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!

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.
