“ Fabulous grocery store in the strip. I come here often for gluten free pizza shells (in freezer section), pepperoni and cheeses! Something about their pepperoni is superior to what you'd find at the usual grocery stores, so it's worth the trip. I also get bottles of their Spanish olive oil from the vat, and their name brand tomato sauce. Don't snooze on penn Mac! ”

“ A great Italian specialties store in the Strip District. The selection is amazing! Try have a large area of pastas, a cheese counter with dozens of choices including hard to find cheese like scamorza (I use for lasagna). Oils, vinegars, bread, and more. Knowledgeable staff help you find that perfect cheese. Ask for a sample. Love Penn Mac. ”

“ What don't they have here? Basically feels like nothing. They have so much and there's so much variety. Great Italian imports also. Meat and cheese and fish galore. There is always a line and always a lot to try for next time. The place gets flooded with happy customers. ”
“ This is such a fun spot to explore Italian ingredients ranging from homemade pasta and cheeses to olives and olive oil. There's definitely an old world air about the place with winding isles and a bustling cheese bar. It definitely has the quintessential Strip District vibe. We love popping in here anytime we are in the area. The service is to the point and keeps things moving along. ”
“ This is my second visit at this location, a stable well known in the Strip District. It was nice to see that not much had changed in the store look; since my first visit Memorial Day weekend 2011.. fast forward to Memorial Day weekend 2022. For me; the returning was a happy; pleasent ; fun memory when my mom and I were in awe of the layout of the store. If your looking for a one stop; shop; for ethnic Italian and other items be sure to take a gander ..you won't be disappointed. From locally made honey; to yes; despite the pandemic and covid; there is a bulk section that was reasonably priced per pound. Love that feel for normalcy. One large section of the store is your deli; section for the bulk; spices; fruit; pasta a bit of everything. Bon Appétit...a sure delight for all young and older. ”
“ I have been here before on a visit but never wrote a review. Let's remedy that now. Lordy this place has the goods... I've been having a hard time trying to get Tagliatelle and it's been difficult. Well they had it and another in spinach too. The pastas are from different areas of Italy and some USA brands too. Oh they also make FRESH PASTA.. it's excellent get you some. They make there own bottled marinara, you can find Italian candies, cookies and the like. Lots of antipasti items. Lots of everything! We also picked up some proper Gardinara that's packed in oil as it should be! Oh Sweet Baby Jesus the cheese counter... they make fresh mozzarella on site it's delicious. Prices are moderate but they carry the best of the best items. They also have on the other side the deli area for all your charcuterie dreams. They have all sorts for items and I believe they also have frozen ravioli and more but check the website as you can order online. A lot of my family does that as they no longer live in the area. This place has been here forever! If you can't find what you need to make that specific Italian dish ask they staff is friendly and helpful. It's on The Strip and parking can be a bit difficult. As an out of towner I would suggest alternative ways to get to this area. It's absolutely worth the visit! ”
“ Huge selection of fresh cheeses, some meats, olives, etc. Charcuterie lover's paradise! Not for the lactose intolerant but I am and I will suffer just to eat the cheeses from here! Huge variety of pasta and all the gear as well. Ravioli press and all kinds of kitchen tools and gadgets. Very cool! ”
