Love the food. Love the off-beat soda selections. Love the new location. :)

Speaking of which, try the tuna if you can. It sells out like a Steeler game. When it's gone I get a chicken parm. Yummy. :D
- Pros: Everything is fresh and delicious.
- Cons: Get it fast. When the bread's gone they're closed.

I've been eating at this place since it opened, and I strongly recommend you check out their deli, featuring giant pickles and fantastic homemade macaroni salad, and the under-appreciated steak and chicken salads, which are topped with roasted redskin potatoes (yum!). This place isn't just great sandwiches.
- Pros: Huge, inexpensive, tasty ssandwiches.
- Cons: No delivery.

- Cons: not treated well as a customer
