Excellent food & they're practically giving it away. Wonderful little place. It's a hidden gem.

I enjoy the Firehouse Subs subs, honestly a decent variety to choose from. You're able to customize…read moreeach sub by removing or adding toppings/ingredients. I'm lactose intolerant so I'm a big fan of having this as an option. Service here is no frills no thrills, all game. They're fast for an airport food store front. They'll yell out your order number or name so be sure to be close to the counter as you wait for your meal.

I saw the place on the way in and was intrigued. But I wasn't hungry at the time and I wanted to…read moreget my trip started. Luckily I saw this place again on the way back and I knew I had to have it. I ended up getting the Club on a Sub hot sandwich, and I must say, it did not disappoint! The flavors worked well together, the sauce brought it home. I wanted to eat half and save the other for later, but I couldn't help it. Even though I was full beyond belief (one sub could feed 2 people), it was definitely worth it. Service was quick, you can order on your phone, they call out your name like a Starbucks. Each sub can be modified to your liking. And they offer drinks, chips and plenty of extras to go with your sub. It's a small restaurant, but had plenty of seating, with chargers (it is inside an airport after all). Food came out quick, hot and delicious. Would come back again to try other subs. I kinda wish they sold in halves, so I can try more flavors in one go. Welp, until next time!

When you spend almost 30 minutes on a Sunday afternoon "being schmoozed" by Charlie, Benanti's…read moreprototypical 80-something owner, who is genuinely charismatic with that legendary "old Italian charm"... you would think your two takeout Italian subs would be above reproach. My large "Charlie's special" hero was freshly made and more than passable. However, even if my entire order had been served by Dean Martin & Frank Sinatra, I would still be smarting from "Benanti's sticker shock!" Perhaps I was hypnotized by Charlie's gregarious, old world charm? You see, unlike almost ever other deli in America, Benanti's has no visible menu or sign, anywhere to be seen! And after wrapping up the order, which also included one Arizona Iced Tea; and a box of supposedly "freshly baked" Italian cookies, I whipped out my trusty Chase Credit Card only to be told that it was "cash only!" Again, no signs, anywhere. Maybe it was a mistake to pluck three $20 bills from the small wad of cash in my pants pocket. When I asked Charlie how much for everything, he replied $58, without hesitation. I quickly re-tabulated my little lunch order. The number still sounded like an awful lot, all things considered. When I questioned whether the # was correct, Charlie quickly did a pencil calculation on a shopping bag, and reconfirmed the aforementioned total. Like an idiot, I quickly gave him three 20's, accepted my $2 change, and exited the premises, never again to return!!! The End!

About to hop a flight to NOLA from Newark so I hit up Tommy's Italian Sausage in Elizabeth. Wanted…read moreto also hit Jerry's but he closed the gate as I was walking up...maybe next time. I've had the sausage/dog combo before that's like an Italian Dog and I loved it but I had never just had some good old doggies here so I grabbed a couple. Went with 1 with red onions and mustard and 1 with chili, diced onion, and mustard. I love red onions, just a big nostalgia thing to my youth getting dogs in Coney Island at Nathan's. These onions were tasty. The chili wasn't what I was expecting but the crunch from the diced onion was welcomed. The rolls tasted fresh and the dogs had a fantastic snap and delicious flavor. No surprise here - Tommy's - Didn't Suck!

Cash Only. I'm stressing this because on my most recent visit it was a major issue with a couple…read moreahead of me acting shocked when they were given the total (almost $30) and they only had $3 in singles. (And that ATM machine at the corner? It looks like it'll not only steal your identity but your soul as well.) My last visit (2023-ish) I tried their 'combo' (one hot dog, one sausage) which was... okay. But when they're slinging a double Italian hot dog? They're firing on all cylinders. Tommy's is not shy to pile a wicked amount of grub into that pizza bread. The hot dogs kind of get lost under a mountain of deep-fried and oily (but delicious) sliced spuds. (I do wish they weren't so stingy with the peppers and onions to really balance out the meal.) The 'Holy Trinity' when it comes to Italian hot dogs in North Jersey is a no-brainer... Dickie Dee's, Jimmy Buff's and Tommy's. (For me - no one comes close to Dickie Dee's but my one kid said Tommy's was his [current] fave.) As for that couple that came cashless? A good Samaritan behind me pulled out a wad of cash (it's not wise to pull out a fistful of cash anywhere you go but it's ESPECIALLY not wise when you're in the rough and tumble streets of Elizabeth, let's be real) and after swapping Venmo information everything was a-okay. Take-out/to-go only. Parking is atrocious. Guy behind the glass - always aces. (Oh, and... cash only!)

Love Beechers being from Seattle but service and quality of food served at this EWR bar was not up…read moreto par-far from NW quality conscious curation. I was early for my 755pm flight back to IAD, given the tsa issue but got through precheck quicker than expected, which then give me a chance to lounge a bit. Was not able to use United Club so... Let's get right to the low score--Worst of all, the bartender at this concourse A at EWR was almost hostile, unwelcoming... bar was not full i was using an extra stool for my purse when he came over touched my luggage and moved it behind my chair, then told hastily to take my bag off the extra stool next to my seat. Now realized he did not even greet me when I approached; thus, the unwelcoming behavior at the outset. He did not approach me nor look at my direction until almost a good 5 minutes later when i finally called him for service. Shame that it was centrally located along other bars/restaurants in A terminal but with this unfriendly attitude-even the two ladies sitting a few chairs on my left looked unhappy and almost hesitant as they were also told to keep their purses off the stools next to them. Gentleman to my right was alone and friendly and tried to engage me in a conversation but it felt awkward-it was simply a bad vibe. I took only a few bites of my turkey sandwich which was bland and overpriced for the quality $29, my brut was $22, so that over $50 stop was the worst layover drink/bite i've ever had. Luckily or unluckily, depending on which to look at it, my terminal switched back to C--and by the way had better options? maybe. At this point however, i've lost my appetite. Definitely one of the worst airport lounge experience..
