Bellino, Anchovy Fillets, 4.25 oz

The Bellino Anchovy Fillets have been a longtime favorite for my mom — she used to buy them at Big Lots back when they were still in business, and she was genuinely excited that we finally found them online. The flavor is strong, salty, and exactly what she likes for cooking, snacking, or adding to her recipes. The quality is consistent, the texture is good, and the 4.25 oz jar lasts a decent amount of time. For her, these are a comfort‑item pantry staple. The only downside is that they can be a little tricky to find, and sometimes they go in and out of stock, which makes them feel like a small treasure hunt. But once we tracked them down, she was thrilled — they taste just like the ones she used to get and have become her go‑to again. Solid 5/5, especially if you love anchovies and want something reliable.

Anchovies are the best

Love the balance of flavor oilit is in.

One of my jars was open when I got it... made a bit of a mess in the box. Besides that, they are good.

Tasty

Received an opened bottle. The top was already popped up (so when you push the top of the lid, it gives a little/pops up and down) and it did not have any plastic wrap of any sort. What kind of quality control does this company have? None. Once opened, the bottom of the lid was full of rusts as well. Surprise, not really. No returns are accepted of course. Zero stars. Horrible quality; bellino and amazon basically robbed me today. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS TYPE OF COMPANY. We don’t live in a kumbaya world where we can trust anybody or anything so bellino needs to do a better job of quality control. Get your together bellino and Amazon needs to accept returns on stuff like this. You need to take the hit, not the customers. Learned my lesson, never buying anything edible on amazon.

The four glass jars arrived intact -- no dings or dents in the lids, no leaks -- individually wrapped in bubble wrap, then taped together for extra security. The flavor of the fillets is full, rich and deep, with a nice hint of smokiness. Of course very salty, but anchovy lovers know this. I use in sauces, casseroles, side dishes, soups, Caesar salad dressing, and pizza, all of which require some salt for fullest flavor. The benefit is that I don't need to add salt; I've got it already in the dish. These are some of the most delicious anchovies I have ever come across. You can taste the craftsmanship that went into them, the flavor is so balanced, with a sweetness that lingers on the tongue. The dainty little glass jars ensure cleanest taste with minimal chemical or metallic intrusions. Once empty, they can be cleaned and re-used for a multitude of purposes... you add nothing to the landfill! What's not to love?

Good as you buy in any store.

No problems had question but was handled promptly, very good anchovies

i received the jar that wasent sealed and the jar had been opened. I notified the seller of this and heard nothing back

Advertised as 12 x 4 1/2 oz jars, but when you receive it, there’s only one jar in the box. Not worh the risk to buy at $41.

The posting says " 12 x 4.25 jars". there is only 1 jar. Product OK, but short quantity

It states 12×4,25 Oz..When it arrived there was 1, for $35+. Very dissatisfied.
