"With Frank Sinatra among its many loyal customers, this family-run Nolita institution has been making great, crusty bread since 1903. The Dennis is as delicious as it is hefty, with layer after layer of chicken cutlet, prosciutto, and fresh mozzarella providing extremely satisfying textural variety. You can easily get two meals out of this thing, and possibly even use it as a dumbbell." - willa moore, will hartman, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick
"This family-run Nolita bakery dates back to 1903 and makes heroes with great, crusty bread for about $17 each. Consider this a bargain—you can easily get two meals out of these things, and possibly even use them as dumbbells in case of a weight-lifting emergency. From cold cuts to meatball parm, every Italian deli standard is represented on the menu, but there's a reason the Dennis, their signature chicken cutlet and prosciutto sandwich, is the one scribbled at the top of the chalkboard. The Order: The Dennis. Parisi’s chicken cutlets are so crispy you’d think they couldn’t be juicy, and so juicy you’d think they couldn’t be crispy—and yet. They’re well complemented by the sweet-tart balsamic vinegar and soft mozzarella." - will hartman, willa moore, neha talreja, bryan kim, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
"A stroll through Little Italy isn’t quite the same without a stop into Parisi Bakery, established in 1903, that turns out inimitable sandwiches. The Dennis is especially good, a meld of chicken cutlet, prosciutto, mozzarella, tomato, balsamic vinegar, and herbs into one joyful mess." - Robert Sietsema
"Parisi Bakery opened in 1903, and once counted Frank Sinatra among its regulars. The man had taste: They make excellent crusty bread here, and even better sandwiches. From cold cuts to meatball parm, just about every Italian deli standard is available—but The Dennis is the sandwich scribbled at the very top of their chalkboard menu for good reason. It’s hefty, with a chicken cutlet that achieves the perfect balance of crispy and juicy, and is well complemented by the sweet-tart balsamic vinegar, prosciutto, and soft mozzarella. There's no seating in the small, unflashy storefront, so plan on lugging your hero elsewhere to eat." - molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, bryan kim
"More specials were offered at Parisi Bakery as part of Netflix’s Little Italy promotion tied to The Irishman." - Caleb Pershan
