Hi Bruce, I think they close @ 6:00pm, although Saturday may be different. I'll drop you a note off line with the address and the hours. I like the soppressata, they've got some nice hams (one they've just started carrying - I'll get the name for you - it's yummy - far beyond the typical boiled hams), a nice Genoa salami, some really neat and very flavorful Molinari chub salamis (little ones hanging near the front window), a very flavorful imported Italian Provolone - but you've gotta ask for it - and a nice assortment of ravioli and tortellini from Genoa.
