Frommer's Review

This colorful, enclosed market opened in the heart of the Bronx's Little Italy in 1940 and is my absolute favorite. The market, like the Bronx, has had its ups and downs but now is thriving. You'll find fresh-produce purveyors, such as Biano fruits and vegetables, and Joe Liberatore's Garden of Plenty, where I buy the best tomato plants for my terrace. There is Peter's Market, for homemade sausages and braciole; Mike's Deli, for freshly made mozzarella and sandwiches; Café al Mercato, for their amazing broccoli rabe pizza and pasta fiogoli; the Arthur Avenue Baking Company, for loaves of pane di casa and Parmesan breadsticks; and even La Casa Grande Tobacco Company, where they roll their own cigars.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
