Meats Supreme
8.0
Part old-school butcher, part Italian grocery, Meats Supreme quietly turns out hefty cold-cut heroes built from its own meat counter and bakery partners. Nearly three decades in the neighborhood and steady local praise make it a dependable stop when you want a classic Italian sandwich rather than a quick bodega build.
