My family has been coming to Arthur Avenue in The Bronx for over 70 years and this is the real Little Italy in New York City. This eating tour of Arthur Ave. takes you inside many of the shops, behind the scenes of a 116-year-old bakery and we sample some of the best pizza in New York. Our tour guides are my sister Lori and her incredibly fun, Italian speaking husband Joe. Learn to eat like an Italian with some amazing bread, incredible cheese, coffee and other Italian delights.
If you've never heard of Arthur Avenue, you are in for a treat. Get off the tourist beaten path and make your way to The Bronx. We filmed this back in June of 2019 long before the current situation so enjoy this beautiful tour of an amazing slice of New York City.

Seeing Arthur Ave again is making me cry. I grew up in The Bronx in the 50's and 60's. We came there a lot especially before Easter Christmas and New Year
The pork store the cheese store the market. In the market if you bought escarole lettuce etc they wrapped it in newspaper. My cousin was there recently.
Unfortunately the cheese store doesn't sell ricotta salad anymore. Back in the day my dad would buy the whole wheel. The Italian man would always tell my mom when she bought the fresh ricotta for lasagna that it only lasted two days and then it would go bad. The pizza was amazing. Brings back great memories
Thanks so much for the great stories. I went there all through the 70's and 80's with my grandfather and it was definitely a lot different back then than it is now. But I absolutely LOVED spending the day with Joe and Lori walking through memories. Thanks so much for watching and for sharing your story!!
Make the 6 block walk from Southern all the time, next time make sure you hit Mike’s deli and meet David Greco the owner (Mike’s son) who has been on Food network many times and once beat Bobby Flay. Artuso bakery for some pastries
My mom aunt did the same thing from 2355 Southern blvd over 30 years ago. Now I walk over from 178th and Bryant.
I really enjoyed this video and yes Madona's olive bread and their cranberry bread are just delicious. 😋
Those pizzas look exceptional!
I know this was a couple of years ago. It brings back some great family memories! When we went shopping there we would ALWAYS buy multiple loafs of bread because we usually ate at least two before we got home. Lol. All the cheese, fresh fruits and veggies. PS, we also had a roll of paper towel in the car. 😋
GOT to have those paper towels in the car. :) Thanks so much for the kind words, yes Arthur Ave is a special place. I really need to get back up there!
Love you guys , fantastic real food lovers just wish i had seen this before visiting in 2019 . , we fell in love with New York Can not wait to visit again . Cheers from the UK.
We visited from Virginia last weekend. We took a food tour. Awesome
Omg tomorrow I am going to the Bronx!,
Thanks for the video. It brings memories from our time living in the Bronx,just ten minutes drive. Now we are in Orange County and we stop by every time we get a chance when we are down there.🍷🍷🍷
My god that is absolutely brilliant, the original ovens from over a hundred years ago and they are still used and working today
Right? It was a true joy to be taken back there.
Wow what an enjoyable video to watch, I can hear the joy in your voices and see it on your faces how much you were enjoying touring Arthur avenue and older ones are full of food places, although I was born in the Bronx and then grew up in Queens, my parents always used to stop in this neighborhood and pick up foods that we couldn't get in flushing, the good part is I remember great pizza in some neighborhoods even in flushing Queens had great pizza on every corner near the subway I'm before everything was gourmet it was delicious and affordable... Once again great video I personally want to walk around on a beautiful 72° degree day like you guys did❤😊
Thank you so much for the kind words. It was a perfect day and having Joe and Lori lead us around was awesome. What a lovely place that has been with us since our childhood.
I have such fond memories of that street back in the mid- to late-1990s! Arthur Avenue is a candy store for adults.
Oh man I remember being a really young kid walking with my grandfather and seeing the goats and chickens strung up in the windows. Used to FREAK ME OUT. One thing I'm glad they don't do anymore. :)
@@WheresWalterTravel Yes. BTW, I think that you bear a slight resemblance to Anthony Bourdain. As anyone ever said that to you?
@@urbanviii5103 Not Anthony. Most people tell me I look like George Lucas, especially when I'm wearing my flannel. :)
great video. Please keep making them. I'm stuck in a westcoast food wasteland.
You're very kind, thanks so much for watching!
Big ass slices of pizza!!!
My wife and I arrive in New York this Saturday. It’s our first time. I already had Arthur Avenue on the list of things we’d love to see because we like to go local. Thank you so much for filling in some spots to check out while we are there.
Now… If we could only get Joe to take us shopping! 😇
Right?!? Joe could make a killing being a local tour guide... But he's a former Broadway dancer who has a dance studio in Westchester so he's a bit busy these days.... have an amazing visit!
This is where I grew up at love it
FUNNY THING THO. 😁 MY FRIENDS AND I WOULD END UP AT THE CASTLE ON FORHAM RD
That was great family fun felt like I was there thanks see you next time 🇧🇬 hey when are you kats coming to wooster st 😁
Sundays after Mass,used to run down to Terranova Bakery from Iona College in New Rochele. One of my room mates was itgaiian, he did the ordering,i the driving, local pub the "Church Key" would use our bread making sandwiches for us.
I GREW UP IN THE AREA, AUTHER AVE IS ALL RESTURANTS NOW HAS BEEN FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS
wOW! What an excelent tour! Fantastic!
Thank you so much! It WAS a fun tour. I need to get back there again, I love visiting Arthur Ave! :)
@@WheresWalterTravel It was a great moment in family! Next time in NY I'll visit the Arthur Ave :)
I was raised and lived on Arthur Ave. Miss in it and loved it.
Attended Fordham 1973-78, what fantastic memories.
You missed very famous Mike's in the market! One of the best. Omg! Full Moon..da best pizza! The guy with the blue plaid shirt is a doll!
When I can finally get back, I'll visit Famous Mike's! Thanks for the tip!
@@WheresWalterTravel Mike’s father and uncle were the original butchers in the market then Mike started the deli and his son David Greco is a pretty well known chef who beat Bobby Flay on Bobby’s old show Throwdown! He has been on numerous Food network shows
@@jasonjtd79dunne88 Mike's is Bronx Roalty!
Very nice, thank you!💖
Hopefully this one won't also dissappear like the one on Manhattan did, its sad that they keep rising rents, and small business owners can't keep up.
Great video Italians Italians know the joy of living
Thanks so much!
Can't wait till the summer for my Arthur Avenue fix! And the mozzarella!
That’s the only place where I buy mozzarella cheese. I also buy prosciutto and sausages all the time. It’s delicious!!!
So amazing!
I travel from Maine for this place! Well worth it
Hey Walter this randomly popped up and enjoyed it very much. I grew up about 7 miles from this area in Co-Op City. Not sure if you know of it since you grew up in the Hudson Valley. Co-Op City is a big community in the north east Bronx. Even though I now live in Los Angeles, I go back at least twice a year to see family.
Almost a year ago we bought a cake (Egidio Pastry Shop) from this area for my mom's 80th birthday. Love Arthur Avenue and it looks like I need to try some of those places you went to. I'm not the biggest Full Moon fan, but that eggplant slice looks yummy! My girlfriend grew up in LA and I took her to Aurthur Ave in 2021. She really enjoyed it! Btw your brother in law looks like he is a blast to hang out with ...ha ha!
Where in the Hudson Valley did you grow up? My dad used to take me to Poughkeepsie when I was a little boy to visit his best friend and his wife. I loved it up there! It was so quiet compared to The Bronx.
Hey I'm glad this showed up in your feed. I love Arthur Ave so much, I need to get back up to NYC and head out for another visit. Yes Joe is a blast, he's a former Broadway performer and now has a Dance Studio in Mamaroneck. I swear we could start a travel show if we could ever get together long enough. :)
I grew up where your Dad used to take you. :) In Poughkeepsie and went to school in Hyde Park. LOVE the Hudson Valley.
@@WheresWalterTravel Spent a lot of time in Mamaroneck in the late 90s. My uncle had a house there.
Great show!
great video!
Walter, paisan here, great video
across from Teitles on the opposite corner used to be a chicken market and in August it smell like hell? And in that block was a movie theater were the Italian American library center is today. I was born on 187th and Belmont quarter of a block in from Mount Carmel Church mom and dad were married in that church all my uncles aunts were married in that church in the early 50s 👍🏻✨❤️
I've made olive bread before and didn't know it.
The meat shop with all of the sausages, that must be the only shop outside of Italy, that is like that
I do miss Arthur Ave living in the south. But that was the best time I've ever had walking through that area thanks to Joe and Lori.
You should show where the person scoops around the dead fly stuck in the Gelato. Just like in Naples when I lived there as a kid
I love Arthur Ave I miss it. We live in Las Vegas now. There is only one Arthur Ave.
No Bakeries in Vegas.
When I die and if I get into Heaven and Saint Peter offers the option of an everlasting scenario, I' ll ask to be on Arthur Avenue on a warmish spring/summer day. But instead of water will order Manhatten Special sodas to drink down the margaretta pizza, good choice.
when man says have a bite .. you have a bite..11:13
Have you been to Arthur Avenue? What's your favorite spot? In addition to speaking Italian and having a lot of fun on camera, Joe owns a dance studio in Westchester County NY. Check out dancecavise.com to learn more.
2 nice Italian ladies. Ooh gotz
joe is made man from colombo family 🙂
Orazio at Casa Della mozzarella...makes the best mozzarella on the planet
Tripe the stomach of the cow when you eat it you chew it like a cow for a long time, tripepa in Italian. It's white with honeycomb shapes in it 😊
How is it that I love extra virgin OO, but I hate regular and everything else olives! I can’t get on board. Why do I like the extra virgin? I swear that I love Italian food and it is life lol. But, out olives in it and I am grossed out.
Omg..a real neapolitan pizzamaker is having a hearth attack on seeing this
You won't get this in Arizona.
Nice video But Full Moon Pizza not the same anymore
Are there any people in Arthur’s Avenue that can speak Italian or no one speaks Italian in Arthur’s Avenue anymore?
It's all Albanian, the Italians left fifty years ago.
@@debradowling800 Albanians speak Italian instead of most Italian Americans.
@@gio7799 they may be able to speak Italian, but their language is Albanian.
@@debradowling800 of course their main language is Albanian, I just wanted to point that Albanians are able to speak Italian (as second language) better than an Italian American.
Is this during Covid?
Hi, this was one year ago. Sadly I don't think we could do this same video today.
that aint dominos
The key question is: do the pizza's have an Italian or American taste?
For me it's an Italian taste, but then I have not visited Italy yet. Soon!
Felicia is My Cousin She is The Best and Sweetest 😍🥰❤ Enjoy
Toto used to eat alotta tripe, tripa, inexpensive
I'm such an idiot for going to one on lower Manhattan. Smh
Ah Cibo italiano vero non mi delizioso !
damn... no one of you is Italian nor what you are eating! That's God in Italy we eat different things.
