Locally owned and operated since 1918, Gioia's Deli was built from brick and wood from the 1904 World's Fair. Gioia’s Hot Salami sandwich is St. Louis’ sandwich. The Hot Salami or Salam de Testa is made fresh daily and is a combination of beef and pork. The same recipe and techniques have been used to make the Hot Salami for over 96 years. All product is sourced locally from DiGregorio’s Market, Fazio’s Bakery, Volpi Salumeria and Gelato Di Riso.
