"Take delicate, intensely lamb-y little meatballs, plop 'em on buns with a pleasingly meaty-tasting tomato sauce, and add creamy Caprino, an Italian goat's milk cheese: you've got our favorite meatball sliders in town."

Diane Chang

"Chef Andrew Carmellini serves his famous lamb meatball sliders seasoned with Mediterranean spices and sprinkled with Caprino cheese. The sauce to meat ratio is perfect--just enough peppery tomato sauce to balance the lamb without overwhelming it."

Alessandra Bulow

"Chef Andrew Carmellini prepares awesome lamb meatball sliders. Carmellini grinds the lamb with onion, simmers the meatballs in tomato sauce, then serves them on Parmesan-onion buns with cucumber pickles. They’re fantastic and reminiscent of the old-school type—the kind one might think Carmellini grew up with."

Adam Roberts

"These sliders were unimpeachably good: the meat, tender and juicy, and the bun perfectly suited for its purpose."

Alexandra Reichek

"The lamb meatball sliders scream with flavor, and the sauce and meat melt straight into the soft, flaky bread."

Jessica Allen

"These three-bite treats are moist, meaty, and flavorful, — everything you want from a meatball. They come slathered in tomato sauce, topped with Caprino (an Italian cheese made from goat’s milk), and nestled between Parmesan-onion buns made in-house."

Jillian Nadell

"These meatball sliders were delicious with caprino and cucumber. The meatball is the perfect size and moist with nice flavoring. I liked the cheese and the cucumber added a nice crunch."

The Quest for 101

"The meatball was moist and flavorful, covered by a melted goat’s milk cheese and a modest slice of pickle, and nestled between the softest, fluffiest bun."

The Hungry Roach

"The lamb meatball sliders with caprino (a goat's cheese) and cucumber are a must. The sliders are also different from any that I have tried as both the flavorful meat and the mini brioche bun stood out in my mind."
