    This used to be one of the best places for lunch on 28. The past year or two there has been a massive downturn in quality and reliability (with an increase in pricing every year). Most of the menu items are great but the quantity of each order seems to decrease each time and theres something missing/wrong with the order almost guaranteed. Today sent me over the edge however when i received this serving of a fruit cup as a side (which they tack on 69c for btw) Ridiculous. Pathetic. No effort by staff.

    This sat like this for 40 min, we left and it probably went undone for another 40 min.  ‍

    What a down hill slide this local gem has gone through. Gross. Food is alright. Tea is awesome.

    Over cooked pretzel dog

    Disappointed yet again. Second time trying this location in a little over a week and still just not good. Went in and ordered with my daughter and ordered the kids pizza and mini pretzel dogs. Pizza doesn't look cooked and pretzel dogs are looking over done. Also asked for cheese with them and paid for it but did not get. I ordered the nachos because I saw someone have the the time I was in before. I was sent home with a box of chips and two containers. One filled with this burnt looking cheese and then one stuffed with some chunks of tomatoes, green onion , shredded cheese and avocado, a small container of jalapeños. There's no chili and it's just a huge disappointment yet again.

    Steak??? This is on their "steak" and Gorgonzola salad. Yuck

    Ordered their "Steak" & Gorgonzola salad, paid $16.61 for slices of deli meat. Ugh... now I remember why I haven't been there for months. Never going back again.

    Ordered door dash today and literally got one slice of meat and no cheese and paid 20 something dollars. Won't be returning until something good happens to this place. I

    I agree with Brett, for consistency, this McAlisters has it. I used to always go to this one, prior to Mooresville getting theirs. My regular meal of the BLT, potato salad & sweet tea is consistently good. Perfect amount of the bacon, lettuce, mayo & tomato makes for a perfect BLT. Staff are friendly & quick & the resturaunt is always clean.

    A French Dip Sandwich
    Andrew M.

    This place is hit/miss for service. Out of the last 5 times I've ordered, 3 times they have messed up the order and/or served a terrible sandwich. The last French dip had only 2 slices of beef inside a stale piece of bread. Very disappointing. I usually call to complain, but what's the point if it never changes the service. Stay away from this one, hopefully it gets new ownership or local store management.

    My jaw hurts from chewing on the hard crusty bread from my sandwich…read more I decided to give this place another try after my lackluster first experience. Unfortunately, it fell short, again. None of the sandwiches I've tried have blown me away. Theyre not bad, but not memorable. Limited selection in the prepared foods counter. Service is okay. The people who take your order are friendly but the woman who checked me out kinda wasn't. For an Italian deli (and I'm Italian with high expectations) this is a no from me.

    The name captures the aesthetic - old tyme Italian Market. Walk into a small market with a deli…read morecase full of meats, cheeses, antipasto, and arancini. Find another case with a variety of steaks ready to be cut - ribeye and NY strip were just a few examples. The cases have oils and spices to enhance your cooking. At lunchtime on Saturday there was a line to order sandwiches but it moved pretty quickly. The meats, peppers, seasoning, and bread far surpass anything you'd get at a chain sub shop. Half a sandwich filled me up which meant I got to enjoy the rest for lunch the next day. Between cold cuts, paninis, and hot sandwiches there are a variety of sandwich options. Grab one of the tables inside or sit at a table on the sidewalk on a nice day and enjoy a great lunch at Ferrucci's.

    I've been a fan of NYBS's restaurant since they opened, and my husband and I would visit at least…read moreonce a month for dinner.  Unfortunately, after a few recent bad experiences, we won't be returning.   My biggest issues recently have been - * Excessive salt on the Salmon BLT sandwich and meatballs - formerly, two of our favorite dishes * Smoked salmon fonduta - heating smoked salmon made this a fishy, unpalatable appetizer * Hamburger overcooked and dry, even with the added (very thinly sliced) cheddar cheese * Soggy fries * Crabcake aioli too sweet * Not enough servers to handle the demand in the restaurant, and we've noticed some turnover, too   I appreciate that NYBS offers reasonably priced specials and beverages, but their food quality has declined significantly since we first started eating there.  The only things we still enjoy are the steak flight, wings, and gouda and bacon macaroni and cheese.  It pains me to say this, but we are done. The decline in food quality and inattentive service have removed this restaurant from our rotation.

    My husband and I's favorite date night restaurant! The space is so cool - you are free to browse…read morearound and look at their groceries, pre-made foods, and deli case. They're PACKED on Wednesday nights because it's wine night so if you're coming for just food I would avoid Wednesdays. Their servers are all so friendly and great at making recommendations. I've liked everything I've ordered here except for Salmon -- so I would just stick to steak in the future. Even their coleslaw is amazing! We've come several times and have always been pleased. Prices are great, it's nice to be able to go somewhere for a nice steak but it's still in a casual environment.
