My Hero has been a favorite for over 50 years, known for its delicious heroes like "The Champ" with the Works. The restaurant has maintained its high standards with friendly staff and good food. Despite being cash-only, it remains busy and popular, and the new parking option at Carvel is helpful. Customers praise the variety of heroes, including the new trendy options and classic favorites like Roasted Pork and Broccoli Rabe with melted mozzarella, which is now better than ever—each ingredient perfectly placed and not soggy. The semolina bread is highly recommended, especially for the chicken cutlet with fresh mozzarella and cherry peppers, which many say is the best they've had. The place has an old-school feel, great potato salad, and affordable prices, making it a community staple. Limited parking spots are available, but there is a ramp for wheelchair access. Recently, customers have raved about the chicken club on a large whole wheat hero, the meatball Parm hero, and the pastrami sandwiches. They also appreciate the friendly and helpful service. Overall, My Hero continues to satisfy customers of all ages and offers a wide variety of sandwiches, with plans to open on Sundays soon.
