Disappointed with the lack of flavor in the chicken parm and eggplant sandwiches here. They are served on the hugest hero rolls ever (too much bread), have a good amount of sauce and both the eggplant and chicken were very tender. Very little cheese and not too oily. That is all good but the strange thing was that even though they had a good amount of sauce, the sauce added zero flavor. It was perhaps the most flavorless sauce you could get (but didn't taste like paste- that's a plus). The chicken had no flavor, but the eggplant did. Having just the eggplant alone would have been quite good.
Very friendly service!
I came here not knowing what to expect other than a great old-school Italian deli. I am originally from OzonePk Arce so I frequent many of these types of sandwich places in Howard Beach at my local neighborhood. I checked in on yelp and the offer was for a free reusable grocery bag. However when I try to redeem this offer they told me that they did not have any in stock. Not a big deal I ordered a pizza and beer special for my children obviously I have a beer and I ordered myself a massive Italian cold cut sandwich with pretty much every single deli meat that they had they did not disappoint us while we were eating a wonderful lady came over and tap me on my shoulder and said when you guys are done I'd like to get the kids some gelato for free since we didn't have the free reusable grocery bag for you. This is above and beyond great customer service they just want to make you happy and they surely did the five stars is not just only for the customer service it's for fantastic food the pizza was made right from my children they watched as a gentleman stretch that though spun it around added sauce and cheese and then cooked it in their pizza oven my kids were thrilled this is a fantastic family institution that I highly recommend you go visit the days of family owned operations like this are slowly coming to an end there are few and far between so frequent these wonderful places that care about their customers and you won't leave disappointed
While I haven't been to every Italian deli in NYC, I am confident that Tino's is the best in the city. There are days where I am craving Tino's so much that I will take the long ride to the Bronx just to satisfy my craving.
Everything is outstanding – for first timers, I recommend the chicken parm hero, yum! I love the pasta fagioli with some fresh Italian bread on the side. If you're looking for something different, I also sometimes custom order a panini with breaded chicken, mozzarella and pesto sauce – amazing!
Aside from the prepared food, soup, and sandwiches, all of their coffee beverages and cannolis filled fresh on the spot are absolutely incredible!
Better yet, Tino's caters so give them a ring for your next family party or Fordham tailgate. Don't make a trip to the Bronx zoo or botanical gardens without making a stop at Tinos, you have no idea what you are missing!!
If I was allowed to wish something for a business, it would be that I wish this location was closer to me – like right next door.
I don't come here as much as I wish I could because of it's location, but when I do their food completely hits the spot and does not disappoint. Ever, This is about as Italian of a deli as it gets with it's selections. The selections are plentiful and there isn't enough space here to list them all or even get close.
I usually get a sandwich from here most of the time. They are very generous with their meats in the heroes, that a friend of mine often takes out a bunch to save for a later sandwich.
There's spots inside to sit and eat if you want to, though I never have.
One complaint from other reviewers is the price. I hardly have any complaints about the price (though I've never ordered much more than a sandwich – though that will eventually change). The food is great here and from what I've seen, the prices seem about right for the selections and the area. I don't like getting overcharged for anything, but I have had no issues when it comes to paying at the register. No surprises.
The staff is always very friendly.
Parking is horrendous here. It's Arthur Avenue and gets VERY busy during the day and on weekends. If you're lucky to find street parking, be sure to check the signs since there are various times you can and can't park, as well as there are meters you need to pay for. There's municipal lots around the general vicinity if you prefer that.
If you're in the area for some good quality food or just for a simple hero or wedge, try this place out. You won't regret it.
After spending some time walking around the Bronx Zoo I was hungry for some sort of Italian Sandwich and Yelp lead me to Tino's. This is a great little Italian deli in the heart of the Bronx little Italy. After scouring the menu I decided on the Godfather. I think I knew that's what I wanted all along. This had some of your typical Italian meats including spppresata, cappy, and some provolone. However, the addition of the fired eggplant was a great touch. The added hot peppers and the oil and vinegar really made for the perfect sandwich.
THIS PLACE WAS AWESOME.
Everything was/is good – the chicken parm, the godfather, the godmother, the penne al la vodka…no complaints. the mozz balls. really good atmosphere – had a group of 8 people, we got the big table inside and kept going back for more food/sandwiches. didn't get a chance to try the pizza, but no complaints here. would suggest to anyone who is walking through little italy if you want to grab something quick (and not spend so much money on a sitdown dinner!)
Official rating: 4.5 stars! Lovely staff (gave me a hefty sample of sheep's milk ricotta imported from Italy that morning), amazing food (seriously…noodles made fresh in house!), and very reasonable prices. This place is simply wonderful and a phenomenal choice for take out in Bronx Little Italy! You should seriously consider swinging by Tino's on your way home from the NY Botanic Garden or Bronx Zoo. I recommend the lemon chicken, lasagna, sausage and peppers, and rice balls…out of this world!!
Authentic Italian place in the Bronx! Actually never been to Italy so I have no idea what is considered authentic but everyone working there was Italian and so were most of their customers. Seemed authentic to me. They have a number of foods to choose from including sandwiches, pasta, salad, and other entrees. I ordered a salad because I came into the place with a slightly queasy and noxious feeling in my stomach but their salad and coffee cured it! Their iced coffee was really good and only $3! The Anna salad was fresh and light and the cranberries worked perfectly with it. I tried a bite of the mama rosa sandwich and it was super tasty as well. They had fresh ingredients and incredibly reasonable prices! Staff is super friendly so ask them if you have any questions. Stop by if you're in the Bronx-if I'm ever there again I know I will 🙂
