I ordered a chicken parm sub, which I have ordered before. The container was so dirty with marinara sauce that is immediately turned me off. But, they are busy, so let's let it slide. The problem is inside- the chicken was so dry, and it was assembled with haste, and looked sloppy. The presentation was sloppy, the box was sloppy and the taste was sloppy. They used to only take so many orders, and their quality was on point. They have slipped. Time to right the ship before they expand to Tampa, or this will be another story of a fantastic business going out of business. Slow down, and get back to what made you famous: the food.

I saw Violet Stone on social media commercial and it looked good on the commercial. Went there…read moreexcited to get a cheesesteak like I saw on the commercial. I ordered the cheesesteak with onions. I also ordered some cheese sticks. My wife ordered a pizza. The following is one guy's opinion: 1. My cheesesteak with onions was terrible. They used a weird type of bread with sesame seeds on it. It was kind of hard too. Also, it was way too much bread for a cheesesteak in my opinion. It was a really bad choice to wrap cheesesteak with. The chopped onions on the cheesesteak looked gray. The whole thing just looked unappetizing. As I feared, the bread doesn't compliment the cheesesteak. I only ate about a quarter of it and took the rest to go. To their credit, the restaurant does have a sign that says if the food is a flop, to return it. I didn't. I don't like telling restaurants that their food sucks. I just don't come back. I took it home hoping to find a homeless person to give it to, but didn't see anyone so I threw it away. 2. My wife is a cheese stick fanatic. She's always looking for the perfect cheese stick. However, the cheese sticks here also were disappointing. The breading on it was too thick and didn't taste good. I think it was a bit overdone on the outside, but not done on the inside. The cheese inside was not melted or close to being soft or slightly melted. It was the consistency of a piece of cheese that was left out at room temperature, soft, but not melty as a cheese stick should be. It was merely a warm piece of cheese wedge covered in a breading that also didn't have much flavor. I think it's because they were overly done. They were on the darker bitter side that you get from frying something too hot and fast yet the cheese was not soft. Were they frozen and that's why they cooked that way? I don't know, seems that way. 3. My wife liked her pizza. I had a slice because the cheesesteak was a fail for me. The pizza was ok. Nothing special. They do their pizza "well done". For some it may be too well done. My wife likes her pizza well done so she liked it. The place was also expensive for what it is and I felt kinda cheated for spending almost $70.00 (not including tip) for two drinks, a crappy sub, a small pizza, and some cheese sticks. I went, I saw, I conquered, but won't be back. Sorry violet stone. Go check out your competition and change some things.

5 STARS! Tiki Tim's…read morePub & Grill is a fantastic find. I see in another review a Yelper complains that it's not a tiki bar, but if you understand proper English, they're not claiming to be a tiki bar. The name says Pub & Grill. The bar's OWNER is Tiki Tim. That's his nickname, not a description of the bar. Yes there are some tiki type decorations, and yes, the place is actually a dive bar, But they have an absolutely fantastic kitchen so Tiki Tim's is well worth visiting. I ordered the Loaded Crab Cake Bloody Mary ($26.99). This exceptional Bloody Mary comes with a Bloody Mary Chaser! The chaser had 6 green olives. The Bloody Mary itself had: 4 pcs Celery 2 slices of Bacon 3 Mini tomatoes 4 lg shrimp 1 Crab cake burger It's a meal as well as a drink. Nice kick, too. The menu has several different Bloody Mary options. I also ordered the Blue Crab Fries ($14.51). A huge dollop of blue crab dip on seasoned fries. Enough dip for all the fries. Wing Man Gary (USAF pilot, retired) had the Tiki Burger ($14.51). Gary reports the burger was good but not exceptional. The menu has some fantastic offerings, I'll be back to try more!

The roll was super fresh and had a nice sponginess to it. I got the cheesesteak with the onion, pepper, and Cooper's Sharp cheese and it was out-damn-standing. My wife wanted to try the crab cake but the bartender (the fabulous Carolyn, aka London) sold her on the fresh-caught snapper sandwich. She got it blackened and said it was the best snapper sandwich she's had in a long time. The bar and grill is far from pretentious and is a couple steps up from dive bar status. Prices are fair and service was top-notch. Overall this place backs up its Yelp rating. I'll be back for those crab cakes soon!

When I got my pizza, there was NO Fresh Mozzarella on it despite me giving clear instructions over the phone to the guys taking my order that I wanted to ADD FRESH MOZZARELLA to my MARGARITA PIZZA. He read it back to me to confirm. Either they do not carry 'Fresh Mozzarella' or they simply do not care enough to complete an order with ONE customization. (Mind you, a Traditional Margarita Pizza has Fresh Mozzarella as one of its main ingredients which is false advertising in itself when Slice of the Burg ONLY sells revolting Cheese Pizzas with a smidge of tomato and a pinch of basil and NOT 'Margarita' Pizzas. Terrible TERRIBLE service. Is it really that hard for a restaurant to get a SIMPLE order right? All that is on my pizza is basic shredded mozzarella, a PINCH of shredded basil, and some thinly sliced tomatoes I can hardly see or taste. This is nothing but a HORRIBLE cheese pizza with some garnish. DISGUSTING! No flavor at all!! AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF, My tiramisu is frozen. FROZEN!! Slice of The Burg sold us FROZEN Tiramisu and DID NOT get my SIMPLE order right. I have the receipt right here that Fresh Mozzarella WAS (apparently) ADDED to my pizza. Do better Slice of The Burg!!

The sandwich was the purpose of the meal and maybe it was an off day being Monday but it quite simply was the bottom ranked of any Philly steak we have tried in our area. The bread cool to the touch and taste. The meat was not seasoned and the sweet peppers were few and far between. The mushroom had so few slices I dtopped the plural to mushroom. One steak sandwich had a lot more meat than the other so wo divided it to the sparse one. This was a failed visit and sometimes that happens but for the cost we won't revisit.
