Both were good, but we were not necessarily impressed. The staff were very friendly, the shop is super cute with plenty of seating and parking available. We were unfortunately not huge fans of the taste, but I think they might still be worth a try since everyone has different taste buds!!:)

I went with the pepperoni + pastrami sandwich, and it hit every craving without weighing me down. Fresh, stacked right, and one of those sandwiches that makes you sit back and go, "Alright... this was the right call." The service sealed the deal. Super friendly, patient, and genuinely warm. They let me take my time ordering, didn't rush a thing, and even brought the sandwich out to me--small touches that make a place stand out. Great food. Great hospitality. And definitely the kind of spot I'd come back to anytime I need real fuel before hitting the trail.

We had subs and they are large and they definitely do not skimp on the meat and toppings, however feel like it is quite pricey for a sandwich. I will be 100 percent transparent probably won't be back just because of the price. Subs were fine but that's it, I could get a better sub elsewhere and maybe even save some money.

So great to stumble on this find for a delicious sandwich for lunch. I got the pork banh mi which…read morewas one of the best I've had. The pork was soft and juicy with a few crunchy edges, the carrots were tangy, the bread was fresh and not tough and kept good balance with the amount of sandwich filling. The $20 price was high relative to where I'm from (Midwest) but it WAS a great sandwich... Also got the potatoes wedges. Not crunchy, but still delicious. Great casual lunch spot! The guys behind the counter were attentive hosts.

I had high hopes for this place based on the strong reviews, but unfortunately it didn't live up to…read moreexpectations. I stopped in for lunch and ordered a couple of sandwiches to go, thinking it would be a good way to try the food before committing to a larger purchase like steaks, pasta, or other items from the shop. The sandwiches came out to $42 for two, which felt pretty steep. While I waited, I looked around the store at some of the other products, but nothing really stood out to me, and the service felt a bit underwhelming. The sandwiches themselves were just okay--nothing particularly memorable for the price. A few hours later my stomach also felt a bit uneasy, which didn't leave the best impression. Overall, the experience fell short of what I was expecting. Perhaps I just caught them on an off day, but based on this visit, I probably won't be returning.

When she told me $32 It hit kind of different. But when I got to the beach took one bite of that pastrami sandwich? Mmmmmmm... Tell your girlfriend to get her OWN.

The bread was nice and crunchy and the tri tip itself was tender, so it started off promising. However, the chimichurri tasted more like pesto and didn't have the fresh, tangy flavor I expected. What completely ruined it was finding THREE hairs in my sandwich. I included photos for transparency. That immediately made me lose my appetite. To clarify, I was not asking for a refund. I live about 30 minutes away and had taken the sandwich to go, so returning wasn't practical. I did attempt to call, but the calls went straight to voicemail, which was full. I also replied to the text message I received with my receipt, but never received a response. I'm simply sharing my honest experience. I would have appreciated acknowledgment or concern rather than being told it wasn't possible.

I can never taste the cheese on the sandwiches, and if they don't give you enough sauce the bread is so dry. On this occasion we were near one so I said let's give it a try. I got their version of a chicken parm in the Dutch crunch bread with added tomato and lettuce. They also added the Ike's sauce which was weird because it's not listed on the menu and when the man read back to me what would be on my sandwich he didn't mention it. Thankfully it wasn't overbearing so I barely noticed it. But I don't know if they are rationing the marinara but there was barely any on the sandwich. The fried chicken also has no flavor or texture. So even though the sandwich has plenty on it it just lacks flavor. My husband got a BLT with avocado. Again it was just fine, nothing special and it lacked flavor as well. For $12 - $15 per sandwich I always want more from it. The sandwiches are a decent size and can be split into 2 meals. So the price is fair. But I just wish there was more going on with them flavor wise. We parked in the Trader Joe's lot behind the store. This place is also walking distance from plenty of hotels.

When we walked in, we were asked to join the waitlist. we waited MAYBE 5 minutes if that and seated at a booth.

I ordered the spam an eggs, potato cakes, and sourdough toast and jelly with a cup of hot tea. everything was amazing!

This place does breakfast, and the American side of the menu which I got to taste, was executed well. I'd go back for that. For those curious about the Filipino aspect, I wouldn't have high expectations. Their lumpia wasn't super special. Compared to the thousands of lumpia I've had in the US and across the world, they were just OK. For the price they were charging per piece, I wasn't the biggest fan. They didnt blow me away in flavor. They were also a bit burnt/ over fried for my liking. I also ordered the pork belly fried rice. Definitely Filipino inspired, with the adobo inspired sauce. Both the pork itself and the sauce were sweeter than I expected. The fried rice as well was disappointing. It was neither Filipino style for breakfast (sinangag) or a typical Chinese fried rice. It was an Americanized heavy-on-the-butter style. When it comes to viewing with a Filipino lens, it was a bit boring. I dont mind twists on Filipino food. There's plenty of it and plenty I've enjoyed, including on my numerous trips to the motherland. Unfortunately, the ones here were a bit underwhelming. I'd go back here for the amazing staff and limiting myself to the American traditional breakfast. For those hoping for a Filipino breakfast that shares more authentic flavors, I'd keep very low expectations.

After a long visit to the aquarium, I searched for a place with gluten free food bc my husband has…read moreCeliac. It was a nice walk to the marina on a beautiful sunny day. We met Raul at the counter. He is by far the most friendly, kind and informed restaurant staff (about gluten sensitivity, gluten allergy and what it is to have Celiac) we've ever met. He explained how he prepares the gluten free dough separate, bakes it separate and plates it separate. Based on Raul's genuine concern and knowledge, my hubby decided to try it. Our family had various different sandwiches. (I had the very delicious Vegetariano.) We all agreed they were THE BEST SANDWICHES WE'VE EVER HAD...EVER...ANYWHERE...(mike drop).The freshly baked bread was incredible, all of the ingredients were fresh, even the side salad was amazing!!! The service was straight out of the old days, when people actually had pride in their work and genuinely cared about how you were treated in their establishment. We wish every restaurant that offers gluten free options could have someone as friendly, kind and knowledgeable as Raul. The ambiance was very cute/quaint inside and out. It was a beautiful sunny day so we sat outside to enjoy the sunshine and listen to the sea lions. Raul came out to check on us and we could not thank him enough for his amazing food and hospitality. When we said how much we enjoyed the gluten free bread, he told us he sold the flour (from Italy) inside. My adult son immediately bought some for us to bake gluten-free bread at home. (We've since baked gluten-free bread and it was just as amazing) I've told everyone I know about this amazing place. It has the trifecta of what makes us want to return frequently: *****Food *****Service *****Ambiance Until next time Piccolo!

Note: The restaurant doesn't have its own bathroom but there is a public restroom across the street. The public restroom was a bit gross when I went in (lots of flies swarming) and did not have a diaper changing table.
