Cortina's Italian Market

Wanted to have a muffuletta so I started to hunt for genuine ingredients. The hardest continues to be the sesame Italian bread. But that’s ok we found a rustic loaf at Cortina’s. Some cravings take one more of a pursuit for me. The quality of the meats and. Cheeses are top notch. The store is well stocked. I had options for the olive salad from traditional to spicy. They España canned specialties are great for making tapas. The service was great super friendly staff willing to answer questions. Feels like a neighborhood market and not a big box market. Can’t wait to go back and try their restaurant. Way to go Cortina’s

I am originally from New Jersey, and it is so hard to find an Italian Market in Orange and Los Angeles Counties. I was doing research on new restaurants, bakeries, and markets to try, and I came upon Cortina’s Italian Market. I happened to be in Anaheim, so I stopped there.

The Good: They have a great selection of Italian canned goods, homemade sauces, deli options, baked goods (pastries and cookies), and bread. It reminded me of an Italian market I used to go to when I was younger. The cookies and cannolis had great flavor and they were fresh. The prices were reasonable for what I got.

The Bad: Their parking lot is too small. I was lucky and found a parking space. I went on a weekday, but I can imagine how jammed it gets on the weekend.

I rate all restaurants, bakeries, and markets by whether they are worth driving to in the future. I definitely think Cortina’s is worth a repeat visit, and I look forward to trying some more things the next time I am there.

Amazing sandwiches, amazing pizzas, amazing deli, amazing pastries and desserts, amazing wines, amazing everything! The always-packed parking lot is a testament to the popularity of this small but mighty tasty restaurant and market. I've been a fan for two decades now, and I love bringing first timers here, witnessing their eyes light up with one bite, and hearing them murmur, "Mmmmm!"

Love Cortina's! Pizza, sandwiches and an awesome deli all in one. It has been a go to for a long time. The sandwiches are wonderful creations, best eaten fresh at the restaurant. The porchetta is delicious, the Cortina's special is filled with all the best italian meats and the peppers and sausages is spicy in all the right ways. We usually get a pizza with pepperoni, sausage and jalapenos, it's always perfect. I don't think I've ever had a bad pizza from Cortina's. Perfect crust, generously sauced and plenty of cheese and toppings. Finally, the deli is definitely one of my favorites! Well stocked with Italian staples, its wonderfully varied and has meats, cheeses, salads, and baked goods. There are also other things like homemade sausage, meatballs, sauces and dressings. What I love getting there as well is the pizza dough, fresh bread and fresh olive oil. You should absolutely stop by if you have the chance, everything there is worth it!

Our first time enjoying Cortina's! Although we've passed by it several times and have heard great things about them from everyone! We actually got catering and they send individual meals to everyone who ordered which actually came with a lot of food, no skimping out here! The meal came with an awesome sandwich, I ordered the Italian sub which was delicious, A great pasta that wasn't too acidic and not too oily, just right, and a cookie I did not expect, must be an in house special but it had the right amount of chocolate and walnuts. They also threw in some chips, which always complete a proper sandwich meal. They are known for their meats and the sandwich I had definitely expressed that. I hope to visit the store some more in the future!
