The guy behind the counter is a legend!
Legendary family run sandwich shop.
Few UK tourists make the trip to Red Hook to visit this gem. Well done lads.
Came here in 2014, had the roast beef, mozzarella & eggplant, and the steak pizzaiola. There sandwiches are well worth the high score.
All those sandwiches are right up my street. No frills and great ingredients, what’s not to like. Fab review gents
You don’t need more than this. Perfection.
Same, I just wish they were actually up my street haha
Now for Matt to find similar in the UK ;-)
I like the guy behind the counter!
So passionate about his food!
So entertaining
God bless
He forgets the poop though
Defonte's World Class, World Wide, Barese Style!!
On the House, that's amazing.
we are so used to that style of italian bread here... crunchy, holds up, soft as a pillow on the inside... but can hold sauce...
Man, you must be British royalty. I hope you enjoy. That looks really good. You must be the Golden boy. Enjoy your stay in New York City my brother. I'll see you again on the tube !!!!!!
Welcome to the family ❤
Hey when I get over to England I want you to show me all those fish and chip shops you go to !!!!!!
There’s too many Michael!😂 some crackers around though!
What a gezzer he was, on the house top man! Brilliant review this one
Bro being a Welsh man from Wrexham,where you need to come to Chip o Dee ain't number 1. That goes to bellvue grill and fish. l ived in New York for 4 years. Best time of my life other than being a dad. And yes I've visited this beautiful establishment.
If you were from Brooklyn, you called it Nick's. My family used to get 5 or 6 sandwiches and cut them all up to share. Great memories.
How good was that service wow brilliant
Proper sandwiches and good quality. 9 for me.
The passion of Matt about food he is John Fury of food on CZcams the channel is brilliant well done Matt and Callum.
I love your vlogs and reviews....that sandwich shop looked mental ...you could almost taste the food. Keep up the awesome work....
Been absolutely loving this US trip, keep it up lads 🙌

Killing it guys! just getting better and better! cant wait to see where you going next.

The fact you took a second look after the first bite of the goldenboy said it all! Would love to do something like this and tour USA for it's food. Clicking the subscribe button now!
OMG those sandwiches look amazing
Awesome ! 🎉 what a thoughtful food review! ❤
I’m so jealous of you Matt lol, I wish we had stuff like this far more in the UK, they are over here but much more far and few between, in the US seems like there’s a special foodie place around every corner!
Thanks bro really love your vids and the way u chop it up with the workers and just everyone, always give restaurants credit where it’s due, if I could suggest a place in nyc if your still there I’d say lucali but if not all love ❤️
he's already been there look it up he gave it a 10 i believe
Another amazing video bro , them sandwiches look great and you bring out what there all about years of doing the same thing everyday which makes a place great 👍 we'll done lad hat off to you both amazing
That area is known as Red Hook, Years ago it was referred to as South Brooklyn. The Deli catered to the rough and tumble Longshoremen. There is a movie titled "Last exit to Brooklyn" It's about this neighborhood in the 1950's. Viewer discretion is advised.
Everything looks so taste!
end of the year i am going to brooklyn can not wait to try this
That place was my heaven, wow.
Good work lads. Keep it up
That's on my list for my next NYC !
What a guy at the start 🤙🏻🤣
I love Defonte's. Worked in Red Hook for 20 years and went there countless times.
Unreal 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you 👍👍
Great video as always. Bring a cameraman and a good personality and you're golden lol
I was that involved in this I felt I was there haha
Top wrk Matt + Callum 👊🏼👊🏼
The potatoes and eggs sub there is best I’ve ever had. Used to live right on that block.
Had a chopped cheese on hero from a New York deli a few weeks back. Best sandwich I've ever tasted. Wish we had these delis in the UK.
UK is so behind with everything
Loved this place ate it almost everyday when I visited NYC I stayed in red hook like 2 blocks away
This all looked bangers but the shrimp would have right up my passage brother looks a awesome trip enjoy 😎❤️👍
It was a real hard hitter for sure 👌
It's always the bread!!!
As mentioned by several others on this channel, these reports just keep getting better and better. This has become a daily must view show for me. Thanks and keep on rocking
Can’t thank you enough for the positive words. We really appreciate you being here ❤️
Amazing sandwiches!
Smashing it 👌👌
Now I’m really hungry 😂
Sorry about that 😂
Best noti to appear on my phone oi oi
oh-fah im drooling up here in vermont!
These are the old school NYC vibes. None of this waiting in line for Instagram food (and admittedly some of that food is absolute fire, most of it absolute bollocks as yall would say).
If your local deli doesn't know your name after you've come a few times, find a new deli.
As good as the ingredients are, if the bread isn't the star (almost always needs to be semolina bread w/ sesame), also... find a new deli.
If everything isn't fresh (same day) and scratch made, from fresh mozarella to all the braised meats... find a new deli.
My personal favorites: Defonte's in Brooklyn, Faicco's in Manhattan, Fiore's in Hoboken (just across the Hudson in Jersey, and my personal favorite)
No place in America that does Sandwiches like NYC
You mean like Defonte’s
you need to check out Clemente's in Hackensack NJ... talk about salt of the earth.. it is basically hidden on a side street... it's nuts... they bake their own bread also....
Awesome place
Looks the job, cheers
Matt your videos are getting just better and better!
This place looks awesome!
Credit to you Jess and the team!
Thank you for the videos bro!
BIG UP. Thank you… I appreciate you being here
Can't wait to go to Defonte's one day.... MY BOY ANTHONY GOT HIS CAMEO LETS GO
Amazing, there is a sandwich shop in Astoria called Sals the king of sandwiches it’s in Astoria queens.
All the cops and fighter fighters and corrections officers eats there and the locals.
Come on Britain, who’s the best sandwich shops.. I would be there daily if there was something like that in the midlands ❤
There’s definitely a couple!
@@FoodReviewClubUKbro please name a couple
There's plenty of sandwich places all over New York City it's the king of sandwiches throughout the world too bad they're closed otherwise I would have recommend Carnegie deli their sandwiches are ridiculous there's also Junior's deli in Brooklyn which is really known for roast beef 🍖 I think also they use a roast beef similar to a London broil so if you're British you might want to check it out also they have a very dark gravy
You missed the park that’s two blocks away over your left shoulder!!…….my fave is the pepper and egg!!
Looks fantastic 🎉⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍👍👍🍔
Thank you 😋 Appreciate you being here…
First class sandwiches 👌👌👌
They know what they are doing
I'm all about an Italian sub!!
The king!!! 👑
My City New York!
Oh man I’m so hungry now
I love being Italian
wow 9.8! best score so far?
9.8 WOAAHHH
Jesus, I want all those damn sandwiches.
Everyone loves a leveller …. Oi oi 💯
😂😂😂
My mouth waters .
People dont realize that espresso has way less caffeine than a medium roasted coffee
You do know when you said that you from Cambridge , that the guy tought you ment Cambridge in eastern Massachusetts, 🤣
Can't be as good as a subway surely
😂😂😂
Nice but expensive to travel to America brv cost me 80 pound diesel to get to Manchester and back for a Miami burger 🤣💪 bring it to England 👏👍👌
😂😂😂😂
i really need to stop watching these while hungry fml
G+R deli bro
it's good, no defontes
Try general ocky
Been to Both Ocky is good, hes got lots of flavors and saucez, Dafontes is Old School stuff, higher quality
Lads , now we're talkin. Nice 👍
Do they bake their own bread?
I’m not sure tbh… wouldn’t surprise me.
@@FoodReviewClubUK To be honest, and knowing what I do about East Coast cities, it wouldn't surprise me if they get their bread from a traditional Italian American bakery within 10 blocks, who themselves likely have storied history. A lot of these establishments have formed bonds and familial ties generation after generation, and work together to support one another. These culturally rich pockets within a lot of the older (older in regards to our existence and evolution as a nation--we know y'all got us beat on ACTUAL history) East Coast cities of the U.S. operate as a network of hard working families and they've helped form the backbone of a lot of our communities for 100s of years. Thank you for placing an emphasis on that in your videos--it's wildly important to our narrative, as I am certain it is in countless other places across the world. Be well.
Lived in the city all my life lived in Brooklyn never been to redhook never even heard of defontes
From Manhattan, About 5 minutes from Brooklyn Battery Tunnel..worth a try, its excellent
you have great manners..you are well brought up frc
We try 🙏
@@FoodReviewClubUK and you succeeded
how much was the 3 sandwiches bruv
I don’t know…. 😅 They gave them to us
@@FoodReviewClubUK can tell your from London bruv lol I get the same thing when I do a video keep it up 👌🤣👌🏴
Free food that’s a 10 lol
NO SALT, PROSCIUTTO SALTY ENOUGH!
When you get back. Whiteheads fish and chips I'm hornsea (near hull), has just won chippy of the year for 2023. Just saying.... get yourself back up here.
Are you the same guy who does watch reviews? 🤔
Blue sky for a chopped cheese would be my stop in Brooklyn for an iconic working mans sandwich. Fried shrimp with marinara doesnt sound appetising to me but each to their own.
Sorry its harlem not Brooklyn, my bad.
Rad.
I'll bet that septic is a "barrel of fun " in the boozer. Ear plugs, any one ?
Fuckin top draw review I doff my hat to you good sir
Thank you sir. Cheers 🍻
He makes salt bae look amateur, any body else agree?
Why can't you sit inside and be more comfortable to do your review looks great
There wasn’t any seats inside 👌
Fat flavour 👌👌👌👌
YOU TRIED THE REST, NOW TRY THE BEST🎉 OLD SCHOOL TRADITIONAL FAMILY FOOD, THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT 🥖 FRESH EVERY TIME WAY TO KICK IT UP A NOTCH BAM BAM BAM CHEERS 🍀
When you see the UK alternatives you got to think WHY can they get away selling there crappy food to us every day. If they can do it in the US surely we can do it in this day and age. Silly me talk sense they only sell for Maximum Profit smaller portions and lesser quality is the UK in a nutshell.
Ain't no black in the union Jack
You should pay for all your meals. You can't give an unbiased review if you haven't paid for it.
