"A staple since 1975, Romanelli’s is a go-to for Italian groceries — and the deli counter more than holds its own. The green, white, and red domed awning out front might not look like much, but inside, it’s all warm hospitality, shelves packed with Italian imports, and regulars who’ve been ordering the same sandwich for decades. The Italian Stallion, a towering mix of deli meats, provolone, and crisp veggies on fresh-baked bread, is a favorite. The antipasto salad is a sleeper hit, packed with cured meats, marinated peppers, and plenty of sharp provolone. Regulars know to grab a box of butter cookies or a fresh-filled cannoli before heading out. Whether it’s a quick stop for a sandwich or stocking up on pantry staples, Romanelli’s delivers a slice of East Coast Italian deli culture right in the desert." - Mcconnell Quinn, Nikki Buchanan
