★★★★☆ 4/5
Great sandwich, but limited selection and it feels like the deli is simply hanging on. The shelves and coolers are mostly empty, they’re only serving a slim portion of the menu, and it doesn’t feel particularly welcoming. However, the food tasted great (even if it wasn’t my first option) and it was fast service. It looks like they have a large to-go coffee bar in full swing.

Nothing fancy about this little spot. There is seating that filled up quickly with our group of 4 and a family of 3 behind us. Busy which is a good problem, right? Inexpensive, simple sandwich menu with fresh breads and meats. We had ham and cheese on sourdough and a couple of hot chicken and steak sammies. Everyone loved their food.

Came in half hour after lunch menu started; didn't have hot drinks, didn't have salads. However, the turkey sandwich was delicious and the place is very clean.

They definitely did ask what I wanted on my sandwich. The plac was not very busy at 12:30 pm. Pictures of a steak and cheese (spicy) and a gyro. A very good sandwich.

Little gem. Amazing steak sandwich and this is tough for me to say it as I am a sandwich fanatic. Super friendly staff greeting you tops off the experience. Strongly recommend!!

This place is convenient for a quick sandwich with freshly carved turkey. I've been coming here for years. Lately, however, the quality has been significantly slipping in terms of sandwich assembly and service. It's rather disappointing.
