Mandola's Deli is a cozy gem in Houston that brings authentic Italian flavors to life! 🍝 I indulged in their amazing spaghetti marinara topped with steamed veggies - one plate could easily feed two. The Deluxe po' boy was perfectly crafted, and the homemade cheese sticks were a highlight.
The atmosphere feels historic yet trendy, making it a great hangout for families and university students alike. The service was fast, and the chef personally guided us through the menu, which was a lovely touch!
Don't skip the cannolis - they're the best I’ve ever had! Can’t wait to return! 😊
