, and I don't, but I've been seeing rave reviews online of Rossi's, my friends have been saying incredible things, and my parents love this place. So for the last year or so, I was planning this to be one of my first stops in Poughkeepsie when I visit. And let me just start off by saying, this place definitely lived up to the hype, and is by far one of the best places in Poughkeepsie. We ordered online and drove over to pick up. The shop is located right at the beginning of the new Eastdale complex in Arlington. The food was ready right when I got there and since I ordered online, I didn't even have to wait online. The staff were very attentive, and ready to help right when I arrived. For the food, I ordered a Dario on a "Small" focaccia and substituted in fresh mozzarella for the Gorgonzola. This was a 10/10 sandwich and honestly could be the best sandwich I've ever had, it's definitely top 5. The sandwich was massive and I ordered the smallest size and it kept me fed for 2 full meals. It was stuffed to the brim with a hefty portion of fresh mozzarella, roast beef, pickled onions, roasted tomatoes, arugula, and herb aioli. This was a perfect sandwich, good price, and amazing size. I will definitely be visiting this place every time I'm back here and I cannot recommend enough.

The milanese sandwich
Kathryn K.

That bread! wow. We had achicken milanese sandwich. I think my expectation was that it was going to be a very heavy and sense sandwich but this felt like everything was light and fluffy and not going to kill my stomach. One of the most delicious and clean type of sandwiches I've ever had. In regards to ordering it was really simple we went to a machine but there was somebody there willing to help us if necessary. So once we ordered we received the receipt and went around to the cashier and had to pay. A very simple process however and very long waiting process. We wait at a solid 15-20 minutes for one sandwich. This could be improved but I'm not sure how busy they were in the back. Looking around they had a lot other than to purchase if necessary. They had an entire cheese section got to order. Imported Italian drinks as well as cookies and chips. They also had some Basics sodas and drinks as well. We were able to sit outside on a really nice day with a few of their picnic tables that they have outside. I would highly suggest making a stop if you're in the area.

The import mix

Delicious! Super friendly staff. My sandwich was massive; two meals for me. I visited the new Arlington location. Great spot and all the feels of a classic Italian deli.

Worth it? Mostly, yes! Food: 4/5 We tried a little bit of everything, the Seared chicken breast - Hands down my favorite dish of the night. Perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and flavorful. Followed by the Bacon, egg, and homemade biscuit - A close second! The biscuit was dense and satisfying, and it had a really unique pesto-like sauce on top that made it memorable. Some other shout outs: 1) Orecchiette veggie pasta - Orecchiette is hard to find on menus, so I was delighted to see it here. It was a nice light option among our heavier dishes. 2) Jerk ribs - OK, so this is where my expectations and reality didn't fully align. They were well-cooked, but I'm a saucy girl, and these weren't as slathered or juicy as I'd hoped. That said, the rest of my table really enjoyed them. Also, that hibiscus lemonade? Chef's kiss. Refreshing and flavorful, and exactly the kind of detail that makes a place stand out to me. Service: 4/5 Now, here's where I was really surprised: one person was running the whole show. The head chef was managing the kitchen and the front of house--no servers, no extra help. Just him. For the amount of work that entails, he crushed it. Was it a bit slower than a staffed restaurant? Of course. But honestly, it gave the whole experience a humble, homegrown vibe that I appreciated. Also, it meant a lot to support a Black-owned restaurant and actually connect with the person behind the food. Final Thoughts: While we came for dinner, I could tell from the menu (and the vibe) that this place is really known for brunch. I'm genuinely curious to come back during brunch hours to see how the energy--and menu--might shift. Either way, it's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and looking for a spot with heart, flavor, and soul.

They also were preparing catering offers and there was a pretty constant stream of customers. The space is rather small but we got there at a good time to find seating. They also have a tap water station. There's only gender neutral bathroom, which makes for a little wait at times. Street parking and a small lot a short walk away.
