~ A most pleasant surprise found in Block 37 Food Court on 108 State St.. Hunt It Down, Enjoy, Repeat. You will need to.

I wanted to have a good experience because I loved all of the reviews. My sandwich took 15 minutes and I was the only person in there. I actually had to tell the employee I was trying to catch a plane and had to go. Extremely underwhelming. Also my sandwich was $13!

Nice sit down spot. Best breakfast I've had all week, and for the entirety of our vacation.
Nice quiet spot at 9am on a Wednesday. Good variety.

Dont know about best ever, but lacked on taste. Pretty bland soup and sandwich. Plus for the price I could of bought a pack of Kraft singles, loaf of bread, and some country crock butter and made grilled cheese for my neighbors and me.

Really the most unremarkable sandwich I've ever eaten. I asked the staff for a recommendation and ordered the margarita. It Was very ordinary and not very filling. I don't get downtown much and thought I'd grab a quick bite. I was very disappointed that I stopped here.

Solid grilled cheese, can't complain. Left me feeling satisfied and satiated. Not too greasy or heavy. Pretty good! However, I paid $14 for what amounted to a pretty small sandwich. Nice to try once, and maybe if I'm in the mood specifically for a grilled cheese, I might have again.

The food was alright but the wait was much longer than it needed to be. The cashier who helped me and the one sandwich maker were doing their best but there were two blonde girls working that seemed to be harassing the one person questioning their ethnicity. As a latine person I felt very uncomfortable watching these two white women seemingly harass their co worker. Not only that, while they were harassing him they were standing there holding blocks of cheese for what felt like 20 minutes. Letting their co workers do all the work around them. I love Gayle Vs but this behavior was unacceptable in my opinion and not welcoming.

The best grilled cheese I have ever had, hands down.

I got the pulled pork grilled cheese and my daughter got the Mac n Grilled cheese. They had local brand soda, and not the major brands which was fun and refreshing.

Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese :
The pork was well cooked and flavorful, with a reasonable serving for the sandwich. It had a unique slaw with apple which gave it a sweet crisp flavor that was surprising and pleasant. The texture added a nice little pop to the sandwich. The bread, grilled to absolute perfection! I can not over state this enough. It was crisp and crunch without being dry or loaing flavor.

Mac n Grilled cheese:
The pasta was perfectly cooked, a common issue of Mac and cheese on toasted sandwiches ( overcooked pasta that leads to. Soggy mess) was nowhere to be seen. The cheese pull was IMPRESSIVE and the cheese was mixed well across the full sandwich. Again bread was crisp and perfect.

The sandwiches are a good size for their value, even if they aren't the over sized sandwiches Some have come to expect. However, what you don't get in physical size you get in flavor and higher quality ingredients.

100/10 would recommend (and have considered making the 2 hour drive back just for this sandwhich)

The staff was friendly, the atmosphere peaceful, and food brought right to your table. Take a chance and give this lovely place a visit.
