#3. Roast Beef and Turkey Sub
Korina J.

I haven't been here before. My husband said hey they have fresh Boar head meats so we went there today and had lunch. Just want to comment that if you want a side like a pickle which most sub places give you one it cost extra. I got a water and the #17 which is turkey and ham sub and my husband got the roast beef and turkey sub. I have to admit it was very good. Little pricey but what isn't now days . It was delicious!!

Mike's has been here since 1989, and this relic of a TV must have been here from the beginning

Mike's was abuzz with activity when I walked in at 12:30 on a Saturday, and they stayed busy the entire time I was there. College students were coming and going in droves. The food is not cheap here, and for a moment I wondered how these college students could afford it. Certainly I could not have when I was at Florida State University All Those Years Ago (I miss you, George Harrison), but then it dawned on me: these are not ordinary college students--they are Elon students. And if their parents can afford the $54,000 per year Elon price tag, then they can afford to send their pampered child to Mike's Deli. Do I sound jealous? I'm really not. I just felt like saying Elon students are pampered. Let's get back to lunch. I ordered the Reuben, a Coney, a bowl of Cajun chicken gumbo, and a sweet tea. Reuben: Mike's makes a decent Reuben. They use Boar's Head corned beef, which is very good. Oddly, Lox Stock and Bagel also uses Boar's Head, but their sandwich is much more tender. The sauerkraut is good and not overpowering. The thousand island dressing was barely detectable. The bread was okay but could have been grilled more. Soup: pretty good soup with lots of flavors, but it could have been more spicy to match my expectations of Cajun. Coney: I just don't care for Boar's Head franks. They have an odd flavor that I have a hard time describing. Also, Mike's forgot my mustard and slaw. Sweet tea: just ok. Sweet enough and had good tea flavor but also left an odd aftertaste. Mike's is good, but there are just better places to get a Reuben or a hot dog.

We stopped in for lunch today, and came away with less than favorful feelings about the food here (at least the specific items we ordered), though the service was fast and efficient, and the place is kind of funky with the wall loaded with faux retro ads and posters. The Rueben was rather ordinary, with a smaller amount of both cheese and dressing than I've encountered in most area delis - simply ended up rather bland. This sandwich costs $6.49, on a plate (includes chips and a pickle spear) the cost goes to $7.49. Frankly, a few stale chips and an eight of a pickle for a $1 seems more than it was worth. The 2 dog plate special ($8.19 with 2 all beef Coney wieners) produced a great dog with kraut and mustard, but the second dog with mustard, chili, and onions was simply awful. The chili was without flavor, the onions were RED (a total no/no on a hot dog, imo) and were very strong (maybe old). And these were small sized wieners (no larger than the ones you get at Zack's a bit down the street for less than half the price). The price for a single dog is $2.79, goes to $2.99 for an all beef. Simply over-priced and under-sized. Can't really see coming back here. Too many other good choices close by, with better prices.

Deliciousness!! Turkey bacon w avocado!!! Oommmgggggg

Stopped by Drake's in Burlington last night around 9:30 PM with my nephew, and overall this was a…read morevery good experience. The food came out looking great. Everything was presented well, tasted good, and despite it being later in the evening, nothing about the meal or experience felt rushed or like we were getting the "end of the night" version of anything from them. Our server, Ty, was excellent. Professional, attentive, friendly, and simply good at her job. She stayed on top of everything without being too much, made sure we had what we needed, and helped make the entire experience enjoyable, which meant a lot to her since this was my nephew's first time here. The one area I'd improve is addressing the front door host area. Last night we stood there a bit longer than necessary, waiting for a hostess, before my nephew noticed the sign next to the stand telling guests to find their own seats. Once we saw it, no problem whatsoever. We grabbed a booth and carried on. BUT even better, if there isn't someone dedicated to the hostess stand later in the evening, a quick "Welcome in! Feel free to grab a seat anywhere" from someone nearby or working the bar (about 10-12 feet away from the front door) would immediately make the experience feel more intentional and welcoming. That's a relatively small issue, but it's also the difference between a very good (5-star) experience and a slightly lower one. Overall, good food, great presentation, and excellent service from Ty. She represented Drake's extremely well and absolutely deserves the recognition.

They have a range of appetizers, burgers, tacos, and even sushi! I was actually very impressed their side salad. My quesadilla was so good. It was huge. I had leftovers. My son loved his tots and chicken tenders. I had an adult beverage and it was pretty good. They were busy for the holiday. The service was a bit slow, but our waiter was very nice. If your group can't decide on where to eat, this is your best bet. I'm telling you, they have something for everyone.

The sandwich had honey-ham, salami, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo (I declined this), and Italian dressing on a French roll. It also comes with a side and I chose baked chips. Food was ready within 15 minutes, which was when it was estimated ready for pickup. The sandwich was pretty good! I would consider the taste to be similar to the Italian sub at Firehouse Subs - just this one being a few dollars more. I'd go back here again because I love supporting local businesses!

Even asked the register girl if she preferred we take it to go- she said it was fine to dine in. We sat down and as this mgr lady was putting other guests food in the window, she yelled to the cashier "if anyone else comes in tell them the kitchen is closed, should have been 20 mins ago"(which would have been an hour before closing time lol) and looked right at us. Super unprofessional comment- and icing on the cake... when our food was ready and my husband went to the counter to pick it up, the other lady in the kitchen said "I should have just packed that one to go". If you want to be done at 2:30- then don't have your business hours open till 3. Do yourself a favor and walk 20 feet down the sidewalk to Mikes Deli- same boards head meat and no one will talk shit about you in front of your face.
