Surprised this place is still in business. Went in today to get sandwiches for my family. Good luck ordering anything with fish because, although it’s on the menu, they do not have fish. Ended up getting two cubanos, (both came out cold and were prepared without gloves), and a meatball sub. Got a smoothie too, advertised as a “fruit smoothie” and watched them blend ice and boxed smoothie mix. Smoothies are super concentrated and not fresh at all. Got home to eat the meatball sub, and found this in the middle of the sandwich. Went back to let the owner know, and he took the piece of plastic, threw it away and said “i’m sorry.” Didn’t offer any reparations, refunds, or anything. Highly disappointed. Place is dirty too.

Stopped in for a pretty late lunch earlier today, and they served up a great sub (Blackened Turkey with Chipotle Gouda)in blazing speed. Really friendly as well.

Subs were amazing!!!!! Hands down the best Italian sub I've had in a long time. The service was great. You could tell they actually enjoyed their jobs. Definitely will be our new normal spot.

I went today for the first time because I read they had Cuban sandwiches plus I’ve heard great things about this place. Anyway, the Cuban tasted just like one you would get in Florida. It was pressed to perfection. Everything was on point!! Oh, and I grabbed a homemade chocolate chip cookie too that was delicious! I will be back✌️

I ordered a Cuban and it was cold, the man who mad it surly, and the cashier literally said, "you can get it yourself" when we ordered drinks instead of using any type of politeness. The drinks were hot. You'll sit outside constantly waving flies away from your sandwich.
