Forget "sandwiches", this place makes sandwizes because the guy that runs this place is a wizard!…read moreHe knows his flavours, he knows his breads (which he collects at 4AM every morning), and him and his staff go above and beyond to look after the customer. We drove past this place one afternoon and the wife and I knew we had to eat here. We found street parking and made our way over. From the outside the red neon sign gave a very strong impression. Inside it was a little bit dull but that doesn't matter when you start to read the menu board. All the menu items suggest bold American flavours. Choose your filling, bread (sourdough or rye) and whether you want it fresh or toasted. I was worried about my sandwich being toast until I was told that they'd add the lettuce afterwards to prevent it from wilting. The food came out quick. My wife asked for soy milk in her coffee which they had run out of. However one of the staff went to the corner store, JUST FOR US, to buy a new carton. I was amazed by this. This truly was a selfless act and to me it defined what great customer service is. Our food came out quickly and tasted amazing. I ordered the hoagie sandwich. I know in The States a hoagie is this massive bread roll sandwich thing, but this being Australia they brought out a toasted sandwich which tasted just like a hoagie. Perfect down to the last bite. The staff are great company and extremely friendly. I want... nay, NEED to come back here to try some of the other sandwiches. A great place for a meal which isn't too heavy but will leave you thoroughly satisfied.

Saw some photos on social media and seeing as there are rarely any sandwiches in Sydney served on hoagie's save for Subway...I made a beeline to Monty's. I got the Boston ($14) which is pretty close to a Philly cheesesteak, but with tomato relish instead of mayo, and brisket instead of ribeye. Either way it tastes pretty similar...and that is AWESOME. Next time I'm asking for mayo instead of tomato relish. You can get a meal combo for $5 for chips and a drink. Chips are pretty good too...plus the various types of dipping sauces they have. Several options for beef, chicken and pork sandwiches...even hot dogs. I want to try them all...but damn that "Boston" was delicious.

My coworker and I stumbled across this gem of a place, and we would have come back the next day if it had been opened. They had a great menu of fresh-pressed juices and smoothies, and have sandwiches and salads ready for take-away if you're in a hurry. I'd suggest making your own sandwich. There's not really anywhere to sit except for a few seats against the wall, so if you're looking for a sit-down place, you may want to go elsewhere or be prepared to take your food and find a park or bench to eat at. 5 stars; healthy, fresh food, great customer service, all at reasonable prices.

It's a favourite spot for locals and people working in the area to meet for breakfast / brunch / lunch. The patisserie offers a great range of sandwiches and savory treats, including delicious meat pies and sausage rolls. There is also a huge selection of cakes and desserts. I love the macaroons, which are available in a wide range of flavors (salted caramel is my favorite). I ordered several dozen of these for my wedding two years ago, and everyone loved them.

We're always on the hunt for somewhere to try that we haven't been before. When our personal…read moretrainer recommended Tradewinds in Maroubra, we were keen to try, given that it's also local for us. We are surprised that we hadn't been before. The restaurant can easily be found on Maroubra road with ample parking around. Whilst the restaurant is quite large, and can accomodate couples, families and groups, we recommend booking to guarantee a table. One of the best things about the restaurant is that the staff are just so darn nice. They all appear to love their job, be eager to help and offer suggestions as to what to order. We felt welcome and appreciated the quality service. Furthermore, the service was efficient, with food being delivered in good timing. Food wise, Tradewinds is a modern restaurant / bistro in Maroubra specialising in hearty food; meats on the grill, burgers, pastas, pizzas, salads and plenty of specials with influences from around the world. They have a good range of meats and we absolutely loved their smoked ribs, basted in a delicious - sauce. We ordered the pork ribs on one occasion and the meat platter on another. The meat platter also comes with steak, lamb souvlaki pieces and some of their tasty beer battered steakhouse fries. We also the flash fried salt and pepper calamari, served with fresh rocket and creamy aioli. The kofta special was also delicious; the kofta served with pita, fries and salad. Tradewinds also does plenty of desserts, tea and coffee as well as brunch on weekends. The restaurant suits all demographics - young and old and perfect for any sort of catch up. We recommend trying out this family owned business for the food is great, portions are generous and service is excellent.

So if you're like me and have lived in Sydney for a while, this place is a godsend. They have both east coast and west coast reubens, onion rings, buffalo wings, thick shakes, actual delicious bbq sauce, just about everything you miss. And on top of it all, the staff/owner here is so nice! They served me my hot chocolate and accidentally spilt a bit onto the saucer, and they quickly apologized and replaced the saucer, before my brain even registered what happened. Love! Anyways, this is a great place for any American cafe nostalgia.

I can tell this place is inspired by Katz's deli in NYC since the Massive Reuben they serve comes…read moreclose to the same size. It's seriously hard to find a good Reuben in Sydney. Like, really hard...for some reason, there's been an uptick of Reuben sandwiches being offered in Sydney that aren't Reuben sandwiches at all. Just because you use corned beef on a sandwich, it doesn't make it a Reuben. If you use beef brisket and sauerkraut on a sandwich and call it a Reuben, you're full of crap...looking at you Copper Mill. A classic Reuben is a hot sandwich composed of corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Russian or Thousand Island dressing, grilled between slices of rye bread. It originated in, you guessed it, America... Anyway, Reuben Republic started off as a food stall and then morphed into this brick and mortar shop. It's good too, as the sandwich is pretty legit. You can order an east coast or west coast Reuben (get the east) and you can get pastrami or corned beef. I personally prefer pastrami so I went with that. If you're hungry get the Massive Reuben (off the not-so-secret-menu) which is double portions of meat...my only gripe with this is there should be more sauce on it, but if you just ask for it they'll provide you some on the side. Service is top notch, and they have other offerings like shakes and salads. I would definitely come back, as it's been the most legit Reuben I've had in Sydney since Ruby & Rach is no longer around.

Sandwiches, sandwiches, SANDWICHES!!!…read more Like Joey from Friends, I love me some sandwiches. I believe this place opened less than a month ago, and I noticed it when I went to Single Origin one day and made a note to check it out. As its namesake states, this place is a simple sandwich shop. The interior is cozy, the people friendly, and the music sets the mood. Me gusta. The place is clean, straight to the point with natural and fresh ingredients, affordable (under $10!) and tasty to boot. They don't do sides except for the bread they serve during breakfast, and they also have salads if you don't want to have a sandwich. Let's be real here though, why would you go to The Sandwich Shop and not order a sandwich? Depending on the sandwich, you get to choose what kind of bread you'd like as well between rye, sourdough, and whole wheat. The sandwiches on tap are: Chicken Schnitzel The Sandwich Club Rare Roast Beef Tuna + White Bean Smoked Salmon Bagel The Original New York Reuben Pulled Pork The Ultimate Salad Sandwich You can also create your own sambo if you like. My friend and I ordered the Rare Roast Beef and The Original New York Reuben. If you like cheese, you will like the Rare Roast Beef. The Fontina Cheese used to top this was massive and flavourful. The roast beef could have been a bit more rare for my taste but it was still very good nonetheless. The Reuben...the reuben was great. I wouldn't call it the Original New York Reuben but that's not a bad thing. The Reuben served here was very high quality, as the beef is a thicker and juicier slice than you'd get with a New York Reuben. The cheese, sauerkraut and dressing were great as well. Definitely the best "Reuben" I've had in Sydney so far. If you like sandwiches you can't go wrong here. I'll have to come back to try the others.

I'm a self confessed Hong Ha fan…read more What more can I say, I work in the airline industry, the love of Hong Ha is something you're taught whilst in training. Airline crew & airport staff often frequent the queue stretching down the footpath of Botany Rd & for good reason. I had my first taste of Hong Ha when I was training to be a flight attendant & we were doing an order for lunch, everybody wrote down that they'd have a roll "they're the best" our trainer said, so we all put our lunch money in & an order got phoned through like a school lunch order. When lunch time finally rolled around we had these crunchy Vietnamese Rolls packed with flavour it left me wishing I'd ordered a second one. It's a family run business, & run with great structure. Not unlike a character out of a Seinfeld episode, & if you're a Seinfeld fan I think you might just know what character I may be referring to. ;-) "no soup for you" The pork rolls are great, I have to confess I'm a chicken roll fan at Hong Ha & it's my standard order. Sometimes I order with Chilli & sometimes without. You can be sure that if you have it with chilli you'll need a few tissues handy for the runny nose that will follow. The chilli certainly packs a punch, so these days I more than often order without to be sure I can taste all the other great flavours in the roll. I love the pickled carrot, & the sauce that is squeezed over the roll makes for some extra deliciousness. I sometimes don't eat my roll until I get home, so if you're travelling with it & don't want a soggy roll from all the sauce you can ask for a sachet of sauce to go. Just add it later to prevent your bread roll ending up with a little sog by the time you get to eat it. After all the crunch of the roll is half the fun. Hong Ha opens at 6.30am, I know this, as I have been known to land after an all night flight & pop in there bleary eyed in my uniform to buy a chicken roll to eat when I get home. Don't be afraid of the queue's as they move quickly, & with great precision. Hong Ha sell other delights, & you can even pick up a loaf of bread while you're there. Just don't forget to try a Pork Roll or a Chicken Roll of you're passing by.

This review is based on my 1 meal - which isn't very robust, I know, but it was not great…read more Service is fine - typical walk up, order, pay, find your own seat type of joint. The eggs Benedict were .... Interesting. A very crucial part of this dish is the hollandaise sauce which was - altered? - during my visit. It had the consistency and taste of Cheez wiz (canned cheese spread). It had no lemon flavor and the texture was too much. The poached eggs were fine, perhaps slightly undercooked, and the wilted spinach was soggy and reminiscent of boiled spinach with no seasoning. I guess the cheese wiz had enough punch to overcome everything but still the glob of flavorless wet spinach on top of the eggs was not very appetizing. Perhaps this place is great for other dishes - but don't order the Benedict unless you LOVE cheez wiz - then definitely order this dish.

I opted for a Chai Latte with Skim Milk. The server were incredibly nice and she even allowed me to pay for it with EFTPOS (doesn't it drive you nuts when they say cash only if it's under $10). The Chai Latte was very good quality and I left happy and ready to face the days challenges.
