"The best sandwich I've ever had in my life!" says YouTube food critic Big Lou.

When it comes to sandwiches in the Hudson Valley, there are many favorites among area residents. But there is always one that stands out above all the others.

When we asked sandwich lovers back in March about their favorite place to get a sandwich in the Hudson Valley, we compiled a Top 10 Favorite Hudson Valley Delis list, and Rossi's Deli came out on top as predicted. When the Hudson Valley was asked where their favorite go-to place was for the best sub, the most popular answer overwhelmingly was Rossi's in Poughkeepsie. In fact, it seems that every year when the Boris & Robyn Morning Show on WPDH does the annual Battle of the Best, Rossi's always comes out on top for Best Deli Sandwich.

Not surprisingly, food critics are always wanting to get in on the action and try Rossi's Deli for an amazing sandwich experience. One TikTok went viral visiting Rossi's back in March, after traveling two hours to get hands on a Rossi's sandwich.
