Very friendly staff and we all enjoyed our sandwiches (regular and vegan). If we are in the area again, we will be back. Thank you!

So delicious and affordable. Highly recommend

Friendly service and really good food! I was hot and hungry and the peach mango tea and lettuce wrap was just what I needed. They even filled my water bottle on my way out.
