I had never been here but heard great things and wanted to visit. On the way to Disney for my boyfriend's birthday, we called ahead to order some breakfast sandwiches. The staff were very nice and I was told pickup would be in ten minutes - very quick. When I arrived I almost wish I hadn't ordered ahead! The shop is so cute and interesting. I need to come back to explore and check everything out. 10/10 breakfast sandwiches
Stassio's is ELITE, coming from NY i can appreciate a good deli experience, and while Publix is a FL go to for a deli sub and is convenient due to the accessibility. Stassio's is worth is worth the drive I have to make to enjoy their subs and market. I have had multiple sandwiches but the chicken parm vodka, has had me in a chokehold for about 4 months. It is easy for quality to hide amongst complex recipes but simple straight forward dishes have to have excellent ingredients because there are fewer components. The bread is soft, the chicken cutlets are juicy, the cheese is strong and the sauce is so rich and flavorful coming together like the perfect Italian sandwich Voltron. The staff is funny, welcoming and informative. The restaurant is clean, warm and inviting. Chef kisses through and through. It is also a market so you can get premium Italian ingredients, pastas, snacks and sodas On 2 occasions i have brought New England transplants to Stassio's when they felt homesick for a good Mom & Pops deli experience.
In the words of the Italian drink I ordered, "Amore mio, assaggia questa" Go to Stasio's!!! Wow! It was incredible. We tried the pizza of the day, the American sandwich, the Stasio, and the Italian. We tried the cucumber and tomato salad, and the lemon pastry. Everything was absolutely delicious! Wow! We all loved it so much. The best sandwich I've ever had. The service was amazing! Everyone was so friendly! I just love the busy vibe of this place, you know it's so good when it's packed on a weekday at lunch! I'm so glad we made this stop here!
Food: I tried the meatball sub and the chicken parm sub and both were SUPERB, however, the meatball sub was the best I've ever had! Everything is so well seasoned, the mozzarella they use is SO tasty and salty, the sub is big for a good price, the bread is even fresh!!! It truly was amazing and authentic. I loved it. Can't wait to try more! Ambiance: fast casual with a deli and a small Italian market... you order at the deli and then bring a ticket to the cashier to checkout. There is a counter with some stools by the window that you can enjoy your food at! No tables. This is a quick in and out place. Service: The service wowed me because when you come in as a new comer they explain everything to you with warmth super nice friendly family vibes
Let's just say I will be back to try lunch or a dinner sandwich. The BEC was 7.5/10 the price was $11.29 w/drink (minute made Lemonade). I thought the sandwich was going to be small but they layered it well. The guy I ordered with, told us the eggs was only made fried hard and the roll was the only choice that comes with that breakfast sandwich, the roll was good. Overall when I walked in I didn't know where to order I had to ask the people at the cash register. They need a little organization in the store, for the big crowds. All in all the breakfast Sandwich (Bacon,egg, and cheese)was better than most in Florida.
I stopped by Stasio's and tried their bacon and egg sandwich with salt, pepper, and ketchup--no cheese. Most spots automatically add cheese, but I appreciated that they stuck to my order without any fuss. The sandwich was perfect! The bun wasn't your typical bread--it was rich, flavorful, and elevated the whole experience. The place was packed, which shows how popular it is, but they could definitely work on better operations to manage the crowd. Despite that, this is hands down the best breakfast sandwich I've had in Orlando. A solid 10/10! I highly recommend it, and I'm looking forward to trying more from their menu--especially the treats, which looked amazing.
This spot was on the Top Places to Eat in Orlando, so of course, I had to try it! I convinced my coworkers to join me for lunch, and there were six of us in total. As we entered, we were promptly greeted by a friendly staff member who asked if it was our first time and guided us through the ordering process. The establishment is small with limited seating, so it's a good idea to have a plan in case you can't find a seat. Once our food was ready, the staff brought it over to us, and we managed to grab spots at the counter. I ordered the Pan (Meatball Sub)--the meatballs were bursting with flavor, and the marinara sauce and melted cheese made for the perfect combination. My coworkers were equally pleased with their orders, and everyone left satisfied. While seating could be an issue for some, it wasn't a big deal for me. If you're in the area, definitely check this place out for a great sub!
My brother had been raving about Stasio's for the longest time, so one weekend, we finally went together as a family. It was brunch time, so the place was packed, but they're clearly prepared for the rush. Despite how busy it was, our food still came out fast and fresh--service was absolutely top-notch. Even though they offer both indoor and outdoor seating, nearly every spot was taken (a sure sign of how amazing this place is). Thankfully, we managed to find a few seats together. The vibe was fantastic--open and bright with tons of natural light, and the happy buzz of people enjoying their meals. I ordered The Flag sandwich and added prosciutto. Oh. My. God. It was AMAZING. Everything--from the bread to the fillings--was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and balanced. I can confidently say it's now my favorite Caprese sandwich in town. Of course, I had to try their Italian coffee. I went with an iced latte, and it was perfection. You can tell this is high-quality coffee from the first sip. I also loved how they keep it traditional: no syrups or sauces, just coffee and milk (though they do offer nondairy milk upon request). You can also sweeten it yourself if needed. Stasio's is also part market, so there's plenty to explore, from imported Italian products to freshly made sides like salads and marinated olives. Before leaving, I couldn't resist trying one of their desserts, so I got a chocolate cannoli. Like everything else I tried, it was absolutely delicious--the perfect finish to an incredible meal. You literally can't go wrong at Stasio's. Every single thing I tried was outstanding. The combination of high-quality food, generous portions, friendly service, and welcoming atmosphere makes this spot a must-visit. No wonder they're always packed! I can't wait to return and try more of their menu.
I finally made it to Stasio's, and now I was I lived closer! We stopped in before heading over to Harry P. Lou Gardens for Dazzling Nights. When we walked in, we must have looked lost and confused. A member of the staff came from behind the counter to say hello and ask if we had ever been there before, we of course said now. They explained to us the process of ordering and paying, and told us about some of the meats and that they make their bread in house daily. I asked a couple questions about different sandwiches and they were quickly answered, which helped me narrow down what I wanted. I went for the steak sandwhich, which is served hot. I also ordered a side of what I would call a cous cous salad. I browesed the shop for a moment, picked out a soda, and headed to the coutner to pay. About 5 minutes later our food was ready. It was love at first bite. Wow that steak sandwhich was so good. The meat was full of flavors, the toppings dripping with goodness, and the bread so soft. There was a nice heat that would build, this was from the hot peppers on the sandwich. I devoured the sandwich in now time. The cous cous salad was very enjoyable, it had such a nice fresh flavor. The cranberries add a nice sweet finish to it. We loved the food, the staff, and the vibe here. When we are in the area, we will stop back in. Oh, it is pretty cool that they serve breakfast sandwiches all day too!
Stasio's is on Top for a reason. They have perfected their craft and take pride in what they do. The people of Orlando have spoken, and love them for it. Thank you Stasio's! If you have not been yet, plan a visit, you won't regret it.
