About REX ITALIAN FOODS


Another classic example of how far your Italian grandmothers recipes can go when establishing a restaurant such as Chef Pinello has achieved. Classic and traditional culinary marvels allow for this incredible menu to exist. Choose from a variety of Italian Deli Meats for a made from scratch Sandwich or instead go with the Sicilian Schiacciata to fill that hunger. We love the traditional Counter-serve diner and this place has mastered it from start to finish. Located inside a food market, it's easy to park and make your way to, any day of the week. Established in 1993, the spot was opened by two Italian brothers whom came over to the USA on a ship named, "Rex", hence the name of the store. We briefly mentioned a few items, but some other insane choices here include their Manicotti, Deli Salads and truly so many amazing and truly authentic Sicilian items that will knock your socks off. If you're familiar with the culture, then you'll feel right at home and if not then you must try it out and fall in love. Rex Italian Foods is a place that is always high on our must-eat list for all of our readers, find out why for yourselves.
