City Rub is a restaurant celebrated for its phenomenal breakfast sandwich featuring an egg, cheese, and brisket on a Brioche bun, served with a fruit cup or hash brown. The brisket is known for being fall-off-the-fork soft. While the food receives praise for being tasty and satisfying, some customers have noted issues with service consistency. Staff member Nina is recognized for her outstanding service, though there have been complaints regarding the attitude at the register.
The atmosphere at City Rub is considered good, but some reviews mention problems such as dirty tables and disrepair, with only two out of three menu screens operational. Additionally, customers have pointed out the loud music, which can make it hard to work or read. There are concerns about the switch from nice plates to cardboard boxes for serving food. Despite these issues, City Rub remains a cute spot, especially favored by travelers seeking a nice treat during their journey. Recent reviews highlight the dry rub chicken wings and the City Rub burger, with customers describing them as delicious and flavorful. However, some meals, like the fried chicken sandwich and french fries, have not always met expectations regarding temperature and portion size. Overall, there's a call for improvements in service to enhance the dining experience, but many agree that the amazing employees and management make City Rub a place worth visiting.
