  This is by far my favorite deli ever. I miss the days I went to Buon Amici Deli every Friday with my older brother.  Every week we would order two different sandwiches and swap the halves.  We'd generally always stick with an IX Tapa as the default, and then order one of our other favorites like a Stoli, Roma, or Parma.  There are so many unique options to choose from, including fresh made cold deli food and hot food specials.  This is a deli, so you can come in just to order cold cuts and fresh Italian imports.  The owner, John, and his staff are the best people.  They pay attention to detail and only use high quality ingredients, including fine Italian imports.  This is not your run of the mill, low quality NY sandwich shop.  This place is the real deal.  Note: There's no seating at the shop as this is strictly a deli.  Sandwiches and food are neatly packed so you can enjoy eating your delicious food in your car or other accommodation.

  Been going there since high school! The quality does not change! Their 007 sandwich is one of the best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had in my life!! It's a sandwich that must not be missed and get them early bc they do run out!!

  Best panini in Scarsdale! I especially love the Stoli! It's easy to get to on the way home from the train, and the lines have never been terrible when I've been. I get weird vibes from the owners here though, and always feel like they are super dismissive towards customers (except for the guy that works by the door- so friendly!), but everyone seems to love them, so maybe I've just caught them at off times. Usually when I frequent a deli, it feels friendly and welcoming, but I always want to get out of here as soon as possible. The sandwich is next to perfect though, so I keep coming back.

  So good! Great Italian deli with a ton of unique and creative sandwiches and paninis. My person favorite is the 007 which has chicken cutlet, fresh mozzarella, bacon, bbq sauce, and hot sauce. Prices are fair and everything is consistently delicious. They also have hot food, and while I have never ordered any it looks so good! Great place to check out while in Scarsdale.

  I recently attended a function catered by Buon Amici. Westchester has an overwhelming number of Italian restaurants and eateries, and despite being neighbors with NYC I've only found a few of them that truly deliver the goods.
  
  The function was small, so I really only sampled their chicken francese, roasted vegetables, and rice balls. Chicken francese is kind of a played out Italian dish - it's almost on the same level as chicken parm. However, I was impressed - it had good flavor and they made the cutlets nice and thin which I appreciated. It also wasn't overly oily which can easily happen with a dish like this. The vegetables had good flavor as well; it mostly contained fibrous veggies like broccoli and cauliflower - but for someone like me who doesn't like the latter I found myself enjoying the entire mix. I've had better rice balls - they were the large kind which is fine but I found them to be a little dry and lacking flavor.
  
  Overall Buon Amici has piqued my interest. Reviews on this page are  really encouraging and rave about their speciality sandwiches, so I may have to trot over to Scarsdale and check them out in person.
