From the garlic crust on the chicken, to the large cut of chicken breast, to the Caesar dressing, everything just went together. Our only complaint is the bread was a little tough/almost too thick. But it was still delicious and we gave it a 8/10 and 7.8/10, respectively. I personally was not a fan of the fig and pig because of the Gorgonzola cheese sauce - it's very strong and I didn't realize Gorgonzola is reminiscent of blue cheese. But my husband liked this one and gave it a 7/10. We also felt everything was reasonably priced, it came to about $37 for two subs and two bags of chips. We'll definitely be back to try more subs!

They also offer the option of taking your meal in a borrowed picnic basket so you can have a picnic in the park across the street on nice days.

We stopped in for lunch and ordered the Godfather and the Soprano. I really enjoyed the Godfather, it had meatballs, mozzarella, and ricotta on their house-made seeded rolls.

They also offer a very extensive and robust holiday catering menu. You can order dips, spreads, grazing boards, desserts, breads, and complete meals. They even have a special package for the Feast of the Seven Fishes. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their sandwiches and to order some catering items!

The servers were also tending the bar which was getting decent traffic even at lunchtime. My dining partner says there is a pool table in a back room, and that could be fun to fold into a longer visit. The piped in music was light jazz. The menu is oriented around philly cheesesteaks and variations. I ordered the chicken philly, which was large enough to make two lunches (I brought half home.) The flavor was decent, with seasoned or marinated chicken chunks and veggies & cheese on a sturdy roll. It came with a decent serving of chips. We were served a juice glass of room temp water on arrival and no drink order was taken. Negatives were related to pacing. It took a lot of time for the food to come out. We were pushed to eat even half of our sandwiches within the hour my dining partner had for lunch. The server did not check back after dropping the plates, which could have been an issue if we needed more water. And getting the check was a challenge that took way too long considering how small the place is. This is a decent place to grab a sandwich or a drink if you have the time or live in the neighborhood.

My server did a fantastic job and made sure that was taken care of. Why did the food fall short? I ordered the Velvet burger and added bacon to it. My server how I wanted it cooked, and I said medium rare would be fantastic - it came out medium well. If asked for my preference, that is my expectation. The burger toppings were tasty, the French onion sauce was very salty, which was a lot by the end of the meal. Bacon was cooked perfectly, I actually chose to eat it separately. I got the fries that came with the burger and they were not great. Soft and soggy is how I would describe the texture. I did get a side of the French onion sauce to dip fries in, but didn't eat the fries and left the sauce due to its saltiness on the burger itself.

It appears to be multiple small businesses located in this space. The staff was super welcoming and helpful. There is a small dining area inside with 4(?) seats. Looks to be a popular take out spot.

Only street parking is available, but it wasn't too difficult to find a spot. The atmosphere: Very rustic vibe with some farmhouse-style decor. They have table, high-top, bar, and patio seating available. The food: I opted for the Chicken and Waffles with a side of cheese grits. I chose to make it hot for more spice. It's served with one whole waffle, two large pieces of fried chicken, and syrup on the side. The chicken was not seasoned as much as I hoped and wasn't as spicy as I expected, which was a bummer. The cheese grits were alright as well, but not as flavorful as I hoped. My partner ordered the Double Barrel Bowl, and he really enjoyed it. It was packed with pulled pork and was plentiful and filling. The service: Great and kind service from Mave (I believe that is her name but I'm not entirely sure). She informed us about the daily specials and was attentive throughout our visit.
