Best Italian important store around! The ladies at the counter are very helpful and the selection is fantastic. I have out of state friends who have had some of their dried sausage and loved it so much they ask me to ship them a care package around the holidays!

This place is the best. Their sausage is used in local restaurants as it is so good. Their meatballs are also delicious. I usually go for some fresh grated cheese also! I am going today to get some burrata!

This is one of the few true Italian stores that actually make their sausage on the premises. You really should try their chicken sausage which is not only healthier for you, but delicious. They usually have it on Friday’s nice and fresh. Both hot and sweet sausage are also delicious. Braciole which is a staple in Italian sauces is nice and fresh offering both beef and pork. If you love to make fresh meatballs they sell the typical ground beef meatball mix of beef, pork and veal. Cheses are another fantastic item to buy and they offer such a great variety. The dry sausage is something to just devour. I LOVE this place. Stock up while waiting on the canned tomatoes(right from Italy) and dry staples like pasta. If you are lazy or just want to take a shortcut, they make their own meatballs sold frozen and they are honestly just as good as mine which takes me a few hours to make. It is located in a small area but has parking for about 10 cars.

Authentic traditional Italian sausage? Yup! Fresh out of the water hand tied creamy mozzeralla? Oh yes! Attention to detail, best quality, hand crafted in the old world tradition. Meats, cheese, cured meats, stuffed peppers, olives. Wholesale & retail. Attentive service.

Favorite Italian market in the area! You come in for one thing and you leave with five and that’s ok with me. They have every hard to find Italian item you’re looking for and the cheapest cold cuts and grated cheese around!

Hands down the best dry sausage I’ve had.(Tried the hot one.) Firm and dark with a hardly detectable casing. The fennel-garlic flavor makes it unique. Disclosure: I’m told that the founder was a close relative’s protégé. So we may share a learned taste for this type of salumi. Also tried the stuffed cherry peppers. Your average, high-quality variety. Huge peppers, though. Not mind-blowing, but definitely not disappointing.(It’s hard to see how you can experience a mind-blowing stuffed pepper anyway.)

La Molisana is a great place to find fabulous Italian specialty items. They are known for there excellent sausage that is distributed to numerous local and other restaurants around the country! I have also discovered that they make the best meatballs and homemade sauce that you can buy as well as fresh breads. Get there early in the day the bread goes quickly. It’s a great way to enjoy a homemade spaghetti and meatball diner without spending half the day in the kitchen.
