We kept adding on to our order and ensuring we had everything right. I opted for the fish sandwich and I didn't tell them about my food allergy so that's on me. I made the best of my sandwich by removing the bun and hoping for the best. Thank goodness I didn't have any issues because I was starving. Overall this will always be a favorite. They have a few seats if you want to dine in and they keep this spot clean. Would I go back? Yes Check them out if you haven't already done so.

Koolaid can be tricky (it's easy to make it too sweet or too watered down) but MEL DID IT AGAIN! It was a rainy gloomy day....but the moment I took a sip of that koolaid I felt like I travel back to 2 months ago when it was 90 degree weather. It felt like SUMMER in a cup. It felt like grandma made that koolaid. You know when grandma make the koolaid she put the perfect sugar, koolaid and water ratio. This was THAT. It was super refreshing and I loved that he didn't fill the cup with so much ice, if so I would have killed that koolaid where I stood. The koolaid barely made it home the way I was sipping and slurping. You the ONE Mel! Sn: The owner also changed the menu. I let him know that he had a mix up of peppers on his menu and he changed it right away. This is becoming my favorite hoagie spot (in terms of deli. They add a Taurus's sweet steak on the menu it will be over with!) Get use to seeing me Atleast once a week!!!!

It's creamy, not as many crunchy veggies as Jimmy John's but if you get it with guts you won't miss that too much. It's flavorful, like Jersey Mike's, but can get a bit messy- but not as messy as Jersey Mikes! The bread is fresh, hearty, and chewy and doesn't absorb the juices right away- especially if it's toasted. I get it toasted, with provolone, Peppos way (I ask for no mayo because I think there's a lot of it in the tuna already-wish they put less mayo in there), with garlic/jalapeno guts. If you're thinking about it, go quick before Lent is over!
