“My favorite place in the area, as the food is always fresh and delicious! The portions are huge and Sal and his staff are amazing; he can come up with anything even if it’s not listed on the menu. They get busy with lunch rush from the hospital and still manage to get everyone in and out. I highly recommend their spicy falafel gyro! My daughter loves their chopped salmon and her best friend is obsessed with the chopped cheese sandwiches. It gives NYC deli vibes. I come here for lunch every week and have yet to leave unsatisfied. They have vegan options as well and there is something for everyone here.“

“I visited this store on Wednesday night around 10:00 PM. It was extremely busy, with a constant flow of customers and online orders. The store had a great atmosphere, and it was clear that the demand was very high.

What surprised me the most was that only two employees were managing everything. I visit this location about three times a week, and I often notice the same situation. Despite being understaffed, they handled every customer professionally, stayed calm under pressure, and provided excellent service. I had to wait about 10 minutes for my order, but it was definitely worth the wait because the food was fresh and well prepared.

I would like to appreciate the hard work and dedication of the employees. They are doing an amazing job despite the heavy workload. However, I strongly recommend that management increase the number of staff during busy hours. Additional employees would help reduce wait times and improve the overall customer experience.

One of the reasons people choose this restaurant is because they know their food is usually prepared quickly. Long waiting times can reduce customer satisfaction and eventually lead to disappointment. As someone who has also seen restaurants lose customers because of long delays, I understand how important it is to maintain fast service while delivering quality food. Investing in more staff would not only support the hardworking employees but also help retain loyal customers and provide an even better dining experience.“

“Coffee was excellent! French toast was good, but I prefer Texas toast. I can’t hold that against them tho as that is a personal preference thing and varies person to person. The only knock I had against this place is the home fries. They’re like mashed potatoes, that are then grilled on a flat top grill. WEIRD and bland. Very under seasoned“
