Cosa Nostra Italian Deli

Hands down, the best Italian sandwiches I’ve had. From the moment you walk in, the place impresses—beautifully designed, warm, and effortlessly inviting. We ordered the Meatball Sandwich and the Mortadella Sandwich, and both were outstanding. Perfectly balanced flavors, high-quality ingredients, and impeccable execution. Every bite felt intentional and well thought out. We also tried a couple of desserts (I can’t recall the names, but I’ve added photos because they truly speak for themselves), and they were absolutely delicious—the perfect ending to an already excellent meal. Service was exceptional: attentive, genuine, and welcoming, which elevated the entire experience. I honestly recommend this spot 100%. If Google allowed more than five stars, I would gladly give them more. A true gem worth seeking out.

Absolutely loved our visit to Costa Nostra Deli! The food was incredible, and the entire experience was just wonderful from start to finish. I wasn’t even sure what to order, but the woman helping us was so kind and knowledgeable—she walked me through the options, made a few recommendations, and she was spot on. Everything she suggested was delicious. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and we had the best time sitting outside, chatting and laughing together. The authentic Italian food did not disappoint—the meats were amazing, and Chris ordered the charcuterie board, which was fantastic. We tried a variety of items and truly enjoyed every bite. I forgot to take photos of most of the food (that’s how good it was!), but this place is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommend stopping by, ordering something amazing, and enjoying the experience. We’re already looking forward to coming back again soon!

Overall taste, very good I ordered a meatball sub Served on a ciabatta bread very good. My preference besides of the mozzarella I would’ve added something a little bit more sharper like provolone, or asiago as well. The second sandwich I ordered was Prosciutto di Parma 2 Prosciutto di Parma also served on a ciabatta bread, which is fantastic, burrata, pesto, arugula, balsamic glaze & olive oil. I wish both of the sandwiches were a little bit bigger besides that they were fantastic. Dessert’s we ordered a pistachio cheesecake & cannolis. Cannolis were awesome and the pistachio cheesecake a winner as well. again, I wish they were bigger Very underwhelming in size specially for the price. Don’t get me wrong, They’re on point. Overall the restaurant had a great vibe and decor. And for as busy as it was It did not take long to get your order. It’s a definite keeper as residences of Clermont we’ll revisit this location.

First experience today and yummo! We ordered Muffaleta Nostradamus ($13.99) (salami, mortadella, Italian ham, mozzarella, provolone, giardiniera sauce, lettuce, red onion, tomato, aioli), a Smoked Turkey sandwich (2.99) ( smoked Turkey breast, filintjna cheese, pecorino cream, tomato, lettuce, aioli), and a Italian Salami sandwich($12.99) (Italian salami, provolone, red onion, roasted red pepper, tomato and aioli), and we added chips and soda to two of the sandwiches which was $3.49 each and a Biscoff Latte ($6.99). Our bill fir all of this was $65.20 before tip so this isn’t an inexpensive lunch fir three people…however it’s a tasty and quality lunch. Service was pretty quick and we received our order pretty quick. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. Inside there are three tables fir four and two tables fir 2 people. We dined starting around 2:45 pm and there was a line to order to the door after we walked in. We were lucky to get a table inside. That’s great but with so many people inside without tables waiting fir their orders, it felt crowded fir us. They have deserts (cakes, pastries, gelato) and several packaged Italian products. We will return and will likely bring friends!

Cosa Nostra is a delicious collision of Italian and Brazilian influences, spotlighting expertly sliced cured meats and cheeses, gourmet sandwiches layered on fresh-baked bread, indulgent stuffed pastries, and silky house-made gelato. Every detail feels intentional. The menu delivers big-city flavor in a cozy downtown Clermont setting, making it an easy go-to from elevated café drinks to a thoughtful wine selection, plus a seriously satisfying lunch or dinner. Don’t skip the coffee—the Biscoff latte is rich and indulgent, and the pistachio latte is perfectly balanced and nutty. Absolute standouts.

Cosa Nostra Italian Deli is truly a hidden gem in downtown Clermont. The deli is spotless and offers a welcoming, family friendly atmosphere. The staff is exceptionally friendly and professional, making every visit enjoyable. There’s both indoor and outdoor seating available, perfect for any kind of day. We tried the meatball sandwich, the Prosciutto di Parma 1 and 2 sandwiches, and my grandson loved the kids mozzarella flatbread. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Cosa Nostra Italian Deli has quickly become one of my go to local favorites, a wonderful spot that never disappoints!

My husband and I have been in a cultural depression since our trip to Italy last year, and have been searching for a good Italian cafe ever since! Who knew that this perfect little place would be tucked away in Clermont FL?? Honestly this place is worth the waiting in line for (and they always have a line out the door)! From their authentic Italians sandwiches and desserts to their delicious pistachio and Nutella lattes, this place is perfect for a lunch date. Their baristas and cooks know their Italian flavors, and they are so friendly at the register, truly a hard combo to come by in the central Florida dining atmosphere! The only downside (because they’re so busy), is that finding an open table to sit at will take you longer than a minute. But most people come and eat quickly at Cosa Nostra so the tables become available for those that bring a skosh of patience with them to lunch. Again best Italian sandwiches, coffees and atmosphere this side of the Atlantic, our love for this place isn’t just business it’s personal!

Cute place! I love it! Great veggie flatbread, made it vegan by asking for no cheese. They were so accommodating, checked the ingredients of everything to make sure it would be vegan. Thank you Caroline for checking with the chefs! For the owner: Please bring back artichokes for the veggie flatbread!

After several visits here I have to report that the service, quality and environment is still a 5 Try the new quiche Lorraine and Italian Sausage sandwich. Delicious beyond your expectations. The super Tuscany sandwich and charcuterie delli casa is perfect for couples and groups to share. Service is also a key here. Second to none in Central Florida and beyond. They know how to treat people genuinely. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

Absolutely fantastic little Italian café. From the moment we walked in, everything felt warm, welcoming, and authentically Italian. The food was outstanding. I ordered the pepperoni flatbread and it was perfection. Crispy, flavorful, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. My husband had the prosciutto di Parma sandwich and couldn't stop raving about it. Fresh bread, perfectly balanced flavors, and generous portions. You can tell a lot of care goes into both the food and the experience. This is the kind of place you finish eating and immediately start planning your next visit. If you're looking for delicious Italian comfort food done right, this spot is a must.

Small deli with huge flavors in downtown Clermont. They have counter ordering with a few tables inside and other tables set up outside around the corner building. The staff was all very friendly and shared information about the food and just very friendly overall. I had the turkey BLT, but switched it out for grilled chicken and it was delicious. I loved that the bread was soft and not very filling. My youngest had the prosciutto and burrata sandwich (Prosciutto de parma 2) and the oldest had the caprese sandwich. Both also really enjoyed their food items. After dinner they had the Bischoff ice cream and we took home a Bischoff croissant, Bischoff donut, and Bischoff cheesecake (do you see the theme here??) All were delicious and were eaten with the next day or two. I had the affogato as my dessert which was good. Definite spot to stop in for quick delicious food!

I LOVE Cosa Nostra! Great service, food and vibe! Plenty of tables inside and out. Easy line with menus on a stand near where you order. Their food is delicious. My favorite is the Italian Salami Sandwich..... ITALIAN SALAMI, PROVOLONE CHEESE, RED ONIONS, ROASTED BELL PEPPER, TOMATO, AIOLI. It's scrumptious. They serve coffees and drinks, salads and desserts including gelatos. Note: closed Monday.

This is a cute Italian sandwich spot. Got the meatballs sub it was yummy! And this delicious dessert that had whipped cream, so yummy! It is a little small inside but we sat outside and saw some street performers and had a nice time.

Clermont~ I come to this cute little town, on business, a lot, so I finally decided to try this deli. I have had their gelato in the past, but decided to try a sammy this time. Oh boy!! My sandwich was absolutely delicious! I had a hard time deciding because there were a lot of selections that sounded really good. I decided on the Prosciutto Parma # one. The combo of the salty prosciutto, and the sweet jam, along with the bitter arugula was perfection with every bite!! Since I am in this part of town every eight weeks or so, I will definitely be back!!! Service was also with a smile.

Cosa Nostra is a quaint Italian deli in downtown Clermont that will not disappoint! We quickly became regulars at Cosa Nostra. Whether it's for a breakfast croissant and a coffee or latte, or for lunch/dinner for a flatbread or sandwich, everything is delicious! All of their ingredients are so fresh and flavorful! And their bread is light and delicate. Some of our favorites: roasted veggie, Italian ham and the meatball subs. We usually enjoy our meal, then get back in line for dessert. Definitely recommend that approach, as their sweet croissants, bomboloni and gelato won't disappoint. Their staff is amazing - always so friendly, kind and helpful. Very much one big happy family ambiance! Camilla and Clara always have smiles and are so welcoming! Besides for the food, we always look forward to their welcoming and warm bistro atmosphere.

Five of us ate here the other day and everyone enjoyed the food. If you're looking for a great Italian sandwich, whether it's a meatball sub, an Italian sub or a Caprese sandwich on light homemade brioche rolls you will not be disappointed. There are soups and desserts galore. All homemade all delicious if desserts are not your style gelato is available as well as many authentic Italian staples that you can take home. The sandwiches are quite large and can easily be eaten for lunch the next day. The staff is friendly and helpful in making decision decisions. Interior seating is extremely limited, but they have outside seating as well. It is always busy regardless of the day so you might want to leave a little extra time for the wait it is a little pricey compared to some other places, but they deliver on quality and quantity. Will definitely be back.

This was one I was excited for, and now I'm excited to go back. I got the smoked turkey and added pickles and onions. My mom asked for something off menu, and they were nice enough to accommodate. We both had modifications, and they came out as ordered. I loved that these were served warm. I want to return to try other sandwiches and the desserts!!! The only reason I didn't order dessert here was because it was the farmer's market and I was planning on picking something else up.

Service is great, food is amazing, place is lovely and clean. 10/10 recommend. The spinach feta oastry and the procuttio sandwich to die for

I love coming to this place! I typically will get either a vegetarian flatbread or a vegetarian sandwich. Both are incredibly good! I'm tempted every time to try something new and different when I come here but I also go for the same thing just because it is really that good. I don't eat meat but I'm sure their meat options are equally as amazing! Service is always nice! And the restaurant is always clean! There's outdoor seating and food never takes too long even when they're busy! I highly recommend this place if you're in the area!

Very good soup of the day! Lasagna The service was very good. Everything was packed well. The bread was hard. The desserts looked amazing.

As a Clermont native, it can be tough to find a place that you can consistently go to and still feel like it's a new restaurant each time. Cosa Nostra was formerly located in the west end plaza but after seeing a ton of positive response, it is now located at the old corner stone music location on Montrose street. For those who have lived in Clermont a while, the closure of Cornerstone was one of sadness, but with the arrival of Cosa Nostra - there is a nice salami sized ray of hope. I usually get the Super Tuscany and the Mortadella and they are ALWAYS on point. The bread is always crispy and the meats are properly put on with the greens and with the oil and oregano is always toasted. I absolutely love the sandwiches here and I know for a fact whenever we are craving Italian, this is where we go. The service is quick style and they also have a monitor that you can order from as well if you don't feel like talking to someone. The employees are always super nice and if you do want something sweet they have a great Tiramisu and Gelato as well. Consistency is KEY and they have the KEYS

These sandwiches are the real deal! Everyone in the family loved them. We had the chicken parm, mortadella and capocolla were our sandwichs of choice. We may have to make another stop on our way back through. The shop is small, they were busy and we were still able to find a seat.

Great Italian sandwich spot in the area! It was bustling for the lunch crowd and felt really nice to have a place like this in downtown Clermont. Felt like an eatery you would find in Winter Garden. The area is growing a lot. Everyone in our party really enjoyed the sandwiches, all were filled with flavor , my roast beef was nice & warm with a kick from the jalapeño. It was worth ordering again! The menu is extensive so it was hard to pick something since it all looked GOOD. Also, the pastries look incredible , will need to try that next time for breakfast!

Cosa Nostra means Our Thing, so this is Theirs. You will find sandwiches, flatbreads, salads, gelato, and drinks here. I love how theirs a big screen showing all of their offerings. We picked out a flatbread that was nice and sweet and savory, the Proscuitto de Parma flatbread. There's a couple options here with the same name, so make sure to get the one you like. It was quite tasty and a perfect snack for us. They also have diff Italian foodie items to purchase and make your own great food. It was a nice open clean spot and a great alternative to Montrose Street Market across the street.

Oh my goodness the most amazing sandwiches they Guido sandwich artists from New York. Fresh fresh fresh and stacked and the flavors are succulent. The desserts are to die for and the gelato. Yum and the place is buzzing with friendly people you order at the counter and you go pick up your food and bring it to your table and you can eat inside or outside and it's just a great place to go again and again and again

A great Italian sandwich is essential to a happy food life - I use to always order Italian hoagies, subs, sandwiches and grinders and after so many dud and sub par experiences I lost my desire to even try them anymore. Cosa Nostra revived my love for a good Italian sandwich. The attention to detail, sourcing of quality ingredients and commitment to authentic flavors it's absolutely next level. I went with the Muffuletta Nostra and it was absolutely amazing. Anyone who enjoys a good Italian sandwich must give this place a try - you will be so glad you did. Bravo to to all the staff of Cosa Nostra!

I don't know why it's a 4.9 because this place is a solid 5 stars! It's very Italian decorated however everything is perfection: decor, clean, organized. The sandwiches are not cheap however they are with the best quality meats, the sandwich is really a large portion. I split the Very Tuscany with Ronnald M. and I was full. And I even shared my half with my little dog :) it was just delicious: the bread, meats, peppers and right amount of pesto. Outdoor and indoor seating. Just yum can't wait to come back!!

The food was exceptional. We lucked into this spot. Highly recommend the meatball sandwich and make sure to save room for dessert.

Just simply delicious. The options of sandwiches and fresh cut deli meats and cheeses are available all day. Additional Italian food items for your pantry are also available for purchase. Our sandwich was delicious with the right amount of fresh ingredients and the bread was very fresh. I cannot wait to come in for breakfast with the smell of freshly baked bread Italian style. Pretty busy for a weekday night, but customer service was attentive. The soup looked very tempting as well and that gelato and pistachio items will definitely be on my order next visit

Amazing!! From the mortadella and burrata sandwich to the tomato soup and the icing on the cake...the pistachio gelato!! This place is a literal hidden gym in downtown Clermont! This was my first time visiting last night, but the hubby and I both agreed it won't be our last! All of the ingredients were so fresh. The staff was super friendly and engaging! Cosa Nostra you've got a good thing going!

No bag for my Muffaletta and oil dripped all over my shirt and shorts after forgetting to include my pistachio donut. I called and they credited my card for the forgotten donut. I hope the wash will get out the oil for a seventy dollar polo shirt? They were not rushed at lunchtime which confuses me as to how could the my get things so wrong?

Cosa Nostra, allow this Yelp review to be my formal apology. I am so sorry that I didn't give you guys a try when you were located in the West End Plaza. The fact that your business was able to grow into a stand-alone location inspired me to finally give it a try. And now I'm singing your PRAISES. I don't even like sandwiches - but I LOVE these sandwiches. The best word to describe this place is FRESH. From the bread, to the meats, to the cheeses to the PESTO - FRESH. FRESH. FRESH. I got the Italian Ham, and let me tell you... This is the BEST sandwich I have EVER had in my life. There is very few seating, which is my only con. But I plan to be a regular at this deli because it's just that delicious.

The best Muffaletta around these parts of Central Florida. It's not New Orleans but a great substitute. I enjoyed every single bite of this yummy sandwich. The mortadella, meats and cheeses along with giardiniera salad made that an excellent choice for my lunch as I drive through Clermont on my way towards So Fla. It's a block off of 50 so you gotta grab a parking spot and the deli is on the NorthEast corner of the Historic District. You could see the whole town knows where to eat! I am going to try more sandwiches as I go back home to Weeki Wachee!

Real Italian deli flavors, real Italian deli meats, real Gelato, real imported ingredients, and really good food! Daily fresh made soups, fresh sliced meats for decadent big filling sandwiches, desserts and a handful of take-home real Italian pastas and sauce ingredients. It's counter service, limited seating, but all new in November '24 when they moved from their prior food hall location. Fresh modern feel in a rehabbed old downtown Clermont building. It is great and serves up some excellent food.

The Prosciutto di Parma 1 sandwich was amazing. My husband had the Pastrami 1 and also said the same. Highly recommend!

The smoked salmon croissant was so delicious. It melted in my mouth. The cappuccino was made topped with a heart and absolutely perfect. This is our new favorite restaurant. Clean inside and outside seating had spacious and clean tables. A huge win for downtown Clermont. Top-notch customer service as well. Winning all around!

Had a wonderful experience this afternoon for lunch with my mom and kids. We sat outside had a wonderful sandwich/glass of wine. My kids shared a pepperoni flatbread and it was all so delicious! Will be going back many times again.

Delicious. Period. This is a nice little corner spot to have either a small breakfast of amazing croissants and flavorful coffee rich with Nutella or pistachio cream surrounding the rim of yo cup or thick Italian sammiches. Make the Super Tuscany as your first lunch sammie here. You wont be disappointed.

Very fresh ingredients and a good portion size! Have been CRAVING a proper Italian sub since moving from Jersey and this will definitely be my spot. Was able to taste test the soup which was super kind of the staff. We ordered the prosciutto de Parma 2 and the Super Tuscany (next time I'll hold off on the aioli) and both were fantastic! We were there on a Thursday at 5 and got the happy hour special of two small cannolis and a cappuccino for $6.99. Fast casual atmosphere, a few tables inside and outside to enjoy your food on location or you can walk to the lake and enjoy it there!

I am visiting family in Groveland, FL and while in Clermont I needed a quick snack. I love a caprese salad at home so that is what ordered. Fresh, crisp, the pesto was delicious. And since I'm out of town I treated myself to their lemoncello cake. Soft, moist, slightly tart, heavenly. So cute in downtown Clermont, FL.

All I can say is Wow ! Incredibly fresh quality meat on a nice toasted baguette. The flavors were wonderful. I probably won't ever go any place else for a sub. We also tried their nutella croissant hazelnut Yummy! The service is excellent, very friendly and knowledgeable. The restaurant itself is quaint and clean. A little crowded cause it is not a very big restaurant but there is also outside seating. Run don't walk to Cosa Nostra! AAA+++

The sandwiches here are the real deal! Truly authentic Italian. My favorite was the Prosciutto di Parma 2. That was so flavorful! You can tell they really care about what they're doing... the attention they put into making each sandwich makes all the difference. I also tried the pistachio croissant, and wow... I cannot wait to get another one. It was insanely good flaky, rich, and full of flavor. I loved it! The environment is great too, very welcoming and relaxed.

This place single handedly changed my life on Italian subs. We got two sandwiches the salami and the super Tuscany. I switch the lettuce for arugula however. Both were AMAZING. Bread was crispy but soft and fresh, the meats sliced super thin. Perfect amount of everything. We also got two sodas that were SO GOOD and had no high fructose corn syrup so they weren't syrupy and too sweet, just simply refreshing. We also got some gelato, the salted caramel flavor. Soo yummy, and you can tell by how their gelato is flat not "whipped" it's authentic. Signed up for the loyalty program because we loved it so much and KNOW we will be back. I'd even come here for a date night I loved it so much . We look forward to trying many other things in the future and highly recommend this place.

Great food, they cared about making sandwich and the presentation and asked questions to make sure about certain ingredients. Overall it was delicious!! We cannot wait until they open in their own location! Currently they are in a food hall with a bunch of great vendors.

Finally got out this way for the Clermont sandwich shop I've been hearing about. Cool little place for food and such. Had the nostra muffalatta, chips and can soda. Meal is what it is, nothing special sandwich with chips and a drink.

Affogato heaven. Ordering an Affogato in the states is difficult experience filled with disappointment but not at Cosa Nostra. The cup was chilled with vanilla gelato and they pulled a great shot of espresso right on it. I loved it. You have to try it too.

We moved here from Massachusetts, and let me tell you -- finding a good Italian sandwich in Florida is no easy task... until we found Cosa Nostra! Their sandwiches are top notch -- the quality, the flavor, the freshness -- it's everything we've been missing. I've tried several different ones and each one has been delicious. Maybe one day I'll make my way through the whole menu! This place is the real deal. If you're craving a true Italian-style sub, this is where you need to go.

First time here ordered the super tuscany.Oh my god, if you close your eyes, you really feel like you're in Italy. The flavors were amazing. Can't wait to go back. Friendly atmosphere.

My husband and I tried the deli tonight for dinner. He ordered a smoked turkey club and I ordered a caprese flat bread. The flat bread had mozz, pesto, tomato sauce, tomatoes and a balsamic glaze. It was sooo good! We also got an order of cannolis to take home with us. We will definitely be back.

I always get the Cotto 1 (Italian ham) and it's ALWAYS delicious! I appreciate the consistency over the years. The ingredients are fresh and authentic. The staff are so friendly and attentive. Their area is clean and inviting. It's located towards the back of the food hall with a large Italian flag, you can't miss it!

Simplesmente Perfeito!! Super recomendo!!! Sanduíches deliciosos !! Espero voltar em breve!! Atendimento nota 1000 !!

Yes most definitely a great place to visit! First time coming here absolutely incredible!! The veggie sandwich was amazing then I had there gelato strawberry was amazing I give this place a 10 out of 10 so yummy

A beautiful Italian sandwich shop that is a gem in the center of Downtown Clermont. Amazing and fresh sandwiches with specialty toppings, great coffee, and good customer service.

Good food and friendly service! Would recommend to anyone looking for a good place to get a tasty Italian sandwich.

Ordered one of the special sandwiches - the muffuletta sandwich - and the tiramisu for carry out. Both were very good. The tiramisu was very fresh (as in it hadn't been sitting around for hours) and light and the sandwich had quality ingredients. Everyone was very nice and helpful with the menu selections. Cute spot if you want to eat there. Next time I hope to get some gelato.
