Violante's Deli on Franklin Avenue doubles as a small neighborhood grocery. Shoppers rave about the friendly staff who greet regulars by name and keep the shelves stocked with local favorites. The deli case offers fresh cold cuts, homemade sausage, and cheeses sliced to order alongside daily soup specials. Many praise the hefty sandwiches that come piled high with meat and crisp vegetables. Narrow aisles are filled with imported pasta, olive oils, and pantry staples, making it a convenient one-stop shop less than ten minutes from Forest Hill. They also sell sweet pastries from the attached bakery and prime butcher cuts for dinner. Stop in for a classic Italian combo or grab their famous chicken cutlets to go.
