Fiore's is a religious experience! I lived in Hoboken for six years,only several blocks away and the place is as good as it gets.I just made a pilgrimage yesterday.(i now live 25 miles away)It was worth every drop of gas in my car.I only wished it was thursday or saturday to score the roast beef,however the sausage and mozzarella aswell as the prosiutto and mozzarella lived up and a huge braid(about 2 and a half pounds)of mozzarella came home with me!
It is hands down the best Mozzarella in this country!
Show me better and i'll come running.
Two month ago i walked out with ten roast beef sandwiches and a pint of gravy on the side,drove 2 hours in the car into connecticut where i was meeting friends who never indulged in the Fiore's expeirence.I had built it up to be this unbelievable experience and their expectations were huge.
Safe to say i put Hoboken on the map for them that day!
Not one disappointed carnivore!

Wow - this is wonderful. Not being Jewish, I've never paid much attention to Kosher, but being allergic to corn and especially corn syrup, I will definitely look for passover foods now.

Soda isn't a real big deal because my favorite is Diet Coke, which tastes nothing like Coke - so I am not interested in switching.

But, it is really hard to find corn free foods. In fact, I wonder if those eating Kosher know that corn is hidden everywhere. For example, the glue on envelopes is frequently corn based and that bottle of OJ with a little citric acid added may have gotten that citric acid from corn. I know that sounds crazy, but with all of the corn subsidies, citric acid can be gotten from corn for less money than other sources,

Luckily, I am not as allergic as some people, because I find it almost impossible to avoid corn. I take Allegra and it is normally enough to control the itching in my hands for the small amount of corn I do ingest. For example, I gave up on avoiding baking powder, but buy organic because there is not much organic corn syrup - yet.

Make sure to read the label when you pick up that bottle of imported Mexican Coke - it's not always made with sugar (I learned this the other day when I went down to my corner Mexican market and picked up a bottle - checked the label and sure enough, imported from Mexico and made with corn syrup. Boo!)

A friend of mine goes to Stevens so we went there saturday. It was the most delicious sandwich ever. Thanks for the tip!

Shhhh, we don't want people finding out how good the food is here, let the NY'ers think it sucks. That keeps the lines shorter.

Just a couple of notes:

1. Fiore's doesn't make their own bread, Dom's Bakery around the corner does and definitely is a place to stop if you're going to come out to Fiore's. Their bread is excellent, as is their foccacia, pepperoni bread and sausage bread, also available with mozzarella if you choose. I freeze them for later use, not as good as fresh, but close enough in a pinch.

2. I never understood people who act like Hoboken is so far away. It's as far as Brooklyn.

3. PATH trains are as easy to use and cleaner than most NYC subways, I speak from authority since I've lived all over Brooklyn, Manhattan and now, Hoboken over the past 18 years.

4. f650gsd, you're what annoys me about NY. 9 times out of 10, statements like that come from people who moved to NY from somewhere else, lived here for a couple years but never ventured outside the city limits. You don't have to be insulting you know, but go ahead be an ignorant fool, more mozzarella for me.

Isn't Canadian Coke also made with sucrose and not corn syrup?

ughhhhh Fiore's mutz is the best in the world, especially when you buy it RIGHT after they've made it, and it's sitting on the counter, warm.. it's like candy.

i used to live across the street and would peer out my window waiting for the line to dwindle on saturday mornings. now i have to walk a few blocks so it's anyone's guess. but that sandwich is more than worth the wait!

Fiore's sandwich is one of the best. It is a block from my apartment. Make sure to go on Thurs or Sat as that is the only time you can get it with gravy. On nice days the line is out the door.

This made me so happy, I love this episode and have been endlessly curious as to where this place was.

It looks mighty tasty!

It had better be a good damn sandwich to take the PATH train.
