About the Menu

Defonte's Sandwich Shop offers a straightforward, no-frills menu that focuses on hearty, satisfying sandwiches and classic Italian-American comfort foods. The menu is built around generous, well-stacked sandwiches like the Signature Hot Roast Beef and the Nicky Special, alongside familiar favorites such as meatballs, chicken parm, and fried calamari.

Days often start here with simple breakfast sandwiches and coffee sodas, while lunch and dinner see the appeal of rich, filling dishes meant to satisfy hungry appetites. The counter meats, cold cuts, and layered hot heroes suit the casual, walk-in atmosphere perfectly, making it a spot where the food feels unfussy yet thoughtfully prepared.

Salads and lighter options are available, but the emphasis remains on substantial sandwiches featuring fresh mozzarella, fried eggplant, savory cured meats, and flavorful sauces. These are meals that invite lingering conversations or quick, reliable bites mid-day. At its core, Defonte's serves a straightforward, comforting lineup that resonates with those who appreciate generous portions and classic tastes in a familiar Brooklyn setting.
