    Get the breakfast sandwich called the "greenpointer". It is absolutely delicious and has become a weekend ritual of mine to come & grab one. The mike's hot honey is the perfect touch to the combination. I wish there were some seats to enjoy but this Astoria location is more of a pick up / to-go establishment. Either or, you have to come try them out, won't regret it!

    Keepin it real out here in Astoria Was out there with a client and he swore by this place. He treated me to a bacon egg and cheese and yes it was that good. A little different from the usual New York BEC, but with the higher price tag, they def flared this thing up. Would get it again when i save up enough

    This bs ass egg and hash brown sandwich that I DID NOT even ordered.

    I came in today and ordered a sandwich I saw on TikTok. The girl at the counter said it was called a "Rodeo Burger" basically double cheese burger with onions, hickory bacon and stack on onion rings on top. When I got home I didn't bother to eat because i wasn't feeling well and I just opened now and it's 12:55 AM, I found something completely different a poppy seed bun with hash browns and eggs. Who's f**king paying $18 for that? On top of that, it had no flavor. The store wasn't even crowded I was the only one ordering at the time, and the people before me were already eating. How do you confuse a burger with eggs and send out the wrong order like that? I doubt they are even gonna fix this wrong but damn sure later in the morning I will be disputing this charge. Edit: I disputed the charge

    The Spicy Chicken Parm- This sandwich was great. The bread was smooshy and the chicken was moist, and the cheese was melty. The sandwich had flavor but wasn't too spicy and all of the ingredients melded very well. The Michelle- The brie was good, but the sandwich needed one component to be the hero flavor, because overall it was just a little too subtle. For example, maybe if the onion hadn't been pickled, or if the mustard had been spicier, or there had been more cheese. It was a fine sandwich, they didn't skimp on the turkey or anything else, but it wasn't anything special. The Spicy Chicken Parm sandwich blew it out of the water. The guys behind the counter were super friendly- they offered us ice and cups for our cooler drinks. One was eating his lunch when we came in, and stopped eating immediately as soon as we ordered to make our sandwiches. I loved that they had connect four on all of the indoor tables, and appreciated the small outside seating area (but beware the pigeons that perch on the roof- we had a close close call).

    Calabria (~$10)

    Ordered: Calabria (~$10): Soft Scrambled Eggs, Cheddar, Avocado, Mike's Hot Honey & Calabrian Chiles on a toasted poppy seed Kaiser roll Aya's take: Found myself back at Compton's but this time for breakfast! The staff is always super friendly and welcoming. My order wasn't ready when I arrived but they assured me they were working on it. I probably waited an additional 5 or so minutes. The Calabria is super solid! The scrambled eggs were soft and fluffy, the cheddar was melted, and the avocado added that fresh element that's an absolute must in breakfast sandwiches. Despite the Mike's Hot Honey and Calabrian chiles in the sandwich, it honestly wasn't that spicy. I did like the added flavor but the sandwich still felt a bit dry and maybe could've used a creamier sauce (like a spicy aioli) on the side. Other than that, it definitely hit the spot and kept me full for a while.

    Calabrian brekkie sandwich - amazing

    I was excited to try the breakfast sandwiches here and had a few options to choose from since vegetarian & meat-free options were available. Thoroughly enjoyed the "Calabrian" sandwich). So much, that I came back later that day to try the "Eggplant Parm" sandwich for lunch. These are super filling, so it's worth to split between two people. The semolina bread I had for lunch was amazing. Special shout-out to the man behind the counter, phenomenal service.

    I can't believe how far the quality of this place has fallen. I was a loyal (~ 3 times per week) customer and raved to friends about the wraps and breakfast burrito. I don't know if it's to save money but my once favorite sandwich, the Waldorf Tuna Wrap, is now a disaster. The last three times I've ordered it it's fallen apart on first bite and I taste none of the wasabi mayo that made it unique and delicious before. It's basically inedible now.

    Favorite spot for sandwich no doubt. Super big portion with the price, great value. I love their chopped cheese sandwich, which is basically a double cheese burger with a lot of their special dressing. It's super filling, a bit greesy, but very comforting. I would opt for this sandwich over a burger. Also like their hot sandwiches with chicken fingers, also nicely designed on the flavor and texture.

    A solid choice for the residents in the area. This location has revamped their interior a bit and took down the outdoor setup. They have a large variety of sandwiches, burgers, wraps to choose from, you'd eventually find one that you like. The wait is long during lunch hour so it's best you order in advance or come outside peak times. Place is small, maybe 1-2 people can sit inside and a handful outside in the blazing sun.

    This is a wonderful hidden gem. As you walk in past the sidewalk patrons , you are greeted by retro arcade games (free of charge). Also has a kiosk where you can order, but why? They have wonderful employees. Every time I go here, I'm greeted with smiles and jokes from the guy at the register taking orders. The menu is full of great sandwiches, and it's something for everyone. The place is super clean and you could also sit and play classics like connect four while you wait for your food.

    My husband heard great things about Compton's, so we decided to drive 30 minutes from Long Island to try their sandwiches. It was around 10 am, the girl who took my order was nice and helpful. We got the mozzarella sticks, french fries, chopped cheese, Philly cheesesteak and The Jimmy sandwich. My order took a while- ppl who ordered a single sandwich after me got theirs first, which kind of irked me. We weren't a big fan of the mozzarella stick breading- it tasted hard (overfried) without having much flavor. The entire family loved the fries and the chopped cheese- both were seasoned to perfection. The chopped cheese is comparable to the one @ Hajji's in Harlem. The Philly cheesesteak was disappointing because the meat wasn't chopped thin enough, so there were random large chunks that were very chewy, and there wasn't enough cheese whiz. The Jimmy sandwich was great with just the right amount of spiciness (my fave). If you're craving some good sandwiches, there are some diamonds in the rough here.

    At the corner of 14th St & 30th Ave. Had to circle around to find a parking spot.

    Yelp's Summer of Sandwiches is a great way of spotlighting local businesses that I might not have ever visited on my own. I dread coming to Astoria, but for Compton's delicious sandwiches, I would make an exception. I found parking on a lazy Wednesday afternoon, a couple of blocks away. On Google Streetview, Compton's had a covered street hutch for dining, but has since been removed and there are 3-4 tables and chairs on the sidewalk now. Ordering my sandwiches to go, I waited a few minutes and heard my cheesesteak being made by the satisfying pinging of the spatula hitting the steel flattop grill chopping up the steak. The first sandwich to come out of the kitchen though, was the Burrata Combo. It's a great cold hero sandwich with lots of crusty & creamy mozzarella on top of layers of hot & sweet soppressata, ham, prosciutto & arugula topped with their vodka sauce. The Vodka Chicken Parm hero was pretty good also with a crispy fried chicken breast topped with mozzarella and again with vodka sauce. But my favorite had to be the Spencer (named after my Yelp buddy?). It is a tasty, perfectly seasoned cheesesteak topped with provolone, peppers, onions and sauced with red pepper aioli. It was like perfection on a slab of bread. I think taking home it home took away from it's full flavor, so I can't wait to come back to try out all the other sandwiches for breakfast, lunch & dinner and eat them on the sidewalk, piping hot!

    We stopped in here for lunch after doing a bit of research on Yelp. Small sandwich shop on the corner of the street. Menu is pretty extensive. We ordered a Michelle which was apples Brie turkey and caramelized onions. Really fantastic the wife loved it. Also got a Jaclyn which was eggplant and mozzeralla along with some fig spread. I think it is the little extras like this that take the sandwiches to another level. They were a Good size too. Next time I'd try a sandwich with meat and hope I can come back soon.

I'm a big fan of the jalapeño double cheeseburger, prepared (smartly) with sliced fresh jalapeños (as opposed to icky pickled jalaps). I prefer it without the sauce, but to each their own. One thing that makes 7th Street Burger so compelling in that they offer vegan burgers which taste just like the real thing. It's truly an impressive culinary feat, in addition to being a sane and sensible option both for non-meat eaters and customers simply seeking a healthier burger. I've eaten here several times but, in the interest of full disclosure, I did recently get a free meal as part of a Yelp event. Try out the new mobile app if you prefer to order ahead and earn some rewards as well. I recommend taking your order down the street to Judy & Punch where you can get a refreshing adult beverage to wash down your meal on the back patio. Summer is coming.
