My boyfriend took me there on our first date, I got the Ham & Mango sandwich with sweet potato…read morefries. I absolutely loved the sandwich, I thought the flavor combo was so good. And I will say, I think they have the best sweet potato fries I think I've ever had, if you are a fan of sweet potatoes you definitely have to give it a try. The employees were super nice and the vibe was so chill, I really do love it there. I've been back 2 times now and, it's definitely in my top 3 here in IC

The star of the show was the freshly cooked basket of sweet potato fries with garlic aioli. We almost didn't get a side and I'm SO glad we got them. Those fries would definitely be part of my "last meal".

It's the perfect consistency and flavor- I could focus on this instead of drinking heavily to drown out my family's opinions about RFK Jr during our feast. Mother's Day Bratwurst cookout? Select your type- they have Philly cheesesteak, Big Grove Beer battered, Korean short rib, creole, and mango habanero. All of them slap like a disgraced debutante whose promenade partner got fresh behind the ice sculpture. Driving to the East Side of Iowa city and simply want a top shelf Cuban Sandwich? Well tough shit for you, they don't have it on the top shelf; it's made fresh in front of your face. (In terms of quality though I will put that in a tip shelf). Finally, the staff are helpful and knowledgeable. The usual stereotype I have of a butcher is a really beefy and gruff dude with chronic meat sweats, who pals around with a baker and candlestick maker (why is that a job btw, that seems like a hobby at best). These guys don't look like that- giving me a lesson in stereotypes and judging books via their cover. As I chomp down on my deliciously spiced sausages, I realize that both my horizons and waistline have expanded. Finally, it is pronounced Toe-Ma's. Get that wrong and they will laugh at you, and you will deserve it.

We were a little confused how to get in - the entrance is actually inside the Ace Hardware. There's no seating inside, but there are a few tables outside. Probably the best sandwiches we've ever had!

Everyone I have ever brought has asked to go back a second time. They are a little wonky right now with restrictions and staffing, I think. When I went, we had to order at the door and couldn't even go into the restaurant. It did not detract from the quality of food though! And this location is quicker when you don't want to deal with the hassle of downtown parking and crowds.

The Encounter Cafe is…read moreliterally across the street from our hotel, so this was a no-brainer if you're looking for an upgrade to the complimentary powdered eggs and overused waffle machine offered by the hotel that your staying at. The space itself is large and looks to be separated into two halves. I entered on the one side, ordered at the counter, just like you would at any coffee shop and waited. This place serves a full-service breakfast as well if you're looking for something more substantial (eggs, panini's, pancakes, etc..). I was just here picking up and bringing it back to our room. The coffees were fine, but there was only one gentleman working the counter, and he was a bit overwhelmed. He forewarned me that he had 4-5 drinks ahead of mine, so I ended up sitting there waiting for about 15 minutes for our two drinks. I wasn't pressed for time today, but if I was, this would've been an issue. I ordered a raspberry chocolate scone and a cinnamon roll. The scone was delicious. Not too sweet and was definitely made this morning. The cinnamon roll was delicious as well, but it was extremely sweet. To the point where it hurt your teeth. It would also have been better if it were warmed up. Lastly, they gave me this big cinnamon roll in a bag without any napkins or utensils?!? I had to stop at the free breakfast at our hotel to get a fork, knife and some napkins. So kind of a mixed-bag at the Encounter Cafe. I would give it another shot and try some other things, but it didn't blow me away.

I have yet to find a more delicious chain sandwich than this order right here. Jersey Mike's truly is A SUB ABOVE! Rating = 9.1/10). Brownie (For a pre-packaged brownie, I was pleasantly surprised with the moist texture and great flavor. Rating = 7.3/10). Service: I had one of the best customer service experiences in recent memory today. I was welcomed in with a smile when I stepped in the door, the order was quick and accurate, and the cashier carried an entire conversation with me as they were preparing my sandwich. Pure class! These are the little things that truly matter to me as a customer, and I knew immediately when I left the store that I would be leaving a 5-star review when I left the building. Hats off to the management, training personnel, and front line workers - your efforts are noticeable! Ambiance: While I did not stay in the store to eat my meal, the tables and floors looked clean and orderly. Overall, I am a huge fan of the Jersey Mike's brand, and it is visits like today that remind me why I have no problem giving the company my business.

Chili cheese nachos were yummy and not soggy. The jalapeños were a nice touch for me and were actually fresh and crunchy (didn't read menu past the big bold letters so it caught me off guard, good thing I like them). The home made fries that came with the burger were good, the burger itself was also not bad. The Drunkin Mac N Cheese was ok, more runny/liquid cheese, flavor was ok too. Our server was nice and the food came pretty quickly. Overall we got the lunch we were looking for (wanted chili on/with something) and had the place nearly to ourselves. Can't really speak to how loud or crazy the place may get at game time. We'll keep Quinton's on our list of places to return later.

I stand by that the aloha chicken sandwich is the best thing you can ever order here. It has been my tried and true for over a decade of my life. Rarely is this sandwich made poorly. And my go-to for as long as I can remember is their broccoli and cheese soup bread bowl. Unfortunately, the bread bowl isn't the right call anymore as the bread is typically not fresh. I tried both a few weeks ago and the sandwich was delish but the bowl was less than to be desired. I came on a Saturday evening to watch NCAA basketball with friends. Food came out at different times and wasn't right. Service was slow and they were very understaffed. Pricing is typical. Drink specials were limited. I'd come for a beer and go elsewhere for a bite.
