Overview
D’Angelo Grilled Sandwiches is a leader in the Quick Service
Sandwich Segment of the restaurant industry. The average sales of our
franchise shops have exceeded expectations, and the number
of restaurants throughout New England continues to grow.
Quick service does not mean we serve "fast food." Without a doubt our service is fast, but we sacrifice none of the high quality products that set D'Angelo apart from other chains. Our guests appreciate that the sandwich they order will be prepared exactly as they like it. Our menu of submarine sandwiches, pokkets®, wraps, salads, soups, D’Lite® offerings, and Kidz Meals has attracted a loyal – and expanding customer base.
