The meatballs are pretty decent, but I have made better ones with a recipe I got online for best meatballs ever. If you are on the UES and need to redeem your MealPal credits, this is a good choice to try once. The guy who worked there was nice and at my request allowed me to try the truffle sauce they sold there for $20 for a large container. I guess this is what they use for truffle pasta. However, there is no way I could use all of it in 7 days so I didn't buy it. The sauce was pretty trufflely.

It was good, and I think they have a menu with enough variety for you to find something that you'll enjoy (also some vegetarian sandwiches as well) but I don't know that I'll find myself feeling the need to come back (but also I'm not HUGE on sandwiches in general). The bread was good, fairly fresh and had a nice dusting of flour on it, the meat was a solid portion, and the quality of ingredients was good/fair. I think if I lived closer I would definitely give them another shot. People really seem to like them and this is one of a few of their locations, which are all successful!

I can't emphasize how excited I am for them to be here, bringing one of our best neighborhood bites to a new neighborhood which desperately needs more affordable and diversified options. This modern Vietnamese sandwich spot offers banh mi inspired by other East and Southeast Asian flavors. I personally like reaching for their regular banh mi and their lemongrass chicken banh mi. You would be remiss if you didn't get the banh mi or kimchi fries, and their monster rolls which are a newer creation but are essentially giant lumpia with any and all of the sauces they have available. Another plus is that they have pretty creative drinks, like their refreshers and virgin mojitos, for a nice little drink that isn't too calorie-dense depending on what you get. Welcome to the neighborhood Joju and I wish you all the success.

Drinks were spot on and I really enjoyed the flan with the coffee, great for an evening pick me up. The papaya salad was very light and felt fresh and not over soaked.
