Defonte's Sandwich Shop

Yeah Defonte’s is the real deal. Sure no one behind the counter wears a mask. But the sandwiches. My favorites are the Red Hook Special, the Enzo, and of course anything that has the fried eggplant. The guys are fast and they take good care of you so make sure to tip. Cash only. Get the large sandwich, you’ll be glad you did.

Hands down the best sandwich shop in Brooklyn!!!! The bread is spectacular and if you know sandwiches, the bread makes a huge difference. It’s two places I go for sandwiches, Sal & Chris in Astoria and Defonte’s in Brooklyn! Everything else is trash! Go to the best!!!!

This is the best sandwich shop in the world. I don’t eat meat and I come here and get the fried eggplant hero and they make it perfectly melt in your mouth every Time. The large hero is 17 dollars but honestly it is an amazing value. You could share it easily with four to six people if you just all want a nice solid little sample. It’s huge and very substantial. If you come nyc from anywhere in the world and love fried eggplant or sandwiches you must go out of your way to come here. I’m sure the meat offerings are great too.
