About Tony’s Italian Deli & Subs
Tony’s Italian Deli and Subs is Chicago’s premier source for authentic homemade and imported Italian foods. Located in Edison Park, a quaint residential community on Chicago’s far northwest side, Tony’s has been a favorite for specialty Italian groceries and deli items.
From Italy to Edison Park
Owners Vito Dalmazio born in Sicily (Ciminna) and wife Maria (Pontarelli) Dalmazio born in Abruzzo, Italy have been owners of Tony's since 1978. With the help of their daughters (co-owners), Jennifer and Josie, the family has focused on their rich Italian heritage and feature old family recipes that has kept Tony's as the #1 Italian deli and subs in Chicago to date.
