Nottoli Italian Foods

I've been going here for cookies, subs, soups, and pasta since I was a little girl. I love this place oh so much for their great, but smallish, selection of Italian goods.

Well, it's miniature inside. The people making the sandwiches are usually fairly sweet. The clerks at the cash register are HORRENDOUSLY RUDE!! The clerk informed me that there was a ten dollar minimum if using a credit card to pay and then put my card in the register and decided she had the right to hold my card until I finished looking for something to add up to ten dollars. I asked her why she took my card and she said" I was holding it for you.' Who KEEPS  a customer's credit card? Oooooh, but if you look Italian, you get the royal treatment, smooches, samples, etc. If you just have an Italian last name like me, and you'd like a friendly, polite cashier,  forgeddaboudit.

Bari has better subs. Fontano's has way better subs.

Sandwiches were good but the place is FILTHY and the employees are extremely UN friendly.  I will not be going back.

While waiting an extremely long time for 3 sandwiches, I was looking around... and shouldn't have... I don't think this place has EVER been cleaned.  It's very tiny, very old, and everything is dingy and run down.  The cold case had tons of condensation on the doors and was not cold at all.  All the corners, nooks, and crannies of the store had piles of crud and dirt.  Thankfully I didn't see any bugs or I would have been outta there.  Under the meat slicer was piles of dried up food crumbles that had obviously been there a long time. I saw them making the sandwiches in back but I was really afraid to watch them handle my food.

They don't carry many dry/canned items here, and what they do have is basically anything you can get at a produce center like A&G or Tony's.  It's overpriced too.  

That being said, the Italian sub sandwiches were very good.  However the sausage sandwich had no sauce.  Just a dried up piece of sausage with a half melted slice of provolone on a piece of italian bread.  

They also make homemade cannolis that are delicious, but maybe not so fresh!  Another bonus was little packets of saffron at the register for a reasonable price.

I'm not sure what's up with this place.  It used to be alot better.
