"Known for affordable, classic Italian subs at the back deli counter, this nearly 100-year-old Italian specialty shop also has prepared salads, logs of spicy salami, stuffed peppers and olives, and a huge selection of imported cheeses and meats that deli workers are happy to slice up for snacking. Don’t leave without some mini cannolis or a slice of tiramisu, and feel free to peruse the extensive wine and Italian soda section on your way out. Picnic tables outside Union Market make for a great spot to chow down on your Italian snacks, but adventurous picnickers can drive or bus over to the U.S. National Arboretum for an idyllic backdrop during your outdoor meal." - Emily Venezky
