Southern Italy’s favorite holy SAINT: miraculous monk Padre Pio’s Feast Day is Today, Wednesday, September 23rd!
*Please Note: today we will close the deli at 1pm for a doctor’s appointment in Philadelphia*

In Padre Pio’s honor, choose this week to try what would surely have been a regular meal for him, our Mediterranean sunshine on a bun, the VALENTINO SANDWICH: our Heavenly toasted ciabatta roll beset with jewel tones of deep burgundy Calabrese sundried tomatoes, draped with scrumptious red roasted peppers and deep emerald organic garden greens, drizzled with a balsamic glaze, of course. And don’t forget the secret weapon: his favorite cheese! UMMMMMMMMMMM

Padre Pio, bearing the Wounds of Christ for 50 years, witnessed by thousands, was renowned for spiritual gifts of miraculous healing of bodies and souls. If you have a prayer intention to lift up to him for God’s blessing, leave a note in the comments! We can join in prayer for your needs!

You know you’ve found the right place to “MANGIA!” when it‘s where all the Nonnas gather! We’re proud to be the favorite kitchen-away-from-their-kitchen for the proud Italian women of North Scranton, Bullshead & Providence, whose veins run with tomato sauce, basil, oregano, and soul-sustaining devotion to famiglia. Chef Vincenzo brings it all to the table.

Italy. Romance. Great Food. Why do these go together so well? Whatever the reason, Amendola’s has you covered. No passport, plane ticket or baggage needed.
* PLEASE NOTE: We will be away tomorrow, Saturday, September 5. See you next week!
* We will NOT have our 25-years-running stand at La Festa this year sadly! Come visit the shop next week for all your Best-Cannoli & Bindi imported Tiramisu & Frutti di Bosco & Chocolate Hazelnut Etc. needs.

What Guardian Angels sometimes look like. They (along with an army of countless others to whom she will be forever grateful) lifted Dorina in prayer since the moment she went into Emergency Surgery three years ago today, beginning her cancer journey. Three years of Divine Providence lighting the Valley of the Shadow. Three years of Gratitude for grace upon grace. Three years of unimaginable love poured out upon us. The shadow of the Cross weighed down upon us. But our family experienced the treasure of His Real Presence, truly with us. Thank you for all *your* prayers & love, Amendolicious family!

Just a normal sunny summer lunchtime at Amendola’s was made extraordinary when the door opened and we became the privileged hosts to missionary priest and medical doctor Fr. Rick Frechette and his friends. Fr. Rick traveled from his home of Haiti to preach at the annual St. Ann’s Novena in Scranton. His tales of death-defying rescues from brutal gangs, providing medical intervention in impossible situations, and giving dignified burials to countless dead, such that only the Hand of God could be sustaining him, mesmerized us all. What an honor and blessing to provide this modern saint and living hero with lunch.

🙏To learn more about his many powerful humanitarian works for the people of Haiti, and to support him in them, please visit StLukeHaiti.org.🙏

What would you like to eat for lunch this week? Make it Amendolicious! The superbly crusty Italian bread at first bite, yielding to soft texture that cradles the mounds of tomato, lettuce, and red onion, sliced, never shredded, smacking your tastebuds first and make you smile instantly in euphoric stupor, as the luscious, Italian-crafted blend of meat and cheese follows through.
Just the look of the sandwich is mouth-watering🤤🫠😵‍💫
