Traveling on vacation and try to eat at local spots. Brought the family here and it was phenomenal. I got the Joe Mortali Bomb. If you like stuff with a good kick of heat, order it and you won’t be disappointed. It’s like a spicy cheesesteak sandwich. I got it on the sub roll. Also really tasty.

EDIT: Just found out that some kind local picked up our whole lunch tab as a random act of kindness. If you ever get to read this, thank you sir!
What they have is pride. You listen to them talk about the food, their specials, etc. they care. And you can taste it.
Fancy - no. Delicious- yes. With a lie lot of items you can’t get at a traditional deli, much less one of the chains.
Best “greasy spoon” Italian lunch counter this side of the Mississippi! Meatballs were juicy and rich with real (scratch cooking) flavor. Italian sausage was equally good, with fennel and very pleasant little kick. Peppers available for more kick! Wife would eat here every day. 90% of customers are greater by name and get their “usual” without opening their mouth.

Parking: Tiny lot, lots of take out; cars come and go.
