Simply a wonderful, one of a kind experience. Friendly family owned and still Italian. I liked the pasta of the day as well as their soups (Clam chowder) the best. At a time when Italian means expensive, overated, and not at all Italian, this family has the real thing and they do it with pleasure and soul. Great Portland experience.

I ordered the italian sandwich which came highly recommended. The place had a nice atmosphere, and familiar aroma in the air. Growing up in an large east coast italian family, it brought back alot of great memories. My mom coming home with fresh cold cuts from the italian deli and fresh spuckie rolls from the bakery. That was until I paid for the sandwich and my euphoria caming to a screeching halt, similar to the noise a car skidding in the street makes. Close to ten bucks, I opened the bag with both hands and glanced in. A 4X4 square of sandwich. The meats were very tasty, yet for the price something was missing. I don't know, it was just ok for me -

Where does one start to describe a family and store dedicated to service, quality and selection for over 30 years? A total wine and Italian deli in downtown Portland. This is what a family business is all about! Armand Martinotti offers the biggest selection of the world’s wines in Oregon, vintages going back decades. Add to this his vast knowledge of wines and you need not go anywhere else. Frank Martinotti over sees the deli and cheese counter; you again find no one with a vaster knowledge of cheeses in Portland. Dixie Martinotti, the matriarch of the family keeps a watchful eye over everything. Go for lunch; go for a great selection, go just to be part of a disappearing lifestyle!
Pros: The store overall
Cons: None

My granndparents own this place. It has the best food. I recommend the salami and gelatto.

Great service, owners make you feel @ home, very friendly, food was fast and great, prices are reasonable, huge selection of italian products, probably the best in town, at logical prices (for imported goods). Wine selection is excellent. Try the procciuto from Parma, I'll try it in my next visit. Definitelly reccomend the place.

A throw back. Real Italian deli. Awesome wine selection, great Italian meats and cheeses, not to mention the best selection of Italian pre-packaged items around. Amazing service and a great lunch spot. Oh, if they have canolli that day grab some!
Pros: best selection, service, packaged goods
