If you want an authentic and delicious chopped cheese sandwich NYC Chop Cheese is the place to go! From the moment my son and I walked in, we were greeted by friendly, Shawntail from behind the counter. It was my first time trying a chopped cheese sandwich and it did not disappoint. It was delicious from the first bite to the last. We will definitely be back!

I've never been to New York or eaten a chopped cheese before, so I went in blind. The chopped cheese thing was FIRE. I love warmed-up sandwiches, and that's what this was, pretty much. Think like a fancier Philly Cheesesteak, I guess. The service was great. The woman at the front was very helpful and nice. The atmosphere was nice as well. I'm definitely coming back.

I lived and worked in NYC Metro for over 8 years and this place is 10,000% legit! Frankly, I was shocked I didn’t run into WuTang member or two here. Price to Portion: Massive portions and VERY affordable for the sheer amount of food! Quality to Price: They have mastered their sandwich kung fu and we are better as a society for it! Epic quality for the price! Whether you are a Cali native, visiting LA or OC counties for work or vacation… add this to your MUST EAT list! Save yourself the hassle and airfare to NYC… come to LBC and NY Chopped Cheese instead!!! 20 out of 5 stars

I can see why they have 5 stars. The chicken sandwich was made fresh and tasted sooo good. The curly fries were delicious. The island wave lemonade was not too sweet, it was perfect.
