Our Airbnb was directly across from it, and we could see the lines at all hours with mostly locals, which was a good sign. I got the prosciutto and truffle sandwich, and it was dreamy truffle bliss. It is amazing that something as simple as bread, prosciutto, and truffle spread can taste so good. My husband got a salami and pecorino sandwich which was more his speed. He really enjoyed his sandwich and finished it in no time. Prices are cheap enough that we could've split another sandwich if we had had the room, but there was no need. The only downside to this place is the lack of seating. The seating in front of the sandwich shop actually belongs to the bar next door so we weren't able to sit there. We were able to find a public bench on the street to enjoy our sandwiches, but be prepared if you're carrying a lot of luggage around with you like we were.

Line is out the door but considering its the size of a closet, that isn't hard to do lol. Service isn't overly friendly as they are trying to turn over the orders asap.

Like maybe a young Harry Potter could appreciate the space, but a fat guy like me? Need some elbow room. Its actually kind of cool inside with a lot of kitsch and random stuff (see the Batmobile picture). Try it when you come visit to see if the Tower is still Leaning.

I am not either of these anymore but I used to be so I supported them for this reason. Their V and/or gluten free menu is huge! My main complaint was that I was placed near the front entrance and a family near the back decided it was acceptable to let their six kids runaround crazy away from them at the front. Half of them were coughing and obviously sick but they got into a super rambunctious game of tag that involved them crawling UNDER my table and lots of screaming. I don't mind children but this was ridiculous. Not one staff or parent seemed to care. Needless to say it kinda ruined the evening. Otherwise this place was entirely decent even if the waiter brought me hot lemon tea when I ordered limoncello. Apparently I say it wrong.
