I was re-living my 90s video game memories by playing classics on the Super Nintendo emulator. Lot of classics, but super shout out to Donkey Kong Country 2, that I easily remembered after years. Anyhow, in between playing video games I went for an Eggplant Parm hero. There were some other interesting veggie choices - pasta, veggie burger, etc. - but I thought this one fit the bill. I was quite busy playing the video games that the food was secondary. However, I didn't hate a single bite of it. That's a good sign. Love reminiscing over childhood nostalgia playing video games!

This was a great experience for catering!…read more They have so many catering options on their website, and when I called they were also extremely helpful in answering questions and walking me through everything. I ordered a few 3 ft subs which were perfect for our large group. 3 Ft speciality subs are $80 and for an extra $10 they will cut the sub. They also charge a delivery fee of $25. They delivered right on time which was much appreciated. Everyone loved the sandwiches - we ordered a fully loaded Italian sub and a chicken cutlet sub. Overall this was a solid pick and I'm happy I placed a catering order here.

Stopped by Venti Italian Specialties and it definitely lives up to the hype. If you're into legit…read moreItalian deli sandwiches, this place is a must. They have a huge variety of sandwiches on the menu, from classic combos to more creative, loaded options, so there's something for everyone. We ordered the chicken Caesar, the Hell Raiser, and the Jimmy Z, and each one brought something different to the table. The chicken cutlets were cooked perfectly and not greasy at all. You can taste how incredibly fresh the mozzarella was which really stood out, and the bread was soft but sturdy enough to hold everything together without falling apart. What really impressed me was how generous the portions were. These sandwiches are packed! Super filling and worth the price (14$). You can tell they don't cut corners with quality or quantity. Only downside is parking can be a bit of a struggle in the area, so plan ahead. But once you take that first bite, you won't even care.

After recently moving to the area, I was excited to check out Mordi's Sandwich Shop. I've heard…read moregreat things! My first order was the chicken parm sandwich and it did NOT disappoint. It was absolutely delicious, perfectly savory, and extremely generous portion size. $14 for a sandwich is arguably high but it does feel like a good value. When I ordered it again, I added a classic BLT for my partner so he could try some Mordi's too--and, unsurprisingly. It also tasted amazing! However, when we first opened the box, we were both extremely disappointed at the size of it. For a simple classic sandwich that costs the same as the slightly more complex chicken parm (give or take $1), both combined halves of his sandwich were the same size as just one half of my chicken parm. It was alarmingly small (and did leave us wanting more). Next time I got him the $19 ribeye cheesesteak which he said was also delicious--and just as large and generous as the chicken parm. Service is quick, the cashier was friendly, and the free dog treats at the counter are a nice touch. We haven't had a miss so far taste-wise--only hits! While we encourage you to be mindful that not all portion sizes are created equal, we still absolutely recommend checking out this Mordi's (Lafayette) if you haven't yet!

I was stuck in Newark yesterday and wanted something beyher than the Best Western restaurant, so I…read morepulled up UberEats and found Veloce. Sandwiches were excellent. The one with pesto, chicken cutlet, and tomato packed a ton of sharp garlic flavor in every bite, while the basic chicken parm with cheese was also delicious. Sandwiches are gargantuan--one easily feeds two hungry people. I would recommend going there if you have transportation (I did not) because they arrived a bit cold and very late on UberEats (but I don't fault the restaurant for any of that).

I ordered their Cold Sandwich #4 via Grubhub and I appreciate that their prices are the same as their website. The chicken cutlet is nicely seasoned and has a good thickness. It does get slightly overtaken by the mozzarella simply because of the size of it. The seeded semolina was soft, slightly chewy, but mostly fresh. I absolutely loved the chipotle mayo and cold crispness of the lettuce and fresh tomato that brightened each bite. I know this is a cold sandwich but I would honestly prefer it if the chicken cutlet and semolina bread was warm. They had other sandwiches that caught my eye, so I'll just have to go back soon. Good try!

I ordered a half of sandwich with Honey Turkey and American yellow cheese with the works. The place was busy today so the wait was around 15 minutes. The place is sort of small but it gets the job done. The service was very good and friendly. It was worth the wait because they use quality cold cuts and fresh produce. The sandwich was just what I was craving. Also, they have a good selection of beverages and snacks. I've been going to this place for well over 10 years and it's still good.

The Korean is a bit too sweet to me, and Southern is a bit dry. I think their chicken is crispy, but they can fry their chicken a bit too long so can be dry. It's better in saucier sandwiches

Tasty baked goods, but some inconsistencies!!…read more I visited Prato Bakery recently and had a mixed experience. Some pastries were fresh and flavorful, while others felt a bit dry or overbaked. The quality wasn't consistent across all items I tried. The bakery has a cozy atmosphere, and the staff was friendly, though service was a little slow during busy hours. Pricing seemed fair for what you get, but not exceptional. Overall, Prato Bakery is a decent spot for a quick treat, but better consistency in baked goods would make it stand out more.
