Eater Critic Robert Sietsema’s Worst Dishes of 2022 - Eater NY

"MozzLab is a soft-cheese manufactory rather obscurely located in Carroll Gardens and it makes some pretty good fresh mozz in several permutations." - Robert Sietsema

One of the best deli/small grocers in the neighborhood! I’ve been multiple times and I’ve never been disappointed. This most recent time we split an all day breakfast sandwich which had the classic potato, scrambled eggs, and mozzarella and we also tried the panelle special (fried chickpea patty with ricotta and arugula). Both were simple and outstanding. The staff are also always super friendly and ready to help. A little pricey but for high quality sandwiches it’s worth it. If you are in the neighborhood, worth a stop. If you are not, definitely make it a point to visit and pick up some high quality Italian grocery items while you’re there :).

Food was amazing. I can't say differently. The staff using their bare hands on my food (and the patron IGO me) however leaves me unsettled. So I can't kill them on the rating but hopefully management corrects this sanitary issue 😬

Most delicious, high quality sandwich I’ve had in New York! The Porchetta and Moonstruck sandwiches were incredible. They’re massive portions and you’ll want to finish the whole thing. You can also pick up high quality mozzarella/burrata as well as other various Italian staples. We grabbed some artisanal pastas and soppressata for later. And to top it off the staff/owners are incredibly friendly. 10/10 my new favorite sandwich spot - can’t wait to try my next sandwich!

Thank you Flor for your kindness. The food here is absolutely amazing and delicious and for anyone who has a peanut allergy, you do not need to worry at all. They do not use peanut oil. They use olive oil and canola oil and also the pesto sauce contains no peanuts. No nuts whatsoever so you do not have to worry or be afraid if you have a food allergy.

Walked past a year ago and had it saved. Glad I came back to try a sandwich! Got the chicken parm, which was very good. A couple spots that were tough, but it was overall very good with great sauce and bread (as other reviews mention). People inside were very nice, but it was frustrating that my sandwich took ~25 minutes to be ready when it seemed like they weren’t very busy.

This sandwich was delicious! The perfect lunch on a rainy day. My partner and I split it and we both agreed it was a good meal to split although if you're hungry def order yourself one. The bread and meat were good but (not surprising) the mozzarella was the best part! Great cheese pull :) The interior has minimal seating but a lot of stuff to order outside of sandwiches. Drinks and Italian foods and treats to go. Great neighborhood market and quick lunch!

Fairly traditional Italian sandwich shop, with a tad of Italian-American influence, on a quiet block in Cobble Hill. As the name itself suggests, the rich and epically-stretchy mozzarella made in house is the star of the show here - one of the best in the city, and better than the ones I had on Arthur Avenue. We shared the eggplant Parmesan and the pugliese (broccoli rabe and ricotta) sandwiches. I found the eggplant cutlet a bit too oily for my taste, but nonetheless every other ingredient here is a supporting actor next to the namesake.

Swung by here on a whim while waiting for Lucali's and am so glad I did! It's a nice and cozy shop with a great and interesting menu. The service was quick and friendly! There's limited indoor seating, but there's some outdoor seating available as well. I ordered a few proscuitto balls to-go and immediately loved it upon the first bite. I could probably eat a dozen of those on my own! I'd love to come back and check out their other menu items. Definitely recommend coming here!

High quality Italian provisions with great service. Try their tasty panini, especially their meatball parm! Love their ciabatta.

This place. WOW. This is the closest I've ever gotten to a sandwich that you could get in Italy itself, and I've tried a lot. Would absolutely recommend MozzLab, they had quick service and a couple tables (though it's definitely a grab and go vibe). I loved the fun Italian snacks and treats you could buy too. Great friendly staff. Will definitely be back ten more times! Get the mortadella sandwich!

I just had the best porchetta sandwich I've ever tasted in my life. The 5 star reviews are legit. Warm, fresh baked bread, delicious caramelized onions, and melt in your mouth porchetta. What a gem!

I stopped by this new wonderful place around a week ago having noticed it on one of my walks. On Yelp at that point, they were listed as closed on Mondays but I decided to go over and they were indeed open. They have a nice selection of Italian goods from fresh homemade cheeses and pastas to drinks and snacks and everything else and it reminds me a bit overall of Tavola though I think the prices here are overall cheaper. I was originally thinking of ordering the swordfish panini/panino but they didn't have the ingredients and they recommended the tuna panino. I'm usually not a fan of Italian style tuna but this one was a little bit different containing stracciatella, tuna, oregano, and arugula so I decided to go with it. As I was waiting, the friendly man was giving a sample of some cheeses to some other people there and I first had a taste of their fior di latte, specifically the al pesto, which was delicious. They were also giving a sample of their fresh mozzarella which was probably the best mozzarella I've ever had. Perfect texture and I will definitely be going back just to get some of this to make my own sandwiches. Staff was very ncie in short. The sandwich was excellent packed full of said ingredients and well worth it for the price. I personally had it for both lunch and dinner and while it's not as big as some of the other spots (being more similar to Tavola but a bit larger,) the flavors were far better. Very good spot. Will go back a lot.

Incredible place, it is like going to Italy without leaving USA. Small place, they have just tree small seating inside. It is run by the owner, you can hear people speaking italian, my husband was super surprised with the taste of everything, his eyes went wet trying the eggplant because it tasted just lime his nona.

#MozzLab is a paradise for all cheese lovers. I want to start off by saying the owner is such a sweet Italian man. He genuinely puts his passion into his work and wants to share it with everyone. They have a machine on site that makes fresh mozzarella daily. MozzLab offers so many goods (high quality ingredients), sandwiches (hot or cold), on the counter you'll see antipasto, grilled peppers, tuna salad, and they have an area where you'll find products from Italy (pastas, condiments). My favorite items from MozzLab are the sandwiches and homemade tiramisu. My go to sandwich has been the Caprese Panino (hot): Baguette bread. Mozzarella, tomato, mozz pesto, roasted red peppers, drizzled with olive oil. I am certain all the other sandwiches (which I will eventually try) are amazing as well. Come by the MozzLab!

I would like to thank the Yelp community for helping me to discover MozzLab. Henry street is a bit off the beaten path for me but I made the trip anyway. I ordered a Crudo sandwich, and a Mango tea. My sandwich consisted of Prosciutto, Fresh Mozzarella, and Arugula. The bread was very fresh, and the sandwich was tasty. The sandwich at $13.95 was fairly priced, but the tea at $3.00 was not. My bill was 18.50, and value was more like $16.00. Thank U next!

Prices at MozzLab are very strange. We recently purchased a few things for an aperitivo with a couple friends and we're shocked that our bill came to $150. Looking deeper at prices and Prosciutto Di Parma and Prosocutto cotto (like regular ham) are priced the same at around 25/lb! Italian Cotto is usually under 10/lb! Plus, grilled artichokes were priced at 25/lb and seafood salad at 30/lb, how is an octopus based salad only 5 dollars more expensive? More like why are grilled artichokes in oil outrageously expensive. It goes on, packaged taralli, 10 per bag (4 at Union Market), olives 20/lb, basic grilled veggies close to 30/lb. Maybe it's me, but it just seems that prices are going up on very random and inappropriate items. Plus, the seafood salad was over cooked and chewy. Save yourself the trip and walk straight to Caputo's Fine Foods. Real prices from an Italian American deli with many imported Italian items.

Are you a fan of mozzarella or panini's? This corner location has you covered for a very authentic experience. The staff was absolutely amazing, fun of energy and helpful with menu selections. The drink selection matches the food. There is seating along with bar tables outside. Finish up and head across the street for an ice cream desert!

Good place. Came on a Sunday afternoon and got food fairly quickly. The Porchetta was solid. Could use more ingredients like sun dried tomatoes or banana peppers.

The sandwiches are legit here. My favorite one is the mortadella, which comes with thinly sliced mortadella, mozzarella and pistachio spread. The ingredients were very fresh and delicious and the bread was also very good. They have a whole selection of cheeses, salads, and Italian market goods. Every time I go in here, I have to resist overbuying. I usually get my mozzarella from Caputos, but will definitely put Mozzlab into my rotation, especially given its convenient proximity to Mazzola Bakery.

Dropped by for a quick snack and randomly picked a warm mortadella panini off the menu...did I hit a jackpot?! Probably one of the most simple but beautiful sandwiches I've ever had. The bread was absolutely divine, warm, soft, with a perfectly crispy crust. The lady behind the counter was also SO sweet. Can't wait to come back!

Visiting a friend on Saturday night in Carroll Gardens we chose to have pizza at Mozzlab and it was wonderful!! The ingredients were so fresh. Unbeknownst to us it had a gluten free crust which tasted every bit as good as flour, and it was baked outside in a wood fire oven. Along with homemade mozzarella it was delicious!! And lovely people working there too. So much like the best of Italy! Will be back for sure.

Popped in not even hungry bc it looked great...ended up ordering the Porchetta sandwich and since i wasnt eating it right away asked for it not to be heated up. The man taking my order was very concerned bc he insisted the porchetta was best hot. he was relieved when i promised him i would heat it up in my oven before eating. seriously one of the best sandwiches ive had in years. they also have a great selection of cold salads/apps/etc. amazing spot!

This neighborhood isn't exactly hurting for legendary Italian markets and fare. Within walking distance of Mozz Lab are Caputos, Mazzola, Dafontes, Lucalis, Frankies, G Espositos, Court St Pastry and Ferdinandos (among many, many others). When this is your competition, you must step up your game or face an early exit. It's too soon to tell if Mozz Lab will stand the test of time like these other institutions, but the place is bringing an exciting level of refinement to an established formula. The mozz made on-site is delicious. You can see (and better yet, taste) all the crazy ways Italians have pulled the humble curd into various cheesy delicacies. The contorini or side dishes like broccoli rabe or roasted peppers are bright and beautiful. The sandwiches, above all else, are the perfect platform to demonstrate the power of cheese. The breakfast panini (potato, egg, and cheese) and the porchetta panini are early favorites. The prices are reasonable compared to other sandwich places in the area (thinking of you, Court St. Grocers, or Dafontes). If the owners are reading this, I'd love to see a Hoboken-style, Fiore-esque roast beef and mutz sandwich in the future.

The staff always seems happy to be there and serving you quality food. It's shiny, clean and new, but stills feel like a small family owned shop. You can't go wrong with any sandwich. Or anything really.

Lovely place. The fresh ricotta is the best I have found in Brooklyn so far. Excellent eggplant salad as well.

I like MozzLab very much. I have bought the mozzarella and the mozzarella di bufala, both excellent. I have bought a few other items as well. Service is friendly. Prices on some items are a bit high and they charge a 3% fee if you pay with a credit card, but this is not posted anywhere- I realized it only when I perused my receipt.

This place is paradise for those on a keto diet (and maybe also a little bit of hell). Among all the delicious looking carby offerings are sandwiches made on balls of mozzarella cheese. I didn't try the normal mozzarella, but I think this is different. It's shaped like a bagel and it has a chewy texture. I was skeptical but, I'll try anything once and it was INSANELY delicious (and decadent). I had the mortadella. So good. I also purchased some nduja, tuna salad (amazing), and scamorza (a smoked provolone like cheese). Everything was excellent. Their sandwiches looked amazing.

A welcome addition to Cobble Hill! Came by on a whim and was happy that I did! So many items that you just can't get at your local grocery store- many items are imported directly from Italy and I was excited to pick up a few new treats! Also I could not pass up the burrata which was literally to die for! A gentleman by the front counter made it by hand so its THAT FRESH! Nancy was also personable and friendly and even suggested items to try. Can't wait to return so I can try more delicacies!

The Porchetta sandwich is truly one of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten. I dream about this sandwich. I limit myself to this treat only every once in a while for fear of exhausting my taste buds on it. Their pizza slices are so delicious and my sons' favorite pizza. An absolute gem!

Phenomenal new addition to the neighborhood. The meatballs & bolognese sauce were some of the best I've ever had. The mozz, obviously, was delicious too. Kind staff. 10/10.

This place is wonderful! The owner is so friendly, and as newcomers he was generous in giving us a sample of one of his offerings. The burrata we got was amazing - and he makes all of his own mozzarella right there. So nice to have a local shop like this. Enjoy!
