Finally happened to be on this side of town to check this place out. Was super impressed with how good the food and service was. Only downside is that its a 30 minute drive out of my way. Ill try to make an effort to come back.

In the heart of a bustling city, not far from the vivid and unpredictable portals of the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario and Luigi embarked on a quest not for stars or coins but for something far more ordinary yet equally cruciala good meal. The day had dawned with the brothers feeling an adventure of a different kind, one driven by hunger rather than heroism.
Their journey to Valentes Italian Deli, renowned for its sublime subs, was unexpectedly fraught with the kind of challenges they were all too familiar with. The city had transformed, as if by the mischievous hand of Bowser himself, into a labyrinth of detours and obstacles. Roads were upturned, and alleyways twisted into perplexing mazes. Yet, with their spirits undimmed and appetites growing, the plumbers pressed on, their determination fueled by the promise of Valente's famed subs.
Navigating through the urban jungle, they encountered a kitten stranded atop a towering lamppost, mewing fearfully. With a quick boost from Mario, Luigi scaled the post, rescuing the kitten and earning them the grateful purrs and thanks of a local shopkeeper who witnessed the heroic act. The shopkeeper, charmed by the brothers' bravery, gave them a map that charted a clear path through the city's chaosa map that led straight to Valentes.
Upon arriving at Valente's Italian Deli, the aroma of fresh bread, herbs, and quality meats enveloped them, a welcome reward after their urban adventure. They were greeted by the sight of Mr. Valente himself, who welcomed every customer with a smile as warm as the oven baking his legendary Italian rolls.
The brothers, stomachs rumbling louder than a Bowser's roar, perused the menu with the intensity of strategizing their next quest. Mario ordered the "Mighty Meat Marvel," a hearty sub packed with layers of salami, pepperoni, ham, and provolone, all drizzled with a bold Italian dressing. Luigi, seeking a lighter fare, chose the "Verdant Vegetarian," a sub brimming with fresh mozzarella, roasted peppers, artichokes, and a vibrant pesto sauce. Both subs were cradled in crusty, freshly baked rolls that were a testament to the Delis commitment to quality.
As they ate, the brothers shared stories with Mr. Valente, tales of distant worlds and daring rescues, each bite of their subs grounding them further into the reality of their present adventure. The subs were not just meals; they were masterpieces of flavor, each ingredient playing its part in a symphony orchestrated by Mr. Valentes skilled hands.
Their journey to Valentes, though fraught with unexpected turns and challenges, ended in a meal that was both a comfort and a celebration. It reminded them that adventure could be found not just in castles and kingdoms but in the pursuit of lifes simpler pleasures, like the perfect sub sandwich.
In this story, Valentes Italian Deli stands as more than just a waypoint for hungry travelers; it's a beacon for those seeking the warmth of hospitality and the unmatched joy of a meal made with care. For Mario and Luigi, the adventure to Valentes was a reminder that no matter where their quests might take them, the heart of their journey was in sharing moments of connection and satisfaction, one delicious bite at a time.
