If you haven’t yet checked out our favorite sandwich shop, Matano’s Little Italy, you better hurry!

The deli is closing July 28 and will reopen more than a month later, on September 4.

Maria and company are taking a well-deserved summer vacation.

However, we will miss her delicious sandwiches, lasagna rolls, tiramisu and other delicacies.

If there was ever a reason to brave the insane Yucaipa Boulevard roundabouts, Matano’s is it.

We (and those who have given Matano’s a five-star rating on Yelp) will have to find somewhere else to lunch during the month of August.

Matano’s Little Italy, 12114 California Blvd., Yucaipa, is normally open 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
