Food was delicious. We had the sandwich and soup combos (tomato basil was very flavorful). Kids mac and cheese is always a winner. Service was very good; quick and polite, especially Tyker K. We will definitely be back.

Good food, only been once, got different chicken sandwich than ordered but, opted to try it as buddy got the other. It was better. Definitely more Chef/restaurant quality than standard sandwich shop. Will go back for sure, price is a bit elevated but quality makes it worth it in my opinion. Good amount of variety & options. Check they're menu and locations.
