Coming attractions (aka, signage alert): The East Village is getting a Regina's Grocery & Deli

The old-school signage for Regina's Grocery & Deli went up yesterday at 111 First Ave., between Sixth and Seventh Streets. 

This will be the fifth outpost for the classic Italian-American sandwich shop "born in Bensonhurst" ... and the sandwiches are named after family members, like Uncle Jimmy or Grandma Lucy. 

No word yet on an opening date ... until then, you'll still have to trek down to lower Orchard Street for a Regina's run.

No. 111 previously housed an unlicensed smoke shop.
