Crema's Take

Sottomarino is a neighborhood gem where exceptional Italian sandwiches and carefully crafted coffee coexist in perfect harmony, with a team that goes the extra mile—whether that's thoughtfully plating catering orders or preparing your organic iced coffee with the kind of care that eliminates any harsh aftertaste. The vibe is casual and welcoming, ideal for a quick solo coffee run or lingering with a friend, and the sandwich-coffee pairing here hits differently than your typical coffee shop. Fresh ingredients, genuine hospitality, and the kind of cleanliness that makes you want to come back regularly set this spot apart.

Great sandwiches and excellent service! I had an 8" turkey sandwich with hot peppers. I will be back to try their other sandwiches.

Very good coffee and nice staff. I came by this shop because Mom invited me since it's near her house, and I am glad we did. We didn't order food, but our coffees were good and had nice attention. I will be back next time for the sandwiches.

Called the day before to order 14 sandwiches for my work colleagues, and without even requesting it, they nicely put all of the sandwiches on platters for me so everyone could try various ones. Sandwiches are delicious and filling. Very fresh bread and other ingredients.

An ideal lunch sandwich shop features fresh, thinly sliced ingredients layered with zesty horseradish mayo, and quick service (about 3 minutes for me without a line). I had the #3 Roast Beef, a 9" sandwich that’s ample for two meals. The chewy bread and herbal dressing are delicious. While waiting, guests can indulge in some coffee; the cold brew offers a rich, chocolate taste with no acidity, making it enjoyable whether served black or with cream. The space includes 4 small tables and is more suited for takeout or a casual lunch date rather than large gatherings. Treat yourself!

Great little Italian sub spot! Super clean, nice employees, and the sandwich was great (and huge). The organic iced coffee was also very smooth with no sour aftertaste like some can have.
