I love it here and come in frequently. It reminds me of my grandmother, who was very old and very Italian living in the... Bronx. My favorites are the pizza and prepackaged food for a dinner or lunch. I'll even get a slice pizza at an off timebecause it's still so good even if it was sitting out for a little while. I think it's the best NY slice in Arlington. They havetheir own sauce and dough; you can make your own pizza at home that is also delicious. Friday nights and Saturday during theday there are free wine tastings, which is always a joy to attend. The staff are super friendly. It's nice to sit outside or atthe storefront bar and grab a bite. This is their larger store and it's a great place to get specialty Italian groceries. Read more

We love the Andiamo coffee bar and are regulars here. After many years in Europe, this is our go-to if we want a taste of... authentic Italian coffee and snacks. The store itself is well-stocked and the pizza counter at the end of the store is aconstant favourite. Can?t go wrong! We like this location much more than the others. Read more

My first visit to the Italian Store in Westover could not have been any better. The store is clean, well laid out and the staff... is polite and efficient. Now let's get down to the food. I ordered 2 different sandwiches (one cold and one hot) and I wouldbe hard pressed to pick a favorite. They also have a good selection of packaged foods that assures there's something foreveryone's taste or needs. This is definitely a place to add to your must try list. It is on my love at first taste list so Iwill be back...and soon! Read more

Tastier $10 imported wines than you find at chain stores. Discount when you get 6. Incredible deli sandwiches (get the Capri)... and our kid (age 2) has just fallen in love with the cheese pizza, whole and by the slice. Leave extra time for whole pizzasthey get busy. By the slice is always good. We?ve had their party trays of cut sandwiches too which is genius for birthdays. Geta combo, pizzas too. Feed everyone! Read more

This has been an Arlington staple for years, and for a good reason! Excellent selection of gourmet food and wine, as well as... prepared foods in the refrigerator. Good coffee and amazing deserts. I am a fan of their thin crust pizzas - one slice willdefinitely fill you up. Some parking and outdoor seating are super convenient. Read more

This is a great store that has something for everyone. I've recently started getting their ready made foods from the... refrigerated section and everything has been yummy. I especially liked the eggplant parm. Illy coffee and tiramisu are great.Lots of gourmet wine, cheese and beer. I'm moving from Arlington but will continue to visit the Italian Store! Read more

Riding an electric bike with my son, an energy replenishment point on the way. There is ample parking lot here. Plenty of... outdoor dining tables, if you add an exquisite European-style garden, it will be more perfect, but he doesn't have it. This isa grocery store selling Italian food. Inside is like a food plaza composed of different partners. It sells raw meat, sausage,cheese, pickles, salads, pizza, sandwiches, drinks, seasonings, snacks, sweets, bread, ice cream, coffee, tea, drinks and more. I bought two pieces of pizza, and the young salesperson volunteered to help me reheat the pizza in the oven. It was veryheartwarming. Please remember that the pizza here is made with an electric infrared heating oven with pizza stone, not awood-burning pizza oven. . The pizza is also a New York style with rich ingredients, but it is easy to eat, and there is nocomplaint. Then I bought a cup of espresso coffee, a cup of cappuccino, and a piece of mullet bread. The coffee here isgenerally not special, although it uses lily coffee beans, it is also a professional commercial espresso machine. , But thetaste is like the coffee beans that have been opened for a long time, the fat is not very strong, and the cappuccino is just anormal American taste. The overall feeling of coffee is just one word, light. That mullet bread is just mediocre, a bit cold. Then I bought a cup of double-ball ice cream. My son had a very happy meal. Well, I'm still reliable with Nice Cream ice cream. Generally speaking, this is a concentrated place for leisure and socializing in the community. It is also a snack place formany parents and children after school. It has the convenience of home, long service hours, low prices, convenient parking, anda moderate location. One place can meet most of your needs. But he is not authentic, he has everything but nothing is donewell, he has no native Italian soul. What's the problem? Even if he is 100% Italian, how many people can care abo Read more

Truly wonderful place! My Italian wife was in heaven. They have everything from prepared foods (pizza, subs, coffee, desserts)... to a full range of Italian groceries and a nice wine area. Outdoor seating a plus as well. So shop there, dine there, or both! Read more
