"Dyker Heights-born and Staten Island-raised Joe Brancaccio opened his namesake Brancaccio’s sandwich shop in 2010. A decade and a half later, the takeout-only shop feels just as special, serving up Italian American sandwiches with a decidedly New York point of view. In particular, he’s set himself apart with a lengthy list of egg sandwiches (like one with guanciale and pickled onions). But there’s other options like a chicken cutlet with prosciutto, artichoke, and fontina cheese with herb hot sauce or a meatball sub with pine nuts and raisins." - Emma Orlow, Robert Sietsema
