    Wow, what a hidden gem!! Cute little shop in an industrial park, with some amazingly delicious sandwiches! Super friendly, and engaging staff. Quality meats and cheeses. Highly recommend!!

    Chicken salad on squaw
    Michael B.

    It's a small shop in an industrial part of the city. The inside is pretty tight and if there are more than 5 people inside, it's going to be tight. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich but they were out of sourdough. Our order came out.... They were out of brown bags. They were out of their own name. The order took a bit longer than expected...around 20 minutes. My daughter ordered a tuna melt. I was hoping to have found a gem but I found some coal.

    Austin Smoke House

    Foods takes a bit longer as they made it fresh. Tasted great, small deli feel. Wife had the South Cliff melt & I had the Austin smokehouse. Why one star loss? Size portion, wife's sandwich only had a little chipotle mayo (it makes the sandwich) and it took a while to be acknowledged when we first got there, lost in ordering. Really wished I could have put 4.5 stars

    The Courtney Caprese!
    Yanil R.

    Long overdue review because oh my gosh, the Brown Bag knows sandwiches! My favorite is the Jay's Melt, but I tried the Courtney's Caprese last week and it was also delicious - the crispy bacon was a great touch. Friendly service every time I visit and the dining room is always clean - can't wait to be back!

Don't ever go there. Just kidding, sorry Cups -- but seriously, this place is OFF THE CHARTS! I had the Ahi Salad, Lox Benedict, French Toast, Cups Omelet, and the Divorced Eggs, and every single dish was incredibly pleasing to the mouth. My mouth is watering just thinking about each one. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. And the iced coffee deserves its own shout-out. They even had coffee ice cubes so your drink doesn't get watered down. Genius -- and really, really good! The staff was super attentive, friendly, and on top of everything. I hope they pool the tips together because every single person earns their keep. And speaking of that -- don't forget to tip the cooks, too! The food coming out of that kitchen deserves some love. Cups Cafe, you nailed it. Great food, great people, great experience, great ambiance. Five stars all day long. Just don't tell too many people... I still want to get a table next time.

We sat outside, even in the heat it was ok. The portions were much bigger than I anticipated. This is not bad. Lol Both of our dishes were phenomenal. The only thing that lacked were the zucchini pancakes. They were extremely sour, and not in good way. Also very, dense and gummy. Otherwise everything else was great. We will stop here sometime soon, and again on our AZ-CA CA-AZ adventures.

There's a popular chain of Bahn mi sandwiches where you get plenty of bread and even a fair amount of lettuce but if you were hoping for a sandwich full of meat and daikon and flavor well skip them and head to this place! Only the big boys were finishing a whole sandwich. We had a vermicelli bowl with chicken and shrimp spring rolls. We didn't finish because we got full before the plates were empty. The tastes are bright and full of flavor. The peanut sauce was a hit for the spring rolls and I had both fish sauce and ginger sauce. The fish sauce is to liquid to really cling but what flavor. The ginger has a superb front taste and an ending that brings the heat. Ingredients are totally fresh and quality. Servings are plentiful and prices are reasonable. Sure friendly and approachable staff ready to guide you into gastronomical bliss. And the restaurant though small and unassuming in a strip mall is clean and pleasant. Bon apetite

However, yesterday I ordered shrimp spring rolls and they were tasteless. No mint, basil or pickled carrots to speak of. The noodles in these rolls are typically very thin but these were like spaghetti. I ordered 3 orders (9 spring rolls) for a gathering and I was mortified after raving so much about them. Absolutely tasteless. Please go back to your original recipe. I don't want to lose this place.

    My first time trying Aspen Mills and my review falls somewhere between a 3.5 and a 4. For good…read moremeasure I'll give them a 4 but jury is still out on this spot for me. I think my expectations for this spot were a bit high as the reviews on here for the most part are glowing reviews and when I found some foodie influencers reviewing this spot on social media, they really hyped up the sandwiches. So much so it finally encouraged me to give this spot a try. I came during Christmas week which I do understand is a crazy week, especially for a spot like this as they seemed to have a lot of breads and desserts flying off of the shelves. So maybe their attention to detail was a little off? I came in to grab a sandwich for myself and my family. Went with three different varieties. I got the prime cut and then ordered the Tuscany and the my cousin Vinnie. My family said their Italian style sandwiches were just so so. I kind of felt the same way about my prime cut but I did like mine a little more than they liked theirs. Initially when I came in I really wanted to try their tuna sandwich with cheese jalapeño bread as this was one of the sandwiches highly reviewed but when I asked the gal about the freshness of the tuna, she let me know they make it every other day. I really appreciated her honesty, which is another reason I'm playing the 4 stars. Some places just BS you or tell you what you want to hear but I'm glad she was truthful to say, every other day. It's not that this is "bad" but with tuna I get weird and only could order it if it was fresh that day. So I skipped. Went with the prime cut which was a roast beef type of sandwich. The prime cut sandwich itself was an overall 3/5. My biggest critique was that the bread tasted super dry, almost stale? Maybe that's the style of that darker bread...I've never ordered it before but it wasn't for me and just made the sandwich a bit too dry, even after getting extra sauce. Despite the bread issue, I loved the rare roast beef and the zucchini was a lovely touch in the sandwich. Unique and I really liked that! Horseradish cream was tasty too, on the mild side but good. Overall the bread just didn't seal the deal for me. I'd come back here but not as a first choice sandwich option. I will say the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The store was clean and good signage for the sandwiches. Seemed like a popular place as lots of people in and out. A cute little perk is that the sandwiches come with a small side of potato salad and a pickle. Love that. The potato salad was actually delicious, 5/5. So random I know, but I loved it and I'd pay for a side of that for sure.
