Easily the best steak sandwich in Woodbridge. If you come for lunch during the week expect a long wait, and almost no parking. But it’s worth it!!!

I came here with my husband for a quick bite to take home ready to eat. I tried the veal sandwich and my husband had the steak sandwich. Honestly, I didn’t enjoy the veal that much. I found the veal should of been tenderized more as I found it a bit tough. It really could of used some salt and more sauce. I have had many veal sandwiches from many different places and I thought this would top all of my previous ones, but I was disappointed. It was okay.
My husband had the steak sandwich, which he really liked. Lots of meat on it. You could taste the seasoning on it, it was hot and fresh. He said he wouldn’t get the cheese added on but he would add the onion and peppers to it next time.
If I came here again I would probably try the porchetta, it looked great. Try it out!

We called in our order on our way to this place. It still took a long time for us to get our order. They do appear to be crazy busy at lunch so come early and try to order online first. There’s a special online order pick-​up line.
My steak sandwich with hot peppers was good, but not spectacular. First of all, they charge you fifty cents for every topping — even a tomato slice. That’s ridiculous. Secondly, they cook they steak to well done. Well done steak is a waste of steak, in my opinion. Third, they don’t trim the steak well so there’s a lot of fat and gristle. This does make the sandwich a bit hard to eat because the hard gristle doesn’t bite cleanly so you end up yanking large pieces of steak out of your sandwich when you try to take a bite.
Not sure I would come back here of my own initiative, but if my cohorts wanted to come here, I’d probably try the grilled chicken sandwich or something else.

You’ve never had a steak sandwich until you try this one!
I crave this steak sandwich and anytime I get the chance in Vaughan, I scoop one.
You wont regret it.

The porchetta is probably the best choice here, the steak sandwich is much better if you order it at cataldi. I take issue with the veal, which they call it a veal parmiggiano, how can you call it that if it doesn’t come with cheese? I called them out on that, the lady got all sensitive and defensive, lol, wow, grow up. Much better veal you could get at California sandwiches, just calling a spade a spade.

The veal sandwiches are just amazing! Great value, great service and great lunch! Quite amusing to see how many people line up during lunch time.

This place needs more than 5 stars to accurately rate the food and service!
By far the best Lamb Spadinni in the City!
Roasted red peppers, Bakery, Cold Cuts… baked treats they’ve got it all. Not a huge fan of their porchetta but it’s fresh.
It’s a long drive from Scarborough but well worth it

Best steak sandwich! The porchetta is also fantastic. Wish prices were back to $ 5.50 like afew years back, but whatever!

Best sandwiches in Woodbridge fresh, healthy and cheap and they are always busy for a reason but you can order online and pick up that’s the faster way I had this food do many time yet every time it taste amazing

The steak sandwich was AMAZING! Very hard to find a great steak sandwich for such a great price, around $ 7.00. However, be prepared for a lineup, this place gets packed during the lunch hour. Well worth the wait.

This place is more grocery store than café, but the sandwiches are delicious. I came for the porchetta sandwich, but I think maybe it would have been a better choice to get a whole porchetta for a party than just 1 sandwich. Just the one sandwich seemed not as fresh, and not as flavourful without a bunch of added toppings. I liked it, I didn’t LOVE it.

I’ve never eaten at their food counter, or ordered a sandwich to go, this review is based strictly on their meat selections. A tad more expensive than other stores, the quality is good and the frozen food section quite large.
I’ve never been disappointed with anything I’ve purchased here, it’s just that if you watch flyers, you can get the same quality meats for a cheaper price.
Staff have always been über friendly and the store is laid out well.

The porchetta sandwich is huge (more than enough for 1 person), with plenty of meat. The sandwich itself is priced well, but the toppings do seem too expensive (50c each for each topping, including «basic» things like onions).
Its quite tasty, although I have to say that I prefer Porchetta & Co in downtown (although that is quite a bit more pricey, especially when you factor in its smaller size). One of the big differences between the two is that this place doesn’t include the skin, which is one of the best parts.
I’ll come here again though if I’m in the area. Maybe next time I’ll just get a chunk of porchetta, instead of the sandwich.

This is a meat lovers paradise!
Try the steak sandwich, if you love beef, you will not be sorry. The bae got a giant sandwich with hot peppers, mushrooms, and cheese and a side of red sauce to dip, it was delicious. The meat was very juicy and flavourful, on a super soft, freshly baked ciabatta bun. I ordered the Italian garden salad with grilled chicken on the side and it was very fresh and tasty! I look forward to trying the porchetta when we return ;)
They have a butchery section where you can purchase the same meats they grill for the sandwiches along with fresh grilled veggies. Great selection of various cured meats and cheeses. Would be a perfect place to stop for unique Italian groceries for a house party or for a hostess gift.
Loved the sections of prepared foods, condiments, olives, and dried pastas around the store. Picked up a few unique stocking stuffers for some family, including Nutella stuffed Italian wafer cookies, a delicious looking hot sauce cream, and a cute pack of sesame honey cookies. YUM!
We finished our lunch at Vicentina with an espresso, cappuccino, chocolate lobster tail pastry, and vanilla cannoli. Very delicious and satisfying way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

A lot of reviews here so I’ll keep it short and sweet.
1. Porchetta is fantastic, buy a chunk and bring it home for dinner.
2. Steak sandwich is better than the porchetta sandwich, it’s sliced steak charbroiled just right with smokiness. Excellent.
3. Sandwich toppings are pricey. You’ll want them all but will be forced to pick and choose unless you don’t mind a top dollar sandwich.
4. Has a dining area. Perfect.
5. Frozen artisan cakes in the fridge are tastey!
6. It can get busy here so come a bit earlier than you think you need to.

Best porchetta I ever ate, I’m from New York and usually drive to Philadelphia for some good porchetta this place is in my must have before you leave this earth.

Love the fact that you can do your meat groceries for the week and then end your shopping by having a fresh porchetta sandwich. Very simple menu — sandwiches, salad and drinks that’s it that’s all!
If your looking for a quick meal fix and are on lunch in the Vaughan area this is great. Place gets rammed from 12 to 2.
Go check it out!

Nice little butcher /​grocery /​sandwich joint. They always have this beautiful porchetta on display and you can order one of different sizes which is great for parties.
I went to the sandwich corner and got a porchetta sandwich. Fresh bun, tender pork and roasted veggies. Yum.
The butcher section had limited meat on display, so you need to order from the guy and it’s pretty pricey meat.

Good Porchetta Sandwiches
Depending on which Cafeteria Lady is on-​hand. It can be pretty unbeatable.
That’s if you happen to be served by staff that seasons the Meat well. {3.5’d}
It’s a hotspot Lunch joint for nearby working-​class now, which speaks volumes.
