I stopped for lunch takeout at Tony’s Italian Delicatessen. They have been in the Valley forever, and in fact, they are celebrating their 55th anniversary. It functions as both a sandwich shop and a well-stocked grocery market, offering a slice of East Coast deli culture in Arizona. I met the son, Anthony, and brother, Vince; everyone was so friendly and welcoming. They have a wonderful deli case with imported Italian meats and cheeses, and wonderful-looking homemade cannolis. The chocolate ones looked great. I ordered the Italian special, a meatball sub, and a slice of pizza. I wish I could say the pizza or the meatball sub were good, but I really can’t. The bread was great; the sauce was rich and good, but there were only three half-meatballs in a pretty large sandwich, so I was disappointed. The pizza was undercooked and doughy. I took it home and threw it in the Ninja; it made it a little better. However, the Italian special was very good, which my wife enjoyed, so I guess next time any of their cold-cut sandwiches are the way to go. They are reasonably priced and have a lot of daily specials, and the market is well stocked with imported goods.

I can’t say enough good things about this place. It’s a small little Italian store that sells sandwiches and other foods/grocery items and everything is top quality. I frequently get the sandwiches from here and they are out of this world. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this place.

I love Tony’s deli! I started coming here in 2001 when I first moved to Phoenix. I now live about 30 minutes away but make the trip every few months to grab a sandwich, lunch meat, some cannoli, and the hard to find Italian items. I always try to bring someone new to experience it here, and I have to hear anyone disappointed. The bread is made fresh daily, the prices for sandwiches is unbeatable, and the unique charm is what makes this a 10/10.

The deli is a small store filled with pasta noodles, cannoli shells,and several other things you may want to make an authentic Italian feast. I ordered the Special Italian sandwich w/pasta salad. I have never had an Italian sandwich as good as the one I had at Tony’s. The meat was juicy, the bread was fluffy, and my stomach was Happy. In addition, the pasta salad was fantastic. No crazy ingredients, just noodles, carrots, broccoli, and some olive oil.Simple,and perfect. Lastly Tony’s is reasonably priced. You will not regret coming to Tony’s deli.

I was craving some italian food with zesty sauce for lunch. I saw this place and decided to stop by. And get a sandwich. I ordered a whole Italian sandwich. They were very pleasant to talk to the store.Itself is a little crowded, but that’s what makes it so close to home. The sandwich was amazing? You’ve reminded me of my old neighborhood and every time i’m in the area.I will be going back

Real Italian food. Some of the best I’ve ever had. Great sauces, meats and pasta. Bread is super fresh. Great deserts and really friendly staff. It’s worth the drive, definitely recommend.

This place is hands-down amazing. They knew it was my first time and guided me on ordering, letting me explore the shop. I got the meatball sub and another of their house-made Italian subs. To say the least, they were incredible, and the fresh cannoli were the best I have ever had! I’m bringing the family back!

I wanted to like this place and did like the store part. The store is an old school Italian market with a lot of authentic Italian groceries, pastas, sauces, and specialty products. The deli counter is a little light on the deli meats and poultry, but has enough to get by. The store is very small and crowded but has a lot of good Italian products that are hard to find elsewhere. The staff was super nice and welcoming. The problem is the food was not good. I waited awhile in a crowded store where there was not a lot of room to maneuver and an obnoxious buzzer going off every time the door was opened. This is not a place for those who don’t like tight spaces or who suffer panic attacks. The wait and small space are normally part of the charm of an authentic Italian deli. The food failed. The large Italian sausage sandwich was an adequate portion. The sausage and the sauce on it were tasty enough. Neither were anything special. The bread was undercooked, lacked flavor, and soggy and does not compare to the bread served at other Italian delis. The pizza was also below average, had no pizzazz, and there was way too much crust. I might be back for groceries but not food.

This is my first time here as TID was recommended to me. Walking in you can tell it’s authentic, and offers everything you might be shopping for. I was reminded of a deli back in Chicago — Bari’s on Grand Avenue. I ordered their Italian special (Large $9.85), macaroni salad ($2.00), and a bottle of Dr Pepper. My friend had the Hero ($7.55). The total + debit card fee $1.00 came to $25.45. I’ll have to double check and see that I wasn’t overcharged. The sandwich is very good; having generous slices of salami, and capocollo. They added lettuce and tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese. It’s a big sandwich. They don’t cut it in half… so ask next time to see if they will. The macaroni salad is bland. No flavor as the dressing tasted of mayonnaise, and there wasn’t much of anything as celery, peppers, onions, etc. Just the noodles and taste of mayonnaise. The deli is cramped inside; no room for tables. Seating is available outside, and we had a nice day to sit and have lunch. The biggest issue here is no bathroom. You have to ask and use another business’s bathroom, and thankfully there was one. The coffee shop was closed, and the barbershop said no. If you come here, it’s best that you get your order ‘To Go.’ That is disappointing to see. Only other concern is parking. It can be limited depending on the time of day. The deli is in a strip mall that’s located by a busy intersection. If ever I’m in the area again I may stop in to grab a deli sandwich to go. If that salad was a touch better I would have scored TID higher. P.S. Of the cannolis in the case, the plain is alright. Its casing was a bit soft or soggy. The chocolate is much better.

If youre looking for a truly authentic restaurant, you have come to the right place. Tony’s is celebrating their 55 anniversary this year! Quite the achievment and shows how beloved it is in the community. The atmosphere is so cute. Nonpublic restroom FYI. A few small patio tables for dining outside, otherwise take it to go! Now to the review…
We got two sandwiches. Two sides. and 3 cannolis.
Sandwiches: Bread is homemade and 10/10. Meat is thinly shaved and great meat. Cheese and lettuce included. Extras are mustard, mayo, tomato, oil and vinigar. overall it was a 9/10. The bread won big points for me. The sauces were minimal and not overpowering too, more points.
We orderes the Full Hot Turkey and Full Hot Pastrami sandwiches. less than 9 for a full sub can’t be beaten.
Large sides of macceroni salad for around $4! The macceroni salad was good, but thin with a mild flavor. If you like think chuncky macceroni salad then its not for you. That being said, I prefer the thinner flavor. 8/10 for me.
And the winner is:Chocolate Cannoli. The cannolis are hand made fresh, shells and all. They are think and creamy and sweet. The vanilla was an 8/10 BUT the chocolate is a solid 10/10. Best Cannoli I have ever eaten. I’ll be back to Tony’s when I’m in the area.
