Based on positive Yelp reviews, we stopped here after a morning at Gateway National recreation area…read moreto pick up sandwiches to take on our flight out of EWR. The boards listing all their unique sandwiches (plus salads, meatballs, etc) was almost overwhelming and I wished I could choose several. They offer hot and cold with every possible ingredient and combo or create your own. They offer mini heroes every day for $5. They're plenty big! The full heroes are HUGE. A roll is big. Even regular sandwich bread is a large sandwich. They also carry all sorts of treats and Italian staples and gourmet items. Best of all, every single employee was SO nice and cheerful, and they worked so quickly, even as the small location filled up with locals and regulars. We felt so lucky to have found it. As one of us went through TSA with their sandwich, the agents said "what smells so good?" And teased they would have to confiscate it. (They did not and I had the best food on the plane!)

After being seated at my table and waiting nine minutes for any kind of service or acknowledgment, I got up and walked out.

I walk into a small shop, the large menu is front and center. I read on line what I wanted, the #6 - The How You Doin You're not finding this sandwich name in LA! This spot is pure Brooklyn, with some great sounding sandwiches. Trust me, I looked over the menu and wanted to try everything on the menu. The #6 was a fantastic choice, Fresh Brooklyn Italian bread with a perfectly Fried Chicken Cutlet and topped with Roasted Peppers, Fresh Mozzarella and completed with an Oil Balsamic drizzle. Cash only spot, that's ok. Take my money! I'm coming back for the Thursday Special, the Homemade Roast Beef and Melted Fresh Mozzarella sandwich. (How awesome does that sound?!)

They're known amongst my family for bringing out this ENORMOUS bread that seems larger than anyone can eat but you're surprised not only by the fact that it's hollow inside but also how quickly it disappears when you're enjoying the fabulous meze platter (a variety of dips that you can enjoy). My grandma got the lamb shish kabob (which was huge) and my boyfriend got the lamb adana. I got the mixed grill. Everything tasted delicious and we were very full with still more food to take home after we ate our fill. The portions are large and the staff is friendly and attentive. Our waitress came by a couple times to check on us and staff was quick to take away plates we were finished with and wipe down the table in between so we didn't have crumbs everywhere after the bread course. The interior of this place is also really lovely. They decorated for Valentine's Day and also put on the Olympics on TV, though none of the seasonal decor nor entertainment felt like it overpowered the cozy atmosphere of this place. My favorite part of it is that the seating feels incredibly cozy because you can sit in a nook with beautifully designed cushions arranged around the bench for comfort and style. Our meal was great as always and I'm excited to come back again!

Combined with their hot bubble bread is a treat. Shrimp casserole (my favorite dish there) comes out bubbling hot. You have to be careful not to burn your mouth and let it cool off a bit. Very tasty and the cheese melted on top gives it an extra touch. The crêpe for dessert was perfect. The fruit served with it was deliciously sweet. I'm lucky to have this place in my neighborhood.
