    One of the best House Steak Sandwiches I ever had!.... Here"s why: This is a small, no-frills spot that serves all the classics: subs, salads, and even teriyaki chicken plates. Nothing fancy, but it is clean and comfortable, exactly what you want from a neighborhood sandwich shop. The woman at the counter took my order, and even though I was the only person there when I walked in, I got in right before lunch. The wait was about ten minutes and it was worth it... When the steak sandwich came out, I was impressed right away. It was big, hot, and loaded. The bread was toasted just right, giving it a crisp bite without being too hard. The steak was tender and juicy, cooked in a sauce that gave it a unique flavor and texture I have never had in a steak sandwich before. Honestly, it might be one of the best I have ever had. It came packed with lettuce, mushrooms, avocado, tomato, peppers, and all the right ingredients. Every bite had the perfect mix of big portion tender meat, fresh toppings, and crunchy bread Captain's Sub Shop feels like a hidden gem. It is small, not crowded, and probably not a place a lot of people know about. Those are usually the best places, and this one definitely was. I will be coming back to try something different next time.

    If you claim that you are famous for your philly cheestakes know how to make them. I was driving by and saw the PHILY CHEESESTEAK banner by the road and decided to stop by. This is a small eatery that tries to please everyone with all types of food in the menu. Getting inside It smelled old and the air was stale. The table cover was sticky where I was sitting. The price of $12 was ok and the service was fast. What I got was not looking great. I ate one half and threw it in the trash can. Huge chunks of onions, doughy bread and the overall taste was mediocre at best. At 9am it was empty and the Yelp age was not claimed by the business which says a lot. Not recommended

    I'm addicted to their Phillycheese subs. Love the bell peppers, mushroom, cheese, steak and mayo on the bread. The sub is so soft and fresh. Cooked to order. The owner is so thoughtful, nice and polite. I just hate that they close so early and closed on weekends. I always have my husband and kids stop by to get me food because I'm always off when they are closed.

    Food was pretty good. I got a 6 inch Philly cheese stake sub fries and a drink. It was pretty good and hot when I received it. Fries was hot and crispy. Totally will come back

    The challenge was real, find a nearby local spot with decent submarine sandwich's. So I did what I…read morealways do, pull up Yelp. I was intrigued when I saw a spot that I had never heard of with a good yelp rating, I had to check it out. After reading a few of the reviews, and looking at the photographs I was sold. The Antidote delivery was close by, but let me tell you I had difficulty finding it. I want to make sure that others are aware of the challenge because it is definitely worth it. The issue is the signage. I was confident when I walked in and told Arthur, the gentleman behind the counter, that there was no sign, indicating Antidote Delivery, he politely corrected me. It turns out that next to the "market" sign there is an exclamation mark Which shows antidote delivery. My eyes went right over it and I never saw it, as a result I found myself circling around, trying to find the correct location. Once you find it, you may be hesitant to enter thinking that this is just a liquor store. In fact, this market has been here for 25 years and they prepare a fresh submarine sandwich that is delicious. So here is what you need to know upfront, the ambience is not desirable, so plan on a takeout. But if you're looking for a local business with a fresh delicious submarine sandwich, I would give this a try. Arthur was very kind to explain that they do deliveries within 5 miles for $2.99. So if you live within 5 miles you can order your sandwich and have it delivered. It's convenient because it's also a liquor store. You can order anything else at the same time and have that included for that nominal fee. It's always nice to support local places, this feels like a family business but I didn't ask so I'm not sure. One thing I'm certain of, I will be returning.

They do catering, delivery and 3rd party orders. Yesterday, around 4:15 pm, my son was in Northridge and he and his friends felt like eating their freshly made food from scratch. They make their food right in front of you. You can see how their employees work adjacent along with management by their side. Team work makes a dream work. I told him to bring me something on his way back home. We all got different things. 1 BBQ Tri Tip Sandwich ($13.95), plus a small side salad with healthy veggies. Next, we got 1 Sweet Chili Crunch Chicken Sandwich with a small side salad ($12.25), 1 Chimichurri Steak Sandwich ($13.95), also with small salad, and the sauce on the side. The Ben Sandwich with a side of fruit ($7.95), & last, but not least a Grilled Cheese Sandwich with a small salad on the side ($6.25). The food was plentiful, fresh and delicious. Affordable prices for their portions. It has a parking lot that is shared with other businesses and a gender neutral restroom. Restaurant was very clean, and when my son got there, the food was already waiting to be picked up. It was 4:25pm They are known for their hand crafted Focaccia bread, freshly baked cookies, nice sized bowls, salads, soups and sandwiches. Thank you all very much. Next time when I am in the area, I will have a sit down meal.:-))

So it seemed fitting to honor both of them and it satisfied my craving. The catered memorial looked great but it was difficult to make a proper plate. I always crave matzo ball soup. Luckily I had my fan to help cool off my soup. I did add a little salt and pepper. Other than that it was total comfort. $15 We shared a club sandwich and got French fries instead. All the condiments, Russian dressing, ranch come in prepackaged little containers. Ranch tasted fresh and homemade. I used a little of the Russian dressing. Is that a Brent's thing? $22 + $3 for French fries. I wanted a little sweet and got the blueberry cheesecake. That was the best cheesecake ever. Actual blueberries inside the cheesecake. So creamy and delicious. $11 Pickles are always my favorite. I got bagel chips with my matzo ball soup. I ordered corned beef and cabbage for my 99 year old mom. She said she didn't like the cabbage, no taste. She's 99 ‍ It's been a while since I was there. It feels the same. Booths and tables. Same decor. Our server Laura was super sweet and patient. Helpful in our decision making. Ricardo cracked me up because he brought a small soup container for my friend's cabbage soup. She was a little perturbed it was too small. Ricardo insisted it would fit and it did PERFECTLY.
