Zito’s Deli is a longtime San Antonio sandwich shop that has been serving the community since 1975. Founded by Rhode Island native John Zito, now operated by his son Brad, the family-owned deli quickly became known for its warm atmosphere, fresh-baked bread and generous Italian-style sandwiches.

The shop’s most famous item is the “Serious Sandwich,” a large pressed sandwich created with Italian meats, signature spices and a secret family dressing. Made fresh daily, the beloved item has helped make Zito’s a local favorite for nearly 50 years.
