Di Palo's

REVIEW

April 19, 2009


CUISINE: Italian
NEIGHBORHOOD: Little Italy

 

200 Grand St at Mott

(p) 212-226-1033

 

"We come all the way from New Jersey to get cheese here," says the smiling mom next to us, after ordering a pound of "the sharpest provolone."  You should never come to Di Palo's in a hurry, because the knowledgeable and friendly staff spend a lot of time with each customer.  Whether you are sampling cheeses or meats, or curious about the cave-aged gruyere, you're in store for a patient and lengthy explanation while munching on freshly sliced products.  The special relationship between staff and customers is one of the many reasons Di Palo's is always crowded with loyal patriots. Grab a number, and while you wait for your turn, check out the fresh pastas, exclusively imported olive oils, and Illy coffee for $9 per tin. (Most places cost double)...  

 

A variety of prepared foods including marinated vegetables, enormous baked meat balls, and other antipasti necessities.  Next store is the Di Palo wine shop where you can pair your future meal with unique Italian wines, or stop by for regular free wine tastings.  It is no surprise that Di Palo's is the only store in Little Italy that is expanding, while other, century-old specialty shops have been forced to close by redundant Chinese delis.
