The flavor was okay at first, but as I got toward the middle of the sandwich, I noticed the meat was actually cold. I'm not sure how it was heated, but it definitely didn't seem like it was warmed through properly. The au jus was also disappointing and had an almost burnt taste to it, which made it hard to enjoy the rest of the sandwich. Sadly, I don't think I'd come back based on my experience.

Fellow Blossom Valley Yelpers, we didn't lose a BBQ spot! Armadillo Willy's on Santa Teresa Blvd…read moreclosed down, but someone revived the place! In short, it's an upgrade. FOOD (Brisket and St. Louis-Style Ribs) I got the brisket and asked for it to be fatty. It was as good as some Texas brisket, and I don't give that comparison lightly. I'm very serious about Texas BBQ. I'm also realistic because Texas-level BBQ is achievable by Californians, but only if they put the time and love into it. Currently (07-24-2026), this brisket has it. The true test is whether it still has it in July 2027. I also had the St. Louis-style barbecue ribs. I wouldn't give them the Texas star of approval, but they're upper-tier California barbecue. That's very respectable, in my opinion. My sides were Caesar salad and coleslaw. Both were fresh and held up to what you want and expect from both. The coleslaw has that expected sweetness, and the salad didn't have a single wilted lettuce leaf. The general feeling I got from Empire BBQ was that they have a strong food-handling system in place. Having fresh salad leaves is a small but sure sign of that. DESSERTS Under the radar, this place is killing it with its dessert selection. Whoever put together the dessert menu must've had fun doing it. I didn't have room to eat any, but boy do I plan to. I won't comment on them, but I added photos of each one, minus their bread pudding which wasn't in the display case. SERVICE Excellent, helpful, and kind. The person who helped me was knowledgeable about the ingredients used and the pricing, making sure I got what I wanted in a way that made sense with the meat combinations and sides. Even the chef went and checked the ingredients so one of my questions could be answered. AMBIANCE I came at around 1 p.m. on Friday, and it was a great setting to watch sports, hear old rock music in the background, and take in the BBQ smells. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I give Empire Armadillo BBQ 5 stars. This is a must-try, with so many more menu items (especially the desserts) that I look forward to trying!

Service was completely overwhelmed on Sunday (Father's Day) and it took a long time to order and then a very long time to get our food. They ran out of fries (wha?) and the cashier said we could get sweet potato fries instead, but didn't mention the upcharge until I asked. Gee, thanks. I'll jump right to the food though. I love pastrami and I love corned beef. I had checked out the photos here on Yelp before we went, and it looked like it had potential. I don't know what went wrong on our visit. I got the Fresser, which has both of those meats. My sandwich did indeed have two meats on it, but both were incredibly bland. One meat - I think maybe the corned beef? - was sliced paper thin (which can be fine - my beloved Manny's Deli in Chicago does it thin) - but this was for some reason then griddled? It was SO DRY - kiddo remarked it was crispier than the bacon we had at breakfast. No flavor to it at all either. The other meat was a little thicker, and so it was juicer, but if it was the pastrami, I apparently didn't get any slices which had the pastrami seasoning on it. The portions were also skimpy. The kitchen was completely slammed and tables sat with empty plates on them for most of our meal (which was really annoying as folks were moving them from table to table to try to clear spots for their groups). All in all, I should've just waited for a lunch at Gunther's to fill that pastrami need!

I…read moreordered the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich, my sister got the ABC Burger, and I also got a Chocolate Mint Milkshake. The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich was improved, but the chicken was still under seasoned /dry. Thankfully, the buffalo sauce and ranch added enough flavor to make it enjoyable. My sister really liked the ABC Burger, but we both agreed that $14 for a burger without fries feels overpriced. The Chocolate Mint Milkshake was just okay. The chocolate puff cereal and milkshake were about a 1:1 ratio, and the mint flavor was much too strong for my taste, so I wouldn't order it again. Overall, this visit was better than my first, but I don't see myself coming back often. For the price, I'd rather go to Red Robin, where sandwiches are similarly priced and also come with fries. *BOTTOMLESS FRIES* I order it take out this time so there's no customer service was needed during this yelp review. There's also no ambiance added to this review as well. It is solely on the quality and taste of the food I purchase.

Hahaha although I loved their classic with added on avocado, and the egg was so light and fluffy, but the sauce is in the avocado, gave it such great flavor I didn't even care!! My three-year-old niece loved her classic sandwich without the sauce since she's three and she can't have too many flavors. Lol but she really liked the dirty Tots!! Hee My aunt truly loved the coconut water Matcha drink so I actually came back and got her a second one! Funniest thing is, my aunt doesn't like Matcha, but she loved how there was fresh coconut inside and how they're Matcha didn't taste grainy or like grass. Lol.

There are both outside and inside tables, and plenty of people hanging out and enjoying their breakfast. I didn't love the avo & tomato sandwich, I think because it has a fried egg and not the fluffy scrambled eggs, so the egg kind of disappears and most of what you taste is the bun. The tater tots were fantastic though, as was the special coffee with vanilla. I think I'd go back to make sure I order something with the fluffier eggs. The staff was very nice and also hard working. The food came out fresh and quickly!

We both got chips and soft drinks. Here's the thing about Jersey Mike's, if you haven't been there. They have a slicer, and the meat and cheese are sliced fresh for each order. The bread is baked fresh on the premises. The sandwiches were really tasty. Honestly, if I were going just for a cheesesteak, I'd probably go to Amato's, but for a nice selection of sandwiches, this is a great option. For a fast, tasty meal with fresh ingredients, I highly recommend this location.

September 15, 2026 and I came in for a late lunch…read more The rosemary bread was absolutely delicious!! But the turkey on my sandwich tasted like Jr high school turkey loaf, cheap and nasty! Then I still cannot believe what I saw. A gentleman came in and met up with somebody who was already there which sounds innocent enough, right? The gentleman that came in had a very young puppy with him that was cute and full of energy, but at the same time and faithful to that gentleman. Innocent enough? But then the dog was allowed to walk on top of the table and an employee brought over food in a to go container for the dog... They obviously knew each other. Unbelievably as the dog walked around in the restaurant it peed underneath of the table of a couple seated next to me!! Unbelievably disgusting!!!! Before I departed I went into the bathroom. The toilet paper was sitting on top of the dispenser and the paper towels for wiping your hands after washing was sitting on top of the dispenser. Thankfully, the soap dispenser worked. I can only imagine the poor quality/unhygienic the rest of the places is... the bathroom was disastrous. The restaurant allows people in with a puppy, and the puppy pees on the floor and nobody pays attention... Additionally, I never saw anybody clean a table top in there and keep in mind that dog was walking on top of one of the tables. I will never go back!! And I suggest you do not eat there!!!

While I do love just about any and every type of food, there's always been something about a good deli sandwich that brings me back to childhood and my uncle's old delicatessen. I've even gone so far as to institute a "Sandwich Friday" for our weekday dinners, and as of late, we've been going to Zanotto's Willow Glen, as it's on my route home from work, but the other day we changed things up and came to the Sandwich Mill--and boy, I'd forgotten how great this place is! But to keep things fair, I decided to do a sandwich-off and see whose sammy reigns supreme--allez cuisine! Bread: This might be the most important part of the sammich, in my opinion, and The Mill beats the shit out of Zanotto's on this one. Their bread is so soft and fresh, like a pillow that's been in the dryer. While Zanotto's breads, despite how busy they always are, always seem old and stale. Also, The Mill has a croissant option! Winner: Sandwich Mill Toppings: Pretty standard across the board, as both have a variety of mustard, sauces, and the usual cavalcade of classic sammy toppings (e.g., pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, etc.). Winner: Draw Meat: Zanotto's has a larger selection of deli meats, including prosciutto, but The Mill has Italian sausage and meatballs. Winner: Draw Cheese: The Mill just has a small handful of classic cheeses to choose from, while Zanotto's has a bevy of classics as well as some exotic stuff like Hatch Chili Cheddar, Smoky Cheddar, and Horseradish Cheddar, to name a few. Winner: Zanotto's Ordering: Zanotto's doesn't have an online portal, unless you use DoorDash, but then it only connects to the Rose Garden location, which is way across town for us Cambrian residents. Plus, DD equals paying extra $, while The Mill has a really easy-to-use website where the price you see is what you'd pay in-store. Winner: The Sandwich Mill Accouterments: Zanotto's has a whole grocery store of stuff you can buy, including beer and a giant selection of crisps. While The Mill only has a small selection of crisps. Winner: Zanotto's Price: Zanotto's sandwiches are $14/ea, while you can get a regular for $10 or a large for $14 at The Mill. Pro Tip: If you like wraps, The Mill's wraps are easily twice the size of Zanotto's and for $5 less! Winner: The Sandwich Mill Ambiance: Zanotto's parking lot sucks and it sometimes takes forever--especially on weekends!--to get your sandwich thanks to their lack of online ordering. At The Mill you place your order online and by the time you arrive it's ready for you. Easy in. Easy out. Winner: The Sandwich Mill **DING DING DING DING** Conclusion: It was a tough battle, but The Mill comes out on top with a decisive final score of 4-2-2. While Zanotto's is still a damn, fine place to get a sammy, I think we'll stick to The Mill from now on.

Whether we're stopping in for a quick breakfast or taking our time, we always have a great experience. One of the things we appreciate most is the staff. Everyone is always friendly, attentive, and makes us feel welcome. When you visit somewhere as often as we do, that kind of service really makes a difference.

The lattes were good , but the cherry matcha latte was very good!! You could taste the hint of cherry in it! They have a lot of seasonal drinks that are on the menu in front of the register as well!
