Chiocca's is a one-of-a-kind Richmond establishment. Intimate, almost cloistered, you need to surrender your worry of time to enjoy its timeless pleasures.Upvote2Downvote
Jesse GNovember 18, 2015For first timers the M.I.T. Club (Made In Turkey CLUB!!) is never a let down. You're sandwich is cooked in a 1939 panini oven that is well seasoned. So each batch takes a bit but so worth the waitUpvoteDownvote
Lauren FitzgeraldMarch 18, 2016The homemade ice cream sandwiches are uh-mazing. They're from Nightingale ice cream and the chocolate peanut butter is one of the best things I've ever tasted!UpvoteDownvote
RVANewsJune 28, 2013We may be hundreds of miles from The Big Apple, but Chiocca’s knows how to do a classic pastrami on rye right: thin slices of hot pastrami piled high on toasted rye bread with a side of chips.

Amanda MelingNovember 4, 2015Decent craft beer selection. Friendly service. But come in ready to have a drink and relax, because it is going to take you 40 minutes for a cold cut sandwich, which is delicious.UpvoteDownvote- Joey DeLiseJanuary 25, 2015Sandwiches run about $11 each. Worth every penny. Delicious, fresh, home made, and HUGE. The Dagwood is ridiculously big. Couldnt even finish half!UpvoteDownvote
Great little spot in a basement. The grilled cheese is good (not gourmet but the simplicity is part of the charm).UpvoteDownvote
AngelaAugust 13, 2013The lucca is the best sandwich, hands down. They also have cider on hand because a certain someone requested it :)UpvoteDownvote
Deanna GordonJuly 13, 2012even overlooking the fact that Chiocca's doesn't have bacon, their grilled cheese is my favorite in RVA.UpvoteDownvote
