The Hill Italian Sandwich

This page covers three Italian delis on The Hill, St. Louis's old Italian neighborhood south of Forest Park: Gioia's Deli, home of the warm hot salami sandwich; Joe Fassi Sausage & Sandwich Factory on Sublette; and Adriana's on Shaw, known for foot-long sandwiches. All three are lunch places, so go before mid-afternoon.
