Bob’s Italian Foods, an old-school place in South Medford, offers great sandwiches, salads, grill items and much more.

Sub shops tend to do really well in good times and bad. They are typically quick and convenient, inexpensive and geared toward takeout and delivery — that last item being particularly important over the past few years, when the pandemic left to-go meals as about the only option out there for quite some time.

Any of these sandwiches are worth getting, but the pick of the lot might be the deluxe Italian caprese, which comes with prosciutto di parma, mortadella, capicola, sopressata, buffalo mozzarella, basil, tomato and oil, and is often mentioned as being among the best Italian subs in the entire Greater Boston area. The House Italian is another top pick, especially if you like a combination of hot ham, mortadella, salami, provolone and hots.

A few of the highlights include a traditional spaghetti and meatballs with an aromatic tomato and basil sauce; a simple but wonderful cacio e pepe with olive oil, butter, black pepper and grated pecorino romano; a hearty chicken marsala with ziti, mushrooms, shallots and pecorino romano; and a rich-tasting tortellini alfredo with broccoli and grated pecorino romano.
