    Alidoro's spectacular sandwiches arrive in midtown. Get the Marina, stuffed with smoked chicken breast, fresh mozzarella, sun dried tomatoes, & arugula. These sandwiches come pretty fully loaded. Read more

    Picking one of the classics at this SoHo sandwich shop is not easy. We're here to help, try the Pinocchio, comprised of prosciutto, sopressata, fresh mozzarella, sweet roasted peppers and olive paste. Read more

    Pinocchio on sfilatino. NEED the sfilatino! So far, sandwiches are just as amazing as their soho locale.I do miss the b&w tv playing old movies... I'm sure the owner / sandwich making god does too!

    Alidoro's newest pastry the Donnoli (connoli+donut) is available for $4 at the midtown location. The donut portion is dusted with powdered sugar, and the filling is ricotta cheese and cream. Read more

    The Pinocchio sandwich is amazing. Sandwiches are a little expensive at $13, but they're really good gourmet sandwiches

    The Il Soprano was really good. Everything was very fresh. Prices are steep but the sandwich is huge. Can get two meals out of it.

    The sandwiches are massive -- for example, the sfilatino bread will be ~18 inches. Easy to share one of these. A good place to start is the namesake Alidoro.

    If the Maserati made its way up from the SoHo location, don't even bother looking at the menu. Prosciutto cotto, hot peppers, arugula - its the perfect sandwich

    Probably the only truly great place to get lunch within, what, 10 blocks? Alidoro can’t be beat. The Il Sole hot sandwich is delish.

    Best sandwiches! Avoid the long line by going before 12pm or after 2pm. You can also place your order on their website, and skip half the line

    Ok so now I know what the fuss is about. Tried the Alyssa on focaccia and it was really good. Lines are very long though. Go early or call in your order.

    The sandwiches are only subtly different from each other, but oh so tasty. Huge, split with a friend.

    The Porchetta with the tender pork, roasted red peppers, arugula, and sweet peppers is delicious.

    Pricy but delicious sandwich. Order ahead during peak times otherwise you will spend a ridiculous amount of time waiting.

    Love the sandwiches here but after they lost mine twice, and kept me waiting for 20minutes each time, I decided it's not worth it.

    The worst capuccino ever. The milk was almost boiling, combined to that terrible lid that you have to tear a hole made it impossible to drink on my way to work. Walk few blocks and go to Blue Bottle.
