When we heard about Lioni’s heroes being on Staten Island; my co-workers and I were excited to order.
The heroes do not stack up to the original in Brooklyn.
They state they have fresh Lioni’s Mozzarella; they do not. They have this weird sliced squared Mozzarella that was probably fresh over 2 weeks before they sold it. I’ve never seen old, sliced, rubbery, squared mozzarella be called fresh. The taste was disgusting.

The best part-the sandwich had just enough dressing to be not dry but not so much that it’s soggy. I can’t recommend the service and the food...

She ordered a 6 foot American hero, Eggplant wraps, a 4 foot Grilled Chicken hero, Potato Croquettes, Broccoli Rabe, Grilled Vegetables and rice balls. Everything was delicious. The heroes came cut up on platters already which was great. Very convenient and saved so much space The bread on the heroes tasted like it was just baked. It was nice and soft but it had a bite to it. The cold cuts tasted delicious and everything was fresh as could be. This was our first time ordering from Brooklyn Italian Heroes and I'm so glad we did! We will be coming back soon! Everyone at the party enjoyed the...
