Sandwiches are delicious and the atmosphere makes me feel like I’m at the cottage on Peaks. Service is always welcoming and helpful. Soups are delicious and bursting with flavor. Stop in and say hi to Casey and let him fill you up with a scrumptious sandwich!

What a diamond. We came back to see if the great quality and service was a fluke or if it would be the same. It was fantastic. The corn chowder is so packed with flavor. These are the types of places we need more of. Friendly staff that cares. Local press is a must.

Stopped in to grab lunch to go. Very friendly staff. Not too long of a wait for it being lunch rush and all. Had the Buena Vista and it was great. Was a fun treat to see they had old fashioned glass bottles of Coca-Cola, so got one of those too. Was a great lunch and would eat here again if I was in the area!

My sandwich had a lot of added sugar. They charged me 60 cents for credit card use - I was surprised. To be fair there probably was a warning somewhere, but with all writing on the menu and in the store, it would be easy to miss. Bottom line: a typical Portland food establishment, nice, friendly, heavily sugared food, and not so obvious surcharges.

Delicious. Today I finally stopped in after driving by it for years. I should have come earlier. My paninis were incredible. Full of flavor. The staff were friendly and fun too. Smiles from all.

Out of the way sandwich shop in Portland. Plenty of parking on street. You'll pay about $20 for a sandwich, chips and a drink but the bread, meat and fixings are all fresh, carefully prepared and delicious. Seating is limited so you may want to take it with you. Very friendly service and a bathroom.

It's absolutely fantastic just not quite filling enough I have to eat 2 sandwiches which isn't cheap but definitely a decent Ruben and fig jam stuff on ham is crazy good. Will someone please bring back full belly deli....
