NEW YORKER aka bacon egg and cheese: two eggs, bacon (or sausage or ham), American cheese, & red pepper aioli on a Kaiser roll
Ruwan J.

((4.25 stars)) Compton's is a sandwich shop whether you're a cold sand guy, hot sandwich dude, or just a vegetarian. this place has you covered. the interior feels new and modern with touches of the old school nostalgia. clean and well-maintained. there's limited seating and a couple of benches out front...and there's a couple of stand-up-style video games to occupy your time while waiting for your food. the menu is fairly large for a sandwich shop made up of all-day breakfast sandwiches, wraps, signatures, "f your diet (big calorie sands)" hot sandwiches, cold sandwiches, and some sides. ordered a "New Yorker" -- essentially a high quality bacon-egg-and-cheese made up of two eggs over medium, bacon (or sausage or ham), American cheese, & red pepper aioli on a Kaiser roll. the bread speaks for itself...it's a freshly baked Kaiser roll and you taste that in each and every bite...it really lifts this sandwich up. the bacon is cooked expertly crispy with some give, and melty American cheese...couldn't really taste the red pepper aioli, but it was there. the "New Yorker" from first bite to last is a satisfying breakfast sandwich. definitely, it is a worthwhile order. other sandwiches that i eyed were the "fish and chips hero' as well as the "deviled egg club." also ordered the macaroni salad, separately as a side. it was fine. nothing to write home about. wouldn't order it again, tbh. you will wait a little extra time to get the sandwiches here, but it shows in the end product bc they are not rushing things and are cooking things from scratch as this isn't fast food. my order was packed up neatly to go. the service here is kinda unmemorable. not much energy, etc. expected this place to be upbeat and jovial. but nothing to complain about or anything like that. if sandwiches are your thing, stop here. if they are not, the problem might be you! lol

CHOPPED CHEESE
Alexander R.

Saw Compton's promoting their new location here online and decided to check it out. Placed an order for pickup and it was ready within 10mins. Normally not a chopped cheese person but there was a BOGO so decided to give it a try. Sandwich overall was pretty solid and good value, but the semolina bread it came on was really the highlight of it - super great texture, fresh, and tasted high quality. Excited to come back and try some of the other sandwiches!

Compton's East Village location
Michelle D.

Absolutely delicious sandwiches. The burrata BLT is my all-time favorite! Their sides are also worth mentioning - mozzarella sticks, onion rings, and corn nuggets are all heavenly. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable and the shop is always clean with good music playing (and fun games available if there's a wait). Highly recommend!

I've always wanted to try this place when living in Astoria almost 5 years ago. Finally was able to now that they have a location in East Village via Uber Eats. Sandwiches are great, definitely recommend them any time of the day.

Very little filling...tried the tuna it was all lettuce waste if $ and you can't add extra fillings (just like Joey Roses all bread)

We got the Banter Bowl, which includes pickled carrot, cabbage, watermelon radish, cucumber, edamame, avocado, quinoa, and miso ponzu dressing. You have a choice of meats, so we chose the grilled chicken. Second, we ordered the falafel bowl that includes three falafels, pickled onions, avocado, cucumber, whipped garlic feta, kale salad, romesco, and Za'atar dressing that had a delicious flavor. However, our ultimate favorite had to be the Thai Crunch Wrap with sweet potato fries. It was fairly busy, and our drinks took a while to come, but the food arrived shortly after. The next time I'm back, I will be sure to reorder the Thai crunch wrap. If you have food allergies, they are extremely accommodating and have numerous vegan/vegetarian/GF.

I ordered the burger, and honestly, I'm still thinking about it. It was cooked perfectly, incredibly juicy, and served on a soft, pillowy bun that brought everything together. Sometimes a simple dish done really well is all you need, and this absolutely delivered. It was an unexpected standout and a great reminder that some of the best bites come when you're not even planning for them.

The dining room was extremely hot, and there didn't appear to be any air conditioning, which made it uncomfortable throughout the meal. The food also took quite a while to arrive. I ordered a tequila mule, but it was lacking flavor and was underwhelming. For my entrée, I ordered the steak medium well, but it came out medium rare. Despite being undercooked, the steak was surprisingly tough and chewy, and it did not seem like a quality cut of meat considering the price. The waiter was friendly and provided good service, which was the highlight of the visit. However, due to the uncomfortable atmosphere, slow food service, disappointing drink, and poor-quality steak, I would not recommend dining here.

Think vintage wallpaper, little knick-knacks, and warm lighting. It's got character. I ordered the market salad with mixed greens, honeycrisp apples, goat cheese, candied pecans, and sherry vinaigrette. It was a hearty portion - super fresh and flavorful, and honestly more than I could finish (not a complaint!). I also ordered a Diet Pepsi with grenadine; they don't carry Diet Coke, which I almost docked a point for, but the mix was unexpectedly delicious. Highly recommend it. My date ordered the hanger steak and said it was absolutely amazing. Only hiccup: his first glass of wine he got came out hot... like, microwave-level warm. Fortunately, the server brought a new (cold) one and the rest of the meal was smooth sailing. Service was friendly, the vibe was homey and relaxed, and the food was solid across the board. Would definitely come back, especially for that salad and another round of grenadine magic.

It was our first time eating at a Friedman's location. It had a nice diner feel to it, with a mix of booths and tables. The brunch menu has a variety of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and burgers, starters, and entrees (fish tacos, grain bowl, fried chicken). I like that several of the items are naturally gluten free, and some can be made gluten free by request. We decided to go with three breakfast items from the brunch menu: I got the shakshuka, my sister got the Nova Benny, and we got the lemon ricotta pancakes to share. All 3 dishes were great. The shashuka came with grilled ciabatta, perfect for dipping into the sunny side eggs and tomato sauce. My sister loved that the poached eggs and smoked salmon of the Nova Benny came on top of a crispy potato latke. The pancakes were fluffy and the lemon ricotta and lemon zest elevated their flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive, and he asked us if we had any allergies when he took our order. He came by several times to check on us and refill water. I would return to Friedman's when I'm in the Herald Square area, or check out one of their other locations in the city.

He didn't even finish but found it amazingly delicious. Service was okay. Nothing too spectacular. I almost felt an inconvenience to the server but we didn't have a fussy order nor was it busy (we ordered before the rush). Maybe she was preparing for the rush. Lol either way, it wouldn't stop me from returning.

It doesn't matter that I have been a loyal customer for over 30 years. I don't understand why the people at the register have zero customer service. They want you to hand over cash or credit card, without any questions or conversation, zero personality or kindness, and sometimes rude. On a recent visit, I wanted to check if their payment policy had changed (they charge a fee for credit cards on top of the bill)... I asked them if they still charge a fee for credit cards and their answer was "there are signs everywhere". While that might be the case, i didn't see the sign... I have vision issues and when I told them (with additional explanation) they didn't proceed to assist me. A couple overheard my exchange and said they have had issues in the past too. To anyone visiting from out of town: From this New Yorker, please know if you experience something similar at Sarge's it is not the norm ... most NYC restaurants, cafes, grab/go, coffee shops, bodegas will treat you kindly, without attitude. The guys behind the counter are amazing... work hard, helpful. Please tip them, if you have the means to do so.
