Italian Corner on Boyd Avenue in East Providence has been a Rhode Island Italian deli and sandwich institution since it opened, serving the house-made Italian subs, imported meats and cheeses, and the prepared Italian food that earns a Providence area community its go-to Italian deli counter. It appeared in Season 15, Episode 9 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Handcrafted,” which aired October 15, 2012. Guy Fieri found an East Providence Italian kitchen doing things from scratch with the family commitment to quality that turns a neighborhood deli into a destination — house-made meatballs, fresh pasta, and the Italian subs that earn a loyal following across the Providence metro.

What to Eat
The Italian Sub with house-sliced imported meats, provolone, and oil and vinegar on a fresh Italian roll is the deli classic that earns Italian Corner its Providence area reputation. The House-Made Meatball Sub with slow-simmered marinara and melted mozzarella is the hot sandwich option most regulars return to between cold cut visits. The Eggplant Parmigiana prepared fresh daily is the classic that sets this apart from a standard deli counter. The Prepared Food Counter with rotating daily Italian dishes is the reason local regulars make Italian Corner their weekly stop. Find a Providence hotel on Travelocity.
