I must have ordered the most boring sandwich on the menu--turkey rubini! It was toasted but absolutely no favor. So disappointing.... Super friendly staff though. read more

Cute neighborhood business. Seemed pretty busy, the wait to order and receive the food was longer than expected. Nice Sauv Blanc while we waited, sandwich well prepared. read more

Excellent deli sandwiches with very fresh ingredients. A bit pricey and a little cramped for eating in, but worth a try.

Customer service - 5 out of 5 Wait time - 5 out of 5 Cleanliness - 4.5 out of 5 Atmosphere - 5 out of 5 Food quality - 4.0 out of 5 I've never been to Savona so decided to try it out today. We arrived on a Saturday around 3:30pm. On Saturdays they close at 4pm, there were a few customers eating inside and outside. Also customers were coming in to pick on orders. I was greeted immediately with a smile upon entering. Staff was very friendly and even gave me recommendations upon request. I was told that The Toscana was popular so I went with that. I waited for no more than 5 minutes before my name was called out for my panini, which I was taking to go. Interior and exterior was clean. A table here and there needed to be wiped down after customers left, but overall everything appeared to be well maintained. I did enjoy the atmosphere. Music played lightly in the background. I did like the decor and the display of the wine bottles available for purchase. The Toscana had a really good flavor. Slightly dryer than my preference, but I enjoyed the fresh ingredients and every bite was consistent. The vinaigrette dressing was tasty. Note, the panini does not come with chips. With a score of 22.5 stars out of 25, I give this restaurant an A- rating. When I return, I would like to try the Italian Wrap read more

Love Savona! Always fresh and delicious and love Maria's smiling face. Always a wonderful selection of food and wine. And if you choose to dine in it's such a friendly and wonderful atmosphere. read more

Closest thing to NYC. Small stop on Main Street and it's worth the wait. Don't go if you're thinking this is a fast pace grab and go operation. They take their time and it's worth it. Favorite is the Toscana. read more

Savona - Toscana Sub - Delis Near Me - Bel Air, Maryland

A smaller and charming Italian deli/restaurant with a wine shop and small grocery section with mostly Italian fare. You have in and outdoor seating & I saw a lunch/daily special sign. I decided to go with the Liguria. A good mix of Prosciutto, Capi, provolone and veggies. The Pesto Mayo balanced it out nicely. Service was friendly and courteous. Will be back to try some of the other sandwiches, salads & the Charcuterie board. Great to have this spot in downtown Bel Air. read more

Our friends had been telling us how good the sandwiches were at Savona, so we decided to meet there for lunch. This is a true Italian delicatessen selling everything Italian, including wine. We enjoyed "The Lomdardia Panini," which was rare roast beef, asiago cheese, red onion, and tomato with horseradish mayonnaise - "The Cran-Turkey Panini," which was oven roasted turkey breast, and lettuce with cranberry sauce. - The Smoked Turkey Special Panini, which was smoked turkey, fontina cheese, lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise - all served warm. Our friend had the "Antipasto Salad," which was strange as there was no real greens in it - just salami and cheeses, olives, artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers, marinated mushrooms and pepperoncini. The salami was quite spicy! Because this is a delicatessen, seating is very limited. Some high-top tables, some countertop seating, and about four 2 top tables. Unfortunately, the chairs were super uncomfortable. Another odd thing is that while they have cups for the drinks, they do not have ice. They sell sodas, etc. in cans and bottles. At least, they were reasonably cold. We all enjoyed our lunches. read more

Carry out service is very good. The freshly baked bread is perfectly crunchy with soft inside. The pastries are excellent. Good place for a quick lunch or dessert. read more

Thought long and hard about writing a review....I wanted to like this deli more, but I can't. It's in a great location on Main Street in Bel Air, but to me, it's just an overpriced Italian deli with mediocre help. I ordered my go-to deli order: turkey, pepperoni, lettuce, onions, mayo and hots (I know it may sound strange). The bread was nothing special, actually a little hard; and nothing jumped out to me saying "I'm so glad I just paid $20 for this sandwich". You live, and you learn! First and last time for me. read more

Amazing service and food, always friendly and fast, but be prepared to wait if there is a wine tasting.

I absolutely love Savona, what an amazing vibe when you walk in. Very high quality meats and products. Grab a cheese board and drink a few bottles of wine. What lovely owners , they pick wonderful college students to work during their breaks. What a wonderful experience. Keep up the great work read more

We grabbed take out from here and it was amazing! The service was fast, employees were friendly, business was clean, and the food tasted amazing! Portions were large and they did not skim on veggies or meat. My wrap came with a side of chips as well! read more

Very quality cheeses, deli meats and olives. The chicken salad is excellent. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Very nice little place to get sandwiches, wine and some snacks! Friendly staff, they are always so helpful and the sandwiches are great!

Easily my favorite local spot for lunch! Great food, great service! My only wish is that they were open until 6 pm every day, as it is a great place to grab sandwiches for dinner, too! read more

Always a pleasure dining at Savona's. The food is awesome and the atmosphere is very New York style deli. Lots of choices and great wines. The real treasures are the owners, Maria and Blane. Wonderful people. Pat and Doug Bel Air, MD read more

I think this a great place to pickup some Italian grocery items, wines and lunch meats. As a deli, it's a great place with a nice selection of meats and cheeses by the pound. As a sandwich and salad shop, I am much less impressed.... I want to like this place more because it is a friendly place with a good idea. I think the sandwiches especially leave a lot to be desired. The ingredients used are quality, but there is something missing in the assembly process and I've never truly enjoyed them. When I order a Panini, I don't expect an oversized dried out bread roll that is barely heated with cold lunch meat inside..... for $7.99, I expect a little better. Yes, I know 'Panini' in Italian means any meat between bread... blah blah blah.... Just label these as cold cut subs, and all will be clear..... When I went home and dis-assembled my sub, then pressed and regrilled it properly, it was a good panini.... I'll try again another time..... read more

The panini's are beyond delicious. We ate there and split the Toscana (regular menu) and the Italian Cuban (special of the day) and they were both delicious. Everything was so fresh and tasty. The bread was soft on the inside but perfectly crusty and toasted on the outside. And everyone working there was friendly and kind from the time we walked in until the time we walked out of the door. They also have free wine tastings every Saturday, I didn't personally partake but did see lots of other customers participating and everyone looked pleased. Overall I would highly recommend Savona! read more

Amazing sandwiches! They are well made with fresh ingredients that taste right from a garden. They are some of the best sandwiches I've ever had and I've been to Italy. I look forward to getting my lunch today from them. read more

The best service, freshest products, and cutest little family atmosphere. I moved out of town for college 5 years ago and have been away from home since then. Every time I come back to Bel-Air I have to stop in and get a Liguria. My favorite! I've tried to recreate it myself with no luck, not the same without the atmosphere and love! read more

Had the cheese platter! Amazing, large portions of bread!!! The fact that it's in Bel Air is amazing! Usually all you see is beer, which isn't a bad thing, some or us prefer wine. Good food and decently priced, $3 corking fee for ur in house wines ...you can't beat that. I will say you wont see the "usual" wines which is a good thing! Sometimes we need to push our boundaries. Came in on a Saturday, which means free wine tasting!! This is a perfect date day! Bring your special one! read more

Best small town authentic Italian store around. I personally love their chicken salad.

My husband and I really enjoyed eating lunch at Savona. It's such a hidden gem. We are so surprised they haven't expanded into a bigger space yet. We enjoyed an Italian Panini and Italian Salad. Both came with generous amounts of meat. I also love that you can see your food being made fresh. It's worth the small wait! The only thing I wish: the plates and silverware weren't single-use for the "for here" food. Nonetheless, we'll definitely make it a priority to go to Savona more often!! read more

Another wonderful Saturday at Savonas. The cheese board is always a great choice. We love the Burrata platter and her meatballs are amazing. Her wine selection is unparalleled. The staff is always so friendly and accommodating. So glad they were able to stay open during COVID!! read more

This place is our Favorite Sandwich place! Their Sandwiches are the best!! We took my mom who lives overseas there because she loves sandwiches. She enjoyed her sandwich and on the top of that the owner welcomed her. My mom will never forget her experience there and we will not stop ordering from Savona. Thank you for making delicious sandwiches so we can have a party in our mouths with every bite! read more

The food was VERY good, but I'm not sure it was $16.49 for a cold deli sandwich good. I'll probably only order here again if its my birthday. It really was a great sandwich. read more

Not good sandwiches at all and over priced ! Got the turkey club , barely any turkey in it , mostly full of mayo ! Super tough and dry bread ! I mostly tasted bread and mayo in this sandwich. read more

3.5/5 I've only been here once, but I just thought the food was okay. I ordered the Toscana panini, which is essentially an Italian sub. I was expecting it to be toasted, but it was just an Italian cold cut sandwich. It tasted fine, but I think it was a bit overpriced. If I were to return, I would order something else, like the Roma or Linguria after looking at other people's reviews. read more

Hands down the best sandwiches in Bel Air. The "Raven" is their version of an Italian sub and my mouth is watering just typing this. Not the cheapest, but like anything, you get what you pay for! A+ all the way! read more

Top sandwich shop. Will NOT disappoint, ever. Added delivery service makes this place a must go-to for an epic foodie experience.

Best fresh baked Italian bread in Harford county! Great cannolis and super friendly owner. Fresh Parmesan cheese well worth to price.!

I went in on a Saturday for lunch. It was very busy, but everyone behind the counter was working hard and moving quickly to get orders out as quickly as possible. There wasn't any indoor seating due to the small space and Covid restrictions, but there were a few patio tables available outside. My husband and I each order a different panini and both really enjoyed them. I will definitely be goin back to try all their different menu items! We also purchased some Italian goodies from their small speciality shop section which we really enjoyed! read more

I used to love getting the tuna salad from here about 5 years ago but the quality has really decreased. The tuna is drenched in mayo. Not sure if the recipe changed but it definitely doesn't taste as good as it used to. read more

have a good rest beef sandwich one day and the cheese really make the sandwich stand out. the bagget was big and the fixings really make the big picture. i drank a green tea to wash it all down and i really am glad i did it sticks out to me to this day. i have thought about it a lot. read more

I am going to keep this simple. AMAZING! Yes, it is my first check-in, which means it is my first time, and my first experience. But you know what they say about first impressions. I found this little gem through YELP (but of course) and what a treasure. I am so glad that I finally decided to go beyond the confines of the drab little city called Aberdeen, to find other hopeful eateries. My first sandwich, the Liguria, hit the spot! You know the spot **wink**. The first bite took me straight to Italy. The flavor, the pesto mayonnaise, prosciutto, and whatever other Italian meat they added...WHOA! It is really good. Up above, speakers spewing Italian music/songs. In front of you, a clear show case display of meats, salads, and cheeses. All around you, delicious smells of hand made sandwiches, desserts, and other goodies. A definite place to come back to. Well worth the 24 minute drive from Aberdeen. And a time worthy break from my everyday. read more

Much respect for the folks who run the place. Has a fun selection of Italian imported canned and packaged goods - oils, polenta, pastas etc. The place is essentially a sandwich shop and a fairly average one at that. In reading reviews I expected something truly special. It's missed the mark. Had a meatball sandwich and the artichoke and turkey panini. I expected flavors to be off the hook and the crisp on the bread to be heavenly...well not so much. I have eaten in a lot of Delis and sandwich shops from coast to coast. My feedback to these kind folks is to up your game, amp up the flavors (more spice, more creative thought etc) and shoot to have sandwiches one can truly not get anywhere else that are memorable. The ones I had were forgetable. A lot of potential but did not meet expectations. read more

This place has hands down the best sandwiches. Every time I have gone here I continue to get blown away. The staff is very friendly and helpful with the decision which sandwich to pick. If you need somewhere to grab a bite to eat- don't pass up Savona read more

My husband and I ordered some lunch from the yelp app. I got the Lombardia and my husband got the cheesy BLT. When my husband got to the store to pick up the order it was packed. We still got the food relatively quick. The food was delicious. Lots of delicious crunchy, flakey bread. Lots of sauce, meats, and cheese. Super delicious and the portions were huge. The best sandwich I've had in a long time! read more

Waited a hour for order (they had plenty of staff working and the item I wanted was available). I'm a pretty patient person consideriding I also work in customer service and understabd mistakes can happen. But after one hour, the item I ordered was given to two other customers who ordered after me and I had to run to Wegmans to purchase to same product in under 3 mins. read more
