The Italian Sub recommended by ChatGPT, originated in 1995. The place claims to provide the best…read moreItalian sub in Boston, and it truly was excellent. Italian Sub: $20 for a foot long, the meat was so plentiful it's almost overflowing, enough for two meals. The prisciutto was tender and juicy; the salami was firm and savory with a strong smokiness. Both are thinly sliced, so despite the thick stack, it was relatively easy for a bite. The provolone cheese was also generously portioned, with a robust yet not spicy flavor and a subtle nutty aroma, perfectly complementing the two meats. The olive oil and balsamic vinegar were particularly outstanding: mellow, tangy, and with a fruity aroma of grapes, key to the complex flavor profile. The lettuce, tomatoes, and onions were all fresh, especially the onions were refreshing and a little zingy, perfect for removing the greasiness. Unfortunately, I was worried about not being able to roll it back up properly and making it inconvenient to carry (which it actually happened), so I took it away and ate it at the office. After about 40 minutes, the bread had become somewhat dry and hard.

All of the food was fresh and tasty. The price was reasonable, we both also got drinks and the total was around $50 or so. The food was filling! I could barely finish my sandwich. You order at the register then can sit anywhere and they bring the food to you. There was plenty of seating and the place was kept clean. Nice natural lighting as well. Street parking can be found along the road, there is also a paid parking lot right across the restaurant. There was another empty lot but wasn't sure what for so we didn't risk it. Would go back to this hidden gem in Assembly row!

We were greeted by a really nice man who you can tell has a great heart. He was spunky and we matched his energy. I overheard him say he worked here in high school! They do sell slices but we wanted a pie fresh out of the oven, so we opted for a half tray Sicilian. We also got a small tuna sub. I liked the sub, the lettuce was chopped into the tuna salad which I hadn't seen before. Now the pizza, it was honestly really really good. From the cheese to the crust, I was happy. No wonder they won the 2024 award for cheesiest pizza! I hope this place continues to thrive and gets the recognition it deserves. Check out Leone's!

I was immediately seated by an open window to enjoy a glorious late September day. My server Jackie was so very helpful. I asked her about a couple of things and she was spot on when she said that many people love this salad. It was beyond delicious and so perfect for a quick lunch. I opted for ice tea but If I didn't have more than a few errands yet to do, I would have loved pairing this black and blue steak salad with a Merlot or Malbec!! Close to the movie theater here so I am thinking great place for dinner drinks and a movie. Now that I found Salt + Sound I see myself coming here whenever I'm at Assembly Row.

The interior gave me diner vibes - very laid back and comfortable. At 11:30 it was pretty much empty. It seems like most people get their food to go. Service was prompt and friendly. I ordered the Tofused Banh Mi - tofu, pickled veg, basil, cilantro, and a fried egg on a brioche bun. Definitely not a traditional banh mi but very tasty nonetheless! The teriyaki-like glaze was a little sweet for me and I would have preferred some more spice to balance it out but all in all I was very happy with my visit here and would definitely come back.

I know y'all city slickers are used to places without restrooms, but it would have been nice to wash my hands after scarfing down this yummy albeit messy sandwich.

I ordered a beef sandwich not knowing what to expect, but what arrived was pure deliciousness - thinly shaved beef piled high with bbq sauce and mayo and it's just as messy and sloppy as it sounds.
