I have to say, this place is good. Specifically their chicken &steak kabob. I get it with rice, salad & side of green beans. It's like $28, but it's a ton of food, it's delicious and pretty healthy. I probably come here once every other week. It's basically 2 meals...

Bit of a hidden gem, right across from south station

I was desperate for a solid meal after traveling 6 hours on a train with no food and this place did not disappoint. The staff was very friendly, there’s tons of different options for every kind of eater, and their prices are fair in this economy. The chicken kabob was juicy, savory and cooked to perfection. The russian dressing is the star of this place, sweet and savory!!! If you’re looking for a place to get a quick lunch and feel 100% satisfied after, this place is for you!! I will be back to eat here on my next adventure.

Great portions at a reasonable price, especially in this area of town. The meat was stacked high on the sandwich I got, and the service was friendly and quick. About the only thing I might comment on as caution is the corned beef wasn't all that flavorful, and seemed more like a bland ham. The other toppings were so good, I personally didn't care that much, but if you like your corned beef to hit like corned beef, you might be slightly disappointed.

Trash, the lady at the front desk is always miserable and acts like a Karen (when you try to call ahead you get hung up on). I’ve ordered the same sandwich several times and have gotten several different prices for the same thing. Nothing is consistent here.. Perhaps the FDA would like to give them a visit

Great little local sandwich shop right near South Station. Great for a grab and go sandwich or a brief sit down on the way to Amtrak. My wife and I got the Bostonian sandwich, half light rye, half dark rye. Turkey, ham, salami with Cole slaw and all the standard veggies. Good deli pickles too. A little under $12 per person after tax.

I have passed this place for months and thought - "I should stop in here." - - Well, today I DID! - - and I was not disappointed. Since it was lunch time I chose the grilled chicken and Broccoli. VERY TASTY - - and nicely seasoned. I shall return.

Ambiance: Homey and lively
Parking: It is difficult to find street parking in this area. It is very close to South Station in Downtown Boston.
Pricing: Cheap.
Food (flavors): Scrambled eggs are always cooked to perfection with the perfect ratio of cheese to egg. I love the home fries which are never too hard or too soft. They don't use any special seasoning on the home fries but they still taste good. The whole wheat toast with butter is also super good; my toast is never burnt or dry. They always put the perfect amount of butter on it.
Portion size: Medium
Drinks: None

Note: At some point, I'd go every week and the woman in charge would remember my order without me having to actually order. It was so sweet. They have great customer service.
