    Mesquite Chicken gone!

    You can't go wrong with anything you order from this spot! Not only is the food amazing, Jimmy and his crew treat you like family. A warm and welcoming place. The sandwiches are huge, enough to share and the cookies bring it all home. I feel so lucky to live close to this spot but it's worth a drive if you don't! I meant to take a photo of the food, but after one bite it went down so fast I forgot, so here is a photo of the wrapper. Enjoy!

    Super Greater Grinder with hot peppers.
    Steve W.

    Had the Super Greater Grinder, really enjoyed it. The bread was soft inside with a slight bit of crunch outside, and the taste combination of meats, cheeses, lettuce, oil & vinegar were spot on. I added hot peppers and mayo for the way I like it. I got the whole, and it isn't a super sized sub - it's just the right size. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area and like subs.

    The last bite :(

    I couldn't wait to finish eating my greater grinder to write a review, so I'm sitting here with my mouth full and fingers coated in oil and vinegar as I type. Even before I tasted the sandwich, I knew this place was a hidden gem. The customers, obviously regulars, and the employees make this place. The customers have their usual and the employees know it by heart. Even the friendly owner knew everyone in the place! The grinder is great. My half greater grinder with sweet peppers is about 3/4 of the way gone and I'm loving every bite. No, it's not gourmet, but it's deliciously simple. I love this place.

    Everything is warm and soft inside with just the slightest toasted crunch on the outside of the sub roll.

    While driving through the area I stopped in here for lunch. I came here after reading many…read morepositive reviews and then checking out their menu and I knew they were a fun and interesting place for lunch. I chose the Becca Burger, without mushrooms and their Steak Diablo Fries. They make everything fresh, to order with fresh ingredients. The burger was clearly freshly hand-packed, the jalapeños were freshly sliced, not pickled. Since they make it all fresh, you might wait a few minutes longer than the typical burger joint, but that's fine considering the amazing eats you're about to enjoy. My burger came out looking beautiful and it was definitely sitting tall! The flavor was excellent! Meat was great too!! I definitely liked having their chipotle mayo on it!! Those steak Diablo fries were incredibly tasty, with a nice kick, but sooo much more flavor than heat! The fries themselves were great, perfectly crispy and tasty, but adding all those toppings truly made it special! Service was nice... I had a few questions and she was helpful with the answers. Lastly, they have birch beer here, which I loved! Highly recommend stopping in for a great burger and fries experience!!

I've been coming here for a long time and didn't even realize that I never reviewed it. Fish n chips, burgers, fries- -you can't go wrong. Everything is seasoned well, cooked right and served up hot! And the to go bags aren't skimpy either and I love that! The parking lot is small but you can park on the side street if needed and walk up to the corner. Ambience inside is Buffalo to the max! If you're a Buffalo sports fan you'll love it, if you're not you can respect it! Now that you're done reading go get a burger!!

Locally and Black-owned in Norfolk, this lunch counter style gem is nothing short of classics you don't see that much anymore. So, on arrival, you can have a seat, and a hostess or cashier will come out and take your order. The chef will take your order if you sit at the lunch counter. Either way, your food will be cooked to order right when you order so that it will be fresh! The main star, hotdogs, is on the menu, but you can also get burgers. Crinkle fries come with the meal or chips. Now, these hotdogs come in all ways, so review the menu carefully of the options. The ingredients are made fresh all day to ensure you get your food that way. Did I mention they serve breakfast? Yes, they have a breakfast menu as well. Seating at the counter is a treat because there is TV to watch, and you can see the Chef prepare your food. The price is excellent, too; two hotdogs, fires, and a drink were about twelve dollars. This place is GREAT for lunch and breakfast; I will be back. Happy Yelping.

    My brother and I were in town for an event and decided to find something to eat after dropping off…read morepeople at the airport. We knew we needed something quick, but good. So we pulled up yelp and found fat Phillies. This is what I would call a classic Bodega/hood joint (They have all the flavors of Rap Snacks) that does a great job of serving up a good variety of sandwiches and sides at an affordable price. Now this establishment is housed inside of a convenient store in a strip mall that also has a Chinese food place and a couple of other establishments. This is a typical convenient store with groceries drinks and a couple of casino machines at the other end of the building. We pulled up to the counter as they were shutting down, so unfortunately, the wings weren't available. So we decided to go with the standard Philly cheesesteak, and fries. Sandwiches were ready in about 10 minutes and they were cooked to order. Both of us were very satisfied with the sandwiches. Mine did have a little bit of grissel and tougher meat, but not necessarily something I didn't expect given the price. Overall, this is definitely a place I would likely stop through every now and then just to grab some sandwiches and other items that I can't find in a Whole Foods.

Although they are a great place for a quick meal that's nice going down. I got the 12" Philly, and my coworker got the Italian sub. Pretty good amount of meat and cheese, the hoagie roll is soft as well. They do give a hearty amount of fries that are seasoned very generously. Same goes for the Italian sub--good amount of meat and toppings. Overall this place is a fair spot to get a nice quick lunch
