All'Antico Vinaio

Established by the Mazzanti family in Florence back in 1991, this counter-service spot keeps pace with Manhattan hunger through quick assembly and high-spirited staff who sometimes sing Italian songs while they work. It is geared toward a fast to-go lunch, turning out filling options like the Broadway sandwich—which layers pistachio pesto, zucchini, and sun-dried tomatoes—alongside the Schiacciata del Boss. Diners can also opt for a spritz and sandwich combo, adding a casual Italian drink to the midday rush.
