Pisillo is a cozy Italian deli rocking massive sandwiches stuffed with high-quality cured meats and fresh ingredients, making every bite a feast to remember.
"Pisillo is, hands down, one of the best Italian sandwich shops in Manhattan. The sandwiches are simple, but made with extremely high-quality ingredients. There are over 30 varieties to choose from, all of which are massive. And the Italian news blasting on the TV is all the atmosphere you need." - kenny yang, neha talreja, hannah albertine
"Good bread and an impressive selection of high-quality Italian cured meats, from sopressata to mortadella, helps drive the cult following this sandwich shop has amassed. The portions are almost laughably generous; a single sandwich can easily feed two or more diners. Pisillo isn’t perfect — a sandwich might be marred by a wan winter tomato, or call out for some sort of dressing to moisten it — but the fundamentals of a quality deli are there." - Eater Staff
"The Italian sandwiches at Pisillo are simple, but they’re made with phenomenal ingredients, and if you get one delivered at 10:45am, you won’t look at your kitchen again until dinner." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, arden shore, matt tervooren

"If you do your ordering in around the Financial District, you may think that you don’t have a lot of great options. But, you’d be wrong. Pisillo is a funky little shop that’s very authentic (they are usually playing Italian soccer on the TV, if you’re not convinced) and makes some of the best, most underrated Italian sandwiches in the city. They’re also absolutely enormous. You can probably share. Order Now" - katherine lewin, hillary reinsberg
