    A superhero needs to come and save these sandwiches. K-Town Hero is one of the newest stalls to open next to H Mart inside the 2nd largest mall in America. With so many food options my sister wanted to try this place. The sandwiches are created by a Michelin Korean chef, Hooni Kim. All I can say is that both my sister and I were very disappointed. My sister got their popular bulgogi and I opted for their mushroom. Our assessment of the sandwiches is a 4/10. We didn't care for the slightly spicy orange dressing on the sandwiches. There were two types of mushrooms in mine. I was surprised that they used huge button mushrooms. Sure it's meaty but button mushrooms usually lack flavor. Come on, Chef Kim, I expected shiitake instead. My sister let me have some of her kimchi fries. I tried one and didn't want anymore. And this is coming from a huge French fry kind of gal. Don't understand the rave reviews.

This is a classic deli, walls full of tomatoes, pasta, family photos, and citizen of the year awards. (It only takes one interaction to understand why.) you can sit outside in nice weather, but the chit chat inside makes you feel especially welcome. My only regret is we forgot to get cannolis on the way out. (Probably because the portions are huge.) Not far off the highway so you can keep dad feeling like we're still making good time. We'll be back on our next Northeast haul.

I ordered the buffalo wings, garlic knots, a small cheese pizza with vodka sauce instead of marinara & mushrooms, and a cannoli. The wings were not Buffalo, they were a mix between Buffalo and bbq. If I had known, would not have ordered. Did not like the bbq sauce flavor. I also asked for ranch as I despise bleu cheese but alas, I did not get ranch and had to eat my wings plain. Garlic knots were perfect. The pizza tho. Ugh, it was so bad. They made a cheese mushroom pizza with way too much cheese and then put the vodka sauce on top after!!! Like a drunken grandma pie. That's not what I wanted. I asked for, "a cheese pizza with vodka sauce." It was so soggy that it soaked through the bottom of the box. Stayed soggy even after reheating in the oven. I ate half a slice and tossed the rest sadly. I won't be ordering from here again. The cannoli was fine but wouldn't order again either. The only thing I would eat again is the garlic knots. Very disappointing for Jersey pizza.

I go more traditional with roast beef, capocollo, American Cheese, mustard and Balsamic on the half-loaf of bread. We arrive at our favorite park and sit to enjoy our "sangwheeches". No complaints.

It was all that and a bag of chips, which was WISEly purchased to go with lunch. Other than the fact it's hidden in the neighborhood and you need to find parking, we are very satisfied and we look forward to returning.

The service is pretty quick and employees are friendly, with the typical NJ/NY vibe of friendly but a little in a rush. I ordered the pesto sandwich, heated, and man was it good. The bread was perfect and the homemade mozzarella just really makes it! The flavors were so good as well and if I'm in the area again I will definitely be back! They also have some seating inside, though it feels more like a takeout spot.

    We finally made it this past weekend to Vinnie's Mootz for one of their special tasting menu…read morenights, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. If you're expecting a typical dinner, think again. The tasting menu featured around 12 courses, and by course ten I was completely full--but somehow still excited for what was coming next. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, packed with flavor and very tasty. For me the standout of the night was the very first dish which was Vinnie's homemade mozzarella with tomatoes, which was so good that we even bought some fresh mozzarella to take home. The meatballs were also outstanding, and the steak and eggplant course was another highlight. After all that food, finishing with a cannoli just felt like the perfect ending. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, but the food is every bit as good as what you'd find at restaurants that cost a lot more. Live guitar music throughout the evening added to the experience created a nice vibe. My only suggestion would be maybe to turn it down a notch or two as it was a little hard to hear others at our table. Still a very nice touch though and all songs you would know. I always like it when a chef comes out of the kitchen, especially at a tasting menu, and Vinnie came out several times to chat with guests which was very nice. It just added a personal touch and showed how much pride goes into both the food and the overall experience and we got to hear his back story. This tasting menu is an incredible value and a great way to try dishes you might not normally order. Just remember to come hungry--and maybe skip lunch beforehand. If you can get a reservation for one of these tasting nights, don't hesitate.

After my first visit, I can say the tongue-in-cheek spirit of Vinnie Mootz's signage carries right through the front door and into its lineup of "SANGWEECHES." I ordered "The Nicky Mootz" -- cutlet, bacon, hot sauce, and fresh mootz -- and enjoyed it immensely in the friendly, medium-sized dining room. The pizza, which I plan to try on a future visit, looked excellent, and the small assortment of hand-stretched mozzarellas is reason enough to stop back in the next time I'm passing through. It's a Jersey sandwich -- excuse me, sangweech -- shop with all the charm, humor, and flavor you'd hope for the community!
