L. Mancuso & Son

Freshly made cheeses. Try the one-pound provolone ball. It keeps over a month. Best mozzarella in Philly. Their gourmet sandwiches are epic. Scrumptious olive salad. Excellent selection of coffees, sauces & condiments. Legendary.

Ordered catering from Mancuso for a party - a hoagie tray and an antipasti platter, both of which were outstanding. The quality of the "Muzz," "Sopresatt," "Proscuitt," and "Mortadell" was top-notch, and the hoagies were on point. W The complimentary pickles, cherry peppers, and long hots added a perfect touch. Chris was very helpful, guiding me through the menu, pricing, and options. He followed up the next day to confirm all the details and pricing, which I appreciated. I wish I lived closer so I could visit all the time!

“I’ve been going here for years, and I want to congratulate the new owners — they’re doing a fantastic job. It’s the only place I know that has mozzarella just like in Italy. The new facelift looks great. the store has never looked better. Great people, great products, and a true neighborhood gem.

Everything you could expect from a South Philly Italian Deli. No nonsense- just fantastic ingredients and great sandwiches. All the favorites are here- classic Italian, roast pork, chicken cutlet with sharp provolone and broccoli robbe, fresh sliced mozzarella… perfect example of a classic neighborhood hoagie / sandwich shop.

South philly is home to some of the best italian hoagies in the entire country. The old italian hoagie at Mancuso's is towards the top of that list.

Great hoagies, great cutlets, friendly & respectful guys in the shop. Everything South Philly you might want

My cousin gifted me some fresh mozzarella from here and my son loved it. I heard they make it fresh and they also make fresh ricotta. I stopped in to see the place and picked up some more fresh mozzarella. The store is a small, clean, specialty shop with many Italian lunch meats, olives, cheeses, peppers, just to mention a few items. I met Jake and Elaine today, and they are very nice and accommodating. Their mozzarella is great on sandwiches, it melts beautifully and it tastes great. The ricotta is delicious and their hoagie, made on Cacia's bread was delicious! Can't wait to try their other homemade specialties, like their rice pudding.

40 years old and lived in philly most of my life. This is perhaps the best Italian hoagie I’ve ever had. The meat was so thinly sliced. Only the best top notch ingredients. House made ricotta and mozzarella were incredible as well. Jake is a very nice friendly guy. 100% will be back. Again and again and again
