    The Worker in a wrap, so good

    This place is a real deal homemade sandwich spot literally like your mom would make. Bread is so fresh and the meats are stacked to the sky! Get your favorite sandwich all the way and enjoy! We go there weekly because they are truly the best sandwich spot in Clearwater/St Pete/ Tampa

    Moms Chef's Salad

    We came by to try a new sandwich shop while in the area. It is a bit small inside with a few tables. I am glad we got there early. We ordered at the counter a cuban and a chef salad and drinks are all in cans and bottles. I thought the salad was a bit small for the price but did have a nice amount of meat and cheese. The cuban sandwich did have pulled pork and was pretty good. They stay busy with many take out orders. Overall it was ok. A fun restaurant celebrating 40 years.

    This place is close by where I work and have been there twice so far, both times great. The first time I had the Mothers Special and this time the Worker, both were 8" sandwiches and both nicely packed with the goods. However, ordering the Worker I skipped the mayo and forgot to add oil and vinegar instead, a bit dry but that was my bad. Reading some of the other posts I need to order the meatball next. It's my Wednesday lunch trip. As far as service, there's three behind the counter taking care of business and quick to fill orders. Prices are fair with 12oz can drinks. Beware, they do close at 2pm.

    Your Mother's Special

    We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday after doing some Yelp research, well worth it! Simple but satisfying menu options, all fresh and made to order, fast and friendly service. Small but clean interior seating so you can sit and enjoy your lunch or take it to go.

    Nothing fancy, but I always get good subs here for a decent price. Really like the bread they use for the subs.

    Great sandwich place, and fast. Perfect for lunch when you only have so much time. They've been here forever and there's a reason for that.

    Love Love Love Tasty Pho!…read more I love a lot of dishes here. Everything is scratch made here. Even the hot chili oil & boba balls. LOL The dining room is very comfy & they play a lot of groovy techno music. It's a very upbeat good vibes place OuiOui. Anyhoo, I love coming here to stuff my face often, especially with their grilled pork chops OMG! :)... The other day I was here, Sir Hubbers knew I was here & text me & ask me to come immediately, he needed me to sign some papers... I had just ordered the Pork Chops & I had to get my pork chop packed up to go! I didn't even get to take one bite! I told him soon as I pack up my pork chops to go, I will come save you. So, I go over there & sure enough, he eats ALL my pork chops! Not half, ALL my pork chops. LOL Then, sends me to go get him pasta! (See photo of our ridiculous text conversations) LOLOLOLOL So, if you think we are eating too many pork chops we do not care. This is the pork chop hill we have decided to die on. LOL If you like pork chops, believe me, you have NEVER had any pork chops as good as these babies. WOZA! And if you don't believe me, that's okay too. We are slaying this Pork Chop hill all the way OuiOui. Leave us to our Pork Chop Heaven baby! To the death do us part OuiOui. lol Highest Recommendations.

    Pho was outstanding. My daughter and I split the Pho Ga while my husband had the beef filet pho and…read moremy son had his own chicken pho (it was too much for him but he won't admit it). The broth was delicious, full of aromatics, heavy on the onion but it was definitely to our liking. Server was friendly and attentive; he was also quick to clean up exiting tables. The shop is small but the dining area is spacious and open with plenty of seating options. We ordered dessert to go- the flan and the waffle (I don't remember the name but it wasn't the taro waffle)!!

    Was looking for a good pho spot in st Pete and heard about Special Pho and their fresh noodles…read more We ordered both the chicken pho 3/5 and beef pho 4/5 The broths were flavorful without being overly salty, I prefer the beef broth over chicken . Next time I would try to order chicken pho with the beef broth as it had more rich flavors . The chicken wings 5/5 were one of the surprises of the meal crispy, well-seasoned, and came with a sweet chili sauce. The fresh spring rolls 4/5 were exactly what I was craving peanut sauce was great. For drinks, I loved the mango smoothie 5/5 It tasted like real mango instead of syrup. I also tried the artichoke drink 5/5 which brought back memories because it's something you don't see everywhere as it's homemade with fresh artichoke and glass jelly and chia seeds, The pandan waffle 4/5 was warm, soft on the inside, slightly chewy on the outside, and not overly sweet. I asked for some syrup on the side to eat with the waffle The service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and attentive, even provided scissors for the kids pho and syrup on the side for waffle. Small touches like that really stand out.

At the outset, the server spilled a container of salad dressing on one of our party. Ok. No problem. Accidents happen. I ordered broiled salmon. The server asked which side I wanted. I inquired as to the choices. She listed them (fries, slaw, salad, etc). I ordered a salad. I enjoyed my meal. (One member of our party also ordered the salmon. She said hers was very overcooked and dry). After we finished our entrees, the server asked if anyone wanted dessert. I ordered a apple crisp to go. After paying the bill, I looked at the itemized charges. I was not happy to see that I had been charged $3.00 for the "side" salad. When I asked the server about it, she said that the salad was a "premium" side--ergo, the $3.00). This should have been revealed to me prior to ordering it. By the way, the to-go apple crisp was a whopping $10.99!! I sure hope my husband likes it!!
