Luigi's Fine Foods
915 Decatur Street
New Orleans LA United States
Luigi's is an old-time Italian deli in the spirit of Central Grocery and the now defunct Progress Grocery, and its specialty is the same: the muffaletta. The lines are shorter at Luigi's than at the competition, the prices are lower, and the muffaletta's at least as good. Luigi's also offers soup (made daily, from scratch) and classic Italian-American fare such as lasagna, as well as Italian and Mediterranean delicacies including anchovies, oils, dried figs, and pasta, a modest selection of wine, Italian deli meats, and bottled beverages. Seating is extremely limited; items are wrapped as though for a long haul. Carry your sandwich to nearby Jackson Square or Woldenberg Park on the river on a nice day.
