Lambo's Deli & Grocery recently launched in Toronto, right by Dundas and Bellwoods, captivating the attention of many due to the stacked sandwiches. The inspiration behind Lambo's celebrates iconic delis and bodegas across the globe, rooted in the basic sandwich. To offer something for everyone, there are options for vegetarians, pescatarians, and meat-lovers alike.
The menu is dedicated to providing only the freshest ingredients at a high quality without overcomplicating a sandwich. All of the meats and cheeses are sliced on a daily basis by hand -- all of which have been locally sourced or directly imported from Italy. The fresh vegetables follow the same route, including the expansive made in-house roasted red peppers, black olive tapenade, pickled onions, Calabrian chili, and more. To ensure the safety of staff and customers, procedures have been enforced. This includes frequent cleaning, recently launched local delivery service, mask wearing, and social distancing.
