Reviews Summary
DiBella's Italian Market is praised for its delicious, generously portioned subs on freshly baked bread, with many hailing it as the best they've ever had. Customers also appreciate the friendly and accommodating staff. However, some find the prices high for the quality, and a few miss the open kitchen setup where they could watch their sandwiches being made.
"DiBella’s is my absolute favorite sub shop in New York. They have the coziest atmosphere, the tastiest food at a good price, and some delicious sides. The people at this location are ALWAYS very friendly and I love coming in."

"Best subs anywhere. It beats Jersey Mikes, Firehouse Subs, Jimmy Johns, and everyone else! The rolls make the difference. This location is the best one. However, they put up barriers during Covid, closing off the view of the food and making of the subs. The wow atmosphere in seeing all the food being made and the deli is gone. They should realize this, bring back the "wow" environment, and impress customers. I don't believe the owner realizes what he lost by doing that. Open up view of all the food and deli... it would greatly enhance the dining experience. Seeing all the meats and available toppings made it easier to order, too. Joey Dibella... bring back the great showcase you used to have! Recommended."

"We had a huge, complicated order and the staff was very accommodating, friendly, helpful and speedy. Our subs were all made perfectly, and we're absolutely delicious. This is always a stop when my sister visits from out of state!"
