★★★★★ 5.0 Erick Gonzalez · Jan 2026

I went in because of the hype. But I was the first person there on Tuesday morning. Got the buffalo chicken and cheesesteak Cooper cheese. I only ate a quarter of each because they’re big as hell. My tastebuds wanted me to finish eating both sandwiches entirely lol so since I ate a half a sandwich it was just half cheesesteak Cooper cheese and the other half buffalo chicken. The buffalo chicken is cubed pieces of breast meat, so don’t think you’re gonna get thinly sliced cheesesteak but in a chicken form, which is what I thought. So it’s very filling! It doesn’t have an overpowering buffalo taste which is great and I’m a person who loves spicy food and buffalo sauce is no problem. But I think they did this just right, so anybody who’s not a fan of buffalo can still get this and enjoy it gr

I am not a melt sandwich person, but after my 1st bite, I couldn't stop myself from finishing the entire sandwich. It's delicious with very nice service.

What an awesome place! We got three “design your own” grilled cheese sandwiches taking our cues from some of the existing combos. The rye bread is fantastic. Fresh ingredients in perfect proportions, friendly staff. You can’t ask for much more. I’ll be back.
