Split one of their stellar Italian sandwiches and enjoy it in City Hall park for the power summer lunch with a friend. Try the namesake Pisillo with porchetta, prosciutto & buffala mozzarella.

Consistently delicious.Definitely try to split one.My fav is the Napoli. Best panini place downtown if not in the city, hot peppers-amazing, too strong however, so getting then on the side is advised

This food is at a different level. The ingredients, the combination and the size of the sandwich is all you need for your tour around NY. The chefs are very nice and funny.

Definitely best sandwiches in FiDi, easily split for 2 people, cash only. Authentic Italian lunch spot.

The Pisillo sandwich is perfect, I highly recommend it. Then we ordered the number 18, Catanzaro. I'm used to eating spicy, but this sandwich was so spicy that the flavor was completely ruined.

Sandwiches are absolutely massive. Could make at least 2 meals out of one sub. Meats are high quality, everything is fresh. Not sure how people eat this for lunch on workday.

I heard lots of positive things about Pisillo's but never anything about the $. Because although it's a little on the expensive side it's absolutely worth it. Easily an entire days worth of sandwich.

This would be what i consider the epitome of an Italian sandwich. Every ingredient is very fresh as you can taste it, the meats are superb and imported i asked =) and the owner is very friendly

This is only half my sandwich. It's not a panini, it's a gigantic 2-pound hero with panini ingredients: smoked mozz, prosciutto, red peppers
Chris NatoliNovember 7, 2015
Awesome Italian sandwiches. Several vegetarian options. And the sandwiches are huge so they're actually pretty cheap since they're big enough for two meals

Super delicious sandwiches, very generous portions so be sure to split it with someone

Likely the best cold sandwich I’ve ever had in this city.
Helly SolomonDecember 17, 2021
This location was excellent. The sandwiches are huge. My mother and I each got a sandwich when we arrived. Because they are so large, I should have simply ordered one. They're full of flavour.
