Boca Pizza & Deli

This place is the hidden gem of East Boca. I have never had a better italian sandwich in my life. The owner Al is a fantastic cook and its amazing how such great tasting, authentic italian food comes out of this little place. He is truly a gifted cook and his attention to detail is amazing. The pizza is also delicious. Rice Balls, incredible. I visit here with my wife and three kids at least once a week. He and his employees treat the kids well and they love to see Al every week. Back to the sandwich — he heats up the italian bread and uses just the right amount to seasonings to give it the perfect taste. High quality meats and cheeses. You need to try Boca Pizza just off the beach on Palmetto and A1A.

Conveniently located just a couple blocks off of the main public beach access in Boca Raton, this little dive is a mouth watering welcome after being cooked in the sun a day and dehydrated from the adult beverages in your plastic cups. I had driven around for 20 minutes honestly dying to find anything to eat. Even fast food! I had a hard time though being none of the typical outrageously neon, goofy, and gaudy signs were hovering around every corner. Seems like the local business admin has something to do with that fortunately.
I ended up ordering more food than I could possibly eat, even for the two of us that were famished. I walked out having spent only $ 17 with a fresh roast beef hoagie, one with cappicola, a cheese slice, and a delicious slice of ciabatta. The old man that made the food was certainly not there to make any friends but that is not what I typically want when ordering at a deli. He did win me over slicing the meats wrapped in what looked like old rope fishing nets and delicately placing them on his fresh baked bread. Add a few herbs, fresh cheeses, homemade olive oil, stuff it in a brown paper bag, and tell me to get the hell out and I am happy as a lark.
This place is a MUST if in Boca. Park for free in the back and use a little Italian if you have any.
