    High-quality sandwiches for a good price. Agreed with other reviewers about the freshness and full flavor of the ingredients used. Sides aren't an afterthought either and compliment the sandwiches well. I got the turkey club with pasta salad and my fiancée the rotisserie chicken sandwich. Would go here again for sure.

    Did someone say real ingredients slushies...oh my whats your favorite flavor

    A GREAT MEETING BLACE service for 40+ all made fresh upon order, sit back and people watch while they make magical meals.

    BLT with potato salad and lemonade.

    This place is an absolute gem! The menu is pretty straightforward, a mix of sandwiches and cold salads. I had the BLT and the potato salad with the house lemonade. The first surprise was that they make their lemonade and brew cinnamon sticks in it, giving it a surprising twist that was a great experience. The BLT had thick, crunch bacon, crisp lettuce, and juicy tomato. The bread was lightly toasted giving it a little more strength without scratching up my mouth with every bit. Staff was friendly and service was fast. That, with solid pricing, makes a match made in heaven. Totally coming back for more!

    Amazing deal. $10 for a great sandwich and the potato salad is great. Corned beef club was fantastic. Friendly service.

    Antonia is lovely! You can always count on fresh ingredients from Central Market, a smile on her…read moreface and delicious food. I recommend getting there before noon. The shop is tiny and the line builds quickly. She does not get flustered by the line and will take her time to make sure she preps every order the right way, so if you are in a rush, don't bother. Most of the folks are regulars and she knows all by name and typically the persons 'usual.' I can never pass up the rice crispies. So soft and buttery, melt in your mouth! Definitely a gem in the city!

    Lancaster's Restaurant Week has again helped us to find another great place to eat…read more We had lunch at the East King Culinary today and were pleasantly surprised with what we found. I had the prosciutto & portobello panini with arugula salad and biscotti, and my wife had the homemade tomato bisque soup, market salad and biscotti. The food was perfect, as were the portions and we have definitely been won over, not only by the food, but also by the owner Antonia, who is both friendly and charming. This is a small shop that offers homemade soups, salads, paninis and sweets for takeout. The menu is small and varies from day to day, but you won't be disappointed. Antonia uses locally sourced goods, artisanal breads, greens and vegetables, even the portobellos are grown locally. This is a plus not only because everything is so fresh, but it also helps the local economy.

I am here to tell you that as a cheese lover, these spreads are BEYOND ridiculous. Seriously. I WISH that we had something this awesome in North Carolina. I swear she uses these dips as an enticement to get me to visit. She tells me that they make a fantastic smoked kielbasa as well. I will be honest, I can't see this shop doing ANYTHING badly. I am so not kidding here. It's like they have an extra ingredient that makes it so addicting. You don't even have to be hungry, once you try the garlic herb dip you can't stop. Until that is you notice the tub is now empty. Run, don't walk, to any of these locations for these truly delicious spreads!

I told my wife, let's break tradition and serve something different for Thanksgiving. Instead of a supermarket ham, let's buy a smoked ham from the Amish country. I found online S. Clive Weaver. I called the store and spoke with the manager. I asked about the store hours as well as Thanksgiving Ham. (I'm thinking it's going to be a blood bath, 1000 people running into the store screaming HAM!) The manager assured me this is not the case, there will be plenty of boneless, smoked ham for us to choose. We pulled up to, it seems like a mini supermarket. Once inside, it felt like when the Wizard of Oz went from Black & White to color. There is EVERYTHING one would need for a holiday dinner. The first thing I noticed was the beautifully arrangement of baskets. There were multiple sizes of meat and cheese baskets, I never had a sweet salami? The blocks of cheese, were cubed and served to our Thanksgiving guests. Everyone loved the unique flavors that are not regional to where I live. They also had a pie station with many different flavors of homemade pies. I brought home a Shoo Fly Pie? Filled with the warm spices of the holiday, another hit with my Family. Now for the Ham, there was a wall of ham! Ham everywhere. I chose a hefty porker, it was very easy to cook. Again, everyone loved the flavor of the smoked ham that I snuck across state lines. S. Clive Weaver, it was a pleasure to shop at your establishment.

    Isaac's has the nostalgic sports bar, Jason's deli-type feel. Order to-go, snag a table, or pull up…read moreto the bar - there's nothing fancy or formal about Isaac's. We popped in on a Saturday afternoon for a laidback lunch. Had it not been 100+ degrees outside, we might have opted for one of their alfresco tables. Alas, we decided on our customary bar stools. There were only a few other patrons around, and the bar was completely empty. The draw to this specific Isaac's is their house beers. I wasn't expecting much, to be completely honest. I'm no beer snob, but I know my way around a brew, and I just expected a mediocre experience given the deli-vibes. I was very pleasantly surprised by, not just the selection of beers, but the quality of the ones we tried. I had a pilsner - those can be a hit or miss. This was a homerun. Maybe it was the sweltering heatwave, but it was cold, refreshing, and no bitter aftertaste. I ordered a turkey, swiss sandwich on a pretzel bun. The menu didn't indicate it would be served warm, but it was. I'll never complain about melty cheese! Who doesn't love a pretzel bun? The location is right downtown, so parking is a toss-up. We opted for a nearby garage. There were about 8 people working in the kitchen, but there was only one person tending bar. She was super nice and helpful!

I could tell he was very tired and didn't leave a good opening for me to ask him. Isaac's is a bit of a chain and their food is very average as I have had it before. The food this time around was reasonably fresh enough, the fried fish and other things looked good and others were enjoying their meals. I was comped the Pink Flamingo drink because my waiter told me he was busy but then forgot about it. I was going to remind him but he remembered before I could remind him. He also comped two of the other group members some chocolate chip cookies. At least one of the 2 ladies was over the moon. I suspect part of it was the whole eye candy piece. But everyone was respectful- I promise you that. I am sure the restaurant was surprised to receive about 20 people and they weren't able to get notification until the day of or the day before.
