The best sandwiches ever! After Cafe Olivia, I can’t eat sandwiches from other store anymore. The quality of their meat and bread is the best! I tried several sandwiches like Italiano, Milano, Prosciutto Mozzarella, Roasted beef, Reuben, and Pastrami. All of them are so satisfying. Now their coffee is so good too. I wish their store is close to my home.

Was in town for a conference and needed to grab a quick bite and found Cafe Olivia in the lobby of the Regions tower. Ordered the reuben pastrami and it was fantastic! Perfect amount of everything without making a mess. I'm usually a sauce type of guy, but this was perfectly made with a right blend of sauce, meat, kraut and cheese. But to me, what made this a perfect sandwich was the bread. Fresh and not tough. Also,here's a little side tip for this place...when you get your reuben, let it sit for about 45 seconds. The meat is hot and the heat totally "soaks" thru the bread to make it even softer. I wouldn't have changed a thing...other than to order a second one.

I love it. Same owners, same food. You should make the trip here. And if you work nearby, this is a better sandwich shop than others.

So happy to see them back open in a new spot! I went for my usual - The Milano - and it was great as always. Fresh mozzarella on the sandwich makes it better than a typical Italian.

There isn't an outside sign. Go in through the Region Tower doors on Pennsylvania and the cafe is in the lobby to your left.
On my first time, I got the pastrami & Swiss sandwich and the potato salad as a side. I was very happy with the taste and portion sizes for the price. There was a lot of pastrami. Will definitely go back.

First time visiting since they moved to the Regions Tower and it was great! I've been there twice this week, (so far). The first time I had the cubano and this morning I had a sausage, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. Everything has been fresh and delicious and they are the sweetest people! I know I'll be back regularly! So happy to have them close by!

A City Market must try!I recently dropped by for a meal. My first choice, a shrimp po’ boy, was sold out. The lady behind the counter was quick to recommend the chicken sandwich. Her enthusiasm is certainly admirable. After re-reviewing the menu, I ultimately took her advice. Topped with a unique flavored coleslaw between French style bread, it was nothing short of delicious!A staple eatery in the good ol’ City Market that’s well worth trying!

One of only two reasons to come to the City Market.
