However, we wanted to try something that seemed very interesting. I found the Milano market that offers great sandwiches which is up the block from a friend of mine's high-end supermarket on the west side. After looking at this, we decided to order four sandwiches. A salmon, Eggplant Parm, Cuban and Italian sub sandwiches. I have to say the most important thing in the sandwich is the bread. They offered like fresh baked rustic Ciabatta, and heros. Plus from the panoply of various sandwiches that they make they don't skimp on the condiments or the main ingredients. The salmon which is hard to do was fresh and medium not well done or dry. The eggplant Parm was amazing. The Cuban delicious with fresh pulled pork and stiletto thin ham with an amazing bite made me want to speak a different language, and the Italian made both of us speak in Italian because my beloved speaks fluent Italian and I am part Sicilian. This place is truly a cut above. If you want a sandwich that is truly a meal, this place really doesn't disappoint. Will definitely be going there from time to time for something amazing.

If there was a special event, there should have been signage. If this is normal cafe policy, there should have also been signage. Had the woman working been at all pleasant and/or clear about needing the tables, I would have been a repeat customer.

Everything I've eaten has been excellent. They are very friendly and fast and efficient with getting your order and getting you the right food. Their memories are pretty amazing.

I took a picture of some of the menus (see photos). We did not get one but look at the photo of the crab cakes. Those things are huge and $5.99. If you look closely at the photo, you can see how the breading is peeling in one location and it is not heavily breaded! We got the grilled cheese, spicy nacho grilled cheese, and All American sandwich (see photos). The food is all really good and freshly prepared. Coffee was good also. Good option for quick bite.

After the cashier told me the price, I said I was paying cash and wanted the discount. He claimed the $10 was already the discounted price--apparently he knew I was paying cash before I said anything. This used to be a nice place when it first opened. Now the prices feel like price gouging. Also, I couldn't find prices posted on the items inside the store. If they're required to display prices, that's a problem, and I'll be filing a report with the city so it can be reviewed. Avoid this place. There are three other delis just down the street that charge fair prices. This order should have been around $6.

I am tempted to give Morton Williams a review of two stars like the overall score but that would…read morenot be taking into consideration the neighborhood. If anything, I feel like a two and a half stars would be appropriate. That being said, I think the negative reviews are due in part that Morton Williams is about as expensive as Whole Foods but way less selection than a Whole Foods or even a C-Town. But the prices and selection are what they are because of location. They are right by Columbia University. In terms of supermarkets in the neighborhood, it's on par with Apple Tree, which I would consider three stars but definitely not as good as Westside Market or H-Mart in terms of selection but that's the tradeoff for the proximity to campus. To be fair I haven't done a ton of shopping (I've mostly bought protein bars out of convenience) and personally if I lived there I would walk the extra 6 blocks to Westside Market for the fresher produce and better selection of goods. The times I've shopped there, I was processed fairly quickly.
