Kari, You have watched my family grow. We started coming to you spot several years ago when down there for the summer. It's started with just 2 kids then number 3 and 4 came along. We only stopped by 2 times a year but you always remembered us. It's sad to see you guys have closed down. We were just checking to see what day you would have the split pea soup as we will be down there the week of 7/26. I wish you all the best in your next adventure and if you want to throw down some of you bomb sandwiches that week hit me up and we will be there.

This place has too much hype. I went expecting something out of this world but I could have made a better sandwich at home and the price is ridiculous. I'll drive further to TKB for that price.

Wonderful sandwiches and very friendly owners. We particularly like The Missile and their homemade chicken salad.

Well let me you want truly the Best Pastrami in the the World on there special rye bread with there special deli special mustard it is truly orgasamic. Every food item is made the most quality they can get. Sherman's and Manhattan does not even come close. Open for breakfast and lunch it will literally blow your taste buds for breakfast and lunch.

We were in a hurry, saw this small "Lunch Box" and wanted to try it, small quaint place seats about 16 with one table outside. Sandwiches were good as well as the chili, it is like a Mom & Pop Sub Way, very reasonable pricing.

Delicious, fresh food in a fun, funky spot. Wonderful sandwiches. Very welcoming! We hate going out to chains for lunch, they overcharge and the food is generally generic. When we are in a new city we like to look for the local, small privately owned restaurants where it is apparent that the owner really cares. This one really fit that bill. Great food great atmosphere.

Why all the good reviews?? This place is really basic AND service was incredibly slow. French dip was literally roast beef thrown into a puffy bread roll. Nothing else. Even the au jus couldn't save the boringness of the sandwich. The grilled cheese was barely toasted, and the cheese was just barely melted globs. It took about 25 min to get our food. If we were workers on a tight lunch break...I would've been pissed. Well, I was still irritated cuz we had our young kiddos with us.

The chin chiin chicken Salad was amazing and that homemade peanut dressing yummy!!! So far one of my Favorite sandwiches is the California split with turkey on the squaw bread!!! Yummy. I also really love the missile sandwich and the grilled turkey, also the grilled cheese sandwich yummy as well!! You will not be disappointed!!!! Great prices and the owner Kari is amazing. You definitely need to try!!

If you are looking for a fresh sandwich you would pack in a lunchbox this is your place. Ingredients are as fresh as can be. Liked the sandwich I had. Take note of their style. They mastered this particular style of sandwich. Not a style I crave often but when I do this place is a go to spot. Check this place out.
