Bacon Egg & Cheese Wrap
Rich S.

I almost always come to the this TSC after running in nearby Pocahontas State Park and I always leave satisfied. There's no more enjoyable way to rehydrate and refresh after a long run than with a cool, fresh and nutritious smoothie. Although I'd prefer a locally owned joint, I continue to come back here because quality and service are consistent and I know I'll leave satisfied. The breakfast wraps are surprisingly good too!

Hope you can see the people working in the store laughing as they emerge from the back right at 4pm to "close".

If I could give zero stars I would. I'm furious because we called ahead at which they confirmed their closing time. We got there about 15 to 20 minutes prior to their doors being closed. Don't even bother dropping by --especially if it is around their closing time because this shop obviously doesn't need our business! We weren't the only potential patrons as there were others who turned around as well once they saw me trying to open the door to find it locked. Ironically, the "open" sign appeared to be on and the chairs were still down so the people running the store decided to sit in the back and ignore anyone trying to buy smoothies, yet answer the phone. Interesting enough we saw the people emerge from the back at 4 pm as I write this review. I am FURIOUS! Do NOT go here!

I like this place. A friendly staff and a cozy interior makes this a nice escape for an after work, after dinner stop for s tasty smoothly. This was my first visit and I will be back. There is a small menu for sandwiches and I will try one on my next visit but the smooths was delicious.

Nothing wrong but a bit over priced but service was good and speedy. Easy to get to location once you find it at end of strip mall

Did a mobile order and the wait times are horrible. Completely overlooked. No acknowledgement or anything. Never again.

We arrived here about 45 minutes before close on a Thursday night, and parking was slim pickings,…read morebut we managed to snag a reasonably close spot. We were surprised by the size of the restaurant when we walked in. It seems smaller from the outside; not that it was huge, just deceiving. It reminded me of a homey Jason's Deli (IYKYK). The woman at the counter was helpful and kind. We had a few questions about some items on the menu, and she asked the kitchen staff anything that she didn't know offhand. We decided on the fried cauliflower for an appetizer; it was monstrously huge, and much more flavorful than I expected. The spices and textures on the plate added a lot to the dish's overall essence. I ordered the Rachel for an entree, and my partner ordered the Sharona. I subbed the chips for a side salad. The salad was tangy or tart, almost bitter. I didn't mind; I thought it was quite good. It is a lot of acidity if you are not expecting it. The Rachel was fantastic, except that the coleslaw had some onion bits mixed in. We are not onion fans in this household. Ha The Sharona would have been a better choice, as I much prefer pickles to oniony coleslaw. My partner said she really liked hers. We had half a sandwich each for leftovers the next day, and shared the leftover chips, since I finished off my salad the night before. The sandwiches heated up exquisitely in the oven at 325°F for 15 minutes. I felt that Susie's is a definite hidden gem, and I can recommend it to anyone who likes a well-made sandwich. I will be back to sample more of the menu and report back my findings at a future date.

It's like Perly's had a kid, sent them to VCU, and they opened a restaurant…read more The cauliflower appetizer was surprisingly good. The florets stayed crispy, the whipped feta, chilies, and pomegranate made an unexpectedly pleasant combo. The Reuben was well executed. The bread retained its sturdiness instead of the normal sponge like qualities you might find with other Reubens around town. The meat was melt in your mouth tender and every bite contained components of the sandwich, rather than the usual wrestling match of sliced meat in your mouth. The service was meh. It's counter service with sit down restaurant prices. Here's the funny thing: you are given a number for food to be delivered to your table. The waitress puts the food down on your table and directs you to a rolling cart where plates, napkins, etc. are BUT the waitress has to pass the rolling cart to bring you your food. Could we have not received appetizer plates and silverware when we checked out and were handed our drinks? I don't think anyone can get excited about Jason's Deli type service at lunch at Lemaire prices. If I had to choose a good time to suggest going to Susie's, go to Happy Hour on a sunny day and sit out on the patio

Look, c'mere lemmie tell you something .... The way I ate that sandwich was OBSCENE . The next time…read moreI get one I'm gonna have to eat it under a sheet to hide my shame. It was a weekday after work. I went to my homegirl's house because I missed her birthday I offered to take her out someplace nice. She said no way man and immediately said we were going to this sandwich shop. This was the only thing she wanted. So we were gonna veg out on her couch. Have a couple cocktails and whatever else and watch something on TV. And her new couch is the bees knees. For me, the sandwich was perfect. The bread was beautiful and crusty. I was afraid it was going to be toasted and too crusty, and I'd be fighting to bite it and my sandwich guts spilling out while cutting up my gums and the roof of my mouth like it's Captain crunch or something.. BUT NO! It was PERFECT to bite through. They load you up with the meat they're not stingy. And the sauces... BABY! The aïoli was fantastic. My only beef is that horseradish aioli needed a little bit more of a kick, but that's a personal problem. My friend got the chicken Caesar and I see why it's popular. It is so garlicky and delicious. I already have plans on what I'm gonna get next time I go and I don't live close so it's gonna take a special trip and I intend to make it.

First time trying Chimbo after hearing great things. I ordered the Tuscan Chicken. Here are the…read morepros: Friendly staff, wait time, points for creativity, and sandwich size (comes with chips)! Cons: While I understand the sandwich requires a strong vessel to hold the toppings, the bread was very thick and tough. The fillings did not match the bread proportion on this particular sandwich. The chicken breast was extremely overcooked and difficult to chew. Several pieces were leather-like in texture. Maybe chicken thighs would work better. I love the creativity of this sandwich and I get where they were trying to go, but the finished product was disappointing. A new line cook was being trained so perhaps this accounted for the miss. I've seen photos of the other sandwiches and they look delicious with better proportioned fillings. Not sure if I'll give it another try, but shoutout to all their fans in Church Hill.
