Be careful what you say at this establishment. If you don't know how to order they will be rude to you. Then if you stand up for yourself and ask them not to be so rude, they kick you out and ask you never to return. We will never return. more

Amazing, fantastic sandwiches. Pastrami to die for. Begin planning for lunch around 10am and get your order in fast so you can get your food in time for lunch. Completely worth it. more
