“ I got a nice italian hero with salami, ham, prosciutto, fresh home made motzarella, marinaded mushrooms, ref peppers, perfectly baked italian bread for lunch. I really wanted a hot sandwich but on weekends there is none. This means i will have to come back on a weekday to try the hot menu offerings. I was able to share my sandwich, as its loaded with meats, really hit the spotin taste and freshness. ”
“ Everything. This place is wonderful and old fashioned at its finest. I wish you would deliver ”
“ Great stuffed Schell's and sandwiches, the best! Meatballs are wonderful. Everything here is delicious, almost as good as my grandmothers. ”
“ I was greeted by the owner after placing an order for the Turkey Deluxe. She was so incredibly nice and welcoming, and shared with me this eatery is indeed fact and institution to the area since-what? 1920? It's incredible that this place is still around and it is absolutely important that these New York originals do what they have to remain. It is these places that keep the spirit of New York as special as it is. The Turkey deluxe was one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. The gravy, made fresh daily, was perfectly savory without being salty or overpowering in flavor. The turkey felt like it was the best leftovers the evening after thanksgiving. You know how sometimes the turkey your grandmother made is somehow even better the next day? It was exactly like that, and with mozzarella. I had mine cold but definitely will have it hot next time for the variety. The bread was soft, fragrant, and had just the right amount of bite. The flavor profile was deepened by the gravy being soaked up. Again, big day after Thanksgiving vibes. All in all, I'm very happy and proud, as a native New Yorker, that these important places remain stalwart. Hope I can visit again soon. ”
“ Fantastic sandwiches. Had the Super Italian with oil/vinegar and hot peppers. Excellent choice! Great bread and great mozzarella. Will be returning. ”
“ The special is a great sandwich! Love it! And the pastries next store are the best! Owner id a lovely lady and very welcoming ”
“ I'm so happy that we found Leo's! We had the Friday special eggplant parm hero. One was huge and enough for 2 of us to share. Super good, filling hot, homemade authentic Italian sandwich. Irene is wonderful and sweet. ”
“ Great deli spot for classic Italian sandwiches. Got the mamas special and mozzarella hero. Both solid sandwiches filled with fresh ingredients and impactful flavor! Friendly staff, got to meet Irene too! Clean on inside and gives off homey vibes. If you also want to eat sandwiches at their garden, it's on the same block inside the cafe they co-own ”
“ This is the most famous Italian deli in Queens. It has been here and run by the same family for over 100 years. I've always wanted to stop and try their sandwiches, which are supposed to be outrageous. The food at the U.S. Open is notoriously expensive, so I'm happy were able to make the stop. I ordered the Mama's Italian hero special by phone & will pick it up in :30. Once I was here I realized that they had piles of ready made sandwiches to grab and go. Everything looked and smelled delicious. The shop was packed with gourmet Italian items piled up to the ceiling. Our sandwiches were delicious. The bread was so fresh, there were thick slices of fresh mozzarella, and the meat was generous. Lunch was a real treat. ”
“ Mama reigns supreme! The top tier Italian deli/ cheese shop on a key corner Corona that's big on the Mets and keeping Italian traditions going.. she's an ideal ambassador for culinary legacy here in Corona. Big stop for Mets fans I hear. I understand the sandwiches are top notch but we bought Italian staples like fresh mama made mozzarella and imported Italian olive oil & artichoke. All Jarred goods were wrapped on Leo's butcher paper and you feel the love and traditions here. ”
