Great food & service - verrrry large portions Everyone in the restaurant left with doggy bags- we brought home enough for 2 more meals! The service was over the top!

Nothing not to love here at all. Incredibly imaginative and diverse menu of enormous sandwiches, salads and innovative variations on baked potato toppings. What they do, they do with supreme excellence. Pricing is most fair considering the generosity of the serving sizes; definitely a place to share a plate and not to feel bad about it. The "West of Santa Fe" salad hits the sweet spot of what they are best at; Tex-Mex and California cuisine with an upscale feel. Good selection of craft beers too for happy hour or maybe an early dinner before a Frederick Keys game, as we have done many times in the past. Don't let the business park location and industrial feel fool you. Very obviously the restaurant is run by foodies. One note: sub-optimal place for a business lunch or for (say) senior citizens despite the great accessibility: its austere and thus, loud inside. One can come back here dozens of times and not be bored.

Every time we go everything is the best. They offer drinks as well. Nice outside eating area and cute beer and wine store next door.

I ordered the Alcatraz sandwich for my first attempt at this place. Very good cold cut sandwich, no complaints. However, I got the White Bean Chicken Chili on the side. That's what really shined. Phenomenal. That alone I could have an entire meal with.

Stopped in here looking for a good lunch spot and I found a great lunch spot. I wanted to try everything on the menu. I ended up getting the South of the Market sandwich and the Flat Iron Steak Potat to-go. Both were excellent. The beer/wine shop nextdoor had good selections too. They seem busy at lunch time but the longest wait was to order. Once I ordered at the counter and walked over to another counter to pay, I may have only sat for half that time before my order was ready. Good bread and amount of meat on the sandwich. Tons of cheese and steak in the potato . Enjoy!

Service was good. My potato was good but could've been better if I ate it while it was hot still. I had a long drive. The place has a nice feel and lots of seating for the family. Even a bar area.

My husband and I had lunch there and the service was great our food was perfect. Im looking forward to going again.

Food is good but unfortunately they use a lot of different kinds of peppers in almost every food item due to a food allergy I've gotten sick almost every time I've eaten here no matter what I ordered despite peppers not being noted on the item description in the menu. Quaint warehouse style industrial concept ambiance is unique. Seating not super comfortable.

I've gotten food from them three times. Each time, the food was just.. okay. Here's what I had: 1. Steak sandwich. It sounded so yummy and it said that it came with steak sauce on top - but when I opened the container there was no sauce at all. I ate the sandwich anyway because I was starving, and the steak was honestly really good, it was just missing the sauce! 2. Chicken salad bowl. This may come down to individual taste, but I did not care for the chicken salad. It was kind of dry and flavorless. My partner gets the chicken salad in sandwich form and he loves it. 3. Lombardo (I think I spelled it right) sandwich. Again this may be individual taste, but I thought this sandwich was lackluster. I don't remember if it was the peppers, lack of sauce, or the quality of the meat, but it was not very good. Overall, I think the sandwiches are lacking in sauce or something to tie the sandwich together and make it less dry. I'm hoping they just messed up my steak sandwich and forgot the sauce because it was honestly good quality steak. Maybe I'll try them again and inquire about the steak sauce.

Oh my. Will you make me a baked potato and dump chili on it? I don't have to special order it; it is on the menu. Sign me up! The food was great, so overall. 1. Hummus was ok. 2. the additional dipping choices that came with he hummus were amazing (the pesto was out of this world). A baked potato with chili dumped on it. This is one of those adding to the we will be back list!
Really really wanted to love this place. Overall, the food was good. We got the Italian and the Alcatraz as well as some exploding potatoes and Mac & cheese. The service was pretty abysmal, we were behind one couple who expressed they had already waited 5 minutes to order and we were all still waiting a good 10 min beyond that. The restaurant wasn't very busy and there were 4 employees behind the counter, but perhaps they were busy with takeout or deliver orders? Either way, it definitely doesn't hurt to let the people in line know that you'll be with them momentarily. The guy working at the bar couldn't have been less helpful, but whatever. Then they forgot our Mac n cheese, but eventually brought it out. It wasn't that great anyway. The potatoes were good, it's definitely a very clever way to use up the unsold baked potatoes from the day or two before. The Italian was good, but the dressing tasted like straight vinegar so it kind of overpowered the rest but the meat and veggies seems fresh and plentiful. We would possibly stop back if we were hungry and in the area but it def won't make the "destination location" criteria for when we are craving really good food. I'd like to try more of the menu and hopefully catch the staff on a better day before fully deciding.

Great service and amazing food! We got 3 Alcatraz sandwiches, 1 trans-am sandwich, and 1 lomabard sandwich along with chili, Mac and cheese, and exploding potatoes. My personal favorite was the Alcatraz sandwich which tasted clean and the sauce really made the sandwich for me. Also I really enjoyed the exploding potatoes! Loved the atmosphere and helpful staff!

Our go to place traveling the I270. If you want a fab sandwich or loaded baked potato, come here.

Some of the best sandwiches and subs in Frederick. The loaded potatoes are a must try.

I visited here on a Saturday afternoon when two large groups arrived at the same time! The menu is extensive with plenty of options for all dietary needs. There are two "windows" to order from and you then proceed past the drink coolers toward the fountain drinks to pay. When your food is ready, they will call out your name. Seating is plentiful with outdoor and indoor. There is a second level with more seating. Simply walk to the register(fountain drink area) and walk through the door to head upstairs. #yelpmdburbs
