It wasn't packed at 5pm on a Sunday, but they were busy with to-go orders. I ordered a Michael Jordan (meatball sub) on a Dutch Crunch and it could've had more sauce because the meatball was a bit dry. My husband ordered Beast Mode (fried chicken and bacon) served with dirty sauce on a Dutch Crunch and it was the perfect combination in terms of flavor and the amount of ingredients. They don't have the cleanest outdoor seating, but we still sat outside to enjoy the weather. The staff were friendly and polite. Good spot to pick up a sandwich if you're craving one.

Sadly, I didn't any satisfaction this time either. -most of sammie was a crumbly Dutch crunch bread with lots of lettuce. There may have been a lot of love. The sandwich OTOH was a sad mix of pickles, tomatos, godfather sauce, melty provolone cheese, turkey, red onions, roast beef & salami that was messy to eat without the benefits of tasting good. 3.5 stars. Service: semi-quick. Quality: good. Quantity: not much meats. Got a "lollipop". Unknown when they discontinued giving small chips with sandwich.

I ordered the Italian combo with provolone and all the fixings on a Dutch crunch. The bread was delish! We don't have this type of bread back in Winnipeg so it was nice to get the chance to try something knew. It had a good amount of meat in it. Only thing is I didn't know you need to ask to get it toasted, which would have made it taste even better than it already does. Would recommend checking this place out.

Foods not great, but the real issue is the parking meters outside throughout the entire lot. Why…read moreare these here? Is it private property and these tickets are just empty threats? With most lots like this you can't be compelled to pay the tickets - only when the city issues tickets are they enforceable. The plaza is privately owned, and everything is leased out. So does San Leandro own it? Does the plaza owner think these meters are good for our city? I think the plaza owner will be happy to know that I am on the case and I've never lost a war in my life. I lose fights often, strategically, but never the grand scheme battles. Issues that affect my fellow citizens (like this) are a marathon, and I sprint through them. I promise these meters will be removed. If they refuse, I will demand an appropriate sacrifice from the plaza ownership. If the city somehow owns this plaza and installed these meters - Is San Leandro in need of our quarters that badly, and if so, why don't these even accept quarters? Only allowing electronic pay is certainly a decision. They probably expect us all to be robots in a few years and want to get their infrastructure ready to squeeze the oil out of us when that day comes. I used to get tickets in parking lots in Walnut Creek and would just tear them up. It never came back to haunt me. If I kept parking in those same lots I suppose they could eventually tow the car but I wouldn't give them the opportunity. I still like lowkey small businesses like this one, no frills or decorations, just show up for food. As far as sandwiches go I don't think this is my preference but they come across as very nice and consistent. Other people like this place, it seems. I don't like cold stack sandwiches unless some attention goes into the accents so I'm not the target audience here. The lady at the front was very friendly but this isn't really a sit down service place, they just give you the food.

I like to look for new spins on lattes to see what barista's are whipping up to make things unique. I came in thinking I was going to get a basic latte, but the Borgia Mocha caught my eye! I asked the cashier if it was a good choice and she recommended it. I was a little unsure how the two would blend and how much orange they would use in it, but it came out amazing! Honestly probably one of the top 10 unique mocha's I have tried and it was delicious! I loved the burst of refreshing orange that complimented the chocolate. The flavors danced on my tastebuds like two separate flavors that blended together as one. Each holding their own note that added value to the drink making it unique. I was instantly impressed and wish I found this on more menus! A classic mocha with a refreshing twist of orange was a pleasant surprise! I'm so glad I stopped in for a pick me up! I also loved all the art on the large walls and there looked to be plenty of tables and seating for people to eat and work at.

=== Incredible coffee and food. Great vibes ===…read more First, awesome experience. Second, I hate that I keep finding these experiences an HOUR away from where I live. Was meeting up with a friend from Berkeley and he found this spot in between the both of us. Pros and cons! + The coffee - holy shit. Got a cortado. And drank it without sugar it was so good. A touch of bitter (it's coffee - duh!) but so smooth, almost nutty but buttery at the same time. + Got a chicken salad sandwich. It came stacked HIGH with hints of sweetness and curry. Freshest produce. Honestly, I was hungry but could only eat half of it, it was so big. + Friend got a warmed cinnamon bun. Incredible. Yeasty, chewy almost crisp on the outside but pillowy soft on the inside. + Wide open space inside -- high ceilings, one big central area. Not tucked away spaces -- which might or might not match your preference. + Perfect amount of coffeehouse buzz. Music playing lowish in the background and lots of conversations. Just enough to quell my ADHD tendencies. * Honestly can't think of any negatives. Prices are a bit high but happy to pay it for such a quality experience. I think my cortado was decently priced -- maybe $6 or so? Sandwich was $18 or so but done really well and came with a bowl of soup (chips, fruit, and something else was an option instead of soup, but tomato bisque with a sandwich? Divine.) - An hour away from where I live but if you live anywhere East Bay, my curse is your blessing ;-)

I was also surprised they charge an extra $1 just to have the meat served on the side, which feels unnecessary. The service could also be better. There seemed to be a communication barrier with our server. I asked for a plate on the side, and she just nodded without saying anything, which made it unclear whether she understood the request. I'm someone who enjoys drinking the broth, and this wasn't the kind of soup I'd want to finish. There are better pho spots nearby with broth that tastes cleaner and more balanced. The steak was the highlight of the meal and the main reason I'm giving this place 2 stars.

The atmosphere was so inviting. Warm and calm, whether you were seated inside or out, you felt comfortable. There was nothing on the menus I would not recommend and the portions are not skimpy. I recommend you order different items so you can share and sample many of the items on the menu. Given the economic climate, the prices are reasonable.
