    My half of a club sandwich
    Denise T.

    Found this sandwich shop in Seattle on Yelp. I was concerned when about 10 orders came in right before we got there with only lady making the sandwiches. I was pleasantly surprised to have ordered delivered in like 6- 7 minutes. Our club sandwich was made with a generous amount of turkey, crisp bacon and awesome sourdough bread. Friendly, efficient staff with great food. A great find near the Space Needle.

    Breakfast sandwich

    Stopped in for a breakfast bite and coffee. The atmosphere was pretty calm and the staff was nice. I ordered a small breakfast sandwich with ham and bacon and cheese/egg. The meat was sliced deli meat which was a bit disappointing for a $10 breakfast sandwich. The aioli was tasty. I also grabbed a caramel latte which was pretty standard. Overall a decent stop!

    Was craving pho or banh mi sandwich and the banh mi won out. This place delivered! I had their pork sandwich combo and it was delicious. The bread was so fresh! Highly recommend!

    Delicious sandwiches! We both had hot sandwich, the grilled cheese with ham (panini style) and the Reuben. Nice bread with a bit of crunch. Service was lovely,very friendly and helpful. We will be back for breakfast before the week is over!

    Grilled pork bahnmi & pistachio mocha latte
    Melody Y.

    Stepped inside this cozy little cafe for lunch. The pistachio mocha latte was comforting and delicious. The grilled pork bahnmi was perfect - the baguette was flaky on the outside and soft on the inside. The grilled pork was tender and flavorful. The sandwich was a perfect balance of savory and refreshing.

    Tofu Banh Mi
    Huong L.

    This place have been on my list for a while now since it's not your typical place to get a banh mi in my opinion, so I was intrigued. Their hours are also very limited so I took a chance when I was running errands in the area :) It's only take out at the moment and they have a small window where they take your order and another small window next to it to grab your food I came during lunch time and they were pretty busy but it wasn't too bad. The people there are very nice. It seems like there are regulars that come by here as well. I ended up getting the tofu banh mi ($8.5). The banh mi was pretty good. The baguette was soft and fluffy, it would have been perfect if they toasted it more to give a small crunch. The tofu was delicious. Very well marinated and flavor was on point. My only critique is that they didn't have enough fillings to help Ballance the tofu, because after a while, tofu can seem too sweet. Overall, I'm glad to have given it a try :)

    Really good sandwiches!…read more I was visiting Seattle for work and during my break, I decided to go to the Armory for lunch. This was certainly a great choice, the food is excellent! I had their Philly Cheesesteak, which was awesome. Everything is cooked to order, so there is a slight wait after ordering, but it is certainly worth it. There are also seats and tables outside of the spot for you to eat at, it's shared with a few other restaurants. If you really want an exciting time, eat there while a Zumba is going on! Then you can people watch while enjoying your food.

We were able to get food on a Saturday around 4PM, and fortunately Big Mike's was one of the few places still open at the time. The armory is pretty accessible via the monorail, if you decide to drive, you will have to consider nearby streetside or venue/science center parking. Service is efficient - you place your order at the counter and they will call your name when your sandwich is ready. It took them about 10 minutes to get our sandwich out. There are plenty of tables just outside of the restaurant where you can dine. We got the ribeye cheesesteak for $23, which also came with a bed of fries just underneath the sandwich. The sandwich itself was piping hot, but just hot enough to enjoy without burning yourself. The steak was tender and had decent chew, sliced to a nice thinness. Personal preference, I would like the steak seasoned a bit more strongly as flavor-wise it does get a little one dimensional. This is definitely a touristy area part of town, and I would say that prices are pretty standard. For one person, you should be able to get a nice and filling portion for $18 - $23. I wouldn't consider this place a must visit if you are in Seattle - The flavors are decent and definitely will get you full in a pinch if you are really hungry and in the area.

    When I used to work within walking distance of Pike Place Market, this would be one of several…read moresandwich places my coworkers and I would hit up for their ready-to-go sandwiches. For this visit, i came here on a Saturday noon after finding literally everywhere else I wanted to eat at full or plagued by long lines. I mean here also has long lines but it goes by quick. Staff are proactive on grabbing your stuff, toasting them if you want them to, and bringing out your orders after paying. There's a ton of sandwich options, and all are on display along with their ingredients. You can either get half a sandwich for $7 or a whole one for $13, and there are other baked goods like baked potatoes, pasta bake and shepherd's pie. Seating consists of wall seating that you need to bus yourself. and water and napkins are self-serve. I got half of a roasted beef and gorgonzola sandwich, and my bestie got half of a crispy chicken sandwich. We also shared a chicken and parmesan pasta bake, all of which we asked to be toasted. - My bestie's crispy chicken sandwich's chicken could have been more crispy. There wasn't too much pepper seasoning on it either. - The chicken and parmesan pasta bake tasted more like mac and cheese, and wasn't the best. - The real winner for both of us was my roasted beef and gorgonzola. Normally I don't enjoy blue cheese because of how pungent it tastes, but this sandwich - along with the nicely caramelized onions - gave a fresh, savory taste and even enhanced the flavor profile of the roast beef for both of us. My bestie went back at a later time just to have their roasted beef and gorgonzola, so it's clear we have a favorite here! I'm down to find more favorites and go-tos in future visits.
