    This women was horrible to me and had the worst customer service. Her co workers where so quite and didn't even defend her with her poor customer service. I've been coming here for years and never got treated so harshly. I have a family and was buying food for my family and she decided to tell me in a rude way she's hungry. She seemed to not want too work today because I didn't say I was paying with EBT and she got angry that I didn't tell her. This women needs to get fired before she gets more customers disappointed. I pray that I can contact the store manager to report this action. Her attitude was so immature that she got the best out of me and hopefully she doesn't disrespect another customer that would actually act at her level of immaturity. My husband called the main manager to let him know what happened and the manager informed him just don't ever come back again if you didn't like that I hope it was really the manager and if it was then no gradually little by little he will see who this woman really is.

    Local business needs our support. They just had a fire and it's very difficult to r Ed build now especially with interest rates climbing.

    It had been quite awhile since we had dined here, but again Diane and I were afforded a 4-1/2 star…read moreoverall experience. My ordered double dipped Big Beef Sandwich with Sweet Bell Peppers, melted Mozzarella Cheese, and Giardiniera was enormous, and after initially having my breath knocked away by the Giardiniera's overwhelming spiciness, my intestines soon settled down and I greatly enjoyed the melting concoction. The hoagie roll supporting this mammoth edifice of tender roast beef and embellishments nicely sopped up the au jus, and sank under the heat. The Chicago Dog that accompanied the Big Beef was a classic all-beef Hot Dog with a snap, rounded out with Emerald Green Relish, White Onions, Sport Peppers, and Yellow Mustard. For purists no ketchup is allowed on Chicago Dogs! Crinkle-cut French Fries added to my enjoyment of the meal. Diane liked her Fish Sandwich with a slice of American Cheese, and was especially fond of the Cheese Sauce into which she dipped her Fries.

    I tried this place for the first time and was impressed by the decor. The Midwestern theme is well…read moredone and felt authentic based on my visits to the Midwest. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the atmosphere. I ordered the chili dog and fries, and for the price, I expected much better. The chili was thin and watery, lacking the hearty, meaty flavor you'd expect. It tasted more like a budget canned chili than something made fresh in-house. The hot dog itself was just okay--nothing memorable and certainly not something I would return for. Given my experience, I'm surprised by the current four-star rating. The restaurant looks great, but the food didn't match the presentation or the hype. I would recommend managing expectations before visiting. In my opinion, it's simply not as good as it looks.

    1/10 don't reccomend This specific store sales stale stale…read morebread like crouton stale When you order your subs Mike's way they don't even put oregano, oil or vinegar on their subs. They barely put any lettuce. I also asked for mayonnaise, mustard and pickles on all of my subs and none of my subs had any of the following ingredients. Not only that, the bread was super dry and crispy. When I called to make a complaint they said they can only offer me a discount going forward and then the woman on the phone told me that the bread had just come out of the oven and then laughed and hung up on me and I called the store four times following that phone call with no answer. So I called from a block number and got an answer right away and argued with a gentleman for about 20 minutes about the quality of their subs and their customer service they refused to give me a refund, told me that it was not possible. They told me that they tried their best on the quality of the subs and the man also informed me that the bread was not in fact just out of the oven and that they try their best These subs were the driest subs I've ever had and I wouldn't have spent $90 on sandwiches if I had known that they would have come in way below satisfactory I'm definitely not happy with my purchase. I'm not happy with the customer service. I'm not happy with the store in general When asking to speak to a manager or to have contact with a manager they told me that was not an option. When I asked for corporates, phone number or email they told me that also it was not an option. They refused to help me escalate my issue to get a solution that we were both happy with and from here on out I refuse to support this establishment with the way that they have treated me tonight and the quality of food that showed up at my door.

    What can I say I love this place the sub in a tub is one of my favorites you get any sandwich on…read morelettuce like a salad with out the bread and I like the chipotle chicken cheese steak sub very good..
