Packed with flavor and more than filling even in a small size. The setup is simple. You walk in, order, and go. There is limited seating, but that is part of the experience. The woman behind the counter was also really helpful in guiding me to the right choice, and she nailed it. I will absolutely be back next time I am in the city. This place is a must for a great sandwich.

There's also a riveting topping that includes pickles, peppers and onions. Service was great. Since there are no seats, some logistical work is needed.

I decided to risk it an order in Italian and a jar of stuffed hot peppers (I love these and usually get em at Roy's). The sub is great. The meat was good, the 'bread to stuff' ratio is ideal. It really hit the spot. A classic working-man's sandwich. Prices are reasonable too! Peppers are ace! It's hard to tell by the picture, but they really don't skimp out. They put a lot of peppers in this little jar. Happy customer here, would be delighted to order again.

I've one or two had other items and while I can't rave about them, they were quality. Just not to my personal liking. The inside is a bit of a throw back and you can feel the family history. The chix parm and pizza would have me coming back, but Steve is great to see behind the counter and a great human. He does a lot for the community and when I was driving by, he wasn't sitting inside with the 90degree temps, he was outside with a hose cleaning the side walk.

The servers inside are working their tails off...! Their work pace is not the issue, it's the establishment's popularity...! Looks very authentic inside like a restaurant / deli you might find in Firenze. I decided to order the Italian Sub as they make it; no changes. In hindsight, I should've changed a few things I kind of knew I wouldn't like, but wanted to roll with their take on the classic sub. The bread was very fresh and the meats abundant and plentiful! I was not a fan of the balsamic, nor the "hots" (not "hot" so-to-speak, but kind of a marinated sweet pepper, nor am a fan of sweet pickles. Condiments on their sandwich...? Mayonnaise (none), mustard (none). I believe it's only balsamic and EVIO. I ate a half sandwich and was quite full. I honestly threw the other half out. Wasn't my jam.

PRO-TIP: Place an order online for pick-up; walk up, go in the second door (to the left) straight to the counter where you pay and pick up your sandwich which will be ready by the time you get there. I will try this place again; I'm just modifying the sandwich to a version I know I'll love. Side note: The chip selection had some crazy flavors I've never seen before such as "Fried Egg"
