Decided on the TikTok sandwich which is turkey and corned beef with all the condiments and fries with Hennessey sauce. The sandwich was ok and with all the stuff that comes on the sandwich you can barely taste the meat. The fries was just fries Customer service was excellent. The restaurant in general is small and first time customers get to sign the wall. Overall I wouldn't get the sandwich again but will go back to try other menu items.

While in the area visiting a supplier from out of state I searched for some good ol' local beef…read moresandwich shops and I came across Tony's Italian Beef ! It's a small family owned dive spot that does not disappoint. I came in and though it's a cozy-spot with limited seating, it's worth the visit . Rear parking available ! They have an extensive menu on the walls, but that's what gives it character. The gentleman and lady taking the orders were kind. I asked her it was my first time here and she explained what the beef sandwich came with . There Giardiniera peppers were yummy. So here it goes....the moment of truth ! I took some pics to show case this delish lunch meal I had. I added mayonnaise and easy on the peppers n onions. Next time - full on the peppers n onions. The meat was thinly sliced and had great flavor . One bite and I was in awe of the flavor ! Tony, the owners son who runs the business greeted me and I knew he was curious as to why the photos . He was kind and I gave him my business card. I just simply heard of how good this local spot was and it was worth the trip! Thank you Tony for the smile and curiosity as to why the photo session As a chef I simply love the art and flavor profiles of food. Keep it up as you're the pilar of the community and don't ever stop giving quality food Lastly, maintain food safety at the top of your list so that you can continue to deliver great food and happy guests to your establishment! Till next time

Most of the comments call out there poor customer service as well as questionable, predatorial behavior. Stop having people unfamiliar or afraid to interact with people in roles where they have to INTERACT WITH PEOPLE. Typical stuff, not being respectful when presented with ordering mistakes, trying to charge people for silly things like bags for each sandwhich, etc. Things that NEVER happen in white areas. Absolute trash. Poor quality bread that was like a doughy shake. Got the large. Poor quality bread made it a diabetic fright. And it was disgusting. Meat was carne asada. I got a sandwhich that's supposed to be shaved meat. The Sweet Steak is a specific sandwhich. Imagine drinking an Horchata that was made of coconut milk. That's how weird it is to have you try to use your recipe for sweet steak. Isn't from your particular culture. Obviously you couldn't be bothered to research and respect the culture that this sandwhich comes from. Like you're going to tell me how it's supposed to be made? Cruz? Are you from this planet? A coconut horchata, or a buttermilk horchata, or a mayo horchata, or a cauliflower horchata - none of these are what you can get at 99% Mexican restaurant. Is carne asada usually ground beef? Just coming from SoCal it's like you're being deliberately obtuse. Really hope you take the time to think about this. It is absolutely bizarre hermano. You look absolutely bizzare to people with time to think about why you are choosing to make these decisions. Moreover it's disrespectful that you're not even trying to figure out why things are popular the way African Americans cook it. Weird and Trumpy to say the least. I avoided another spot owned by my non-black brothers because of the tendency to get frozen fried chicken in retaurants. It's unfortunate that this place is attempting to profit from the name Home of the Hoagie, a historical black female owned restaurant, yet they only supplicate the experience with poor quality. Didn't even know Home of the Hoagie used cheese. Quality is subtle like that. This place had their cheese sloppily added to the sandwhich. It's like they don't care about the community they are serving this crap too. It's really a bad look. Another "Hoagie" shop I didn't go to was also because the people making the food didn't seem like they even appreciated the food enough to replicate it with the care and degree that made their shop famous. If Mr. Cruz wants my business, take the time to replicate, at least the quality of Home of The Hoagie. All that great customer service doesn't help if your going to sell Greasy Spoon to make that quick dollar. Brought my friend from Europe here thinking it might be anything like Home of The Hoagie on 111th. You lost out on those dollars. Lost on some international good will. He's told his countrymen about Home of the Hoagie. Wanted to see if I could save some time by trying out your spot Cruz. Ended wasting time as the food was sooo terrible. Just feels disengenuous that you take the name to profit from it yet can't respect WHY they are considered the best. It's hard work that got them the coveted title. Else your name would be Cruz's Soul Carne Asada. Threw the 2nd sandwhich in the garbage without opening it. Fries both were the pre-frozen cheap stuff. Fries that I asked for sauce had hardly any! lol This is a greasy pop up. It won't last. Somebody got money, hired people they knew but failed to do anything else that could help their business. Home of the Hoagie is older than me for a reason! They are good. Even after the owner passed away. If you call ahead there's still some wait. After this horrendous experience, I'll wait in the long line, shut my mouth and like it.
